  1. Our bills, see the rise per unit from September:
  2. MEA/PEA tarrifs are identical nationwide. Rate per unit rises with consumption. 5 Baht is a rule of thumb for private single household (less than 400 units). Currently there are state subsidies for some discounts (forgot the details, will end soon). Rates by landlord are arbitrary. Our last few bills were a bit more than 5 Baht/unit overall. We get no discount (reason is quite unique not worth detailing).
  3. A bit confusing to have a parallel thread that explains what happened.
  4. Of course an underlying problem with dirty/inferior fuel is possible. I had problems with the motor stall just after starting and trying to get off. In the end the fuel pump had to be replaced. Was clogged with some dirt or so (mechanic showed me). Wasn't too cheap, 1800. From the OP it sounds like a problem with fuel supply.
  5. Wow, Pattaya police cracking down on these criminals. People can feel safer now. Would be nice if they could find time to deal with real problems.
  6. I rarely use 1st gear on my Honda Wave. 2nd gear takes me (80 kg) away smoothly and no need to change gear for quite a distance. Would always take me across an intersection.
  7. Obviously a SW issue. Nothing specific to the topic starter. Nothing to do with status of report or the like. On a PC I would right click the PDF links and save the files. Then open/print with a pdf reader. I simply don't like the browser embedded reader feature.
  8. I have corrected this fatal error
  9. Width! in mm (non stretched). Length is plenty EDIT: had to correct. It's width.
  10. Latest is Dec 6th for report in person. (Dec 5 is closed) After that small problem, 2000 Baht
  11. 56 mm is the biggest I know from usual convenience stores and drug stores. Durex Comfort. A bit difficult to find bigger ones like 60 mm for mister huge banana. Many articles with 49 mm for the thumb. Then 52/53. Search hard and you will find the size specified as seen below. Can't find a picture with an English label:
  12. European weather center forecast 26/18 C for Friday. Time to get the hoodie out????
  13. Decades living in Germany I can't remember switched sockets. In the house here I installed two. Nice to have but hardly ever switched off.
  14. Can't help about Chaiyaphum specialized money exchangers if any. Commercial banks offer rates that are about 0.3 worse than best money exchanges. Would end with 3000 Baht less for 10000 Dollar. And the banks can be quite picky about clean crisp notes, denying any notes with dog-ears, scribble etc. Go to main branches only. Passport required. Whether it's worth a trip to Khon Kaen where you might get 0.2 better than at a bank in C.P.? (there are money exchangers).
  15. Using them about monthly for more than two years from EUR country without any problems. What I would have been affected was a weekend when they limited transfer to 18000 Baht per transaction. That lasted like Friday to Tuesday. It's always best not to expect transfer in seconds but be OK with next day. I usually get next day labelled as foreign transfer at my Bangkok Bank account. Might be related to specifying purpose as cost for long term stay.
  16. If opting for a flight, you should check visa (on arrival?) requirements/cost for your nationality. Also the schedules look like at least one overnight is necessary if flying nonstop from CNX (Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, HCMC, Hanoi, Danang...).
  17. Venezuela has the highest known oil reserves in the world followed by Saudi Arabia. Now you can decide which barbarian or socialist/communist regime you prefer to make business with. For Venezuela there is a chance to get rid of the terrible mismanagement. What's your perspective for Saudi Arabia?
  18. Even in Khon Kaen there are one/two exchanges with decent rates. But as written: if the topic starter doesn't reveal his area it's all pointless.
  19. Like it or not, but it's a report on day 90 from day 1 entering Thailand (grace period as described above). Last date for report in person would have been Fri 25th. It's not a 3 month report. Either count on the calendar or use this: https://www.timeanddate.com/date/dateadd.html Add 89(!) days.
  20. Almost fell into the trap ???? Nov 21st WAS the due date Aug 24th was day 1 Nov 21st was day 90 Your report is overdue. Go and see what the mood/fine is. 2000 is usual.
  21. Thanks for that. It was down for a long time. I had given up.
  22. ? You are posting in the Isaan forum. A little hint about your location would help. Otherwise you will be directed to Superrich in Bangkok
  23. Just checked with WISE and it's not a scam/fraud. I read it in German language You must be too rich ???? It's about large sums (without specifying) and they claim it is part of regulatory conditions. German text says three months of statements with clear references (like pension, work income, interest...).
  24. And multiple reports and checklists that no proof of onward travel was required for the 30 day extension. Potential problem is always the airline if your booking exceeds 45 days.
