  1. They never talk about the organization which will collect and disburse this slush fund. There are always vague references about insurance, hospital bills, coral reefs, but never anything in detail. If/when tourism returns this slush fund will be MASSIVE. It will likely end up like the Thai Elite program, or Thai Airways or the SRT, perpetually running in the red. https://aseannow.com/topic/464060-thailand-elite-card-closes-down-to-the-tunes-of-25-billion-baht/ Isn't that special. Permanent Secretary needs to order a larger safe for his home.
  2. Yes, of course, that's what I did. My point was the "required field" asterisk, which seems more of a suggestion even when omitted? With the old system I filed quite a few times just using my last name, no issues until my ~ 9th time when it was rejected for missing first and middle names. Go figure. Why not just require all fields?
  3. The best solution may be a separate device, like an Android Box, Firestick, Mi Stick, Google Chromecast. And there are VPN clients, from the usual suspects, for these devices. I prefer GCGTV, ~ 3,000-ish here. But the Firestick looks eminently moddable, perhaps with broader developer support.
  4. Two out of three ain't bad. You could also cast it from your phone. Sony TV make and model? Can you cast anything else to it? Ultimately it may not be possible to install and run natively on your TV.
  5. make, model? Your TV is on your LAN, wired or wifi? Your phone is on the same network? This TV supports casting natively? Go to Youtube on your phone, do you see this icon (below) at the top right of the video Press on it, see which devices are available. You can install and noodle with, the Google Home app. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.chromecast.app
  6. Yeah, the resulting TM.47 which is generated is certainly not suitable for in-person or mail-in submission. But we assume they're asking for the required information that they need.
  7. Have you successfully sideloaded APKs to this TV using this method before? If not maybe Allow App Installations from Unknown Sources Can you share the TV make and model? My best guess is that the APK is designed for a mobile phone, and not Android TV. I've run into this issue a bit, with Disney +/Hotstar. Once I found the Android TV APK it sideloaded using Downloader fine. There may not be an Android TV APK for this app. You're going to have drill down on the app, their forum, other sites, to see what platforms this app might work on. Not sure if this app supports casting, from a phone to a TV?
  8. Yeah, it's all a bit confusing...there are very few *Required fields, for example only the surname is required. And there have been reports here and on FB about rejections - many from CW - and then folks resubmitting making random changes and additions, when finally some mix seems to work. My read is you need the street number and street name so no building name, room number or number (assuming multiple buildings with one street number). No harm in resubmitting. 3. Fill in the information in english for notification of residence for more than 90 days and accept the conditions. (Space marked with * are required)
  9. French Citizen BKK-CDG Current Requirements French citizen - passport expires in 2028 Must leave by 2 March 2022 - no COVID extension possible; 400k in bank (for ext stay/marriage) not yet seasoned, only 15 days in, immigration not being accommodating, no possibilities of an agent. I'm helping remotely,with the language issues. Person is on the older side, and not at computer savvy. BKK-CDG on Thai Airways - ticketed Vaccination status: AZ + Pfizer with official hospital issued MoPH paper (Mor Prom not currently working) - Can anyone help with the current requirements? My research indicates: no test (PCR or antigen) required: Vaccinated citizen Proof of acceptable vaccination - is MoPH/Thai hospital-issued vaccination certificate EU Digital Passenger Locator Form (dPLF) - to be completed online Health Declaration Form (Word doc) - Statement of Honor Anything I'm missing?
  10. Try (after registering) here: https://tm47.immigration.go.th/tm47/#/login https://tm47.immigration.go.th/manual/IndexForeign.html using a browser on you phone or PC. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEO8sSAHbdM ^ hope this video is OK, scanned it quickly.
  11. Yes, for outgoing calls, texts and data usage. Not sure what point you're trying to make. An incoming text from thailand would be free for you. Well that's true if you're in thailand too. No charges for incoming calls and texts, no matter where they come from. But if you're roaming then you'll pay extra for incoming calls DTAC Call (WiFi Calling) simply extends your tariff from thailand to anywhere in the world where you have a WiFi signal, and DTAC Call enabled. You call a thai number you pay your plan number, say 1 baht/min, or minutes are deducted from your post-paid allotment. You send a text from Iceland on WiFi to thailand, 1 baht each. Someone in thailand sends you a text in Poland, you receive it for free. Someone in thailand calls you in Ireland, no cost to you. People in thailand calling or texting pay their normal in-thailand rates. There's a best-case solution for any application, but often people have multiple requirements, and budget constraints. Data is often the biggest challenge. You can buy a data SIM here, a good idea to get you started, until you can source a local SIM. No clue how all this helps the OP to pay his bill though?
