  1. I wonder why this story is not on any other news channels searches besides https://www.irrawaddy.com ? The international community should be appalled by this type of story?
  2. You were supposed to be gone a month. I too would be interested, from others, in feedback on state of Rama2 road as planning a ride there in a month. Last time I went Rama2 was awful.
  3. When you say Google you don't mean Google Bard which is their AI app and seems to be even more clueless than ChatGPT with its answer to me just now! ???? But Bing powered by AI was correct with latest news.
  4. Yes, I'd stay away from ChatGPT if I was YOU. ????
  5. They are shipping my order to Thailand now - shipping cost is 9USD. I have used them for reading glasses for several years and shipped to Thailand. Takes about 14 days from order to front door delivery. There was a slight delay during the pandemic.
  6. Another newbie wiring question about IBKR as I am trying to set it up. What's the best way to wire cash from IBKR USD to K-Bank THB account in Thailand? I was thinking of using IBKR to Wise then onto KBank which I have done, but I notice IBKR allows a direct link to K-Bank set up BUT only if I input a Correspondent Selection bank SWIFT code along with the K-Bank SWIFT code - which I don't know yet. Anyone know if this direct way works, should I ask bank or is it simpler/cheaper to keep using the two step Wise route where Wise takes care all the forex rates? Cheers
  7. I don't think there is any point in asking. When the news is absolutely nonsensical and probably written from home using AI it is all good and making money so cannot be criticized. Didn't someone write a book based on that back in 48?
  8. Yes thats why I want cheap because of damage as you describe. But I couldn't find lenses that cheap, best I found was around 90$ range, I ordered photo-chromatic for outdoors use, still far cheaper than the high street price around where I am.
  9. Thanks that is reassuring. I'll order and hope they work out for me.
  10. Just broken my existing progressive glasses I bought from a rather overpriced Thai chain shop, so wanted the same order online from Zenni who charge about a quarter the price. ** As I am not experienced can someone tell me if I got the prescription correctly input please? The first (Duna) image above is from Thai shop and works well for me. Below that is what I input on Zenni. The PD of 66 seems to be a carry over from some reading glasses I had from Zenni but the Duna card does not mention PD at all so I left it at 66 on Zenni. So did I get it all OK and I can go ahead with order? Thanks
  11. Isn't that the whole point of having this website?
  12. Why would anyone admit to that, unless they were a lunatic?
  13. The nonsense on this thread is astounding. Shingles only vaccine offering 90% effectiveness (Shingrix) is not even available in Thailand. Nearest place to get it is Singapore.
  14. My LG laptop has an Airplane mode function key on it.
  15. Mine issued at Sukhumvit 101 DL office has the English address incomplete. Whilst the Thai part is correct the English underneath is completely missing a Soi name so just includes the house number followed by sub district and district. Next to useless as a proof of address in English it seems.
  16. >Looking for something that doesnt exist ? Any points to threads initiated by a certain poster comes to mind.
  17. Thanks @Thailand J, your explanation has helped a lot. I can log into Citi from IBKR and set up a link as you say. Many thanks.
  18. I have just got my hands on a new IBKR account and setting up ways to Deposit and Withdraw using ACH there seems to be no way to call funds from my Citi account to IBKR using ACH? I can only use IBKR to deposit funds to Citi using ACH? Is this correct? How can I send from Citi to IBKR using ACH?
  19. Shouldn't it be up to the courts to decide and not TV Channel 7?
  20. Why is it when I read a new thread title like this and before I even check who penned it I know?
  21. I wasn't asking you specifically as I didn't know you have a car ???? I have a car also but I don't take it with me overseas and the last time I checked in a hotel overseas and rented a car from the airport to get there I needed a deposit for each for any damages or over use of the hotel mini bar etc. So a credit helped as a debit card could have no balance on it and won't be accepted and carrying cash is dangerous. Agree as stated above the interest fees are extreme on credit cards so I always pay it off as soon as.
  22. How do you pay the guarantee deposits at hotels or car rentals with a debit card?
  23. From subject title I thought this was about keyboard warriors signing onto this forum with another ID!
