I cannot top up my True account from Kasikorn. I cannot top up a friend's True account from Kasikorn. He's going to try topping up my True account from another bank. Has anyone here successfully topped up a True pre-paid account from the Kasikorn website/app in the last couple of weeks ?

Dismantle the heater, find the restrictor and modify it.

Paying from the Kasikorn website fails (It used to work) Paying from the Kasikorn app fails, whether connected via WiFi or 4G Payment from the True app with a foreign credit card works Payment from a top up machine in True shop works only after the True employee inserted her ID card I still have no problems paying companies such as Lazada from the Kasikorn website. I was kind of hoping someone else has encountered and solved the same problem. If not, I shall have to do a test by trying to top up someone else's True mobile from Kasikorn. Then see if they can top up mine.

The previous post had referred to the K-Plus bankig app, so I was replying to say I had tried the K-Plus banking app without success (as well as the Kasikorn web site. I can, of course use the True app and pay with an overseas credit card, however, I prefer to have the Kasikorn option, as before. True blame Kasikorn. I have e-mailed Kasikorn and expect they will blame True.

I have the same problem with the app.

In the past, I have successfully topped up my True Move phone directly from the Kasikorn website. Now it no longer works and has a invalid reference number error. That's despite using the same payment details as saved previously. It also fails if selecting True from scratch. My mobile phone account is still live and works well. I topped it up with cash today and that shows up on the True website. Any idea what is wrong? I presume the problem is on the Kasikorn side, but proving that is difficult.

Are Pfizer or Moderna readily available anywhere yet ? Paid or free.

The cover is for the duration of the trip, so the end date matches my return flight. The one term that I don't like says something like "AIG will not issue a new certificate if the trip is extended after the first flight" Now my plan is to extend my trip slightly if I can get a covid extension or do a visa run. However, to make my Emirates insurance valid, I probably need to move the return flight BEFORE departing.

Worse still, if you get a false positive, you're going to be sent away to spend time with others who have covid-19. Also, if they send people away to a hospital, or even if the population thinks they still do that, obviously people will avoid going to test centres unless they are quite ill. So the actual covid infection rate is likely to be far higher than reported.

My hotel told me to use the Agoda booking confirmation. After checking it, I see it does specify "Special Entry Programme" and mentions inclusion of the testing and transport from the airport.

I sent an e-mail to [email protected] with the flight tickets attached. I got a signed pdf of the insurance back about 90 minutes later. I attached that to the O-visa application.

To speak to my NHS doctor, I either need to wait weeks for an appointment or go and queue outside the surgery, in the hope that I might be in the first 16 who are granted an audience. As for his knowledge, all I know is that at some time in the past, he/she passed all the exams and so on needed to qualify. What I don't know is if he/she is diligent at keeping up to date with new issues, like covid vaccines. Since some of them can't even properly read blood test results off the computer screen, I have my doubts. I'd much rather trust reliable references to information such as government recommendations from various countries & research papers. At least I can read it before making a decision, whilst I have no such confidence in our local GPs.

They accepted my Emirates insurance for the 90-day O-visa.

I'm just applying for an O-visa. The requirements state: (Attach) Proof of insurance cover letter (minimal coverage 40,000 baht for outpatient and 400,000 baht for inpatient, during entire stay in Thailand) The Emirates documentation refers to Medical coverage, with nothing excluding outpatient. The only time the word "outpatient" shows up in the entire 31 page policy document is with this quote: " Please note: This is not private medical insurance. If You go into Hospital abroad and You are likely to be kept as an inpatient for more than 24 hours or if Your outpatient treatment is likely to cost more than £300, You or someone acting on Your behalf must contact the Assistance Department immediately. If You/they do not, We may provide no cover, or We may reduce the amount We pay for medical expenses." That implies outpatient is covered as well, but whether it is explicit enough for an O-visa is TBC. I e-mailed AIG again and they said they provide coverage to $500,000 and don't distinguish between inpatient and out patient. No place to attach a second document, but I have this in case they query the insurance. I'm sure my insurance will meet the separate covid COE/Travel Pass rules, but getting an O-visa is the first step.

Thank you. Is there anything logical as a table which explains which visas can get which extensions ? I know "logical" is a rather ambitious term for Thai visas. What's the least difficult way for someone over 50 to go to between 90 and 120 days ?

Thank you. That's useful to know. With all the different visa types it would be rather good if the authorities could summarize the key points of them all in a good old fashioned table.

Ref: O-visa eVisa application I have 2 questions about this. 1 After uploading the files needed, as per my list below, the next option is submit. I presume we see a payment page & no further questions ? 2 How long is it actually taking to process these eVisas ? Some websites suggest a few hours and that applications should allow at least 5 working days. I would like to know how long people find it actually took. (Then I will add a safety margin)

I think the STV is generally considered to be unreasonable, which is why few people use it. If going for a shorter stay, the alternative visas make much more sense: Tourist visa -60 days + 30 day extension at immigration O-visa (over 50s) -90 days + 30 day extension at immigration

Is it possible for non-residents to get Covid vaccines at private hospitals yet ? Strong preference for mRNA.
