    Thanks for the info Sustra, we don’t hear much from Phuket these days.

    Phuket is still a wonderful place...kata is beautiful and relaxing...not a place for hunting...but beach is wonderful

    Sorry to hear that Sustra. That's the last thing you need on your holiday.  

    If it was outside a bank, report it to the bank.

    If it was outside a 7/11 or somewhere not the bank, report it to both the 7/11 and the bank.

    Which bank was it?

    Also contact your credit card company back home.

    Kungsri...ATM on the street...I've reported to my bank and kungsri as well ...I just wait by now what my bank says...as from kungsri there was no help at all...going phi phi tomorrow early...hope my money will come back

    Soi Diamond?? You mean Soi Yamato Mr.Sustra. But you are correct, it is lob wedge away from La Bamba, I think somebody said it is the location which was once "The Dogs Bollocks Bar", which would be kind of ironic.:biggrin:

    Yes...too many Leo's...correct soi yamato

    Here's the schedule (sometimes they add extra busses though). Price went up from 120 to 130 baht.  The Bell Bus is now 300.

    thanks again...i'll catch it...and i thank you for the information that actually my lb should have given...ok...not talking about it as she stays just behind the bus station...but as i pay...probably not important...starting to have a bad feeling about it

    You can buy a ticket for 120 baht on the ground floor of the airport near Door 8 on the ground floor.   When you get off the bus in Jomtien ignore the parked baht busses in the parking lot. Just walk about 15 meters to the street and get on a moving baht bus to Jomtien and when you get off pay 10 baht.    If you are staying at Katty's it's only a 5 minute ride from the bus station to Soi 4.

    Have fun Sustra!   :drinks:

    i ' ll try... thanx...report will follow

    Hi Sustra4 I got that bus on my last trip to Jomtien in January. But the bus leaving shortly after I arrived was fully booked so I had to wait 2 hours in airport for the next one.

    Bear that in mind as you might not want to hang around in airport for 2 hours. It didn't matter to me as if I had got to my accommodation on earlier bus I would only have had to wait in condo lobby for 2 hours as I couldn't check in until 1400.

    When you get to Jomtien bus station you can get baht bus to Soi 4, but if you don't have much luggage you can walk there in 10 minutes.

    i hope the bus will not be full at 7 a.m..being september...my  plane direct flight to BKK is landing at 5.15 am...otherwise i'll catch a meter taxi. I usually like to wait...so to smoke a few cigarettes after a 11 hours flight.( sooner or later i'll quit...smoking i mean...not flying )

    I will not stay in soi 4 this time....just a few days in jomtien and fly to Phuket....need to swim in clear waters. Swimming in Jomtien...i don't have sins so serious to expiate

    Welcome to the forum Ring Master!   :drinks:

    If you deplane at 3PM you will most probably make the 4PM bus.

     

    I suppose when booking the bus you could list a different flight which is scheduled to arrive befo

    http://airportpattayabus.com

    With the Jomtien Bus you pay 120 baht at the counter in the airport.  

     

    I arrive in BKK at 5.45 am after tomorrow ..and going to jomtien...now...I understand that I can buy the ticket for this bus there...no need to pre-book....am I right? I just have 400 bath left in my pocket since last trip

    ( A taxi would cost me 1200...)

    The airport named U-Tapao (ohh-ta-POW) is closer to Pattaya than Swampy but is still a bit of a drive. Likely easier than going to Swampy though. It was a US airbase during the Vietnam war and now is a joint Thai military air base and commercial airport. Bangkok Air has been flying the route for many years. But BKK Air generally flies prop planes on the route (limited overhead space, baggage weight limits and small seats) so the AirAsia A320 jet is a big improvement.

    thanks for the information...also seems very reasonable priced...€ 70 round trip for 2...obviously plus the luggage weight ( she is going to overpack with make up and lb stuff... )

  10. this looks like a joke but it isn't. I'll go to Thailand next week and booked a hotel in Ko Chang for a few days. When showing the pictures of the hotel room that is actually a suite ( obviously trying to stay on a budget ) my lb just told me " my room is better looking "

    Now...as i pay her rent...( 8.000 ) what would you do? take it as a joke..or tell her to fuck off?

    The Bank of Thailand cut interest rates a quarter of a percent today.   All else being equal, that means a weaker baht.  However, this has a been a turbulent month worldwide in the bond market with yields plummeting across the globe.

    was expecting this after China...New Zeland and India as well...
