No, I probably have the longest ride from Northern Naklua to 13/3 near Walking Street, 100baht. 50 70 baht for shorter rides. Rarely wait for more than 2-3 minutes. I was going to ship one of the bikes from Khon Kaen but as long as Bolt survives and doesn't get greedy I'll leave them.

Probably a matter of course for peak season!

One sort of change that I was noticing, but it could be the time of night that I choose Bolt. I got the opinion that they were trying for added value for their drivers. By this I mean that rather than say wait 10 minutes for a standard Bolt, I would stump up say, another thirty baht for a Premium ride in three minutes. I did this a couple of times but I think that it all comes down to time of day, destination and location. Why any sane driver wants to get into the thick of Soi Buakhao is a mystery, but that's my general destination.

Very glad the company was able to weather this. Did you notice any increase in fares?

Confirm, I live off the BB routes and take Bolt several times a week. Find them about as cheap and plentiful as M/C taxis. Im old so even use them short distance, my home bar 13/3 to my St bar 13/1. Few years ago I would have just walked, if I walked now wouldn't be much point going to the St bar.

I was in Thailand a few days ago. I used Bolt every few days and reports of it's death are grossly exaggerated. Sent from my CPH2669 using Tapatalk

Submitted the application for retirement benefits online today. Interestingly, they allowed me to select December 2025 as the start date of benefits, which would mean I'll get a check next month. Fingers crossed! -

I had to (past tense, did it yesterday) do this because somehow my birth hospital didn't notify the SSA of my birth. That's usually done automatically, accounting for why most people aren't aware that it happens. Interestingly, I found out about this when I tried to make a login for the "my SS" online service a few years ago. I could get to a certain point in the process but no farther. Called the office and the guy said, "Oh, that's because you don't exist!", and fixed it. He told me at the time that all my benefits were secure and there was no problem, but that I'd have to present a -
