Google Translate has much improved over the years. It's quite good and best for free. While some avoid Google anything and everything for myriad reasons, I use Google everything for everything and find it all awesome. Search, Translate, Photos and especially Maps. Directions in Maps while walking or driving is fab and essential when navigating unfamiliar territory.

Mucho Bunko Day, as I like to say.

Happy ending! Great to hear. Knew they'd finally get it all sorted, as they ultimately did with mine. Good thread. Enjoy. ????

This could drive this nutter right back to crack. Hope so❗????????

Mike "Swindle" sues McCarthy The Inept. Mother Trucker❗ Faux News...Bannon The ????????...and the entire host of Clown Prince Trump and his ???? ???? parade now throwing rotten tomatoes at one another. As hilarious as they are pathetic.

Yes it matters (and should to everyone). No problem admitting such if convincingly and objectively shown to be incorrect with supporting evidence contrary to my current understanding. This is how science and the scientific method works. This was formerly called "learning"...and/or learning something new. Used to be a good thing. Nowadays...not so much.

It's the florist's son❗????

Not to mention the cooking and cleaning and shopping too❗

You should not pretend to be privy to others' experiences.

Don't think Bangkok Bank is the partner, but received my money only 1 day later. Formerly I used MoneyGram, which has a much lower fee ($1) and the same rates, so overall more baht in my account...but it always took a full week to receive my money. So a day or 2 or 3...a slight delay...still seems speedy and expedited comparto MoneyGram!

Anyone unaware of this obvious fact is willfully ignorant and part of this stupid and dangerous problem. Murdoch and his gaping team of a-holes should be held seriously accountable for intentionally lying about, well...almost everything. The credible ones all bailed out when it finally got too ???? ???? over-the-top insane.

Personally, I've had nothing but positive experiences at Jomtien Immigration. 90-day reports (prior to new online reporting) were quick and easy. Extension based on Retirement was very efficient, smooth and easy. Hopefully this continues. Cannot say the same for Chaeng Wattana when I lived in BKK. Everything there...from Residence Certificate to Change of Address to Retirement Extension...was jumping thru flaming hoops whilst climbing Mt. Everest and "baditude". Happy to be dealing with Chon Buri now.

Sure...possibility...so what? There's also a good chance of some much needed relief, thus the moniker "painkillers". Aren't pain relief and care primary functions of a hospital? And it's a certainty that she will be in, and remain in, great pain without any medication.

The abhorrent fact that they held this poor girl's pain hostage and as a bargaining tool for payment up front is off the charts cruel and inhumane. They wouldn't even give her any pain medication❓❗❓ Typically Thailand and just plain foul and disgusting.

Yesterday 15 Feb initiated a Wise transfer from USA ($3000USD) to THB (Bangkok Bank). Was informed the funds would arrive today, 16 Feb. Today I received this email... Sorry, we need more time to process your transfer of USD to THB. Unfortunately, the partner bank we use to process THB transfers is going to take a little longer to complete your payment. That means your transfer will arrive later than expected. It should now take 2 working days to be paid out. We’ll email you again when we’ve sent out your transfer. Sorry again for the wait. Thanks, The Wise Team

Don't know much about Mint, but you prob need some sort of International Plan from them. Certainly they couldn't give a flip where you live, as I see they have International services. However, your credit card company or issuing bank may care and cancel you if you don't maintain a USA mailing address. This could be a problem if you pay for Mint with a credit card.

Ha! Yes, but he did so in it's correct context...NONSENSE.

Best possible answer. I'm going with this! Seems more sensible now. ????

Can someone explain why this is even necessary❓ Why can't the passport holder just say they want it transferred and get it done? Meaning we just successfully secured a new passport and if we didn't want it transferred, we wouldn't eff'n ask for it❗Why would it be denied? Why do we need a special approval❓All that said, assuming it's the old guilty of something until the government says we're not, but really...what gives❓❗❓

Highly doubtful, unless he's a wanted man for serious crimes. Either way...couldn't care a lick. ???? ????

Depends on the length of the overstay and if you are just departing normally and not found out until reaching airport immigration. When surrendering at airport immigration when leaving Thailand: Overstay less than 90 Days = 500 Thai baht/day overstay fine (maximum 20,000 Thai baht) Overstay more than 90 Days = 1 year ban from Thailand and 20,000 Thai baht overstay fine Overstay more than 1 Year = 3 years ban from Thailand and 20,000 Thai baht overstay fine Overstay more than 3 Years = 5 years ban from Thailand and 20,000 baht overstay fine Overstay more than 5 Years = 10 years ban from Thailand and 20,000 baht overstay fine When caught while overstaying: Overstay of 1 day to 1 Year = 5 years ban from Thailand and 500 to 20,000 Thai baht overstay fine Overstay more than 1 Year = 10 years ban from Thailand and 20,000 Thai baht overstay fine

Bring a pocket full of coins and prepare for a trip to the copy shops downstairs.

Just another "Typically Thailand" greedy money grab. B300 is a subtle pittance hidden in the ticket price, but multiply it by 10 or 20 million entries per year and it's a nice ripe chunk of change for the takin' by by the corrupt and greedy fat in charge of this BS. Certainly won't be going towards improving or helping anything. B6,000,000,000/year = CHA-CHING❗????

He's ALWAYS done this, regardless of party or side. You either haven't been paying attention or are not much familiar with him.

Wrong about Maher. He got canceled Politically Incorrect for telling the truth and it "offended" some. Networks censor and change. Politics change. Parties change. Maher hasn't changed. His message is the same as always. He calls out everybody...left as well as right. Dem as well as Rep. Friend as well as foe. He may not always be correct but he and his views, opinions and politics haven't changed.
