100 villagers pay homage to termite mounds in the shape of breasts

Nice set! -
Cuz flip-flopping and changes happen here more often than not. I don't believe anything here until it actually happens...and even then still wary.

90 DAYS reporting
Skeptic7 replied to SCOTT FITZGERSLD's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Use the address registered with immigration and do it online (link posted by Ubonjoe above). Works brilliantly for most and can be done from anywhere within Thailand from 2 weeks prior and right up to the actual report date. A certain well respected member, by me anyway haha, @DrJack54 loves reporting by post, which seems just a tad anachronistic. -
Are Thailand’s ride-hailing drivers disappearing?
Skeptic7 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Predominantly use BOLT with an occasional GRAB. Haven't yet been unable to get a BOLT but sometimes wait times are long. If too long, I cancel and go for GRAB, which is usually readily available (at a higher price of course). -

Aircon and fan before lights out, then aircon off and only fan. When waking during the night will turn the air con on for 5 or 10 minutes, then off again with only fan. This is pretty much what I do in the daytime too, air con on and off as needed.

A new 90 day requirement?
Skeptic7 replied to Bangkok Barry's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Totally agree with and get all of your above. All for everyone doing what and how they prefer...but why not, as I previously suggested, just give the NEW online site a try. (Others have posted the link.) If it fails, then you can just do the usual walk in. I read others complaining initially too and fully expected a "Typically Thailand" failure. However, was pleasantly surprised with APPROVAL next day (this time same day). Also, if you travel alot as I do, can do online from anywhere in Thailand, so don't have to plan around that. Always good to have options. ???? -

Should get 20 to Life. Sadly he'll prob be out in 2-3 years. So little justice and concern here for Thai females. -
A new 90 day requirement?
Skeptic7 replied to Bangkok Barry's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Just give online a try. If it works...in the future go shopping MINUS the "convenient" immigration hassle. I can see Jomtien Immigration out my window. 5 minute walk. Only PP needed and don't even go inside as there's an outdoor collection area where a gal takes PP in and delivers back shortly. All very convenient, but why? No thanks. New online system works great for many/most and will even auto-fill all your info after initial approval. ???? -

Have used the new online 90-day reporting 3 times now flawlessly. Just yesterday, submitted @ 0604 and got Approval email @ 0829. Jomtien stepping up their game.

Why "temporary"? -
Opening. US mobile phone account while living in Thailand
Skeptic7 replied to burlap's topic in US & Canada Topics and Events
Good luck, but that said....thinking you are in a tough spot and possibly out of luck. Never had any success with major financial institutions sending OTP to VOIP such as Skype or Google Voice. These numbers are recognized as VOIP and rejected, in my experience. Also if you or someone were able to get you a US Sim Card, am pretty sure it would need to be activated in USA first before sending here. Not aware of being able to activate a US number abroad. And lastly....be certain to get a SIM card and plan that works globally. Some of the inexpensive plans/small companies are restricted to just the USA or North America. Please keep us posted if something works or how you solve this issue. -
Whatever was the outcome with your Pitta window strike? Did the bird survive? Or succumb?
