  1. Not really. The card expires after you do not top it up anymore and the number will be sold to another user and registered in another name. As soon as it expires your registration is not valid anymore.
  2. There are several ways to at least reduce the numbers of lizards in your home. There are sprays available (Homepro and others) to apply to the areas where lizards like to sit. The sprays do not kill but the smell or scent keeps them away from that area for couple of weeks. They will find a way to leave that particular room. A similar effect has WD40 spray which you can apply at the gaps where lizards enter your house (especially at sliding windows and doors). It really works great. And Lazada has several items to keep lizards away as well, just use the search function at Lazada.
  3. Talk about what? To split Ukraine and hand it over to Russia?
  4. I did not say that there is a direct connection, but.... Did you ever suffer from migraene attacks? The symptoms can be very, very similar to a hangover. And a migraine attack can be caused by an allergic reaction. That being said if after a glass of red wine you develop a migraine attack in the early morning caused by an allergic reactions against the chemicals in wine you will not know if it is migraine or an allergic reaction or a real hangover. That being said people who say that they had a hangover after wine could in fact had a migraine caused by an allergic reaction as the symptoms are very similar. Or to say it different, allergic sensitivities can make you feel hungover even if the alcohol quantity itself does not justify you to suffer from one.
  5. Did I say that?
  6. Red wine is one of the most common causes for allergic reactions of sensitive people according to my allergy doctor.
  7. As others have mentioned it the reason are chemicals like sulfur, histamines and so on. And this depends on the tolerance level of the individual. In my personal case I am very careful in drinking wines because since my younger years I do suffer from an allergy against certain natural and also chemical items. A specialist doctor tested the natural items and I am allergic against pollen, dust, grains, grass and others. I have unbelievable horror hangovers from drinking wines which can make me sick for 24 hours. I completely avoid red wines because of that. White wines are better for me. The problem is that this is acumulating in the body, that means maybe the first 2 days I feel okay but on the third day with the same wine I start to have a terrible migraine attack or hangover. Certain wines are tolerated better but it is not always the price range. It is the level of chemicals and it does not matter if they are occurring naturally or not. At least this is my experience.
  8. Nobody can clean out an account of a credit card so easily. First of all for all transactions I receive a message of the bank immediately. And at the end of the billing period there will be an invoice coming. It is not difficult to dispute the transaction or block it immediately after it happens. A credit card is quite safe. A debit card is however not safe. I agree however that the virtual cards are a good payment solution, I do use the one from Kasikorn by myself, but only for certain transactions.
  9. Instead of searching the internet and asking at aseannow it is recommended to consult with a hospital or an eye clinic for a real eye check up. Declining vision can have different reasons and the doctor can find this out within minutes.
  10. My response was not about what kind of education she needs. It was regarding to your comment "student loan in Thailand BS". I just wanted to point out that there is in fact a student loan system.
  11. The Student Loan Fund (SLF) is facing debt of more than 100 billion baht, up from 90 billion baht in 2022. The increase is due to several factors, including the economic downturn, the rising cost of living, and the difficulty of finding a job after graduation. The SLF is a government programme that provides loans to students who cannot afford to pay for their education. The loans are typically repaid over 15 years.(reported by the Nation news)
  12. Not true, at least not if you buy from a reputable seller and a brand name laptop. Warranty card will be included.
  13. I do use my 2 Thai credit cards nearly every day and as mentioned in my previous comment I experienced only 3 fraudulent charges within 10 years. All of them were detected and I did not loose a single Baht. The risk is quite low in my experience. So I cannot really agree to your "cash cash cash in Thailand only".
  14. Do you really expect the other girls who are her friends to tell you the truth?
  15. I have 2 Thai credit cards since many years. During all these years I have received several SMS messages that there was a suspicious transaction on my card. The banks sent SMS messages and a message in the bank app asking for confirmation if this transactions were done by myself or not. In all cases the fraudulent transactions were blocked and put on hold by the banks awaiting my ok. In all these years 3 times a card was cancelled and issued new. I have no idea how it happened but the fraud detection system worked very well.
  16. I keep a small air compressor at home, these can be bought for less than 1,000 Baht online (Lazada, Shopee or others). The small ones are battery operated and can be charged with a phone charger. A purchase I can only highly recommend. You can even take it with you during travelling.
  17. . According to my knowledge there is no option for you to leave. There are only 2 options. It is either block a person or delete your account.
  18. Both are good if properly used. They are however completely different. Tiktok is a video app with short videos, lot's of entertainment but also interesting how to answers and others. Videos are shown one after the other chosen by the algorithm. Facebook is a photo and video app to mostly communicate with friends and find interesting content as well. Facebook starts with your friends first. Tiktok is only really interesting once you use the bult in algorithm to your advantage. That means register and start to click videos you like. The app will then find similar content for you.
  19. Maybe the person deleted his or hers account. To do so go to settings, account and scroll down to the last option. Especially common at dating apps where members buy second or third Simcard to communicate without telling you the real Line.
  20. Mostly yes, but it adds up, especially milk powder.
  21. How can you be "engaged" with a woman who you never met in person? How can you want to marry her without even meeting her at all? My experience with dating sites are that 90% of photos are digitally enhanced (even using filter for video calls) that the real person looks completely different in real life. And unfortunately most of them are not really telling the truth.
  22. Just as a side note, dates are also excellent to help with constipation.
  23. Your girlfriend will be in trouble for that. If a person dies nobody can legally transfer and use money of a deceased person. A will is required and correct procedures must be followed.
  24. I got mine this year free within 30 minutes in Bangkok. The only issue is a bit communicating in English, staff was however very helpful and polite.
  25. Do you think I am cornered? You are either a troll or have some benefit in advertising WRLife. My answer to that is wise men do not argue with fools. I will therefore keep quiet. Have a great day.
