  1. This is how I would expect it to behave, must be some subtle differences in our configurations, when I go to the "add account" it shows only the ATM card of the 1-name account and not the other one so there is nothing to add. As both the local staff ad the central helpdesk were unable to solve it I will in time just cancel the account and think TIT, anyway thanks for your input.
  2. I have two SCB accounts, one a 2 name account with my Thai partner and one in my name only. Both can be managed with PC-Chrome and Easy Net access, the one name account I can also manage with the SCB EASY app on my Android phone. As the Easy Net option will end next month and I did not see how to manage both accounts with the app I went to the local branch and let the staff do it for me. Result was a somewhat lengthy discussion with the local staff and the central SCB helpdesk both in Thai and English, and my Thai is fair, but it ended with we are very sorry Sir but we do not know how to do this but we will get back to you. This was a couple of days ago. Has anyone been in the same situation and knows the answer? Tried installing a second version of the App with DualApp but you have to switch off WIFI and they find out and deny registration. So far I guess we will just have to cancel the 2 name account, no big deal but we have a number of direct debits on that account like Waterworks, PEA etc and you can not simply move them to another account but have to set them up again, unpleasant.
  3. If you know the location and title deed number you can check what price the land office assumes, probably for calculations of minimum tax, transfer fees. Perhaps useful for you https://landsmaps.dol.go.th/
  4. I get my medication for many years already from Peera pharmacy near Thaphae gate, the lady owner is very knowledgeable and decent prices. Also a heart patient and take similar meds, Atorvastatine 40 mg, Atenolol 25 mg and mini asperine 81 mg. The Atorvastatine is the expensive part, if you take the Sandos brand the cost for a 4 month supply of 120 pills of these meds is 4250 Baht while if you select the locally produced Lipostat it comes down to 2650 Baht, your choice.
  5. Yes clinic inside of the moat about 20 m before the Kafe. Used it in the past, overcrowded and the good dr always seemed in a hurry. Switched to Dr Vachiraporn and very happy with that. Many people have used dr Siri so I do not doubt his competence. The signs are all in Thai so not very welcoming for farang.
  6. A bit confused now, thought that since about 2016 use of RCBO is mandatory for the main switch with the subswitches often be non-RCBO. According to the video this would be problematic. Was planning to replace the MCB in our house with a RCBO 50A Square D but hesitate now. Our house is not very big and the normal stuff connected, couple of aircons, 2 water heaters, fridge, waterpump etc nothing special. The same I was thinking to do for the house of the daughter that also lacks a RCBO. Would like comment from Crossy or one of the other pros if I would improve safety with the swap but get other problems in return, as we have had none in 15 years or that the swap is a good idea. Thanks, Joop
  7. Was this extension based on retirement? it sometimes seems to make a difference
  8. Got a death certificate for a friend three years ago, your situation will be different but it might help with the procedures. Good friend living in Chiang Mai and died in Chiang Rai, partner and son have moved to Europe at that time. First thing was to get hold of his passport that he did not have with him so he could be officially ID'ed. To get the death certificate I needed three other documents. He died in the Overbrook hospital, a private hospital in CR and I got the form where the responsible doctor declared him dead, the body was already moved to a bigger government hospital where an autopsy would be performed if there was any doubt about the cause of death, they issued a statement with the official cause of death and that nothing suspicious was found. Next was a visit to the police and they wrote a police report. With these three documents I went to the District Office, Amphur, and they wrote the official death certificate. There had been a couple of phone contacts with the Embassy and they were helpful. Of course this should be translated and legalized but that is not difficult to do, most translation services will do that for you. As both his and my name are on it in Thai script you will have to tell the translator what must be the outcome of the name translation otherwise you and up with quite a different name and it will not be accepted.
