  1. I want to renew my UK Passort. I live in the North East and have absolutely no desire to go to Bangkok. Can anyone recommend a good agent who offers a full service.
  2. Everytime some guy takes his own live out they come........."The police did it".........Wasn't exactly you everyday normal joe was he? He'd have been taken to the Croc farm and never seen again and we would be told he was realeased if the police had something to hide.
  3. Have you tried telling Interpol you are coming.......they have been very busy lately and may have missed you last time???? BTW no payment is required
  4. I can't say I saw the words "Famous Thai lawyer" did you? Could have been Denny Crane or Perry Mason :0)
  5. I moved up country and everyone told me I would have to do my new 90 days report at the immigration office which is hours away and a full day is gone.. So I called and asked if I could post my info including a copy of my lease a TM47 and a TM30 and the young lady said no problem. In 3 days they sent me back a new 90 day report and as my house is on the mother in laws land they sent her copy to me also. Since then I have done all my 90 days reports on line and I get an email confirming its in motion and one saying it has been done as quick as within 24 hours....Just download them, print and stick it in my passport. One thing I did notice......I applied early because of Songkhran and my new 90 days was valid from the day after I applied NOT from the date my previous one ran out.
  6. Hope you got sorted ok. I had to copy everything..My 90 day report my arrival card and of course my visa. What a strange question or is it me? 100% you need a valid visa in your passport????
  7. I wondered the same thing maybe both have yo do seperately and the foreigners never. Also that American..how on earth did immigration know he was on overstay? It can only have been a few days after his due date as they had been looking form him. Maybe someone has had something aginst the guy and reported him?
  8. If they were half awake as a company they would ask for these things when you open your account and no have you wasting hours trying to find out what the hell an IC number is when asked to add your bank account. Someone suggested phone your band I did a nd they had no idea what the letters IC stood for, It's like me asking a Thai for his PN and expecting him/her to know what the hell I am talking about. My advice is go shopping to laxada who are much more organised and foreiner friendly
  9. I thinks it's a case of Thailand saying we don't want any part in your silly war because to them one lot is as bad as the other.
  10. Yep Tuesday the 4th
  11. Well I definitely had to..don't get confused with Covid waiting time,you can book today for tomorrow now.
  12. When I got my 2 year motorcycle licence and renewed my 5 year car licence they asked for 2 separate letters confirming my address and would not accept a copy. You book your appointment here https://gecc.dlt.go.th it has every office in Thailand in a drop down...once you do I suggest you take a screen shot (Windows key + prtsc key. open paint and paste) then print a copy. Also you will be asked to watch a 1 hour long video and asked a couple of questions like when do you start to signal (30mt) once you pass that again take a screen shot of the certificate that shows up and paste it into Paint....save both a JPG's. and take those with you. It's a piece of cake if you can get there before it opens you'll be in and out in an hour.
  13. 100% they will NOT accept your yellow book..good idea to take it with you to immigration when going to get a letter. Also take a couple of passport pics as they glued mines to the letter and stamped over it
  14. Nothing new in Thailand Memories of an ex-cop who was in charge of purchasing of computers for all police stations in Thailand His wife allegedly opened a computer company and he bought all the computers from her instead of IBM 136 million baht was pocket change to him
  15. Typical mistake frang make. They think all it takes is money. Once lawyers get involved and the media buying your way out becomes near impossible. The egg lady is not some farm hand (no disrespect meant) that will lie down quietly She's obviously a well healed intellegent business woman. In short the Lambo guy is in deep doo-doo and it will cost him plenty.
  16. Just got back today from renewing my motorcycle licence........what a nightmare it could have been if not for pure luck. First stop was to get a medical certificate ..cost 50 baht which was blank and had to fill my own name in and passport number Duh!! My friend went to the same place to renew his licence and they didn't want a medical certificate but anyway they took mines. Next step was go online AT HOME sit the test, took a screen shot of the pass and printed up a copy. Then it was to book an Appointmenent with DLT Sakon Nakhon and I got one for 9am to 11am screenshot and printed that up. Printed up and signed visa and info page of passport signed every copy in blue ink. Now it was just a simple case of getting up at 4.am to be at Thai Immigrartion for 8am. Her indoors parents decided they would come for a day out. Now I had already sent a copy of my lease etc etc and was regisred with Thai immigration for my 90 day report So they had confirmation of where I was staing as they sent us receipts for the TM30 and the TM 47 for my landlady who just happens to be my g/f mother..it's complicated. We get there at 8.am and a Thai immigration policeman pulls up a few minutes later and asks what I want. Nice guy very polite takes my passoprt and by 9.30 am I have a letter confirming my address but not without an unexpected glitch. The guy comes out and asks me for a copy of my land ladies house book. Considering I am registed there already I am left wondering why as I have never been asked for this before in BKK or Phitsanulok. So two things..By pure chance my Landlady has come with me and lo and behold she has her blue book with her or I was goosed. Then he asked me for a photo of myself and by chance I had 4 old ones in my wallet. Again the last time I got a letter was at Phisanulok and there was no photo requirement. Lady just looked me up on compater saw my 90 day reprt was in order and proted a letter up boss signed it done. Anyway we get to Sawan Daeng Din DLT and we have everything. One problem!! there are two DLT offices in Sakon Nakhon and we are at the wrong one we passed the other about 45 minutes beforehand. However this very cute young lady gave me a smile and said don't worry I will put it through here for you. Great go to the counter hand over everything and the guy checks everything is in order. But alas!!!! he says I need a copy of your landladies ID and I am gobsmacked. She doesn't have it with her. Why I don't know but he insists he must have it despite the fact Thai Immigration have given me a letter confirming my address with my photo attached and huge red stamp over it and signed by an officer, However Father has his ID so I take that copy it he signs it and give it to the guy. He barely looks at it and takes it with the rest and tell us to come back in the afternoon for the test. She points out colours and you do that old brake test so very easy. My curent licence runs out in October but my birthday was in September so I get my licence 6 years. Very advabced by the way with holograms to stop faking them I suppose. I don't know if this is nationwide now but fair warning to anyone who rents. get copies of your landladies ID and hpusebook plus take a few passport photos with you to immigration and to DLT or you could end up having to go through the whole thing again. This seems to be a new ruling as there is no mention of this requirement on either BLT ot immigration websites
  17. We got Falangs and Farangs falling out of buidlings or ar they being pushed? BTW it is F̄rạ̀ng neither of the above
