Another Wise problem

How much would it cost to send 500 GBP? -
Another Wise problem
Furioso replied to Furioso's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
I checked, you're right to get $500 from the U.S. it costs: 1. Approx 15 USD via Debit Card. 2. Approx 6 USD via Wise. -

I think I'm going to do the same, there isn't really much price difference between Wise and Debit Card anymore. -
Another Wise problem
Furioso replied to Furioso's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
Yes I'm trying to send money from my U.S. bank to Bangkok Bank. I try to bypass the Plaid option but there's no way around it. I did a little more digging and you can register an account on plaid.com to see what information they're getting from you..with the option to shut any account plaid is accessing. I don't know if I'm going to use Wise anymore or not, this is just too intrusive. -
I apologize in advance if this has been brought up before. However, today I tried to use Wise and right before I press the last button it says I need to approve "Plaid" to reconnect my bank account. This is the first time this has come up and I've been using Wise every month for 2 years. I did a quick google search and if I approve Plaid it allows them to extract information from my account. Anyway, just curious as to what your experience has been. Did this happen to you? Does this keep you from using Wise anymore?

Obesity and Morbid Obesity are a world wide problem. No, not a problem but an epidemic. No, sorry not an epidemic but a gd apocalypse! I left S. Korea in 2011 and for the most part Koreans were downright slim. Now almost every Korean I see is morbidly obese. For the first time in human history the average life expectancy is going down. It's not uncommon for people in their 30's and 40's to die of obesity related illness.

Hello, I noticed my 2021 HS TomTom Navigation now provides traffic info. I don't think this feature worked when I bought it. Anyone else notice this? I wonder if they updated my navigation during my most recent service or maybe they push the update over the air?

The folks here with money love it here and they are just like anyone with money..they won't spend it unless they get a deal. I see them give 20 baht tips all the time, and you see the wheels turning in their head that they should've tipped only 10 baht.

I think only the crazies (like what happened in the Capitol riot) will come out again. American's are not organized enough to do any real damage. Plus, they're divided over many, many issues you kinda need more than an 80 year old obese rich golfer to fight over. There's probably less than 500 loonies(with horns, painted faces, fur coonskin caps)that will lash out when Trump loses. The only way to organize American's into fighting/rioting en masse' will be when they are so downtrodden they simply have no other choice, probably about 5 or 10 years away.

Best Song of Past 100 Years? Your Vote?
Furioso replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
It's either AC/DC's Thunderstruck or every song on Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon. -

I was going to buy that new iPhone 16 but no way that's happening. and that new Honda CRV? forget it. My friend says the baht is always strong during low season, maybe it's a way to squeak by idk.

Shipping an E bike from UK to Thailand.
Furioso replied to Asquith Production's topic in Motorcycles in Thailand
Asquith Production wrote: Is it for sale? Unfortunately not, it's just going to sit outside and become weathered by the sun. It's either the Rail 9.8 or 9.9, probably the 9.8 which costs €8,200 brand new. The 9.9 cost €10,100 brand new. He paid approx €5,400 for his slightly used Trek Rail. -
Shipping an E bike from UK to Thailand.
Furioso replied to Asquith Production's topic in Motorcycles in Thailand
My neighbor left his e-bike in Germany then came over here and decided he wanted an e-bike here. He went to Cadence in Jomtien and bought a very nice Trek e-bike(Rail 9.9?) for 200,000 baht. It was slightly used but you can't tell as it looks brand new. I believe it sells for over 400,000 baht new so he got a great deal. I was not a believer in e-bikes until he let me ride it and My God! it's by far the best bike I ever rode. He has all sorts of toys so he never rides it just sits in the parking lot near his high end scooters..it drives me mad! -

Foreigner Steals Taxi While High on Cannabis, Crashes into Lamp Post
Furioso replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
If the guy was high on weed he probably would've sat in the taxi and waited for the owner/operator to return from the convenience store and ask "where's the munchies dude?!). -
50,000 baht request from Thai long time friend.
Furioso replied to brianthainess's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
50,000 for a ceremony for a big jerk? No way would I loan or gift her the money she should have paid way less for the ceremony. Best way to not lose a friend if they ask for a loan( a reasonable amount that I can afford) I just give them the money and they can do whatever they want with it. I don't ever bring up the loan ever again; just say you're my friend I hope this money helps. 2nd time the friend asks for a loan I just say I don't have the money. Case Closed. -

Cyclist Killed in Pickup Truck Collision Near Pattaya
Furioso replied to Georgealbert's topic in Pattaya News
I don't know where Chittaphawan Temple is located. It almost looks like the bridge over Sukhumvit is in the background. -
Cyclist Killed in Pickup Truck Collision Near Pattaya
Furioso replied to Georgealbert's topic in Pattaya News
Cutting across Sukhumvit is a real challenge, even at 0630 in the morning. You can't make one mistake. I don't think there's one bridge or tunnel to cross Sukhumvit in the Pattaya/Jomtien area but it would be a very welcome addition to pedestrians and bike riders. -
Sorry I forgot to mention it's at index living mall. Available in 2 colors I can send you the link if you like..unless it's okay to post here.

I'm getting ready to buy the 2 seat version of this electric recline cloth sofa. Price for this 3-seater is 33,900 baht. I've sat in these several times and they seem pretty durable. I prefer leather but it's hard to find good leather over here.
