  1. no such ting as a credit card in thailand for falang, you deposit money then draw down on it up to a max of 80 percent of money deposited in account. when they told me i laughed i nearly brought a round.

    was told why that is and I agree I am 8 years employed with a valid wp still no unsecured Cc. Reason? I could go home at anytime leaving the debt. I do agree

    And yet there is plenty that do have an unsecured CC, why. Because the bank does not consider them to be a flight risk.

  2. Hmm.

    Any tilt up concrete company could put a house up to same similar size as pictured in not much more than a day.

    Yeah but that is not from raw materials now is it.

    But so what?

    Cement mixed with water is pretty raw. Anyhow this is about some 'revolutionary' new machine that can build a house in a day, at least the walls anyway.

    My point is we already do that.

    No.

    Not a chance can you precast offsite then assemble onsite in the same day.

  3. The 5 year cannot expire, if you do your back to starting again with a 1 year.

    Not true. They will indeed renew 5 year licenses after expiry, without even commenting on the fact that it expired. In fact you are better off doing so. If you renew a short time after expiry then you get six years, since it expires five birthdays after you renew, not five years from the expiry date. I do not know how long after expiry they will renew, but it must be at least weeks based on my and others experience. I suggest that the OP ask at DLT.

    Yeah no problem renewing your 5 year licence late. My boss did his and it had been expired 8 years he just showed em his IDP and they renewed for another 5 years without blinking an eye. This was at Au Udon.

    Odd how a (presumably non Thai issued as they are annual and you say expired many years) IDP, based on a license that isnt Thai, had much bearing on reissuing a Thai one !!!

    Don't know why you find it odd. The person had a 5 year license and it expired. He came back to Thailand with an IDP that match his home country license and they renewed his thai license.

    I let my 1 year temp license lapse and when I went to renew (after 12 months expired) I had to sit the full test crappola because I did not have an IDP. they gave me a 5 year license though.

  4. I get this.. Attach Files You can upload up to 1.43GB of files (Max. single file size: 100MB) Trouble uploading? Try our basic uploader

    when you press the qoute button a new window pops up, yes there is that attachment stuff at the bottom but just ignore that.

    Type what you want to type under the text that is qouted (it is boxed ) and then bottom middle of the page press add reply.

    You qoute me above except that you did not type a reply.

  6. Nothing has changed.

    There are a few problems why you cannot quote;

    1. You try to qoute the first post in a Thread. This is not allowed.

    2. You try to qoute a post that has too many qoutes all ready. To prevent excessive qouting you can not use more than a certain number of quotes in a post.

    3. In some forums, like news, you are not allowed to post.

    If this doesn't help, best to post a link to the post you want to qoute so we can have a look.

    works ok for me.

  7. read the thread Sent from my GT-I9300 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app

    I have and you seem to be in lust of the shiny paint of this vehicle and leaving yourself wide open to ripped off.

    Pay for the vehicle at the LTD after the book has been transferred to your name, not before.

  8. As long as the OP does not make any payments until he has the blue book in his possession what could go wrong?

    but it is the opposite because the blue book is still in work from registration office.

    once it is ready and in possession of the seller he will send it to me.

    If not he have a blue book but no car and I have a car but no blue book

    And what are you going to do if he does not send you the book and instead reports the vehicle stolen ?

  9. The ignorant bank workers think that a WP is the only way to open an account. I've had to educate several workers at several different banks that what

    their bank requires is a non-immigrant visa, which happens to be obtained by the foreigner by EITHER by Work, or Marrriage to Thai national, or Retirement.

    Simply clarify that to them, slowly, and remind them that you are aware that they do not understand their bank's requirement, and ask them to get the bank manager.

    Usually, they come back by themselves and open the account.

    So have you actually opened an account at UOB or are you just relying on your own ignorance ?

    FWIW I have an account with UOB and as mentioned by another poster the first thing they asked for is a work permit.

    Can you read my post carefully? And if the bank told you to bring a dozen eggs in order to open an account, you would do that?

    If it is written into their terms and conditions on opening an account yes I would.

  10. all that fabulous Thai food and you are eating sh.t , your choice your money i supposes.

    again comparing Thailand with the UK ,

    Each to their own I guess, I'd prefer to eat a steaming pile of dog excrement than most thai food.

    to the OP, I believe the delivery charge is used to pay the delivery person.

    Could you please share your favorite dog poop recipes with the rest of us? I mean, we have to assume you prepare these delicacies at home, since they're not sold streetside.

    Feces Pieces Pie

    For Dog feces base:

    1 oreo/graham cracker pie crust

    6 oz cream cheese (about 3/4 of a package)

    1/2 cup sugar

    1/4-1/2 cup milk

    1/4-1/2 cup fresh creamy dog feces

    1/2 cup whipping cream

    1 env gelatin

    For custard:

    2 eggs

    1/4 cup sugar

    dark rum smile.png

    1/4-1/2 cup milk or cream

    1 env gelatin

    Soften the cream cheese, and mix, adding milk a little at a time, until you get a smooth (no lumps !!) thick liquid somewhere between whipping cream and syrup in consistency. Blend in sugar on medium, until the mixture tastes like cheesecake (in fact, it IS cheesecake). Set aside.

    Blend cheesecake mixture with Feces. Leave on double boiler until you completely dissolve an envelope of gelatin in about 1/4 cup of hot water. Blend into the mixture, and after it has cooled a while, put it in the fridge until it thickens a little. While you wait, whip up the cream. After the mixture has thickened, fold in the whipped cream. Pour into the crust to slightly above half way. Eat remaining mixture (or fill second crust) Put in fridge to set (an hour or two).

    Break eggs into a small saucepan, and remove the stringy things that hold the yolk in place. Mix to an even consistency. Mix in milk, sugar and rum to taste. Take healthy swig of rum (by this time, you deserve it). Vary proportions to taste. Final mixture should be a pale yellow color. Put on low heat, and stir 'til thickened (the egg should cook a bit, maybe in five-ten minutes). Dissolve gelatin in 1/4 cup hot water and mix well. Set aside to cool. Once custard has cooled, pour on top of set feces mixture, which should now be firm. Guzzle remaining custard. Put back in the fridge. It should set in one or two hours. If the final product seems too mushy, put in freezer about an hour or two before serving. Serve with whipped cream (use rum instead of vanilla when whipping :) ). There's so much fat in there, a little whipped cream won't make a difference!!!!
