RAZZELL

I was paying something approaching 100k for top health and accident insurance during covid.

Painful but a necessity.

I am confused.  you wrote....."The last person to see Warney alive was a massage girl who visited his room."

 But According to the OP He hanged himself in police custody so I think the last person to see him alive would have been the police who locked him in his cell

I await your clarification to end my confusion

Referring to Shane Warne death.

International "fights" excellent!

Actually, the Thai consitution "suggests" these are rights, but then also severely limits them, so no, he's wrong.

 

And of course, in Thailand, some people have more rights than others, depending on where they are situated in the Thai social pyramid structure.

 

As regards the rights and liberties of the Thai people, in addition to the rights and
liberties as guaranteed specifically by the provisions of the Constitution, a person shall
enjoy the rights and liberties to perform any act which is not prohibited or restricted by
the Constitution or other laws, and shall be protected by the Constitution, insofar as the
exercise of such rights or liberties does not affect or endanger the security of the State
or public order or good morals, and does not violate the rights or liberties of other
persons.

"Rights" in Thailand are directly proportionate to the amount of money in your bank account!

Weird choice of words in this article, such as losses, trouble etc, 2 old boys renting apartments,  spending money in shops n restaurants etc etc , so they are contributing to the economy ,of course all that doesn't exonerate them but they luv LOS  ,I should grant them asylum tho 55

Exactly.

Yet we still have the "African Faction" in Lower Sukhumvit openly selling drugs?

Nothing worse than a grass.

Not like the crime of the century.

How are you buying it?

Bid them 30% less.

If you take the MRT to Kamphang Phet on the otherside of the road opposite the south entrance to Chatuchak Market is a newish mall with lots of old 'antique' stuff for sale. Outside the mall is the more junky stuff, better stuff is inside. Cant remember the name if the building (NOT JJ Mall) but cross over the road using the pedestrian bridge outside the MRT exit.

It's called Bangsue Junction.

A couple of good watch dealers on the ground floor.

OP is the font of all knowledge (via Google)

No you don't. Why do people post stuff that is untrue? Is 90% of the stuff posted here bollards (think I know that answer).

 

SMS messages do not need roaming enabled and that's how you get OTPs with BBL.

 

I control my BBL account almost exclusively from outside Thailand  to make local payments and OCCASIONALLY have to enter the SMS OTP  (to enter a new payee for example).

 

You don't need a VPN. Saying that you need to get a Thai mobile number registered at a LOCAL branch (at least I did)

 

As to international transfers, that is a completely different matter. Whether you are in or outside Thailand, it will depend on the BBL rules (and no doubt government rules).

 

Because (as my training as a bank employee for a bank in another country tells me) you will start to hit AML flags (or should do). Transfers of a certain amount and particularly REGULAR transfers should show up as red-flags. You will have some explaining to do as to where the money is coming from (or should do if it is an ethical bank).

Well Mr. Know-it-all it didn't work for me when I went back to the UK for 4 months!

Villa Market?

This place in Lat Krabang is very reasonably priced, each room is a small cabin with flat screen TV.  

 

Free airport shuttle, restaurant on-site, wifi, mini-mart, etc.  About 10 mins from BKK.

It's not bad and the food is nice in At Home restaurant. But personally I think 1300 or so is a bit strong.

https://suvarnabhumisuite.com/ is about the same money - has a very nice rooftop bar and there are plenty of places to eat and drink nearby, 72 Race & Bar, Warehouse 8 etc etc.

Only about 60-80 baht to the airport.

I'd go the day before and check into a hotel in Lat Krabang and have a few beers.

I think you might command more than that.

Don't know who to avoid, but for new properties Sansiri, Land & House, Perfect Property etc all seem to have a half decent reputation. Pruksa a bit cheaper/lesser build quality.

I find fazwaz a pain to use:

Hipflat a lot easier:

From looking over the last few years everything online is 20%+ over realistic prices.

I think Adam needs to lay off the sauce...in that video he said it was "March 3rd 2022!"

Still showing as 143 baht.

Have used Wise for a few years and Remitly.

Nothing surprises me in Thailand.

Have also had a bill padded in SC by outrageous amounts.
