Plan B could be to move out to a more friendly countries in Asia, with less immigration hassles, hotter gals, cheaper prices and great quality of living.

Netflix is the worst as they regularly detect VPN's and block,

There should be a law that forces requires managers in pool-villa developpments to assist their farang residents on the immigration house registrations on-line. These people are quick to charge absurd prices for their services but do not offer any complimentary assistance to their property owners within the residential complex.

How can one say she is not happy despite her conditions ? At least she does not get scammed in exorbitant monthly "community fees" or other monthly over-inflated charges that are common practice in housing or condo developpments.

It's getting tempting to start wearing a personal bodycam when dealing with the immigration or police and other BiB's.

Somebody did not get his monthly brown enveloppe it seems ?

whatever you say, but how to know that you are on a legal or illegal site ?

Get solar pannels. It will avoid getting cheated by those gated pool villa developpments in Hua Hin, Phuket or Pattaya who overcharge on electric and water to their farang clients residents who own property on leasehold.

When will the authorities properly punish and enforce the rules to force the taxi crooks to put on the meter and stop cheating tourists and foreigners ? It's due to all the taxi cheats that these app's are popular and now the taxi cheats even try to scam you on the app. UBER must come back to thailand.

increase salary but lower the thb value to compensate and crash the prices... 1 us$ should yield 45 thb. but if prices increase it will benefit to exports but definately not to the foreigners who will be financing the whole scheme. a weaker thb does not mean cheaper prices and tourists will soon realise and retirees will sell and leave.

learn to read and fastcheck other press or social media on any hot topic. it may avoid you asking such questions and making a 000 of yourself.

try google translate if you don't understand elementary english

Android TV boxes are illegal despite being sold all over apprently. Is there some kind of official sticker or norm not to buy something illegal ?

Yes it's a classic clerk over the counter cheating tactic. Your change is put on the counter but on the side and the rest is put in front. Mechanically you will only take what is in front and ignore the bills on the side. This is used all over the world that's why i always make sure when in Thailand or abroad to have small bills etc. A nuisance but necessary, Also there have small pocket translators now on Amazon that are connected to the gsm network at no extra charge or subscription, Very useful to communicate if you do not or cannot use google translate on your regular phone.

No, prices will just inscrease for the rent-à-week/per month, female entertainement guides. it will never be less as there is far to much money to make,.

And discourage tourists or retirees to either come to Thailand or to use services. As it is prices have already rocketed with all the income tax perhaps ? or maybe just greed. The tailors in Bangkok or Hua Hin, Phuket etc are cheating with prices now costing the same as in Europe. And please....don't bring up that excuse "it costs more in your country". Of course it does, that's why we come to spend here for cheaper prices and top quality. Otherwise, Malaysia, Indonesia, Cambodia, India, Vietnam and many more are all waiting for the farang retirees to come.

What do you say to the elderly or the handicaped ? Sort your own things out ?

They say Android TV boxes are illegal for sometime in Thailand and can get on into trouble. VPN is great but Netflix seems to block when they detect a know Ip address via VPN ? So what alternative ?

They say all over that the android TV boxes are illegal ? VPN and the Molotov TV or HDPrimes seems the best to remain legal and not end up in jail ? just asking....

Is Apple TV any worth in Thailand ? And any way to get just a 3 month subscription with a Tv provider for retirees who do not wish to stay longer and pay tax !!??! ????

You have a point but if they want to prosper with farang money, it's totally the wrong way. People come to Thailand to relax and enjoy at crashed prices. Not to waste energy or to get annoyed with hateful negotiations and people trying to cheat them.

Arrogant or rude people with inflated egos, who think they can repair anything and end up in having to call a qualified tech and pay triple, to mend their mess.......are far worse, IMHO.

What I love is when people running service businesses try to manipulate, make one feel guilty and start claiming that the price back in the UK, US or Europe is higher, or that you are a Cheap Charlie and other rubbish. Never feel bad and plainly be shameless and find the best deal. Only a fool would pay similar prices in Thailand as compared with those back home.

I do not pay that much in my Thai Bank nor my bank in Europe for an ATM service so if you consider normal to pay that much per month to some scamming US bank who could end up bankrupt in the next US bank crisis...... "555555"

Apple Music and mainly Amazon TV and it's music that is free and then you must pay. Terrible choice of films on the basic subscription and any decent movie is to pay more. Cancel it unless you use the prime free delivery. If not no point on Amazon TV neither. Best is to get a TV with a satelite dish and watch all your programs.
