  1. Krungthai fees: Fees for receiving money from overseas transfer The Bank fee charges at 0.25% of the total amount transferred, minimum rate at 200 baht but not exceeding 500 baht You were charged the Wise fee, the SWIFT fee, the international transfer fee, and received the lower Krungthai currency exchange rate. Next time have them send baht to your Krungthai account. Small Wise fee, no swift fee, no overseas transfer fee (the money comes from Wise local Thai accounts), and better exchange rate.
  2. If they used Wise to send a SWIFT, then they have a Wise account, so they could have simply sent the money to your Thai bank using Wise. Wise would deduct a ~ 3.50-pound fee and then convert pounds to baht using the market rate. Then baht would have been deposited into your Thai account from their local account. 500 pounds = 22,750 baht https://wise.com/gb/send-money/
  3. That's strange. The line from the tank splits......one branch goes to the pump then to the house, the other goes into the ground to unknown? With the pump on, does it cycle for all faucets and toilets? If you turn the pump off, do you get any flow anywhere?
  4. I'm positive this will end well.
  5. He's on a 3-wheel e-scooter, not necessarily a disability device. Those can move upwards of 40 km/h. He blew through the intersection without stopping. Idiot. White line/no white line..........no matter. Bicycles and trikes and e-scooters should never assume right-of-way.

  7. Digging under the house is the last thing you want to do. Install a cutoff valve somewhere before the line goes under the house, or between the tank and the pump to isolate the leak first.
  8. Diversion to HoChiMihn City or Siem Reap or Yangon or Luang Prabang? (insert Barney Fife shooting self in foot Youtube clip)
  9. C'mon, man! They heard she was a "smoothie operator!" Coast to coast, Phuket to Pattaya, western male Across the north and south, to Ko Chang, love for sale
  10. Assume the reporter is cutting-and-pasting from older articles. source: geopoliticalmonitor.com
  11. That's expensive. Over US$9 billion Impressive? The Kunming-Vientenne high-speed rail line is 1022 km long, built on schedule in 5 years with 62 km of bridges and 198 km of tunnels. What's impressive is the total cost of US$6 billion. Hub of "Anything you can do, I can keep studying by committee for decades!"
  12. Do you have a shutoff valve on the line from the tank to the pump? Shut off the outflow from the tank to confirm water level drop.
  13. Post a photo of the water tank with piping to the pump and then into the house. The water flows thru the supply line outside the tank up to the top where it enters thru a float-operated valve. The water cannot flow back out to the street. Turn off all taps in the house. Does the water pump cycle? If so, then leak under the house. If not, and the water level in the tank drops, then you probably have a crack in the bottom of the tank and the water is draining into the ground.
  14. Wise will send GBP via SWIFT. https://wise.com/help/articles/2977936/sending-gbp-to-countries-outside-of-the-uk?origin=related-article-2553074
  15. Gosh! I don't know. I've never paid a hooker to sit across from me and drink a watered-down fake cocktail.
  16. Well, there ya go! They sent Euros via SWIFT to your Thai bank. Thus they were charged the SWIFT fee, AND they got the local Thai bank currency conversion rate, NOT the advertised Wise baht rate.
  17. What is the "justice" he is entitled to before the investigation is concluded?
  18. Whoever sent you the money deducted 25 Euro. You'll have to ask them why. Did they send a Euro SWIFT from their bank to Wise?
  19. Count your blessings. At least you know your own gender!
  20. I believe you can go below 2000 baht for up to a year with no activity before the account is declared inactive and monthly service fees will commence. You can drop to 0 baht and still have one year before the account is closed. I withdrew all funds from a Krungsri savings account, the clerk would not close it at the time, said it would close automatically. It remained open with 0 baht for two years, no activity, no service fees.
  21. You'd have to call the embassy to confirm, but often a person with a long-term visa in a third country is considered resident there for visa application purposes.
  22. Why are you doing a pull from Wise, incurring an additional fee? I send from my broker to my credit union, complete within a few hours, then send from credit union to Wise, received within 24 hours.
  23. So visit some apartment hunting sites, enter random cities with the filter set at maximum rent of $1000. Phoenix, Arizona has 902 properties. https://www.apartments.com/phoenix-az/under-1000/?bb=3k5tug84tM8q1i-9wJ&so=2
