  1. Would it not be simpler to open an account with Kbank, assuming they'll have you?
  2. A tattoo eh? What's next, a Harley-Davidson and a "pitty"? ????
  3. "used to come up quite often" not "comes up". OP's question is the first I've seen post-Covid. The gist of the posts were yes, you could ask exactly what you said, or words to that effect. Results varied. No, I don't have any links and won't be searching for any because I'm off out for a night on the town LOL.
  4. I have. It used to come up quite often in this forum. The rule of thumb was that you could ask the IO to stamp your in visa exempt instead of using the TR but YMMV as the Americans say.
  5. you won't get anywhere near that with only a few mil. a hundred should do it. edit: oops, somebody beat me to it ????
  6. Indeed, and that's why I have assimilated into the local culture and happily pay an agent to get my extensions for me. It might be a tad more expensive than bribing an immigration officer with a bag of chips or a garland of flowers but I never have to set foot in an immigration office ever again, touch wood.
  7. I don't live in Samut Prakan, I'm asking on behalf of a friend I'm trying to help out.
  8. I asked before but got no responses. I think most ANers just assume that all offices support the use of visa agents and that said agents are easy to find.
  9. Except that they don't service the SP office and if you want the Full Monty they send your passport to Lord only knows where! ????
  10. Oof, not cheap in Bangkok...
  11. OK then, tell us what you think "farang" means ????
  12. Thanks but I was looking for actual experience rather than a Google search. Asking for a friend who has a low tolerance for dealing with the Thai runaround. He contacted Thai Visa Centre earlier in the year but they couldn't help him.
  13. They're just trying to Move Forward by pricing foreigners out ????
  14. Thailand wouldn't have any proper infrastructure if it wasn't for foreigners coming here and showing them the right way. Everything would topple over in a storm because they didn't mix the concrete properly ????
  15. Do you have contact details of agents who are confirmed to provide handholding service for Samut Prakan office?
  16. you're a bit late to the party mate, it's all done and dusted.
  17. "Our culture is rich, diverse, and deserves to be treated with utmost respect." I'm supposed to respect this?
  18. Your don't have 1 up / 1 down fibre optic? I'd die if I had to use DSL ????
  19. A normal person would ask Siri ????
  20. why, what's wrong with the information you've been given above, it answers your question?
  21. How very quaint they are across the pond. The Nike logo isn't a "tick", it's a "swoosh".
  22. @DrJack54has provided more detail about the funds seasoning issue at Jomtien.
  23. There's a made-up rule called "Stay Thailand too much". Normally this gets invoked when you try to enter the country but at some land borders they see your history and decide you're not going to be allowed back Visa Exempt. So they deny you permission to exit because...well that part I haven't figured out yet. It could be too protect you as border bouncers may not have come prepared for a trip to Phnom Penh to get a tourist visa. Or it could be they just don't want to deal with the hassle of denying you re-entry when you bounce back from Cambodia.
  24. Do you already have 800k in the bank for at least two months? Jomtien are insisting that the funds are seasoned for in-country non-O applications.
