  1. I too have had success having accounts in Bangkok and another one in Mukdahan with Krungsri. I've been quite happy with the bank too. About 4 years. Of course it's prudent to have at least 2 accounts. One with a small balance for ATM and purchases use and another with your main holdings (for visa extensions, etc)...that one I never use for purchases or ATM withdrawals.
  2. Thank you very much Red. That was very helpful. Yes both accounts are in my name only and I had probably well over 500,000 baht with both accounts combined at that moment. I will have the bank print statements for both accounts. Have a great night.
  3. Good evening all. I would like some thoughts on something, I have had over the required 400,000 baht in my bank account for over two months (before marriage extension renewal) but, one week ago when it was late at night and I was tired, I was moving money from one account to the other. I accidentally moved too much money out of 400,000 baht, bringing a little bit lower than the required 400,000 baht. I was stunned when I realised what I had done and I immediately put the money back in, bringing it back over 400,000 baht. So it can be seen on my statement that the account went below the required amount for less than one minute. I assume/hope that will not be a big issue. Your thoughts/experience? Thanks!
  4. I think I will be needing one in the next few years. My biggest concern is what impact a procedure may have on my sexual function. It would be good to know the experience of anyone here who had a procedure, including which procedure they had. From what I’ve read, photoselective vaporization of the prostate (PVP) is the one with the least impact, though it is quite expensive.
  5. Wow! Quite interesting. Thank you! I will look into that. I only paid for one month for Skype. Have a good holiday!
  6. I looked at Skype again. You are right! Not bad. Got the app. I signed up, got a US number, etc. All good now. Sure appreciate your help. Big thanks!!!
  7. I followed the instructions, except I didn't turn on Airplane Mode. You cannot get online with Airplane mode on. I turned off my data service and location services and had my VPN set the the USA and the app store STILL knows I am in Thailand and the message says not available in your country.
  8. Thank you. I turned off everything on my iphone and had my VPN set the the USA and the app store STILL knows I am in Thailand and the message says not available in your country.
  9. Thank you. Unfortunately their website says you can only use their service while you are in the US or Canada. Not overseas.
  10. Thank you. The Google Voice app is not available for people in Thailand.
  11. Thank you. I was getting excited after reading about it's features and functions, BUT...frustratingly you can only use the service when you are in the US or Canada. I just saw that notice on their website.
  12. Thanks. I think it would fit my needs but it seems too expensive for me.
  13. Thank you. Yes, but actually I need to be able to call and receive calls and my number must be an American number. For dealing with verification, etc when dealing with banks, the government, etc.
  14. Thank you. Yes, normally I use Facetime and FB messaging to talk with friends and family all the time. I need an American number and calling/receiving especially for dealing with banks, the government agencies, etc. Additionally I am one of the unlucky ones whose Facebook account was suspended apparently after being hacked. I've appealed and I'm waiting for their decision. I think Skype would work for my needs but it is too expensive for me.
  15. Thank you. Yes I use FaceTime a lot for calls to my friends and family that I need another number for official things like banking. Additionally I am one of the unlucky ones who apparently had my Facebook account suspended because someone hacked it. Waiting for their decision on reinstatement. I looked into Skype and I think it would meet my needs but I think I found that it was too expensive.
  16. Good morning all. Can someone recommend a good iPhone app that I can use for internet/wifi calling in Thailand to call America and Europe. I also need to acquire a virtual American phone number as the number used in the app. I used Talkatone here for many years which was great and all of a sudden it stopped working and when I tried to reinstall the app it says “not available in your country” (even when I’m using a VPN set to a US location). The same thing with Google voice! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
  17. Good morning all. I am looking for recommendations for a good hair transplant clinic (or tips on ones to avoid) here in Thailand. I hope to have this procedure started in the next few months. Online I seen many clinics offering this treatment. The Bangkok Hair Clinic seems to be the most prominent one. Of course I am concerned about quality and price. I would especially like to hear from people who’ve had personal experiences with one. Thank you in advance for any help.
  18. Good afternoon all. I would appreciate some help with something I am not sure about. In a few weeks I must apply for my new marriage visa extension This will be the first time I renewed it. My current visa expires on April 28. After a few years my wife and I finally have a chance to take a much needed vacation. I am wondering if I submit everything at the local immigration office (Nakhon Phanom) on the April 18, will it be possible for us to travel for 35 days before returning. I just got lucky and found the resort where we want for a very good deal, so I want to try to reserve it quickly. Thanks in advance for any help.
  19. The lack of English on the product pages when using the Lazada app drives up the wall. Every time I use it I say to myself, how can I expect to sell to people who don’t read Thai? I think that’s a lot of people. Just as bad, is the fact that you cannot copy the Thai text and put it in a translator when using the app, unlike when you are using a web browser. Idiocy.
  20. Can people here who know, tell me how long one must wait for the booster shot after getting Sinovac first shot and Astra Zeneca second shot? Is it three months or six months? Thanks
  21. I hope someone here can help. For internet in our new house my wife bought some sort of True package that includes only a SIM and trueIDTV box. I am not sure why she chose that company instead of 3BB. Our house it too far from the road to have a cable. It's seeming like they told her to use a smart phone as a hotspot with that SIM instead of a router (or instead of something like their True Pocket WiFi mobile hotspot). So, if that is true it seems like we will be forced to buy a whole other smart phone (to put the SIM in, for it to act like a hotspot/WIFIrouter?). It seems like we cannot use our current phones because it would have a new SIMM/phone number. I'd love any advice. Maybe she didn't choose that best provider/package? We live out in the Isaan countryside South of That Phanom and we need good high speed internet in our home. Any better options? Thanks in advance for any help.
