  1. This beer promotion can not be viewed with a Thai IP. No loss.
  2. Happy I could reduce my visits to once a year. For me this new location is not great. I liked the bus station (coming from the west).
  3. Is it this one, construction site on a Street View from November 22?:
  4. No recent but a few years ago I had a checkup at Memorial Hospital and was quite satisfied. It's centrally located and medium sized not such a mega complex like Bangkok Hospital. Their most comprehensive checkup for males 50+ cost 10500 Baht. See yourself: https://www.pattayamemorial.com/DetailList.aspx?id=608559 Incl. chest x-ray, ECG and whole abdomen ultrasound which detects some (not all) potential problems with organs (fatty liver, prostate size/residual urine, ...).
  5. Make sure blood test includes PSA (prostate antigen).
  6. Wireless Rd still not wireless
  7. And going on for quite a while. Kasikorn and Bangkok Bank both on the front with branch closures and ATM network shrinking.
  8. Yes it is of course not an instant/quick method. But I usually transfer some funds to the WISE account as soon as pension is on German account. Then watch rate and hope to hit a good time to send.
  9. Maybe worth mentioning: I always transfer from my WISE account (Belgian IBAN). I fill up that account from my German bank account (DKB) with normal SEPA transfer. So far never a problem.
  10. Wrong. Beagles recently in the press. They also have German shepherds on the airport premises, maybe for security only.
  11. Not missed but what is dramatic here over the weekend. No reason to hold transfers.
  12. Not much to find at WISE. https://wise.com/help/articles/2960081/theres-a-problem-with-the-website Private/Incognito window might be worth a try.
  13. Very similar to my procedures except the SMS thing, I can't and will not transfer anytime soon. I >once< had this "takes longer" with Euro to Baht. Annoying and making me nervous. In the end (day 3?) transfer done as ordered. Maybe someone comes up with similar experience.
  14. I don't think so. Thai Baht is boringly slow/stable in exchange to Euro. It would really surprise me if this would be affected. I remember some clause from the past that they might cancel a transaction if the rate swings more than 15% between order and execution. These volatiles are more like Turkish lira and similar.
  15. A "few pills" without prescription, no original package and Tramadol? I would sh.t my pants.
  16. Having a local bank account is king. Paid my 6 digit hospital bill by bank transfer at the cashier. (scanning their QR code to get account details, enter amount, confirm) For most of the one to four digit Baht payments at checkout I still prefer cash.
  17. Can't help. Logged in to the Android app with fingerprint. No problem. Logged in to the website (email, PW), confirming login on the app (2FA), no problem. All from Thailand. I don't remember the details when the two factor authorization (confirm on mobile) came into effect. Sounds like you can login with just email and pw? From where are you trying to login, what currency you send?
  18. Watch collector can go as his little boy.
  19. The man was a "Bandido". The usual gang wars.
  20. For me it was too late for other options. Size 119, PSA 20. Other options are usually limited to size 80. I am fortunate enough that no cancer was found. Can't say too much about sex life yet, not too much in the mood while still fighting with urinary infection, taking antibiotics and still limit activities (no bicycle, no motorbike). But yes, willy still works somehow and climax is reached (better or worse, too early to tell). So sure you know you are finished. But of course you and your partner have getting used to the fact that all remains dry.
  21. Land border yes. Airport no. The "letter" with the new passport. More and more consulates have abolished and will not provide. Recently I got note from Swiss consulate and that they had informed Thai officials/immigration that they do not provide such letters.
  22. 4 km, what a joke. Some remote areas have a mom&pop shop at best in this range. How will the system check distances and allow/disallow use? How will the payment/transfer work, every noodle stall needs an electronic terminal with GPS?? The thing is a complete pipe-dream and by no means thought out well. And exactly TOPS, Foodland, Central, 7/11 etc.etc. should NOT profit from this!
  23. In contrast to overruling election results shutting down FB, Insta, TikTok etc. WOULD lead to uprising and riots ????
  24. With Tamsulosine you would have retrograde already. My experience. I had TURP almost 4 weeks weeks ago and retrograde. All bone dry. 66 yr and no plan to plant any brats. So for me just a very minor concern.
  25. Quite confusing thread/title. As I understand it's about using an AIS SIM in the UK? So the title misleads to thinking about AIS coverage in Thailand while it is about a roaming problem? (O2)
