Ok, misunderstood "got free ATK test at airport". Got not performed.

Really looks good.

Yes, just downloaded a 2 GB(yte) youtube video (about one hour in 1080p) with WinX Youtube downloader. Total 1:58 min. The download as such took about 1 min (rates of 350 to 450 kBit/s, less than half of line speed). The rest of time is needed to merge video and audio. Much due to my creeping slow harddisk. All with 3BB 1000/500. Of course not all sources will download with such speeds as youtube (Google).

? Did I miss something. I am bit confused. You entered via Thailand pass. Doesn't that include having paid for an RT-PCR test on arrival? And normally you get the result via smartphone (both negative or positive) within a few hours or overnight. Only with the negative result you would be allowed to leave the SHA hotel. Or have you indeed got an ATK test and have seen the negative result on the test kit?

S7 airlines has ceased all international flights yesterday. Aeroflot will follow from Tuesday (March 8). As far as I know there is no other carriers to/from Russia left. And the remaining tourists will have a difficult time to return home. Special arrangements?

Can't give technical explanations but it is completely usual. Every other month a big WWII bomb is found on excavation works in Germany. There must be hundreds or thousands of dud shots burried in Laos. More bombs on Laos then all of WWII.

I am not up-to-date about conditions in Germany (away too long). But as usual the #1 concern is having (mobile) internet access being able to use messengers whenever possible. Guess she has LINE and Facebook? For that a German SIM is recommended. Not sure whether LINE makes problems when changing SIM/phone number though. Telephone is last resort. Also quite expensive from the German mobile SIM to Thailand. There are multiple ways to get it cheaper with calling cards and things. But not too convenient. A bit complicated. Calling back the German number cost 5 to 7 Baht/min.

Only after reading the full article I understand the scam. Serves them right as they quite likely knew what kind of business that would be. So we can rest assured that no drivers with fake license are on the road

Wrong button pressed during the bombing mission from Udon Thani to Laos or Vietnam? Or a mechanical failure. Kind of loose screw.

GAME OVER (for now). S7 Airlines will cease all international flights from today (March 5). They will care to return remaining passengers from Thailand somehow. Another blow to the hope for tourism revival in Thailand. https://www.reuters.com/business/aerospace-defense/russias-s7-airline-announces-it-is-ceasing-international-flights-2022-03-04/

What a colored mix of topics. Repeat: I understand the OP asks about transfer money FROM Thailand, OUT OF... Not the usual how to get my pension here. Anyway the OP seems to have lost interest ...

From Bangkok Bank mobile app: When first using a new number there must be some "Add to fav..." button (forgot the detail). It will then appear in the list.

Sorry for the misunderstanding/under the quote. I refer to the thread starter.

ATK tests can be done at misc labs with a certificate at a cost of a few hundred Baht. Not self-test. I assume that such certificate would be required. Some businesses even provided ATK test on site (like near road checkpoints to Phuket, some airports). Don't ask me whether all this is still done (I am vaxxed), But the number of positive ATK tests results published officially has raised sharply (33085 yesterday).

Sure I saw "Those things are sooo inconvenient." "What are they for?" No extra pay for ABS. Nicer rims please.

Oh yes. There was a roundabout at Jomtien 2nd rd / Soi Watboon. I liked it! So much safer because they are forced to slow down. No speeding through red lights. A friend argued against and loves traffic lights. In the end roundabout removed and now he can sweat in the sun at near empty road and wait for the green.

Wow, now I know why SMS transaction codes have been abolished in many countries. Sending a highly sensitive QR code via email?? I assume there is a bit of a security mechanism behind? And yes I know what I say. Does "swapping" say physical?

Yes no double-check. And of course you are free adding to what number you like. But don't they have a favorite list that you can build or do I mix that with Kasikorn? I do that for wife and daughter saving extra effort.

In most cases it is limited to foreigners living on marriage extensions. Checking whether the marriage with Thai wife is legit, living together, foreigner living at the specified address and the like. They can also ask neighbors or village headman. Some exceptions to the rule. As far as I remember some foreigners on retirement extension had also written about a visit?

What belt? How you call that? Bloody U-turns. Cheap but deadly. (no excuse for probable speeding/sleeping Mr Sombat)

But nothing to do with the OP. He wants to send money (Thai Baht) FROM Thailand to abroad? Uncharted territory for me. All I read is problems, problems, paperwork?

Aside from the limited selection available so far, the poster might have problems getting his UK SIM swapped for e-sim?

And Lazada website unusable on mobile browser. Forced to (install) app. I was not able to avoid. The app is such a c.ap. Open and search for "mobile top up" and find nothing relevant. Search "mobile topup" and get endless SIM card offers.

Indeed. But relative to the center of the world called Bangkok Krung Thep Mahanakon And from there Chiang Mai is "quite north".
