That is the Ultra Mobile Paygo SIM. Their embedded eBay link is dead but searching on eBay manually gives me the Paygo SIM for $15.99 I assume once you pay that, you subscribe to the $3/month package. This SIM, once registered in the US, will work for sms messages on a Thai mobile network? Or does some other setup options need to be done while still in the US for this to work? I see eBay also lists some pre-activated Paygo SIM cards. The 'most popular one for $39.95 has 60-days validity. For a total of $86.95, they will also precharge it with $35 credit which gives 1-year validity. This option allows you to select a zip or area code and they'll acquire a local number for that selection. This Ultra Mobile SIM Card (PayGo) is used in any unlocked phone that supports VoLTE (4G & 5G) service. It can be used in the USA and International (Roaming Fees Apply), or enable WIFI Calling and pay no roaming fees if outside the USA. Ultra Mobile SIM Card Ultra-Mobile $3/mo. pre-paid plan! Uses T-Mobile Towers 100 Minutes & 100 Texts & 100 MB per month Service Pre-Activated! Cancel service anytime Service available in the USA No International Roaming Fees if using WIFI Calling or, International roaming fees apply if using cellular towers outside the USA. This SIM Card comes pre-activated from the date it is shipped. It also comes with 30-days of service; including 100 minutes, 100 text messages, and 100 MB of data. It works anywhere in the USA where T-Mobile's 4G LTE towers are available. Unlocked 5G or 4G VoLTE device required. We assign a new phone number and generate an online account for you, so all you have to do is logon and add a payment method for recurring billing. Or, if you do not want to enroll in automatic payments, you can simply logon to your online account and make your $3/month payment every 30-days.

I recall being unable to set up a Google Voice number last year as it wouldn't accept a Skype number for the 6-digit verification code. Just tried it with my Vyke number, also denied.

I signed up for a Vyke number last month and tested sms to/from Thailand to/from the US (a friends phone) and my UK mobile numbers and it all worked. This was an alternative to Skype that can send but not receive, ie. sms sent to my US Skype number from non-US numbers are never received. Vyke also worked for my US bank inasmuch as the bank setup accepted it whereas last year it refused a Google voice number (can't use VOIP numbers). However, I haven't had the opportunity to actually test if the 2FA works. This morning, I was tidying up the numbers in my PayPal US account and they wouldn't accept the Vyke number for registration (can't use VOIP numbers). So I am still looking for bulletproof but economical 2-way solution for a US phone number that satisfies all the security hurdles. I have a friend heading to the US for a vacation so I will probably ask him acquire a SIM (or eSIM?) for me and get that activated while he's there. Earlier posts recommend Ting, Mint or Ultra.

So funny. You bit. Even funnier that you lamely assume that I'm a Scouser...are you from the jungle, In The Jungle? Looks like we've got a proper pair of Diablo's here.

I'd feel a little guilty if it was that early, no way would I be ready to leave, would have to get them to come to the club for a drink 555 Actually it was prescient as hotel checkout was noon but the consulate didn't open until 2 PM. So we went and had lunch and beers and I found a shop that sold Lao coffee beans as well as Beer Lao.

And since when has being remiss on one's road tax commitment been a deterrent to anything here?

This!

You tell 'im trans. I recall that Fords early and very successful sub-1 liter EcoBoost mills high HP were all enabled by turbochargers. Tiny ones, smaller than hamster cage wheels.

So? I'm British. These OTT adverts encourage NOTHING. Same-same push-up bra adverts.

You can do all that at an ATM? Amazing Thailand.

Dave Chapelle will have to go then, every other word is N Yeah, and he's a N....

Enough vagueness in that to be handily dismissed as being caused by various driver's habits. IIRC, this particular class-action has only 9 litigants. I think Ford dodged the rubbish Fiesta transmission/gearbox bullet for years based on the same broad reasoning.

Still relevant no?

When you signed the rental contract, didn't the agent at Easy Car Rental give you their contact number AND the contact number for THEIR insurance carrier? What did they tell you do in the event of an accident? That's standard procedure for the main car rental franchises and if these local agencies aren't providing this information and support, they should be avoided.

Omigosh, doesn't onkel Wilhelm have enormous pixels?!

In the underpants for sure. What motocy?

You've never understood turbochargers then.

It's a sports lorry. Please try and be precise. So you haven't seen the early morning Mitsubishi pickup advert where it's doing barrel rolls off-road in Khaoyai?

I do my best.

Those stick-on fake hood scoops and big running horse badges aren't dreamed up by Ford.

That's not a sign of a badly maintained engine. It's the sign of a 'chipped' engine. However, due to being chipped, it will inherently become a badly maintained engine. They are go-faster bars. Free fitting when getting chipped.

The latest dick drivers? I've been intimidating right-lane hogs, scaring wrong way riders and generally barging my way through life in my Rangers since at least 2011.

What's the AXA premium compared to your last roojai premium. Did AXA honour any discounts (NCB or non-claims bonus) from your previous roojai coverage?

It's the insidious and growing clamor of Presentism where some people are compelled to insist that everything, absolutely EVERYTHING historical must be viewed through TODAY's prism.

in thailand ? ???? My driver in Savannakhet, Laos turned up two hours early yesterday.
