USA phone data - What's the cheapest way when visiting.
marin replied to EVENKEEL's topic in US & Canada Topics and Events
KLA, I think you can see by the nick where I grew up. Have not been back in 5 years due to covid and work schedules. Have twins one in LA and one in SF. The LA daughter is working for Space X and we are looking forward to touring the Hawthorn facility. The SF daughter has a media consultancy. Have not seen either since they started this. Also I have a 50 year college reunion up in Crescent City. Looking forward to driving the whole of California and southern Oregon on the coast. Here the wife and I are like you often taken 3 day to 10 day domestic road trips around Thailand. -

I have always gone to T-Mobile but they have changed to an online company called Ultra. I have this package waiting at my daughters house in SF, the best I could find. $39.99 for 15GB and a month. https://www.ultramobile.com/product/15gb-prepaid-plan/?attribute_months=1-month-plan -

Proof reading is important. 32 degrees C is quite warm, mine not a Samsung is much cooler. I hope its a typo. ☺️ -

Non o immigration visa Thai wife
marin replied to wood78's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
So since you have been here you have opened another account? Simply the bank sees it as, if you transfer all your money out you have no account. You seem to be well off. Just balance your funds you have incurred no loss. -
Embattled deputy police chief claims PM has abused authority
marin replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Big joke is not and has never been clean. Cultivated an image in the media that helped him, hated in both the police and immigration for a variety of reasons.- 62 replies

Selling a House Privately not using an agent.. In Chiang Mai.
marin replied to 33 RPM's topic in Chiang Mai
First off that seems quite cheap to me with the land area being 8 Rai. Guess I have been in BKK too long as it seems just the land should be worth that. What is the house like? Bedrooms, baths, furnishings? -
The wrong information, especially with Bangkok traffic

So go 40 kilometers the wrong direction. Then begin your journey?

Just so you know the scum in Phuket are not from Phuket.

Just drive to Pattaya and you have the best grocery shopping in all Thailand. From supermarkets to specialty stores.

British man arrested for begging to buy drugs in Koh Pha Ngan

Is that so? How did this fool get pressured into taking drugs in Thailand, and how should the British government help him? Silly. -
Unable to see 5ghz wifi on Redmi Note 9
marin replied to scubascuba3's topic in Mobile Devices and Apps
Is the Note 9 5g compatible? My Note 13 connects easily and shows both 2.4 and 5g. Good luck, I got conflicting answers googling. -
This is a bit off topic. But the National Aviation Museum of the Thai Air Force is just north of Don Muang Airport and is open to the public, free as well. I have enjoyed it many times. When the kids were little and still lived here they loved it. Perhaps if its open the Navy would be the same. https://www.museumthcailand.com/en/museum/National-Aviation-Museum-of-The-Royal-Thai-AirForce

Pita vows Move Forward will return stronger after charter court verdict
marin replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
They did turn out giving MF a huge majority and Pita was set to be PM. But he was stopped by the junta appointed senate. They turned out big time and were robbed by military supported dinosaurs. Remember dinosaurs went extinct. They will again in this aging society. -
Bangkok to Vientiane visa run options
marin replied to Lodestone's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Good post. I just looked it up, it seems great, but Laos observes Songkran as well and it says the embassy and the evisa wont be working until the 18th. -

If you have to make the call phone number to phone number you may want to try 00500 + country code and number. I know to the USA its much cheaper Oz is more like 6B a minute.

You take the filters out to clean them. At least on any that I have owned over the last 35 years.

Chinese influencer’s food poisoning sparks Thai food hygiene row
marin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Eating raw seafood in an outdoor market with temperatures of 30 for a low and 40+ for a high for over 3 weeks. Not the smartest thing in the world to do. Tells more of the influencers intellect than getting food poisoning. I wonder if he knows 2+2=4.
