Cheap very high speed Internet for Bali
That download speed is pretty sweet, upload is decidedly less than stellar. How much does that cost you per month? I just let my Biznet Home lapse after a number of years. I was spending 630,000 per month for badly degraded gamers connection.- BliGundul

Cheap very high speed Internet for Bali
Biznet Home has gone way down hill since I started this thread. Their system is in terrible condition in my area of Kerobokan. Way overpriced for the speeds I have been getting for some time now.- BliGundul

Extension of my ITAS E31a just costed me an extra 1000 USD
While it is a positive that efforts are being made to bring online access to Immigration matters, it is still very much a work in progress. I would be very cautious about trusting ChatGPT for legal matters of such profound personal and fiscal consequence. There are still lots of pages which...- BliGundul

Extension of my ITAS E31a just costed me an extra 1000 USD
Bureaucracy, the gift that keeps on giving...on a good day...like the day after Hell freezes over. I am sorry to hear your story, thanks for posting. I am reminded of the old adage "if it can go wrong? It will go wrong." As unpleasant and traumatic as this has been, perhaps there are others...- BliGundul

Economical agency to do Spouse KITAS to KITAP uograde?
Thanks very much, I thought that after 2 years one could convert to a KITAP, but had heard conflicting and presumably inaccurate information. I really appreciate your input! 30 years down this bureaucratic path, I have a profound lack of enthusiasm for it all. I am glad to see the evolution of...- BliGundul

Economical agency to do Spouse KITAS to KITAP uograde?
I am married for 24 years to, and sponsored by my Balinese wife, who is set up in the online Immigration system, as an approved sponsor. Last year I had an agent handle my second Kitas extension, but am curious how difficult it might be to do, by ourselves online. So I am now on my third year...- BliGundul

New vs Used Car Buying Experience
Brothers by different mothers...of Invention? While the owner of this rocket didn't feel the need for a full time police motorcycle escort? When I watched him trying to pull out of this entirely unobstructed parking space head first? It made me wish that I had followed him and videoed it, to...- BliGundul

New vs Used Car Buying Experience
The service manage at Suzuki knows where to access things which are no longer available from the Suzuki system and inventory. He lets me know, then buys them from whichever local vendor has the best alternative options, and I reimburse him directly. He gets great prices, and always gives me...- BliGundul

New vs Used Car Buying Experience
I typically take it for routine service whenever I sense a change, or issue. I have a tendency to opt for a major service occasionally, despite the recommendation for a minor service. The mechanics there enjoy working on my ride, because...they probably never have, on something that old...and...- BliGundul

Yes it is routinely serviced by the Suzuki team, and I am good friends with the service manager, who always goes the extra mile.- BliGundul

New vs Used Car Buying Experience
Great anecdotes, yeah, I can imagine your stepfather was somewhat less than thrilled once he figured out what had happened! lol I was recently shocked to learn that my collector friend has also never bought a new car, which blew my mind. We were recently visited by my nephew and his family...- BliGundul

New vs Used Car Buying Experience
I am reminded of the line from Men in Black..."over my dead body! Your terms are acceptable" A very old friend here, has about a dozen cars and 30 or more motorcycles, an amazing collection. The cars and bikes range from extremely quirky to very high end, all of which were purchased second...- BliGundul

New vs Used Car Buying Experience
Great thread, fun read, great input. I am 74, have lived in Bali for almost 30 years, first here in 77...when Kuta rush hour traffic was rice farmers pedaling home from their rice paddies. Not so different, right? In those days Kuta was far away from Legian, before it ate all the smaller...- BliGundul

Bali visa application turn around time from Embassy in Singapore?
Ungodly expensive is meant to be a relative term compared to Indonesian living costs, to which I have become accustomed, after living in Bali for 27 years. If I am not mistaken, and it certainly wouldn't be a first, the Road Tax for owners of cars registered in SIngapore is North of a juta per...- BliGundul
