It's an app. Already downloaded to my iPhone. Already registered. Covid Certificate issued. Cannot get International Certificate.

Just a blank screen. I think its because I do not have latest version (IOS13 only).

Me too.

 

I see that a new version of the app is available. But requires iOS 13. Too bad for those of us with "old" phones (iPhone 5S).

It does..

So, my question remains: how does one identify where a particular vaccine has been produced?

4 minutes ago, 55Jay said:

First two did for me.  Maybe the person who got a vaccination appointment email already, can confirm it came from the same address.  Waiting for mine, keeping an eye on my Spam inbox as well, in case it comes from a separate Ministry of Health email address.

My appointment confirmation came from [email protected]

Some help please:

Does anybody know how to re-arrange or cancel an appointment at Bangsue confirmed via Expatvac?

Also, a week or so ago, I think someone explained on ASEAN NOW  how to find out where a vaccine was produced. Does anyone have that post please?

I read recently that the UK and EU will not accept the Astra Zeneca vaccine produced in India for travel purposes.

Highly contagious Delta variant means people should avoid any unnecessary contact . They should use their phones instead to order food , medicines etc .

If there is no delivery service yet , need to set up one as soon as possible .

Villa just upped their delivery charge from 90 to 150 baht. Nice timing Villa!

Direct flights from Hong Kong all cancelled. And not possible to transit through BKK airport.

Even if the flights were suddenly reinstated, it takes 4-5 days to get the COE from the Thai Embassy, and COVID test, and confirmation letter from SHA plus hotel in Phuket, etc., etc.

Using Firefox browser, download the extension/app 'Easy Youtube Downloader Express'.

 

Download any music, documentary, movie etc onto you pc, CD, thumb drive/usb,.

 

I copy my music onto thumbdrive so I can plug it into a tv anytime that I want and anywhere. 

 

This is a fantastic collection! Thank you to everyone who has subscribed.

 

Does anyone out there know if it might be possible to gather all of the tracks/videos into one compilation to play continuously without intervention? Even better, to burn to a CD (or CD's)?

Wife just told me on Thai news all the vaccines have run out in Bkk

That will explain why, my having registered on the ThailandInterVac site OK, and being eligible, all booking dates for all the 3 hospitals, for both vaccines "available", are blanked out! What a waste of time. ????

On 2 June 2018 I was trying to make payment on my HDPRIMETV account with 2 x 150 baht Truemoney cards.

The first was processed successfully and I was credited with 39 points.

When I tried to make payment with the second card the process went into a never ending wait, and I had to restart HDPrime. Then, when I
tried to make the payment again it was rejected with a message saying card had already been used. The second 39 points was not credited to my account and I was 150 baht out of pocket.

 

I then bought another 150 baht card. Same problem again. After submitting payment card, returned to blank payment submission. When tried to enter a second time, message saying card used, but my account not credited.

I am now 300 baht out of pocket!

 

No reply to a number of emails to their [email protected]. Their Facebook page has been closed. There is no contact telephone number.

 

Seems like a nice little scam!!

Can anybody recommend a place to chill out for a few days:

 

- by the seaside

- not too far from Bangkok

- inexpensive?

 

Thanks.

Try AIT/KIRZ in Thailand.

Excellent uptime claimed

Ship Inn, Ao Yon, Cape Panwa (if it has not been bulldozed?).

Thanks Hanno

Thanks phuketrichard.

 

Do you know if Loft is open on Sundays?

Great info, thank you!
