  1. Filed mine January 1st the F Bar only takes 5 minutes or so online if you have all of your account numbers and balances in front of you I do it and be done with it very early every year
  2. It was a k bank ATM the one in front of our building I have no idea how it works it just did very strange
  3. I was using my Bangkok Bank app and I withdrew from My K Bank account all good for me
  4. I needed to go to an ATM to get some cash with my phone using the app when it got to where you need to press on the bank on the far right there was a little arrow I pressed that and it asked me if I wanted to use my k bank account or my Bangkok bank account. I'm not sure if this is new or not but now with the Bangkok Bank app you can get money from your k bank account. Makes life that much more convenient for me anyway both Banks one withdrawal app.
  5. Apologies if this has been mentioned already I haven't seen it here but there is a very large area that had a huge Banner on it on 3rd Rd Opposite I believe it's soi 21 the same one that PP massage is on. It says something regarding a new beer bar complex being built I'm sure it's just an April Fool's joke not only is that just more beer bars that aren't needed but that is a bad location in my opinion. Unless they've got big parking plans and still they've got to have a major draw to get people up there I would think. I just can't see another 10 or 15 bar complex springing up and succeeding but what do I know
  6. Both Bangkok Bank and kbank accounts I hold I have yet to have any issues when the banking apps came into play it really made life easy. Not having to have an ATM card anymore to take money from the ATM machine is brilliant I'm never losing a card in a machine that's for sure cuz I don't need one. What I do find interesting is in the 20 years I've lived here and had a couple of bank accounts I've never gotten a single piece of mail from the bank. I'm not sure they send out statements not that I really care don't need it everything online. I wish my US Bank was as efficient as these Thai Banks I have
  7. My good buddy striderman may he rest in peace used to come in to Secrets at opening about 8:00 p.m. when the dancers would start. He would have a couple of bottles of Chang and give me his bin and asked me to hold on to it he'll be back. He'd be back about midnight to end the evening have a couple more bottles of Chang and then pay his Bin. He did this so as to save him from having to give a second tip. I used to give him shit about it all the time we used to laugh about it my buddy Steve
  8. Keeping in mind that there is a huge difference in a cheap Charlie and a guy who is just living within his means.
  9. My honest opinion is nicely fitted out I just don't understand how they'll separate from one bar to the next. We went in sat in the middle and a girl with a drink card from another bar not the bar we were sitting in front of rushed over to get our drink order. So it seems that all those tables in the middle it's a free-for-all for customers and for the bars to go get their customers. The problem is going to come from you'll have a bar that will have a group of very aggressive service girls and they'll be running up and down that place not mattering where their bar is located in the complex because they can take drink orders throughout. I can see this becoming a problem between the bars. The Winn bar had food catered in for the grand opening from a Chinese place here in town very nice but again here comes the problem the food is at their bar but you've got 200 people sitting in the middle of the place not sitting at any specific bar having drinks from all the other bars. Well I Can Only Imagine that some of those guys are going to take advantage and Wander Over and Avail themselves of the offerings despite not even drinking or having drinks from that particular bar. I think the customer prices are pretty much in line I think they're. Fair Lady drinks at 170 baht with the girls getting 70 of that as a commission. If you're sitting in the middle and say you order a drink from Caesar's Palace bar and a girl comes over to have a chat with you from Planet Hollywood Bar and you decide you'd like to buy her a drink now you have 2 bins. One of our group asked the girls if after getting the drink they could wander through the complex and have a look with their drink in their bin to which she replied no you have to settle your been here before you can walk through and look at the other places. I understand why they want you to do this because there is going to be without question some bins that are missing at the end of the night with people wandering through before settling up at the particular bar where they got the drink from It was considerably cooler in the complex than it was outside so the air conditioning was working as the owner said 880000 BTU's the electric bill is going to be absolutely massive. The music level I thought was just about right you could hold a conversation and hear what the others were saying this is when the DJ was there before the band started we left before the band got going so can't comment on that. The bar fine is 800. As another board member that we met there said this could very well work for the tourists but I don't think they're going to get a tremendous expat following or guys that have been coming for years and I could be wrong it would not be the first time. I wish them the best it takes a big set of balls to get into a venture like this
  10. Yes I get down there a few times a year for 4 or 5 days each trip I really like it
