  1. The channel thing as mentioned and therefore the need to pair it up with a specific spec of router to get the best use, and I don't think it is an AIS product which is my first choice for SIM. I can see the website in English, but don't see the deal you mention. Can you point me in the right direction, and also explain the reference to having a Thai partner?
  2. I hope I've got the terminology correct and I've read a fair bit in here about them, but by no means confident about what I should be looking for. I'm moving location shortly and it apppears this will be the most efficient method of connecting my laptop and TV stick to the internet in my new digs. The new place has a good signal on the AIS SIM in my phone, so I'm tempted to go straight to AIS rather than experiment with other suppliers. Good idea or not? If anyone keeps an eye on Lazada or wherever, can you tell me the current goto SIM package considering I'm a low volume (I think) user? Laptop browsing several hours a day (occcasional youtube vid), TV usually on for a similar amount of time with occasional sport watching, no torrents. Finally, any recommendations on the portable hotspot required? Maybe more important, anything to really avoid? I've read about issues with the Thunder SIM and it's unique hotspot requirements and although I don't think they'll affect me, is there anything similar waiting to catch me out? Thanks all.
  3. A classic indication of money laundering is depositing money into accounts not in your name, and starting with lower amounts to build up a pattern before increasing them over time. The bank did well to act as they did.
  4. It's not my claim, just contributing to the conversation. I did check the ONS but couldn't find the breakdown, so please provide a link if you have it. I did subsequently find the link to homicides, hence my query to cleopatra2 whose numbers roughly tie up with those of all homicides, which includes murder and manslaughter. Granted the figures only mention those on probation, not necessarily those convicted of murder but I've since found the original article mentioned by the Bing thingy (link below) and it refers to the figures being derived from so it's not as if they were on probation for minor offences. All of this means the figures given originally appear credible IMO. Here's the original article I found so please direct your incredulity to the publishers (Yahoo News - fairly credible source I think) rather than someone who at least tried to verify the point being discussed with no pre-conceived bias either way. Thank you. https://uk.news.yahoo.com/revealed-shocking-number-of-murders-committed-by-prisoners-on-probation-153200604.html
  5. Don't shoot the messenger ???? Would your homicide figure include manslaughter as well as murder which is what I asked Bing?
  6. Bing's chat bot thingy appears to agree with it, at least up until 2020..
  7. As you say, with the addition of clicking on the little magnifying glass icon before the previous data is pulled into the form.
  8. I think BritScot may be referring to the Canadian Government freezing the bank accounts of participants in the truckers' protests last year? https://www.newsweek.com/banks-have-begun-freezing-accounts-linked-trucker-protest-1680649
  9. Mr T Taxi. Used many times personally and as recently as Wednesday by a mate. https://mrtpattayataxi.com/
  10. Word of mouth. A mate had been using this type and I bought the same.
  11. No, I'm pretty sure there are different systems as many places I have been unable to read the supplied fob/card. A succesful read shows up on the device.
  12. What it showed previously is immaterial. What it is showing now is the bank note rates and as they don't want these notes they are offering the low rate you noticed. If you want a calculator for the rate you get on a bank transfer you'll need to look elsewhere.
