Had to search for forum rules (tedious) before putting a link. It's not a forbidden source 😃 Sure the driver of the black sedan could have noted that something is coming on?

Either a bad translation or wrong statement. I was scratching my head to understand what this could mean. Fortunately there is video from Pattaya News on youtube. (search for "Thai man suffers minor injuries after car accident with an American tourist in Pattaya") Very simple and trivial, check the mirrors!

Bone dry (as other weather centers forecast). Do they consult an oracle for their weather forecast??

No because users are greedy for money. Makes them forget the plastic. Few will walk away without the money. Standard in many European countries.

You look on your mobile or website? You are logged in/registered user? And your girlfriend? There is all kind of points/coupons etc. to the registered user. I will never get it.

There are some recommendations in this thread from 2022. A name that appears more than once: Big Camera, 3F, Emquartier (Phromn Phong BTS).

Out of curiosity I studied the requirements for NL passport photo. It's amazing that EU countries can not agree on a single standard. Size NL and D is same 35*45 mm. But NL wants the face height from chin to head-top max 30 mm. Leaves a lot of empty space, no idea why. Germans (D) want face up to 36 mm. The official NL spec is for technical draftsman But this example is good enough to show. Light and background as usual. Eyes centered, chin to head-top 29 mm (30 mm). I think every photo studio should be able to do this.

If the mobile has a second SIM slot available it's easy to test/compare. SIM cards easily available at the booths in the Lotus's mall. Start about 200 Baht/month. As usual registration needed.

Hello neighbor. No chance to get a fibre to home? Or not worth for temporary stay? The whole area is well covered. I have a GOMO SIM as a second SIM in the mobile phone. Although they have an English language website there is no chance to register with passport. If you have a Thai partner he/she can register with Thai ID card. https://gomo.th/ ("EN" in the upper right corner)

Using WISE since six years (January 2018). Can't tell exactly when I switched to app preferred (after website). EUR from WISE account (Belgian IBAN) to Bangkok Bank. Never "instant"/"in seconds" because I select purpose long term stay in Thailand. Money usually arrives next day as international transfer (FTT).

Guess in Bangkok? Wouldn't be the first complaint. How do you connect? From inside condo/house? With mobile phone and working on mobile phone or tethering/mobile hotspot. Mobile phones are not best with signal quality as they have no proper antenna. A SIM router with an antenna might be useful. Just did a test with my GOMO SIM (AIS). In my room in the back of the house: 35/15 (down/up) On the balcony outside: 48/52. (GOMO SIM unlimited speed, is available only through a Thai proxy, can't register with passport). Unreliable to US: invest in a good VPN (I have NordVPN) and connect trough Singapore?

That the Android App shows up in the PlayStore without a problem. No VPN necessary. And that I advise against using a VPN when using WISE should also be clear?

That is the unfortunate truth. In Germany they are often owned by "special characters" who mistreat them. That's why they landed on some red lists and either be mandatory muzzled and on leash or forbidden to own at all. Some states do test the owners fitness to own dogs. In the US I see them being left alone with the baby.

For WISE? No. And don't access with a VPN! I had two problems in recent time with logging on. The first one was due to the fact that I forgot to switch OFF the US VPN on the mobile. So it was "suspicious" after years of logging on with Thai IP. The second one was at my usual unsociable hour of about 5:30 AM. This was indeed a problem at WISE as they showed on their status site. https://status.wise.com/ (see June 12 and planned maintenance for tomorrow) Apart from that I cross my fingers. No unusual problems. Fee rise is always unwelcome but still moderate. I don't know what that is but seems unrelated to WISE? And you don't consider you have a problem with the laptop and/or network connection?

Not to say Chinese who would do it overnight Sat/Sun.

I have asked mods to move the thread to Health/Medicine forum. It would be helpful if you could explain what "syringes" stands for. I guess combined with some medicine/drug to be injected? Can you name it.

Is it common practice here or in your country that the "government" distributes weather warnings?

Cross your fingers. Forecasts (compare to above) show even less. Come back to thread in five days.

What northeast? ? Again completely different from what worldwide forecast centers show for us. Even the usually bad forecasters show a max of 10 mm? Wait and see.

Something wrong here. First video removed. Picture of some guy. Topic handled in another thread.

My friend Lekgo from the village shop. Grumpy, no cuddler but not aggressive in any way. When I pass by I feed him some dry food.

Somewhat useless or misunderstood discussion about the right lane. Was sure not his first day in Thailand. Not fallen from heaven. Maybe at 3:20 AM some "spirit" made him forget about habits here and overlook the big fat markers on the road. Just coming back from a trip to Udon. Waiting on the main road at the red light. Motorcyclists swarming across the intersection at any given direction or light. Against the direction is so normal. Grannies on scooters, youngsters on pimped bikes. whoever, wherever.

Come on! Less than an upper-class iPhone will make Thai brats of today cry.

Writing PIN on the card. Admitting to make it easier for the bank to slip out. Eight days to notice the loss of the card. And what does she expect now? Some people should neither have any electronic banking nor a card! Even the infamous birthday PIN is better than writing on the card.

I am looking forward to do next extension on the monthly transfer method. As I never had planned to do so in the past it's a "daily use" account and the one year statement might be 2 meters long 😄 I already started to do minor stuff with another account. Another praise for KK, never such meaningless harassment. Copies of what is relevant and that's it.
