Hi, I just called the 3BB Service Center and explained my situation. Here is what I have been told: If you want International Internet for streaming, we only have one option and that is fiber optic cable with 200 MB down  and that costs you 1'498 Baht/month. So, you guys all have 200 MB down? I sincerely doubt that.

Dario I have AIS Super Fibre 200/100, however i can only get that speed in Thailand, my international speed test results show between 80-100 download and 40-50 upload. But as i explained to you before the latency speed is the most important element for streaming, if you have high latency speed then you will get buffering no matter what your download capability.

Don't blame Farang box because you will have problem with every service, first of all because you have TOT connection and secondly because you have no idea about how these things work.

This is exactly what I told "Dario" as well, TOT is useless for international streaming. Have had Farangbox nearly a year now with AIS super fibre and virtualy no issues.

The most pertinent question is not price but wether it has a playback option.

With the time difference to europe or the us you will end up watching awful tv if it only has a live option.

yes they do have catch-up on most UK channels.

Thank you very much! I have sent him a message via this email address. Stupid I didn't look for that address...

Are you happy with the TV programs you can get? And how is the quality?

Try their 24 hour free trail, as i said before once i upgrade my isp from TOT to AIS quality is excellent

I asked for a free trial via his LINE account about 2 months ago. Several times He never answered. The only contact with this 1 man show is via his LINE account but it seems dead now. He doesn't give a phone number and he doesn't disclose where he lives. Raises red flags for me.

Try using the email link below, I always get timely response, they are based in Hong Kong

Have been using Farangbox in both Thailand and overseas for nearly 1 year now, excellent service, channel selection and price. Only issue I had in Thailand was with my TOT  internet their international download speed and latency is useless even though I had the top package, hence I had constant freezing. Farangbox needs a pretty good internet connection with download speed around 15 Mbps so after doing some research I changed my ISP to AIS and subscribed to their 200 Mbps download / 100 Mbps upload package, never had any problem since.

If she is Yingluck, shame on the British authorities.

Just try to get a visum for your wife or girlfriend, even for a short visit.

But I presume money has spoken.

 

Shame on the British Authorities for what??????

And no problem whatsoever getting a UK visa if you satisfy the criteria, which is not difficult for the majority of applications

In Singapore noodles at the airport cost how much ? I would imagine 1000 baht . 

 

and you would probably get a meal voucher to cover that cost

I've read about things like this in the past. The puzzling thing about it is that everyone pays for every meal they eat, every day.

 

Lets say you pay for and eat 3 meals every day of your life right up until the point where you arrive at an airport, your check in and find that you have a delayed flight.

 

Why should you suddenly stop paying for your own food at this point ?

 

They give a discount voucher which probably covers the inflated airport prices but you're still responsible for feeding yourself regardless of your flight status.

 

This guy is just another dummy.

 

 

He got 500 Baht to spend on meals over a 24 hr period in an airport...............totally agree with him having a rant.

Yes and no!

Those passengers over 70 years of age may use the premium services, as can holders of BOI work permits. Thai fast track service (left hand side of the main immigration halls) do not use the priority pass card.

The poster stated that you can show BC ticket and go through premium lane (70+ and BOI can go through on any ticket) which is incorrect in respect of the premium lanes used by non Thai Airways BC/FC passengers.

If you are not given a Priority Pass you can still show your business class seat ticket and use the immigration priority lane. Usually there's less than a handful of people at immigration priority lane whereas normal immigration queue can be 20 to 45 minutes queue. So do you need to pay for VIP service? Not in my opinion.

Priority lane is a premium service that has to be paid for by the airlines and unless you have a "Fastrack Pass" you will rejected. If it was possible to just show BC ticket then their would not be any reason to issue a "Fastrack Pass".

Whats this got to do with immigration?

And while you think of an answer, check how many people have had the stuff confiscated at the airport, fined heavily and/or arrested.

Jeez!

 

None

The actual law forbids the import of these contraptions.  Doesn 't matter whether tax was paid anywhere else. This is NOT part of personal goods but a restricted item like cigarettes, alcohol etc etc.  How many brain cells do you own,  or are the ones you have,  borrowed?

Grow up and do your research before you start spouting off with your stupid comments and derogatory remarks. Maybe you can start with looking up the definition of "import"!!! Then you can follow this by showing me the actual law that states they cannot be used, although I seriously doubt you can do that.

Read the police statement again:

 

How can you use an e-cigarette for personal use without being in possession of it??

 

 

Jeez, some people just can't get it, tax and duty is applied to goods imported in to Thailand, there is no tax due on personal items valued less than B10,000. As for your police website statement since when did the police make the laws in Thailand? This is again another case that smacks of the police not understanding the actual law or manipulating it to their own end. Can you provide a link to this so called police website?

Directly from a police website:

 

 

I believe it is you that needs to keep up, we are not debating the law on importation it's a given that it is illegal. We are talking about personal use of an Ecig that was bought legitimately outside of Thailand. Show me a law that states the personal use of an Ecig is illegal.

So it was a miracle that suddenly made it appear in Thailand?

Years ago in UK I had two derringer pistols that my grand-dad had owned. If I had been caught using them I could have used your defence strategy.

Sorry officer, they're just for my own use.

Firstly there are no such things as miracles, and the only pertinent thing that appeared was the 2014 law that banned the importation of Ecigs and related paraphernalia for resale or distribution.

There has never been any law which prohibits the personal use of Ecigs. It is just misinterpretation and scaremongering by certain individuals on blog sites such as this.

And no you could not use an excuse for using your pistol in the UK as there is a law against such use

See one of my previous posts where I stated ' not yet'.

I could expand your reasoning to cover a multitude of illegal items.

Driving a top end car that has been illegaly imported and no tax paid is one. No law states I can't drive it but the law says it's illegal for me to have it.

again you're waffling..........of course it's bloody illegal if its been illegally imported. But I am not importing any Ecig. I am using it personally.

4 minutes ago, overherebc said:

Owning an E cig is illegal because they officially cannot be imported. An E cig where it exist in Thailand will not have had tax levied on it so it is in fact an illegal item.

Doesn't matter if you have an official receipt from your own country showing it was tax paid there. 

The reasons for banning import have done to death on TV etc etc.

If you feel it's ok for you to sit on a no-smoking beach and vape then go ahead, no-one on here is saying it's not up to you.

Just don't think that any of your arguements, ie, show me the law, will stand up against the non smokers around you or the Thai official who decides to slap a 2000 baht or worse fine on you.

now your just waffling..........we're not talking about importing or selling, we're talking about personal use. Show me one instance where someone has been fined for using an Ecig.

Nothing has to be official to be actually illegal in LOS. If they say it's illegal it is.

That's why every immigration office in Thailand is able to invent different requirements to every other immigration office.

If who says it's illegal?

Nah. You google it yourself.

done that and absolutely nothing official can be found.
