  1. I ended up having to sign up for Sling Blue at $35 for the month, it'll give me TRUtv TNT and TBS games. For those that need access to the CBS broadcasts then Paramount+ for a month makes sense and all will be covered at a decent price. I plan to cancel Sling after the tournament is over.
  2. Problem with that is you only get the CBS broadcasts, Final four games are all on TNT and TBS.
  3. I use FUBOTV and am really happy with it, I use it on my AppleTV with a DNS provider (Getflix), however there is a major issue with FUBO and the tournament. FuboTV does not have TNT and TBS in their channel line up so you will miss a hell of a lot of games as only the CBS broadcasts will be available. SlingTV offers TBS and TNT at $40 / month but they don't offer CBS. So if you want it all under one subscription HULU LiveTV might be the best option.
  4. Yes, and the KUL flights were very popular here as well. Now please restart the HHQ to UTH service, I remember those flights being full capacity pre-pandemic.
  5. I have been here in Hua Hin since 2009. The process has always been to get a residence letter from your landlord or condominium building manager, then take said to Immigration for the certificate of residence. You will get it from the downstairs at Prachuap Immigration office and the document will cost 500 baht still I think. With the certificate and Passport , also a Thai phone number, you shouldn't have any trouble. I have accounts at both BBL and SCB, I find SCB to be the overall better of the banks.
  6. Bluport shopping center office is now no longer processing 90 day reports, only service they offer is tourist visa extensions, I.e. TM7. It was nice to pop in there for a quick 90 day report, they are forcing us to use the new online 90 day report.
  7. I used to stay at Top Marks as well until I bought my condo. It was a fun place in a great location. New ownership now renamed Sophia the original owners moved to a new guest house in Cha-Am. Might have been on account of a religious holiday or King’s BD.
  8. Arrived last night at Udon Thani, no one asked for anything at DMK and didn’t say anything about what to expect on arrival. Was directed to the counter on the right after arrival and instead of digging out my printed vaccination certificates I provided the digital wallet certificate I downloaded from California. The guy looked at it and was confused, called his colleague over and I explained that it is from America / California and then they were happy. Gave me my little paper with the stamp and was allowed to exit.
  9. Bintha Baht won’t be returning to what it was, the plan is to make a modern board walk where all the guest houses and restaurants were located along the sea. Many are already tore down. Bintha Baht will be part of the project rejuvenation. As already stated most all the bars from the area have relocated to Soi 94. I know bar owners on Soi Selakam and they want to relocate as well.
  10. Still 400,000 baht in the bank is a lot better than tieing up 800,000 like I have to do! The UK, U.S., AUS and a few others will no longer issue pension income affidavits.
  11. Thanks for the info, making the trip from DM on Nok Air next week. I was surprised that Nok Air had no info while booking.
  12. For myself as a returning resident it was well worth the effort as I am sure it was for your friend a businessman. For tourists I agree it is not accommodating. Yes the airlines are totally confused in what is required of them I believe this is on account of the previous Certificate of Entry system which required tons of paperwork. Singapore Air took 30 minutes per person to process at check in at SFO. Luckily I had printed all my documents and QR code, those that didn't have paper copies were told to email them to the SINAIR office so they can be printed. Then the agent took a photo of each document for their archives and a supervisor had to come and go thru all the documents as well before the agent was cleared to process the individual. As far as arrival was concerned it was very slick, however the screeners of your documents preferred to see paper copies as well. I went right thru the line because I had paper copies ready, the officer scanned my paper QR code and then I went straight to immigration, bag claim and then my waiting SHA+ hotel representative. The whole process after arrival only took me 30 minutes and I was swabbed and resting comfortably in my hotel room served breakfast and ordered a couple of beers within an hour.
  13. The TAT website has a listing: https://www.tatnews.org However I found it easier to find my SHA+ hotel I used for Thailand Pass via the Agoda website, Agoda is partnered with the SHA+ system. Via Agoda you will see hotel location in google maps.
  14. I booked my hotel from Agoda and used the Agoda confirmation in TP, then next day I get email from hotel to send them my itinerary and copy of PP then they will send me the confirmation to use for the TP application. Did I screw up using the Agoda confirmation? Should I resubmit with hotel confirmation letter as I received the email from TP that application was accepted, but no QR code?
  15. My understanding is that the Covid insurance period only needs to cover the quarantine period. Now that quarantine is going away November 1 it will be interesting to see how this is interpreted.
