UK bank card reader/pin sentry
Some banks use unique versions, others a common platform. A couple I have used are Nationwide which is a common one and either HSBC or First Direct (can't quite remember) which was unique.

7s and Tops
Not for me - just giving some of the background to the changes. Could be an issue for Central Group who have ~ 200 new shops to run.

7s and Tops
Not a 711 deal, but Family Mart's franchise agreement with Central Group ended a couple of months ago and they never renewed it. Central's take over results in the Top's branding.

Questioning your seemingly erroneous comment about the airports connectivity.

Bangkok to Manchester airport change in Dubai easy or needs a lot of time
Emirates, who the OP hopes to fly with, operate out of Terminal 3 only. The underground train you refer to is probably the one connecting Concourses A and B which are part of Terminal 3, along with Concourse C, which is walkable from Concourse B. Departures and arrivals can be from any of the 3 Concourses.

Overseas when non-O to be renewed
Maneerat at the same cost as a "regular" extension. I never had it done, but it was offered when we discussed it. My renewal falls at a time of year I usually travel so I have to juggle things a bit to keep things right. Maneerat offered this proactively as if was an everyday occurrence for them.

Overseas when non-O to be renewed
Usually ~ 24 hours after dropping it off. An agent offered the service to me but that doesn't preclude it being offered direct from immigration. OP can always ask.

Overseas when non-O to be renewed
I have been offered 90 at my last two renewals (via agent).

Overseas when non-O to be renewed
Dependant on where you're based you may be able to do it up to 90 days early, so January/February befoe you travel might be possible. Jomtien is one office said to be willing to do it this early.

Internet connection
OP could also try forgetting the network from the wifi settings pages similar to above. Re-connecting from scratch may straighten out whatever is causing the glitch.

Bangkok bank internet banking --- adding a new 3rd party funds recipient.
For a recent one of mine it was characters 5,6 and 7 of 9 which were designated as "x" in the SMS. The same layout could be seen on the iBanking screen eg 1234xxx89 so although not explicit it wasn't hard to work out what was required.

Internet connection
It shoud have brought you to a login page where you are required to enter the username and password from the sticker (admin and 1C45). There might be a capcha required too. Entering those gets you into the router setup pages. You can ignore most of these but look for Wifi, then maybe advanced and you should see a field for the wifi password (there may be 2 sets of data, one each for 2.4 and 5 Ghz operation. Updating the password would be done here. You say you don't want to do this, but if you or your other family members cannot remember the current password you may have no choice.

LG air conditioner remote receiver panel.
Protective coating on the circuit board that has degraded with time and heat, although it shouldn't end up in that mess.

Hip replacement and airports
I've got a lot of metal in my leg and since getting it have very seldom set off the detectors. I believe it's down to titanium not being magnetic, which would also acount for the stainless steel comment above. I asked my doctor at the time if there was something he could give me to ease the way at security but his response was no, you just have to let them do their job.

Internet Banking On Your PC/Tablet Is Still Available at Bangkok Bank
It's not an app. It's their web interface. The "i" in ibanking is for internet, or web based. The "m" in mbanking is for mobile, or app based.
