    Baht bus prices

    Coke or Walking St? Or both? ????
  2. The USA should hang it's proverbial head in shame. As backasswards countries like Thailand and others are actually progressing on this issue The Christian Nationalist States of America continues to regress because hypocritical, far right-wingnuts and an unSupreme Court full of loonies whom place their ridiculous superstitious beliefs before The Constitution, which they affirmed to uphold.

    Baht bus prices

    I believe what you say and it makes sense, but think many/most will find the driver wants B20 past Central Pattaya Road. Not worth the ire of a songtaew driver. Found. that out a long time ago.

    Baht bus prices

    It's 10 baht from Jomtien (or anywhere in South Pattaya area) to Pattaya Klang (Central Pattaya Road). Go further and it's 20 baht. Last year during Covidiocy, it was only B10 to Pattaya Nua (North Pattaya Road). Some will claim B10 to Pattaya Nua, but just stick to this and you'll have no issues. It's worth the extra B10 and you definitely don't want a potential problem with an angry baht bus driver.
  5. That's great. Lucky you. Mine's been on the "Step 2" since 5 July and I've called them and emailed them to no avail and no answers. I'm totally underwhelmed with their service and this excruciatingly SLOW process. Regardless of why it wasn't completed in 2 to 4 weeks, as they claim...it is absolutely ridiculous and unacceptable that it's still under review after nearly 4 months.
  6. Just another day in Amazing Thailand.
  7. See, now you need to find yourself❗
  8. TG service sucks. Once the cabin crew cleans up the meal service, they disappear into the gallies never to be seen again. They serve all drinks in thimbles. Wouldn't quench a Quetzal's thirst or give a bee a buzz. Thai Smile cabin attendants much better...and it's the same company.
  9. Son shoulda taken Pa seriously when he said "I'll pop a cap in yo ass'‼️
  10. Old Timers need need their Yabba Dabba Too!
  11. Just wait for the Thai Customs Apologists. They'll tell you it should've been about $100 duty on your purchase. And that seems fair and justified to them. That it's your fault for "being lazy". ????
  12. Most people are quite unobservant. Most Thais are totally oblivious. Mai bpen rai.
  13. Thread not gonna get much action then❗
  14. Seems it should be fairly simple to open an online bank account from anywhere. Especially if it is with the same bank. Not a UK bank, but just opened a new Capital One account from here in Thailand the other day. Did need a US phone number for verification codes/1-time passwords, which I have for exactly this reason.
  15. "Naked women offered" Can't think of a better way to have women offered‼️ ????
  16. I'm a 4 minute walk from Jomtien Immigration and never go near the place unnecessarily. Why go near that place, or any place, if ya don't have to? With the new online 90-day, it's unnecessary for that task. Works great with same (or next) day approval. You'll love it.
  17. Ridiculous. The CC transactions are quicker and more convenient for everyone. People rummaging thru their pockets and handbags for their money and 7-11 staff having to go to the "change maker" to break even B100 bills takes much longer than the touch & go CC transaction. Haven't used cash in a 7 for going on 2 years. ????
  18. If correct, that is not only a ripoff, but blatantly greedy ripoff.
  19. Chances are you'll be paying out the ying-yang. Thai import duty is a ripoff. In 2020, sent a box of odds & ends and some clothes from the USA. FedEx put a default value of $100 for insurance purposes. Had to pay B3000 to Customs to take delivery of the parcel. The contents was all old stuff and no electronics. Total ripoff and would never do it again. Pls followup and let us know how much they ding you for.
  20. Well that would be a first, but I digress. Please enlighten us to "the truth", oh knowledgeable one. ????
  21. A nice addition to my "Patch" list yesterday. White-bellied Sea-Eagle soaring over. Brings the Jomtien Condo list up to 54.
