Looks like it's not always that straightforward. I extended my stay and on the same day filed a 90-days (in person, having come from outside). I got the 90 days but with the remark that I needed to do a TM-30 again. No change of address, first time I got this remark.

Cabbages & Condoms is a very nice restaurant with nice outdoor seating, a genuine Thai menu and good service. I have been there many times, especially with visitors in view of their unique theme. Very much recommended. Not sure about typical Aussie bars, but Aussies seem to hang out everywhere. Very good jazz place (not really a bar) is the Living Room in Sheraton Sukhumvit. I beleive they also have jazz and jamming at Queeen B, soi 26.

We have our fiber internet with True and it includes a sim card for data, 10 GB per month. You can use it for phone calls but then need to pay extra. We pay THB 640,93 for the internet (500 Mbps up and down). I always use this card in my phone, since my phone card only has 1,5 GB.

And after nine months Mary gives birth to the baby. Congratulations Mary, what a lovely girl!

Our staff are very nice people. We give the three security staff and the two cleaners 500 baht each at New Year and Songkran. Their smiles are our priceless reward.

I tried twice and got rejected. Had to show up in person. High on my harassment top-ten.

Wonderful plan. Bangkok can use some more noise, pollution and safety issues.

Same here, but as far as I can tell I still get the discount. The price for my standard ride has not changed.

To verify whether it is the router, have you tried switching it off instead of distancing yourself?

CW can be very fussy. I used Citibank, taken over by UOB. Plenty balance all the time, but since there were two accounts and they were not prepared just to follow the balance in the monthly statements it was rejected. Thankfully I had a plan B, another account with another bank. I went back to UOB to have them state that both accounts belonged to me and were continuous, but I can't tell the result at CW, because they went with my plan B. Took me two days.

Wise takes from your wallet whatever currency is available and best deal.

Got rejected twice for this reason.

This year I had to appear three times in person. Once for a new passport, for which I have some understanding and twice for entering the country again, hard to understand how this is useful if you live at the same address for more than 10 years. I did not know about this and did not about online appointment, but since during Covid I went to the Pak Kret office once because I did not get a reply to my mailed application after more than six weeks and there was hardly any queue, I thought I would just go to CW and fix this. I arrived at 10.30 and queue number was 384. As said here the process was at 10 per hour, so that looked as if I would never have my turn. At the desk however they assured me I would be processed that day. Towards the end of the afternoon the speed went up. Then me and another person (both white hair) were taken out by the staff and got our 90 days. And I can confirm that an online appointment is served punctually. This still whole 90 days can do with a revamp.

I am mostly "under wifi". Outside I use it for e-mail, maps, low data kind of stuff. And I have neither Fakebook nor Instagram.

I have had True subscription for around 300 baht/month with 1,5 GB (more than enough for me) for over 10 years. Happy with their service, never had a problem, never had no signal.
