  1. One thought that crossed my mind in regards to the validity of the address is that people are always moving residences. I think it's rarely if ever do people update their Drivers Licenses accordingly
  2. That's pretty much my train of thought as well. If it was known to be as simple as showing up and the DLT would rectify the situation, I could consider it. But I can see your scenario b coming into play as along with having to shell out for a new set of licenses because it was my fault for being a farang 555. I will say though as I've been living in Thailand for over 12 years now I cannot think of one time when the address was ever looked at or even considered for anything.
  3. Just my luck, I returned back from the DLT and the GF looks at my newly minted motorbike and auto licenses and tells me they the wrong room number 347 instead of 547 of the condo we stay at on the back of the license. Is this something I need to go back and correct it or something I shouldn't worry about.

  5. So is it best to have your Residence and Medical Certificates' with you when going the first time to make your appointment to the DLT or wait to see what your appointment date is? Just concerned as both certificates I believe have 30 day expiration dates' and not sure what the lag time on receiving your appointment date is especially being on the tail end of high season.

  7. You mind me asking how much Roojai charged you annually for your coverage on a Click 160?
  8. I've lived in Jomtien for over 10 years now and never had to supply these documents before
  9. Just a heads up, I don't know if it's been reported yet but I just went to Jomtien Immigration for my 90 day reporting and was told at the front desk that it's a new thai law where you have to fill out a TM47 form and have photo copies from your passport of both your front page and current visa stamp before they update your 90 days.
  10. Appreciate all your updates. I guess cynical me likes to think that the bank doesn't want to lose out on the extra ATM fees it's losing by allowing larger withdrawals inside.
  11. Well that's not good news, I was planning on going to the Jomtien (Pattaya) branch this week to do a withdraw.
  12. Unless I'm missing something on this site, it only gives what the actual exchange rate is. The daily bid rate is what Schwab uses on the transfer of cash to baht. Using the bid rate lets me calculate to the penny how much USD are relived from my account.
  13. Looking to transfer a sum of cash using my Schwab debit card in an OTC transaction. My problem is I cannot find the daily Visa bid exchange rate anywhere. I was using ferates website prior but for some strange reason they haven't updated since the 8th. https://ferates.com/visa/thb Would anyone have another link for this info. I would appreciate it.
  14. I wasn't able to get hold of Grail, but I've talked to at last a half dozen other sales people and the best answer I've gotten so far is that they have a microchip problem with the ABS model that there trying to rectify.
  15. Good luck in trying to find the Click ABS model anywhere in the Pattaya area. Neither Mityon nor Asia city motor have any in stock nobody seems to know anything about their return.
  16. No, I'm still doing my due diligence on purchasing a Click 160, when I saw this on YouTube and I was curious as to anyone having any feedback on any of this. He also has a another video that goes through a list of other smaller issues with the bike (11 minute mark) along with discussing the issue of having the battery located in the floorboard (21 minute mark).
  17. Just curious if anybody had any problem dealing with a plastic gear going bad after about 2kms in the oil pump I came across this Thai YT motorbike shop video attached below. Go to the 2:20 mark and he starts in on this issue. Its best to mute the sound and read the subtitles as it's in Thai and to avoid hearing the cartoon sound side effects.
  18. I maybe mistaken but isn't there a grace period of about 1 year after a regular 5 year DL expires that your still able to validate the expired license. The reason I ask is my auto license expires in May of this year and my motorbike in May of next year 2024. I never use the auto license but would like to have it in case of an emergency. I'm trying to determine if I can manipulate it to where I only need to visit the DLT only one time in order to validate both licenses for another 5 years.
  19. No there nothing of any real value like that just a low end HP and Acer bought roughly 15 years ago.
  20. I thought of that but wasn't sure if they could use such outdated machines that may not work well if at all in todays environment. These machines are close to 15 years old.
  21. Wasn't sure if I should post this here or in the IT forum, but living here in Pattaya here goes. I still have a couple of old laptops still around that I need to get rid of. By old I'm meaning that they were running on Vista and XP operating systems, I'm aware I need to extract the HD and destroy it. But I would appreciate any info on where I can dispose of the rest.
  22. You are aware that Windows10 will not be supported anymore after October 14 2025.
  23. I found the channels FB page and just sent a message to confirm. Should be an interesting reply.
  24. Yes I'm a subscriber to the channel. That is a good question as to why they choose some unknown app to contact them. I think you ay have hit the nail on the head.
