    My new iPhone doesn't have a SIM card slot. My previous iPhone had a SIM card slot and an internal eSIM. I'm in the United States and I transferred my US phone number from the eSIM on my old iPhone to an eSIM on my new iPhone. Instead of a SIM card slot, Apple has added a second eSIM which means that when I travel to Thailand for vacation for a month, I'll need to use the second eSIM for whatever Thai mobile phone service I decide to use. My understanding is that AIS, dtac, and TrueMove H all support at least one eSIM activation method. I'd like to know if anyone has ever activated a monthly Thai mobile phone plan for an eSIM instead of using a physical SIM card which my iPhone doesn't support. If so, what carrier and plan did you choose?

    There is no issue and no difficulty. Just rock up to the network shop of your choice, activate an eSIM with them, top up your account with the required amount(perhaps 200 baht) and then tap in the USSD code on your phone's keypad to apply the package of your choice. Currently, 200 baht gets you unlimited data at up to 15 Mbps with unlimited voice calls. Just top up by 200 baht prior to the renewal date 30 days later if you want to continue with the package.

    The network is up to you. 

    You can choose a monthly package using my method or buy a long term pack from DTAC as illustrated by BaanOz.

    If you are using the 65K monthly deposit option for one year extension of stay via retirement, then you need to have 12 monthly deposits on time and with the proper FTT coding. 

     

    One screw up and you could lose your one year extension at your local immigration office.

     

    Having confidence that your 12 monthly extension deposits will be copacetic is another way to look at value. So I will stick with SWIFT even though exchange rate may be better with WISE.

    Understood. Apparently they have a mechanism for showing the correct coding, but I understand your reluctance.

    too low in general for the base or that level of building. if you need around 4-8k look at a place like nirun condos.

     

    Nice try ???? 

    If it were too low, there would not be advertisements showing that price. But there are.

    That level of building? Is it a high level?

    Seems more like a dormitory than a serious place to live. Tiny and inexpensively appointed rooms.

    That's perhaps how they have managed to slip through the cracks. They list just two products, but hidden within the links are the brick week and perhaps GC.

    In addition, perhaps you can learn to post links without any additional tracking ????

    A car at 100kph travels 83m in 3 secs. If you only check traffic once 6 seconds ago thats 166m. Thats high risk walking.

     

    You should allow a 200m gap for traffic at speed at the very least. I would wait for a 400m gap.

     

    Why don't you stop posting rubbish?! If everyone did everything perfectly, then there would not ever be any issues.

    It's not a perfect world. The car driver should have seen him and either slowed down or steered around him.

    The driver did neither. meaning that he was not paying attention to what was in front of him for quite a few seconds. 

    Walker did what was normal. Check and walk, expecting that any approaching driver would be able to see him.

    Never mind, it's done. Move on.

     

    Important to make things clear for anyone else reading the thread. Otherwise a new reader might actually believe they are only paying AU$32.

    So whilst it seems as if I am addressing you, I'm not really, as I know that the money means less to you than the thought of having to deal with ANZ.

    The post is for information that will make sense to the reader.

    You are correct, I was a tad agitated when I read that ANZ charged 3% for overseas transactions, it wasn't specified that this was for credit cards, but am happy to pay $30 for a $200K transfer. However, my opinion of ANZ hasn't changed. and I will be transferring the balance in the next couple of weeks.

    You are happy to trick yourself into thinking that you are only paying AU$32 for a transfer. In fact you are paying closer to AU$4600 for the transfer of AU$320,000.

    There is plenty of perfectly good weed available on shopee (for example) and you don't need to spend 600bt / g  to  get stoned  try these guys  https://shopee.co.th/sx948sdmm9?categoryId=100001&itemId=18742480405        I  & others have  bought from here and its always got me stoned, cheap too here's another  https://shopee.co.th/อัดแท่งฟรอยทอง-ขีด450-หอม-เหนียว-i.501271347.21444875891?xptdk=e2ca57f8-133d-4afc-b751-37c9332ed20e

     

     your 600bt will go 10 x   further and you will get stoned             not sure what you mean with your final paragraph but you don't have to get stoned every day  if you don't want to

    Seems posting Shopee links is a kiss of death to them.

    alright, we don't know the alleged Chinese gangster's name but the name of the owner of the room along with private information about two of his nephews was worth throwing into the public ... 

    Actually, we do.

    One has been arrested at the Natcha Housing Estate and there is a warrant out for three others.

    Seems her story had some truth in it.

    That's pretty much it. I have already been through a month of stress trying to get the ANZ to reimburse me because on my last transaction they sent the money in Baht instead of Aussie Dollars as I specified. They are total a-holes to deal with and I just want all of my funds out and have no more to do with them. Ever.

     

    Don't rush, take a look at some of the other players in the market: https://www.currencyfair.com/fivefreetransfers/

     

    CurrencyFair claim 7,879,360 baht for AU$320,000.
