Joe Biden, he's back and he's beautiful and a reminder there was once a great man and honorable President of the United States. Welcome his appraisal of the moronic destructive successor to the role of president. Oh, and F O to the preceding slaggers and those surely to come. <deleted> on!

While waiting Vonage to send new hardware replacement, I cast about for telephone service provider and went with NuaCom. Operating out of Ireland customer service called my Thai cell number to consult. I went with them, a pricey one month contract of U$58 got me software to install on cellphone and computer. And follow up customer support. It ain't pretty, the telephone pad for dialing/receiving and, overpriced but it does work. I could port my Vonage telephone over to NuaCom number, so able to receive incoming calls to Vonage number. New Vonage equipment should arrive before end of month and will then discontinue NuaCom, a useful if pricey emergency solution. And FYI, Vonage would only ship replacement equipment to a US address. Getting it from US to Thailand via Fedex was on me.

Never heard of it and name Fanytel never came up in searches for a voip provider, BUT google searching the name it showed up with detailed info and positive reviews. who knew.

The Vonage issued modem? device stopped working/went dark could not be reset/restarted. aka it died

Timely topic and hopefullly will solve a dilemma that seems to of come out of the quake. The VOIP hardware died. Have used Vonage for over 20 years, carrying the little modem and plugging in to a local internet supplied router in whatever country. Attach a telephone and using my US telephone number registered with Vonage - have used when in many countries worldwide. Excellent call quality - outgoing and incoming. So that was the good news, until now when the Vonage modem fried and need of a replacement. They only ship to a US address. Their support India based and despite offering them to ship to Thailand on my UPS or Fedex account - the ONLY solution - ship replacment modem to my US mailing address. Once delivered I have to ship from US to Thailand. With luck I'll have a new modem within a month. A long tale to say it's great service when all is working. Cusstomer support on the other hand, like so many Customer Supporst offered by businesses - totallly abysmal and as near to useless as possible. Thanks to others here for the recommends.

Strongly disagree with you. Democrats need his strength, political savvy and dignity befitting a President of USA. Easy to take cheap shots at Joe Biden. Embarassed for you.

Please show us ANYTHING that doesn't. Waiting...

The headline is answered prayers BUT not a word on adding escalators, elevators or extending or connecting existing elevated pathways. Worrying the street vendors about access is a minor factor, never been hindered myself, imho.

Finally a topic I can admire the post. Bangkok has changed in unfortunate ways viz the Bangkok that made me smile night and day when landing here to stay 10 years ago. Evolution is it? The overall result of the struggle to recover from Covid? Unknowable probably. My complaint is the congestion and overcrowding on the roads and public transportation which seems to be unmitigated and increasing. Trying to avoid it, on foot, makes the sometimes ridiculous shrines to overbuilt iron and the poor quality service of pedestrian crossings - climbing ladders without the relief of escalators or elevators. As if there was never a thought to the result of stimulating the success of attracting tourism and replacing a civil city with built up highrise buildings. That's my gripe.

Well, well a topic that brings out the right wing nut jobs in full force. Know nothing, spout bs, blame it on 'the left', the 'marxists, the democrats. A pity they all don't run back to their US criminal masters and stfu in Thailand.

Putin's hysterical rants sound exactly like his partner's, Donald Trump. They are taking on each others psychotic behaviour.

Sure thing, wacko. Try Putin - Sickening deaths daily. Fortunately Russian and North Koreans.

Hahaha the posts here by obvious moron Trump suckers? Please rofl
