not sure about the Thai number registered in ‘your name’. I have Non-O, my own house & 4 bank accounts (3 bangkok & 1 kasikorn)

I never have did all my research before even traveling out, before even ever having a social media account. Everything was so much more easy before Facebook groups and smart phones.

you would think he would’ve done that in the first 3 months rather than , doing the red-light bars.

they were thai companies when building my house. Have receipts but can’t read Thai. Sorry, it’s all a crap shoot when going with outside companies. Most items outside of construction I try stay with the big companies like HomePro & Do Home as they have guarantees. Something you always have to ask the sales person is about, how long are the guarantees or warranty. Shockingly lots are none once leaving the store or just 30 days. Most manufacturer warranties aren’t honored in Thailand. Careful the fact that most also come with that stamp on the receipt, “no returns, no refunds, no exchanges”. For that reason I don’t use JIB Electronics anymore. Just beware of smaller outside companies & ask lots of questions.

All costs Thailand for “long terms” have increased greatly including medical expenses. However Thai Insurance companies are currently in question because they don’t like to pay out. Something to research at some point as there are lots now placing Ads as they’re getting dropped by clients for violating their own rules for not paying the bills. TiT, not is always what is seems to be or advertised as in Thailand. Good luck.

Just pick somewhere you plan to land at. They just want any address. When I applied I used my home address even though that it wasn’t where I was going nor it could be verified.

Pick something off Agoda for the timeframe but don’t confirm with Agoda.

If need do a ‘play by play’, probably time to get a girlfriend or a dog. (btw) in Thailand, a girlfriend would be cheaper.

blind & ignorance, well nice open. ‘YouTube’ is not an education which means, not skilled. Thai uncertified universities that allow rich families to buy their children/student’s degrees don’t mean they’re skilled. Most hospitals outside the 3 major Tourist districts (Pattaya, Phuket & Bangkok) don’t have real doctors nor technicians that can understand & operate any of the diagnostic equipment. They have no plumbers, no engineers, thus no qualified electrical technicians. Buy a house & you’ll figure it out, millennial tourist!

Go home, child.

That’s a scam but only been Pattaya twice as it’s my most disliked province. Go to either Bangkok Bank, Kasikorn, Siam or the pink one.
