  1. An alternative to the gold shops is in Satthorn: https://www.ylgbullion.co.th/th/products/gold-9999/ylg-gold-9999
  2. The Wise physical card I received needed to be activated. Activation PIN was in the App. So, even if the card was stolen from home mailbox, does not add up.
  3. Agoda is not good for booking Thailand hotels - call hotels direct and book. The price shown on Agoda is not the checkout price - they add VAT (7%) + 10% booking fee just as you hit the checkout button.
  4. You don't think RTP have people monitoring this Forum - and you just published your route online! A movie starring Jim Carey and Jeff Daniels comes to mind.
  5. Try doing it at peak hour and not at night and you will get the same issues as the OP...you are obviously not a Thailand regular. Taxi drivers are notoriuos for refusing rides to busy traffic areas during the day! OP - will never change, I avoid them like the plague - I have found Bolt MB taxis the way to go.
  6. This one is working. My friend used them when they arrived last month: https://www.limousine.in.th/fasttrack.php
  7. Has anyone looked into this more deeply? Do you just have to prove the $80k income every 5 years - or is there some income check yearly to maintain the visa?
  8. A lot of guys living in Thailand prefer Filipina girlfriends over Thai girls. I am one of them. I know quite a few guys living here in retirement who bring in their girlfriends from the Philippines to live here with them. He still comes out way ahead in costs with his Philippine investment! <removed>

    The Sportsman in Soi 13 - normally have it on the big screen upstairs.
  11. I can confirm - I arrived last night from Netherlands and I was not asked for any vaccination certificate or any PCR Test Result - I can't remember the Emirates booking online, may have asked for my vaccination status - I fully vaccinated...no PCR required at Bangkok Ariport last night.
  12. Looks to me that it hinged and is dual purpose and folds down to close/lock off the ATM
  13. Nope - I asked for a 5G sim pre-paid in the AIS shop in Em Quartier "cannot sir" was the answer. Put the sim in my 5G IPhone and it only came up 4G. After I signed a lease for a condo, went back a month later and converted to the 5G Unlimited service 1099 Baht a month, they did a few things on the computer, did not even change my sim, and it changed to 5G.
  14. No 5G on the AIS pre-paid sims - only 4G. Unlimited data 300 Baht lasts for 30 days. But, you can convert to a AIS 5G mobile sim post paid and keep the same number later on if you decide to stay in Thailand. AIS Unlimited Data 5G mobile Post Paid is 1099 Baht per month and comes with a 2nd free 5G mobile sim with 150GB of data that just goes to 4G if you exceed the 150GB. I use the 2nd sim in my Ipad Pro.
  15. I would get the 7 Day Visa mate. Nothing is a sure thing in the current climate. Flights are getting cancelled daily at the moment - especially the cheap flights! https://www.news.com.au/travel/travel-advice/tips-tricks/best-and-worst-times-to-travel-revealed/news-story/a101b61b6806360a41679ea848a58a42 That's just me though.
