  1. It's about increasing limits, particularly the single transfer limit of 50k. I don't think you are forced to have it setup. And wow, for once it worked for me. 90k from my BKB to Kbank. It seems all about this blinking with the eyes at the right time. But yes it's annoying. Why can't they give audio instructions or some flashing/big font. They could really use some help from experienced developers. In the west accessibility is a big thing.
  2. Maybe the stuff over the counter is not as strong as what they use at the clinics? Of course not trying anything stronger at home!
  3. I have three immigration offices as my LINE "friends". Chonburi and Korat are somewhat active. Khon Kaen is useless/dead. Showing office location that has changed twice in the meantime.
  4. The stuff they use at some clinics is: Hydrogen peroxide Low concentration, 3%. Makes that bubbling sound while it works in your ear. I think I will give it a try when I experience clogged ear another time. https://youtu.be/kWjSfG02giM?si=tPJVEaDn6OnYOZmI
  5. 10th is Asanha Bucha, one of the highest Buddhist holidays. 11th is beginning of Buddhists lent (Khao Pansa). Not just a "freebie". I think both will be dry days
  6. Three closing days in July. From Chonburi immigration.
  7. Pensions taxed in Thailand... Banks closing accounts... Potential rise of financial requirements for extension... It's now three months to next extension and no tax return requested. Banking smooth. 65k+ per month. Who has more?
  8. Not much less than Thai Airways depending on dates (varies widely). And there you see the final price when browsing. Typical AN thread hitting the topic starter who has a legit (although long known) complaint.
  9. Welcome to the world of budget airlines. The start from... Good you didn't write "new scam". Age old from the beginning. Pay for payment one of the biggest jokes. It's all about ranking in searches to get up in the list and lure you to their site. 1200 for a domestic return? For me obviously a decoy. 1000 one way was the rule of thumbs before COVID..
  10. Do you have 3BB internet? I had problems to access iHerb too. With a Thai(!) VPN it worked. I then changed DNS network settings on the PC to Google DNS and successfully ordered some stuff. Your error message comes from Brave browser. As much as Iike it, for such purposes I use Chrome. iHerb also has the annoying feature of redirecting to th.iHerb.com whatever link you use. Maybe Brave interferes? Just tried it on the mobile (AIS) with Brave and it works OK. Redirects to th .iherb com. I bet on DNS problem. I doubt hacking.
  11. You were faster. Same thought here, yellow book plus pink card. I carry the pink card with me anyway. yb usually at home. If the poster has a blue Thai ID card he is a Thai citizen. Makes no sense combined. Fortunately KK DLT accepts yellow book plus pink card. No need to run for residence certificate. Another example of inconsistent administration: as I read they do not accept in Pattaya.
  12. Sorry for my confusion. But isn't it a requirement that the monthly transfers go to a Thai bank account in your name (solely)? And for proof you use statements from your Thai bank showing foreign transfers. Or is this thread about requiring statements from the Thai bank AND from your foreign/home country bank? I have shown Bangkok Bank statements printed, stamped and signed at the branch. I will not try some downloaded self printed statements.
  13. Unlikely in this case: some websites block access for all Thai IP addresses. US Home Depot is a well known example: https://www.homedepot.com/
  14. What Internet provider does the "good friend" have? Is there just a basic technical error message or a government official "blocked" website? Read a post about someone with 3BB having problems accessing a Thai company site. And then yesterday I (3BB) could not open iherb.com! Changing DNS to Google DNS fixed the problem.
  15. Just the opposite. Years ago there was an attempt to block porn stuff and show some official site about the blocking. I use a VPN on all critical sites anyway. But just now couldn't resist to open the #1 hub and see erected body parts in a second. But really: get a VPN as officially these sites are not allowed
  16. They come once (unknowing newbie) and never come again. That works to a certain level like seen for Phuket. In the past Pattaya had a lot of regular guests. I guess these numbers are going down. Fed up.
  17. It's easy if they take it serious. The "blondie" who prepared him for the mob to add their kicks is 100% from the area. One of the late kickers looks like one of the quality security guards (Treetown style). The guy does not fight back, all seems over but no, one bastard gives him another kick. Blondie with the unique hairstyle, initiator:
  18. Even the existing are ignored. Law is not worth if it's not enforced.
  19. I would shoot at the damned truck with the loudspeaker tower ๐Ÿ˜ There is no peaceful place if you have a conflict with neighbors. But the level of violence is shocking
  20. Thai traffic does not forgive. An 80 year old on a motorcycle. Bad chances. If you are on slow bike: drive up on the far left to the turn, wait for a gap and then short way over to the turn. I am not the only one to do so. On highway 12 speeds of a 120 km/h or more are usual. There is a reason why a couple of U turns on Pattaya Sukhumvit have been closed. Too many deaths.
  21. The borders are closed to everyone! These bastards lock out their own people.
  22. Half a million for a bicycle? That's more than racing bikes at Tour de France. Golden brake levers? Obviously a rich kid. Twist your neck if you have no mirror!
