What bank is mentioned in the Topic title?

 

But it’s Bangkok Bank

Celsius was not the OP and mentioned his post might be thought of as "hijacking" so I hoped for some clarification as a I am too with BBL but have seen no such warning in the app.

Found something

 

1124 is a 1.1.2 type of residential power user who receives 22-33 kV in voltage.

compare that with “normal” 

 

1125 is a 1.1.2-volt type residential home light user who receives 380/230 volts.

 

So you receive a lot more power then normal households

 

edit: maybe @Crossy can explain the difference?

 

Interesting - my Type is 1124 too and I'm in a small condo with nothing to note of more power usage than anyone else.

Btw not to hijack a thread, but I have received a notice on my app that starting June you will have to go to a branch and do a full face scan if you want to use online banking for all transactions over 50,000 baht

Which bank was this?

I have made sure that my phone with UK SIM is switched on. I want to experience this.

You won't unless your in the vicinity of a UK mobile phone mast.  It's not sent to individual numbers but to all (switched on) phones within the range of a transmitter when the warning signal is sent.

Going north from Big C Extra is Soi Paniad Chang where Apus Condominiums are.

Better known as Soi Yume.  Lots of accommodation, but for bars you're better off on/around Arunothai.

I am one of those arguing that it is the case.  In the document I linked earlier is stated the following, clearly the electronic cancellation happens a lot earlier (i.e. on application) than the physical cancellation.

Your quote includes the information that to be electronically cancelled "the cancel passport box is ticked on AMS".

Perhaps the box isn't ticked for applicants in Thailand?

And they do their job on Songkran

All my recent meter readings are shown at 00:00 on the bill and I don't think the computer knows about Songkran.  Smart meters were fitted here a while ago.

Looks to me like you have ~35 hours usage between the meter reading and your reading which if your 24 hour figure of 17 - 21 units is correct would be 25 - 30 units.  At 26 units actual it's where you would expect it to be.

14th April 00:00:00 is midnight at the end of the 13th/beginning of the 14th.

He seems to lack what we used to call, "interpersonal skills" . . . .

Lacks a lot more than that going by the nonsense he posts.

It's a common Covid vaccination side effect. If you are "vaccinated" against Covid and willing to accept that this could have caused it, feel free to PM me, I can provide you with a detox protocol.

Please publish it here.  We could all do with a laugh.

Normally, five days or so is all the post takes from UK to Bangkok, hardly an age.

The OP never mentioned Bangkok.  He's maybe one of the 60 odd million residents who live elsewhere in Thailand and experiences their often less than stellar postal delivery service.

Without activating roaming and keeping track of data roaming and cost, DTAC app was great while out of Thailand to get SMS for things like banking and calls, 

 

Recently I  can't seem to find it in google playstore anymore, I'd be weary of installing .apk of old version found on the internet elsewhere, is it still working?

SMS (and voice) does not require data roaming, only international network roaming, and it won't cost anything to receive SMSs.  Calls will cost however.

If this is the DTAC app it's still available on Playstore - check your Google account country setting as it may be geo-locked to Thailand based accounts.

I'm also in the process of transferring funds to buy property without knowing exactly which building. I've been making transfers via Wise which lets us select "Property purchase" in a dropdown list.

Note that these will only show up as international transfers in a couple of Thai banks.  There's a way to prove it at others but it's a bit convoluted.  Details are on Wise' website.

And I looked at their flights, and contrary to Airasia, it looked as if there was a maximum of 15kg for checked-in baggage.

Vietjet hold luggage options:

It appears AirAsia only offer their Fly-Thru service when transiting in KUL, DMK, CGK and DPS.  At all other transit points he would be required to exit to landside and check in again for his next flight, which rules him out of the 8 hour transit without visa exemption which must be done airside.

Bell Bus' days of no hotel pick-up or drop off due to Songkran.

So the 11th we are all still safe from any water throwing? Someone above said from 11th to 19th is the madness.

Not entirely safe as there's always outliers like those reported on Klang yesterday (9th), but in general it'll start to pick up from the 12th.

What are the current entry requirements for Thailand, entering in April 2023 as a tourist from Europe, staying 28 days?

Where in Europe?  Cyprus and Malta are visa on arrival.  Nationals of Croatia and some other countries in that area require a visa.  Most however are as previous replies.

This is the requirements from Timatic that the airline will see and should check against for a  Serbian:

What day does the water throwing start in Pattaya?

The 12th in my experience, and finishing on the 19th as mentioned above.

It's not begging for money.  It is giving people free content and asking them if they enjoyed it, or got some value from it, to consider leaving a small tip/donation.   

If you don't want to pay then don't.  

Creating content is a lot of work, even the rubbish stuff!

Different words but same end result.  Begging.

It's not a lot of work to film yourself doing nothing unusual for TikTok.
