I pay cash for almost everything, ask for a receipt and write down what I spend every day. I like to keep track of where my money is spent. I got in a bit of a jam a few years ago with credit and there is no way I'm going to do that again. I need receipts. Having said that, I almost never go into 7-11. 😇

Hum. I set Skype up years and years go. Maybe I can change it first and WRITE IT down. ha Thanks.

We didn't. We called collect to our parents. 🤣🤣

Key words: aging infrastructure Phuket is building, building, building and not doing anything with the infrastructure. Infrastructure first! Then build. In my dreams, I guess.

So delete the Skype app and then reinstall? I already have it on my phone.

Thanks for your help. I'm a Mac person. Maybe Apple has something. I have enough credit for at least six months. So no rush, but I need to think about it. Thanks again.

Yikes. I guess I'll have to re-read all the comments on the various Skype strings to find a new calling app. So many choices. I just need to call my family in the USA once in a while and sometimes my credit card company or SSA. Something simple. What is simple? Thanks.

@ Ralf001 Thanks for the info. So after May I can use Teams for my Skype credit. But I read is that after my Skype credits are used up, I can't use Teams to call. Teams is not offering calling only chats? I thought I would be able to keep using Teams for calling, but now I guess I have to find another calling app? Is that true? A big bummer, that's for sure.

yes. My email. I deleted the Teams app and checked the Skype app for my ID, which was my email, then re-loaded the Teams app. No Skype portal only an option for chat. Is there a contact for Microsoft / Skype to send email or message? I have about $7 credit, which is a lot of calls to the US. Microsoft cheated me out of my old credits years ago when they took over. I'm hoping they won't cheat me again. Hope!

I installed Teams on my phone and cannot find the Skype Dial Pad or the Skype web portal. Has anyone found this access?

I never got one too.

What is wrong with these people? Phuket Phuket Phuket. I live in phuket. Phuket doesn’t need any more tourists. It needs a better infrastructure. Better roads. Mass transit. Traffic police. Control on developments. Better schooling. Better life quality for the local community. People are living in slums and the PM wants sustainability. Take Care Of Your People Mrs PM. They are living in substandard conditions.

The dive / tour operators collect the park fees in advance from the foreigners / Thai people on the trip. I've been on many dive trips up there and you pay the park fees in advance. I haven't been up there in a while, but back in the old days, once you got up to the Similans the liveaboard tour director would go onshore to the National Park headquarters and pay the fees. Therefore, there is some what "wiggle room" in the transaction.

That’s what I said. The drivers of the car. Luckily he didn’t hit a couple of motor bikes. Usually there are a lot on that road and intersection.

You are correct and you are probably one of the safe drivers. I'm not sure, but I think the engine in the new Ford Rangers are very strong and the owners in my housing estate drive fast, are irresponsible and have no regard to elderly, children, babies and pets. I actually had a Ford Ranger many many years ago. It was smaller, reliable and didn't go so fast. I'm pretty sure it was stick shift too. Not sure why (not you) these people have to speed and go so fast. usually BMW and Ford Ranger drivers, but a lot of others too. What I said was sort of a joke.
