Opening a wise account? They won’t send you a debit card but you can transfer to a thai friends account and withdraw with him

Bkk hostpital in Bangkok has a visa department. Don’t know what exactly they do, but i guess they know what to do. I’m only there outpatient but usually their service is excellent if you understand their English 😱edit: just saw that you don’t mean Bangkok Hospital which my friends snd me call bkk hospital. But most private hospitals have similar services. Disclaimer: I don’t know much about overstay but have been to multiple hospitals here including samitivej where i paid cash because they have no direct billing with my insurance. I found if you ask them for help, they will help you or at least point you in the right direction

@Ronnie *****
is collect coins in a jar and regularly put them in a ziplock bag and bring them with me when i take the BTS. I bet with condo security or other people how much they think it is. They always say too much and i win almost every time but my rabbit card is happy about it

Try the coin dragon machines at BTS stations

they’re called nowhealth international. Sometimes difficult to deal with because you have to explain things to them as thai work different

It’s definitely beneficial if you need to go to one of those private hospitals. They’re not cheap. My mom is currently in Bangkok Hospital pattaya after her kidneys suddenly failed. Luckily she has an insurance that pays the dialysis and stuff. I had to pay 40k as a security because the insurance didn’t immediately sent the guarantee of payment. I have an international expat health insurance which covers even pre existing conditions

In my first condo, my only choice was true because they installed the fiber already. Maybe that was a lie but I’m happy with them so far. Even let me use my own router

Try telling them that you just come from a birthday party and thai people stapled them together around your neck. Works well with thai baht. Good luck 😂
