2496 to 2690 Mhz

Yes, so that's the frequency range worldwide.

So, if you are Samsung, Apple, OPPO etc. you can manufacture your smartphone 5G chipset to communicate within this range. 

If America is using the 2500 Mhz frequency and Thailand is on 2600 MHz frequency there's a mismatch. 

So, your American phones 5G will not function in Thailand, it will revert back to the 4G signal

I'm new to these Lazada flash sale things, can somebody explain how the prices work. 

 

E.g. I'm interested in buying this Philips Air Fryer... 

 

 

... But don't understand how I can get it for the 3,333 price... 

 

 

On other shop pages like Lenovo, I can see where I can claim various vouchers & on the main Lazada screen there was (gone now) vouchers for 10% off but can't understand how you can get from the 4,389 price (which is basically the everyday price they sell it for minus the packaging) to 3,333

 

 

Thanks

It's on sale now, spendaway

n41, would be expected to be the same everywhere. 

 

TD 2500 is the 5G Band name; the operating bands from 2496 to 2690 MHz

 

Hence the article describing 2600 MHz(n41).

Is it different 5G frequency bands used here, compared to the States?

Yes, n41 frequencies are different in countries

But I did go with my plan. Despite your edited quote from me.

Sorry about that, I just looked at the original comment, it was not from you. 

I've got no idea how that happened. 

I did something strange, my fat fingers on this small phone

I was always quite happy with lazada, i still am for the most part. However

I'm a complainer and always liked lazadas email support but this has disappeared, just a BOT now, stupid idea, it sends you in a loop. 

So I'm more careful what I buy making sure I pay by credit card, Kasikorn bank has been very helpful getting refunds for me in the past. 

eg. I bought 2 identical refrigerators for 2 identical condos I bought a few years back, the vendor sent me the one I ordered and another which was larger in size (useless), the vendor would not change for the same I originally ordered. I went to the Kasikorn customer service at my local branch filled out the the forms and a few weeks later my money was refunded. 

BTW, I still have the fridge I didn't want so now have a nice beer fridge outside, my friends that come see me think it's great, helping themselves to my beers if I'm not home. 

Does anyone have an email address for lazada complaints?

do you think they are happier back there

I can't see them being happier. 

Before covid I'd have to fly once a month for work.

Leaving Pattaya was the saddest day for me, leaving my family, on the way to the airport seeing the sexy chicks riding their scooters, walking the streets, bloody beautiful. 

It was much different when I came back to Pattaya, so happy

????

I feel for the bank manager, known her for nearly 20 years, back then she was an assistant manager Pattaya Tai branch, so very helpful. 

She is such a hard worker and has helped me with many issues, trying so hard to get items I wasn't entitled to because of my visa status (Working offshore I traveled to Thailand on a tourist visa, working on a 28/28 rotation so tourist visa all I needed), such as credit cards, including spouse, foreign currency account, bank safety box etc., every Christmas/New year she would always give me a little gift.

I hope she doesn't suffer because of this 1 bad egg (criminal) 

Sadly this theft, fraudulent behavior issue could happen to any branch, any bank.

We tip hairdressers in Australia ? 

The pizza delivery guy yes, but never knew people tip hairdressers.

I've tipped after a hair cut

I've probably been americanized. 

Working for American companies for decades it's probably got me tipping unnecessarily. 

I reckon the discussion should be around FORCED tipping. 

This is rediculous, venues like Hard Rock etc, American businesses adding a tip on your bill. 

I was working in Malaysia many years ago and the Hard Rock in KL was my local, Friday, Saturday nights service was poor but still had to pay tips. 

Bloody rude

Australia it isn't normal to tip in a restaurant or anywhere 

 

Certainly, in Thailand: Thais don't tip - there simply isn't a tipping culture here.

Yes, you are correct, we don't generally tip in Australia, hairdressers etc yes a tip. 

Our wages are high enough for people to live survive, live comfortably. 

In some countries wages are very low, the staff can only survive on tips. 

Try another branch 

Pointless getting yourself worked up, I find Thai banks to be helpful. 

I dred doing any banking back in Oz, horrible service.
