Feature song for the evening is Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire"

Well, since we're on the subject and since your site doesn't quote costs until Paypal checkout for banks and doesn't work at all for phone credit, how much for Bank transfers? Phone credits of THB200? We know that this other service is $2.67 on 200, what's yours, when it works? As little as THB500 on THB1000 is hefty in $ or %.

Measure twice, cut once, is all I can advise. And if $2 and change will sink the budget ship, that's a pity. I can see value at times to fund a BG or friend's phone, better than not being able to do it at all. And lower than a previously posted service here which wanted quite a bit, IIRC. But I was surprised to find the service providing a link that for AIS puts them out of business at least with me, as there's no point. The whole reason for the post was to provide help to BM's in a similar situation as me. If that is a problem, so be it.

My entire post directs you to the AIS website, how to sign on and add minutes for free (other than the cost of minutes) so yes, I have, and wrote about it to help other people. Well, other than you, I guess. I don't know how US$9.27 is 100% markup on 200B which is US $6.60. 100% of $6.60 is $6.60 so since it is not $13.20 then it is not 100%, n'est ce pas? I don't know what they charge for say 1000B. I suspect the fee is the same regardless of top-up making it decreasingly large as a mark-up, but since , I'll repeat, the point of my post was to tell BM's how to top up AIS directly, it

So I needed to refill my Thai cell which was expiring end of June whilst ( I found this site that does it for you, albeit at a bit of a surcharge, they do it direct, and you get a SMS that shows the deposit and the new balance and expiry date. I did this end of June and got one month and THB100, to July 30th. They do AIS and DTAC and it's better than nothing: http://thaiprepaidcard.com Here in Canada my AIS 1-2 cell works and I presume other countries so I can do the #121 to see the balance and so on, and receive SMS here as well. Unless you want to send them ID or do some Facebo

Wow that is only three times the size of my bedroom closet. Still barely $16,000 if you can live in 300 square feet (for example, you are a cat) would pay for itself in a couple years of say, RG monthly, albeit wwith them offering a far larger better space. I have spent more on airfare than his budget in 2011.

Another choice thread for pinning. Not this one per se but a price update one so we can be like Secrets or Addicts where every 5th thread is money related or a poll or a poll about budgets. I swear they all must be having to sell blood to get barfine money over there as it is constant down to the half cent.

You're there so go ask them. Take 5 slides with you and if they say yes see how good a job they do. The thing about slides is if you have 100's at some point the scanner is cheaper albeit boring as hell. The US market has shifted to outsourcing them to India where it is a pretty good deal if you've lots to do.

I worked almost every day and downloaded 6 newspapers a day to my iPad at Residence Garden and the signal was never dropped. And they gave me two ID's for the 2 devices. And it is a good hotel. They aren't quite $500 a month cheap but they're cheap enough.

Meet the Fasttrack person, get the CIP card and as you pass regular immigration go there and keep the card. You can use it to leave instead (same card) or later. I arrived on Cathay in J and it wasn't all that busy (leaving it wasn't either) but I used the cards in both directions anyway since every trip they are going to give them out again. If the day came that I was going to fly coach (unlikely) say just between HKG and BKK I could hang onto the cards for later.

The US dollar is a little weak lately. It's not really 9000 to 4 though. Maybe 5000 to 4 when they default in August.

Yup $50 is a deal breaker for many here for sure. There is one service for THB1,250. The 1,600 doesn't include the cart though, that's closer to 2,500. Cathay gives me these CIP passes in both directions, departure via the VIP and diplomat channel in about five minutes.

The fact it's four or five bacon, three eggs, half a plate of hash browns , toast , OJ and coffee for $4.25 CDN ($9,000 US) makes it a good deal tired, old, whatever, and they have enough Thai food and menus in Thai to keep your TG happy.

I prefer to sit in the lounge as there's free food and liquor inside along with the wi-fi.

Forgot - there are 2 TV sets, one in the bedroom and one in the living room. Unless you want to watch Thai soap operas or hopeless variety shows (in Thai) you'll appreciate the TG in the bedroom using the one while you watch something better (note - ANYTHING is better) in the living room.

Got to be honest, I haven't seen a ton of hotels there, but based on the service and offer of the RG, the fact they handle English, the wi-fi, elevator and coffee shop and pools and for $45 with tax, I didn't hesitate to book there and I have booked there for three weeks more at the end of next month. I don't tamper with success. I really don't care about cost once I find good service and quality. The fact the bedroom is separate from the living room was icing on the cake. I found the location away from the noise to be a godsend. And it is 30 cents and 5 minutes by baht bus to all of t

When I first read the title of the post I thought they had a visa for people that needed Viagra.

It's free in the Cathay Pacific lounge for sure.

No, he'd have tpyerd Beer and fuckshitbastardfuckshitcuntcrapass dancing.

Please check your keyboard as the space bar is not working right and the return key, too much. To search you type what you want to search up to the right there where it says search. No credit card at all and you've never made a hotel reservation in the past many years? Most hotels hold reservations to a certain hour then can release the room for no-shows and the reason for a deposit is they charge the card/use the deposit and you have rented the room whether you show up or not. There is no hard an fast rule to not stay in a hotel that wants a deposit - with a credit card they don't n

CCU means Cardiac Care Unit. Not a different level of an ICU vs. a different type of ICU for cardiac patients, and some not all that intensive care actually, like after an angioplasty. Since he was a trauma patient ICU is where he'd go.

I could never understand the appeal of fake crap, since if you can afford it then buy the real thing. If you can't you friends know it so you look like a poseur with obvious fake crap. And most of it is crap quality as well so you get mediocre wear and tear. So less crap for sale is a good thing.

None to Bkk mind you.

Handy for hit and run or bank robberies as the witnesses on either side of the street will describe it differently .

Both U-Tapao (Pattaya) and Don Muang are domestic with rare exceptions (like Thai to LAX) so it's BKK for you. Check online for pricing but you may encounter issues with using a non Thai credit card on a Thai site. You aren't going to save much. An establish travel agent in Pattaya can likely handle this easily.
