  1. About time the reneging embassies provided the service all the others do! Confidentiality and liability never worried the others. Maybe the 3 in question were unable to agree how to share the fee???
  2. Surprised they can afford the air fares which are still double pre pandemic!
  3. Freezing the bag will kill the eggs before they hatch
  4. Access their website and select e service. You'll need your last bill for meter Nos. Like you I have never been able to get their app to work
  5. Used Wise for nearly 10 yrs and never had a transfer in seconds! I always plan for a next day receipt also allowing for w/e and holidays . I think Thai banks slow things down.
  6. For a few days now we can't book a home food delivery from Pattaya and Jomtien with Grab. It started on the fireworks festival and has not resumed. Usually several houses in our village get deliveries every evening and now we don't see any. Possibly the riders are restricting themselves to central Pattaya so they can get more deliveries in and earn more money? Anyone else experiencing this problem? We try at least 3 restaurants and eventually give up!
  7. Ford have a nasty habit of ducking responsibility and the maintenance of older models to try to get you to upgrade just like iPhone. Also Ford have far to many recalls for faults. Stick with your Toyota!
  8. I'm watching on CCtv5+ courtesy of CCP on Thipanee. Also on internet I have BBC via Express VPN. Doofootball on internet works although often freezing and it's fiddly trying to find an English commentary and I have to turn off the VPN
  9. You aren't locked in to an agent if you follow the financial rules in full and can prove it. I use the monthly FTT as evidence but my agent only wants to see my bankbook- no discount offered. With mobility problems I just can't manage the trips to the bank with covid queuing in the sun outside plus covid queuing outside and then inside Immigration exposing me to infection and considerable discomfort. With my agent I don't even have to go anywhere near Immigration!
  10. Yes as you will only get an extension till your passport runs out. I had to renew mine 9mths before it ran out to get the full 12mths extension.
  11. I've been picking games up on CCtv5+ courtesy of the CCP! But Express VPN plus BBC Iplayer gets me an English commentary
  12. Booked LHR-BKK-LHR Thai Inter in mid Jan for my sons. Looked everywhere but couldn't get less than 1000gbp. Something to do with an unnecessary bloody war between former USSR neighbours stirred up by a rogue KGB agent!
  13. Forget choosing your seats-we booked 3 in a row for our family and I was unceremoniously bumped from an aisle to a window seat on the other side of the plane because I found a supposedly sick man in my seat-never fly Eva again!
  14. I have the Wise bank account including the debit card in case my UK bank closes my account. Still do normal FX through Wise as they offer the lowest fee and highest exchange rate. Would only use my Wise debit card in emergency!
  15. BREXIT! All the outcomes predicted by Tory Brexiteers have failed to materialise! All the time and money spent on getting in then getting out wasted! Cameron May Johnson Truss and now Sunak all guilty of putting ambition before country. They didn't even have the nouse to stay in the free trade zone to avoid the NI problem and dissolution of the 'United' Kingdom! We need Starmer to commit to an early referendum on rejoining!
  16. Much more concerned that Tipmanee Pattaya has stopped showing EPL! Happily watching all EPL matches and suddenly they stopped showing them. Channels previously showing every game now showing soaps, badmington, ladies golf and other assorted rubbish. What's happened? EPL much better than World Cup!
  17. CDs don't work at all. Eventually pigeons will break through netting. If building unnocupied they will even break windows. Need to make them very uncomfortable. Asian cuckoos Koel will steal and replace their eggs. BB guns upset Thai Bhudists!
  18. All of a sudden Tipmanee Cable has stopped broadcasting the EPL? Have been watching their extensive coverage of live matches for several years so surprised their sports channels have now changed to minority sports and strange soaps? Anything to do with upcoming World Cup?
  19. Internal ac will leak if not cleaned every 6mths-pipe blocks and condensate cannot get away. Always check that condensate is dripping outside. 500bht to clean otherwise. Tenants responsibility as you are using the ac and it's your dust and dirt blocking the drainage channel.
  20. Decent agent only needs passport for 2days not 3weeks
  21. Use agent-Pattaya Klang Driving School next to DLT