  12. "Strict enforcement" What a laugh. Change batteries in temp check sensor. Refill sanitizer gel. Pull up that mask. There's no going back. Press on is the order of the day. They could off-loading corpses at BKK, Test&Go/thailand Pass will not be eliminated. In fact it will be further streamlined, no need mucking up the thai healthcare system with ferners testing positive on day 5.
  13. Yes. https://bank.codes/swift-code/united-kingdom/hbukgb4b/
  14. SMS does NOT require mobile data. SMS is a GSM feature/option. SMSes will be delivered with mobile data turned OFF. Just need a roaming signal, or WiFi calling.
  15. Cool website but purchasing seems limited? https://www.facebook.com/emeraldthaitea/ Shop in Bangkok EMERALD THAI TEA premium shop Address: 226 ถ.ประดิษฐ์มนูญธรรม เเขวงพลับพลา Wang Thonglang, Bangkok 10310 Hours: Closed ⋅ Opens 12PM Phone: 090 991 5444
  16. With BBL's Bualang mBanking mobile app one can pay a bill without an OTP. You can use a fingerprint or standing PIN code to enter this portion of the mobile app. I think the OP is trying to use the BBL iBanking web portal, which does require an SMS OTP to add a payee, or add a third-party transfer. After those are added one can make a transfer or payment without requiring an OTP.
  17. Or WiFi calling, if available. Turn Mobile Data to OFF, in the phone or with True, or both. Receiving an SMS from thailand would be FREE.
  18. TrueMove H does offer WiFi Calling, but I have no experience with it. I don't think it's widely used, may be limited to specific phones and hasn't been updated in five years. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eggdigital.femjo&hl=en&gl=US The DTAC version is reliable IME. True and DTAC are planning on merging this year. FWIW, you can run the Bualang mBanking app on multiple phones, it was a little tricky to set up but I did it recently - there's a thread on this here someplace. https://aseannow.com/topic/1248968-bangkok-bank-app-on-two-phones/ Setting up the app on another phone while outside of thailand? Not sure, I'd have to noodle on that. But with an active account in good standing then there should be no issue receiving OTP SMSes from thai banks while outside of thailand. This assumes your number is registered with the bank, and you have a roaming signal or WiFi calling.
  19. Yeah, this is a major flaw. If a person takes the time to review and to reject an application then they should take the extra minute to write the reason. They did this with the old system, maybe not 100% of the time, but I did get a reason for my one real rejection with the OLD system, in ADMIN remarks, my issue: missing middle name. It would be awesome if they simple gave detailed instructions on data entry. My best guess is that all details must/may/should match those given on your last report, and/or extension of stay (TM.7)? But why be forced to guess?
  20. In Russia they have terms for these types of "accidental" deaths: Concrete Poisoning Gravity Overdose Defenestration
  21. Seems like they've definitely reached their self-imposed testing ceiling. Based in my own recency bias, it feels like a lot more people are positive, a lot more people have symptoms, a lot more are staying home, and staff in retail/resto are affected. Hopefully not a lot more perish or suffer.
  22. Yeah this concept won't poll well. Even in a "SuperPoll" this idea would get less than a 25% potivie. Government Super Polls often yield ridiculously high high results: "112% of the people love Prayut." The PtB fear outside influences (black hand, NGOs, thaksin).
  23. ‘Billions’ Renewed for Season 7 at Showtime (EXCLUSIVE) https://variety.com/2022/tv/news/billions-renewed-season-7-showtime-1235182384/ I think I actually like it better without Bobby Axe? Yeah, 100 minutes lost. The underlying series, Wu Assassins, was pretty good I thought, and I like Iko Uwais, and the Bangkok angle was interesting - but that yellow filter, ugh. Nice to see Bangkok/thailand portrayed as something other than a cesspool. And a few of the fight scenes were well photographed.
  24. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.truelife.mobile.android.trueiservice&hl=en&gl=US Yeah, he may not be able to register or log in to the app if he can't receive an SMS. Options seem limited: - Have a friend in thailand pay the bill - Contact TrueMove H, Chat or Call, and pay the bill over the phone with a credit card. Ask them to enable international roaming, if it's not currently enabled. https://iservice.truecorp.co.th/ +66 8 9100 1331 I'd also install the Bualang mBanking app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bbl.mobilebanking
