  1. It would help if folks could give their office location. Seems like two successes so far? I haven't checked FB yet.
  2. At least with the "old" systems (web, app) the band-aid was removed quickly with the instantaneous "See Immigration...." messages. And when you could submit and did get rejected, at least there may have been a clue in ADMIN remarks section. Now they leave you twisting for days, insert the obligatory weekly holidays, before rejecting a report as some sort of macabre effort. I can't imagine they could make something worse, but I am never surprised at the level of incompetence witnessed hourly here. I assume they'll get this thing working at some point, possibly. Meanwhile, all mail submittals probably sit unopened in a dank corner at CW while that staff has been reassigned to reject online submittals from the "new" system.
  3. Windows? Alt-PrtScn, then go to IrfanView and Paste. Maybe that won't work because of the overly? (It should though.) https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/202920879-Sending-a-screen-capture-file-reaction-or-audio
  4. This works for me, here, with BofA. Although I use GV SMS as my primary 2FA. The FIDO key is becoming more important.
  5. Which banks? What 2FA options do they currently support (besides SMS)? For example, a security (FIDO) key? What is your budget for being able to receive SMSes? Are you able to to modify/add/change contact numbers without getting an SMS first? For me, both Google Voice and Talkatone work everywhere (except id.me and some government apps), but I do also have T-Mobile (old plan, $10 every 90 days; roams here fine) and UltraMobile ($3/month) I recommend UltraMobile as it has the WiFi option which works here. Getting these SIM solutions set up though can eb a challenge. There are quite a few good threads here on this subject. example: https://aseannow.com/topic/1122011-expats-keeping-a-phone-number-in-their-citizenship-country-aka-magicjack-not-working/
  6. These are now referred to as "Gestures". Go into Settings and search for Gestures. Modify as required.
  7. Seeing reports of walk-ins, or very short (a few days wait-times). Probably highly location dependent. https://aseannow.com/topic/1242350-just-got-my-3rd-booster-moderna-vaccine-at-bangkok-hospital-in-bangkok-today/?tab=comments#comment-17035417 Praram 9 Hospital (Bangkok) might have some extra?
  8. 1,650 is for one single dose. Doctor/facility fees probably 250 ish, but my read on the SHopee Ts&Cs is that this (1.650) includes all fees. **PLEASE READ TERMS AND DETAILS BEFORE PURCHASING** Bangkok Hospital Head Office has opened reservations for Moderna vaccines, lot 2, which includes vaccine costs. (And vaccine allergy insurance), medical equipment costs and hospital service fees on the day of vaccination only, which the hospital expects to receive the vaccine around January - March 2022
  9. It is challenging to wade through the daily marketing hype re: boosters. "Now with double the COVID fighting ingredients." Once they add the skin whitening option there will be a run on vaccines here. ???? And getting the one you want, in the dosage you want, on the date you want, in the location you want here may also prove challenging. As a Pfizer 2X here I am leaning towards a Moderna full (single) dose here as close to six months as possible. I've got 2X Moderna pre-paid floating now at 31 March, but can split those and move them around at will (pull in to today for example, or push past 31 March).
  10. How do you do this? Can this be done only when filing a report? You forgot "purchase new amulet".
  11. Will a stop-over exceed my 72-hour PCR test requirements for entry to Thailand? No. Assumes you stay in the international transit area at DOH. Do not, under any circumstances try to "leave the airport" at DOH. I doubt that they'd let you pass arriving Immigration anyway. Maybe re-arrange a shorter connection, and/or save the Doha city tour for next year's World Cup?
  12. After she says "yes, all done, everything is ok", you'll need to ask for some documentation. The bottom portion of a paper TM.30, a screen grab from the web or app, or some other document from Imm. Will you have any business with Imm in the future? Extension of stay (COVID, or other)? The owner should probably register for the online service. https://extranet.immigration.go.th/fn24online/ Maybe check with the juristic office?
