  1. Pick a number...any number Or just use a randomiser
  2. You must keep a minimum of at least 2000 THB in BKK Bank to keep it active. I transfer via Wise monthly and takes 7 seconds to arrive....but I've never had a transfer bounce. I've been using them for 8 or so years (previously OFX.com). I've had a few delays where it's taken a couple of days and I've noticed a pattern that this only happens if the THB weakens since I strike the deal....I think Wise hold onto the money to see if they can recover and not lose on the FX rate.
  3. I booked with Dr Amy (Vachiraporn Sujaritwanichpong) at Chiang Mai Ram Skin Clinic yesterday and the first available appointment is 8th September. Although she had ONE appointment slot (cancellation) this coming Friday 8th Aug in the morning which I couldn't make. She will be absent for a 2 week holiday during the last 2 weeks in August.
  4. 1) so the government is now supporting 'dual pricing' in a roundabout way 2) I can just imagine the amount of dirty money coming in via this 'washing' option 3) taxation of ferrangs is still on the cards though
  5. Nitrous Oxide is not banned nor illegal in Vietnam. Balloons are available in 20% of bars in Da Nang and cost 100 k vnd (75 thb). Highly addictive and the buzz appears to last just a few minutes. I've watched people turn from normal into a mong like state hanging off their chairs, no conversation, falling asleep and to me it looks like their night is ruined....but they like it. So hey ho.
  6. Maybe some of us live here because of it??
  7. Prison population means that they've been 1) caught 2) enough evidence 3) will the victim stand up to court 4) judged guilty 5) not a fine and slap on wrist So these stats are biased
  8. They did to me in Australia (yes way back, unsure about now) and did in Vietnam until 01/01/2025
  9. Be polite and smile, then explain the situation you're facing and ask the IO what they suggest you should have done, ask them to write it down for you......I'm certain that will cause them to pick-up the Outward stamp. Good luck
  10. They have to use the boxes and boxes of multi-duplicate paperwork somehow. I must be on at least box 8 just for my dealings with them!
  11. This is why I now live in Thailand.
  12. I'm keen to find out how it goes because I need to get one next week. I'm hoping for the 500 thb expedited route too.
  13. But nothing has improved, Vietnam Internet is so poor compared to neighbouring countries. They blame that the undersea cable keeps breaking due to Chinese fisherman boats and sharks but I honestly think that it's the Government Firewall slowing it down ! I pay for 300/300 Viettel connection and I consider myself fortunate if I hit 200/75 on speed checks.
  14. It works for me too both with and without 1.1.1.1 active
  15. BKK has domestic flights too! And I always arrange a 900 baht taxi ride in advance. 2000 baht is criminal to start with.
