Well I suppose that's a different subject, but yea. You say AIS deal is great, you also mean Monomax, same thing right? I know AIS customers get it cheaper.

5 year licence renewal Khon Kaen
Stuck in Thailand replied to yardrunner's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Fwiw, as these things seem to change daily, I went to renew my license in Khon Kaen today and apart from original license, passport etc, the only additional doc required is proof of address, or COR, as some seem to wish to call it, from immigration. Nothing about a yellow book, a blue ID card, a pink card, or anything else related to a colour, which is just as well as I don't have it! -
Yes I get that, just thought I'd mention it. Logically they have to have English language as it's a UK 'product' and this new crowd would lose a lot of business from us (s)expats if they didn't have it.
-
OK. As I said before it might just be what we have been use to i.e True Visions channels 600 and 602.
-
That was probably me, they told me it will be dual language but let's see. Someone said they watched a club world cup game this week and it was Thai only. But yea should be OK and they still have 6 weeks to get all in order.

Yep. I had forgot about it until I read your post. I hope these cowboys don't <deleted> it up, having me football is what keeps me sane living here. my biggest fear is only Thai comms, but in reality English comms really shouldn't be a problem at all.
-
Haha. I had forgot, but yes same here a year up front than no bill after that "-)

You could have bought a Maxplay stick for about a grand instead of going 24 large, but don't get me wrong I'm no experts in these matters and still have nightmares about CTH, I still have their dish glued to the side of the house too 🙂

True, but wouldn't want to speculate. I did like the 30 mins highlights that True showed over the last 2 seasons. I'm not even fussed with punditry, it's all waffle anyway, as long as the games have English comms, which I'm informed they will have.

Thanks, a fair bit of info there. I say I 'plan' to watch on the app via my tv as I need to buy a new tv first, my one is too old to support the app even if I did find it (I haven't even bothered to look) I don't mind buying a new tv as I was thinking about it anyway and they have really come down in price. I went to a store today saw a 55 inch Samsung I liked and asked if the Monomax app was available on it, which it was. I'll bear in mind the Monomax stick from Lazada, I won't get an Android box, just don't like the things. Good to hear that the picture quality is good. So I should be set either way by mid-August, but do I think this service will be as good as True's PL coverage? No. But then again this has cost them approx Bt20 billion so it's very much in their interest to make this spot on. Just on a tandem, I wonder what the bars will do? Probably just stream from dooball or some other site.

So it works for you, so what? It works for me too. The point here is those with dodgy minces can't read the instructions, so it's proving to be an issue. A proper 'I'm alright Jack' you are. -

So you're going to go into a branch every time you want to transfer money? it is a farce, I've had problems with it but note it gives you a few tries, usually it asks you to blink slowly 3x and show your teeth. Kasikorn bank you don't have to do this, thankfully. -
I knew this day would come where the PL coverage went over to a streaming service. True put on a really good job IMO and hopefully this new crowd will be just as good, but I have my doubts. Not bothered about pricing as it's not expensive, particularly when compared to SKY and TNT sports in the UK. What I have managed to find out is that English commentary will be an option (thank god) and there will be repeats and highlights shows, so maybe it will be the same as True channel 602 was with the English coverage, but maybe it will be Channel 600 that had the Thai pundits, or something totally different? My plan is to download the Monomax app onto my Samsung smart TV, subscribe and watch from there, I think that is fine? Since you can only use one device per subscription the days of watching any games in bed are over, as I won't be carrying my TV upstairs or paying twice! Look forward to any thoughts.