  13. Again awesome medical advice. You apparently survived that so not waking up, or complications, after a double hit of a vaccine might be classified as "worse"? As near as I can determine today - and I am not a scientist or medical professional - the half-dose of Moderna as a booster is for those fully vaxxed with Moderna. For those vaxxed with other vaccines, a full dose may be OK. I'm not certain you can get a half dose here short of pulling away from the needle as the nurse approaches a 50% "plunge". You might be able to arrange it, or it may become a menu item here at some point, but the needles are usually loaded for that day.
  14. One local "chart". For AZ 2X it says 3 - 6 months for Moderna #3. Maybe just follow the news over the next 4+ months? You could consider a purchase of a single dose, especially from a private hospital that is flexible in scheduling. I had no luck with Bumrungrad (unwilling to commit to even a six week window) or MedPark (2 doses only), But there are dozens of private hospitals so think I've narrowed down one that will commit to a specific date in March. If they want to be a medical tourism hub they need to fine-tune the paid booster/vaccine programs to be more foreign customer friendly.

  16. So two Thai women arrived on Nov 24. An American arrived on Nov. 29. Sure testing was done, apparently at different times but I think thailand gets the gold and the silver, with the U.S. chap getting the bronze medal? Or maybe they measure time differently here?
  17. I don't think so. But maybe give it a try? In the U.S. there are some supervised (remote via video call) test which some airlines (UA for example) accept. Abbott and United said Wednesday that passengers can use Abbott’s BinaxNOWTM Covid-19 Home Test and Abbott’s NAVICA app in what the companies say should help make the international travel experience more seamless. Before passengers come home, they “conduct the test with the digital health proctor, get their health pass and either upload it to United’s Travel Ready site so they can re-enter the country or show it at the airport when they check in,” an Abbott spokeswoman said. The companies said travelers will be able to purchase BinaxNOW Home Tests, which come in a six-pack of tests for $150 plus tax and shipping, from the eMed health platform. Delta no longer flies ex-BKK so you'd probably be flying ex-BKK on Korean Air for BKK-ICN. Doubt they'll board you with a self-administered test. They'll be looking for something official from a recognized testing facility here. Maybe one you're in the U.S. jetting about domestically this sort of test would "fly"?
  18. "fine either way" Awesome. Who cares what the dosage is? Twice as much should be twice as good. What do doctors, scientist and health officials know anyway. All that said, mostly in jest, local applications of Moderna as a booster (to AZ, sino-stuff) seems to be full strength. And no one has died, yet. In the U.S. the half dose is for those who already have Moderna 2X. So maybe for Pfizer 2X, Moderna full dose is OK for a booster. Thanks for blazing the trail, and volunteering. https://www.bangkokhospital.com/en/content/questions-about-moderna-covid-19-vaccine https://www.thaipbsworld.com/full-dose-or-half-dose-clearing-up-confusion-over-moderna-boosters/
  19. Do you know if you got a full dose (0.5 mL) or a half-dose (0.25 mL)? https://www.fda.gov/media/153354/download Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine is authorized for emergency use to prevent COVID-19 in individuals 18 years of age and older. A booster dose was authorized on October 20, 2021, for specific populations described below. The purpose of this letter is to alert vaccination providers that the volume of a booster dose is 0.25 mL. Primary Vaccination: Each dose 0.5 mL A primary series of this vaccine is two 0.5 mL doses administered intramuscularly 1 month apart. A third 0.5 mL primary series dose at least 1 month following the second dose is authorized for administration to individuals at least 18 years of age who have undergone solid organ transplantation, or who are diagnosed with conditions that are considered to have an equivalent level of immunocompromise. Booster Vaccination: One 0.25 mL dose A booster dose may be administered intramuscularly at least 6 months after completing a primary series with the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine to individuals: • 65 years of age and older • 18 through 64 years of age at high risk of severe COVID-19 • 18 through 64 years of age with frequent institutional or occupational exposure to SARSCoV-2
