  1. Easy; Patts, Pa-Tong, Nana Plaza BKK, yep Culture - Welcome Welcome...
  2. reeducation? He needs the crap kicking out of him, forced to eat dog $ h it then beating to a Pulp with, now lets see? A Chair, a Fan (intresting?) oh & a Mop - then Shoot the Ba $tard for good measure!
  3. as JayClay said, write out an explanation for Q9 as you posted, sign & date it then upload it - as long as they have a response you will prob find it all goes well, I last year had to upload similar for a SETV (some of the Qs related to METV only) so for these uploaded written statement Non-applicable for SETV (my visa was granted no probs, this was in UK via London embassy a year ago) Good Luck
  4. Well, the Mrs ask me nip out to Corner Shop & get some sausages... bumped into a couple of mates, went for a few pints and...
  5. Does make one wonder why UK is overflowing with Illegal immigration problems (maybe US too) maybe get the Thai IB's people on the case they could sort it all out without problems of 'No Passport' (UK) Walls (USA) Ahh just remembered why I like LOS, no Woke issues, easy tickets for freebies
  6. They are ok, as posted they will extend their Visa & return within the 90 day limit, I used to travel mainly like this from Manchester to Phuket with Etihad a couple times per yr, odd time was asked by Etihad just explained will be doing 30 day extension in country never had a problem - never with this. There was no issue with Thai E-visa online application for a single entry TV
  7. May have been 'British Nationals' they fit the MO, up to no good... this is how British MSM report cretins that look like these two deffo not Thais as they dont steal
  8. Just insured a bike last week above 250cc, mandatory Big Bike Insurance (3rd party only) was 845baht, ok I asked for Cover options at the bike Test/Tax place as wanted fully comp for me & my new bike, they explained they have a Bronze, Silver & Gold Cover Policies for additional protection/cover. Was 2499baht for the Gold Big Bike Policy (250cc +) Fully Comp Policy with Hospital coverage including In-Patient. Would have thought an Ex-Pat would make sure they have right amount of coverage... can understand Tourists overlooking these things or running the risk... Anyway Good luck to him but yeah - using my money to cover myself dont expect others to pay for me
  9. Passport is not proof of residency as been posted, Drivers licence if you have one is good to go as it shows your pic and address - what I used last year, recent utility bill with your name & address on it also ok - also make sure your uploads all same format that suits the Thai websites system, they do inform, I put all mine uploaded as jpeg format - had visa through in 48hrs no worries - good luck
  10. Fair enough, still a lot cheaper at 8K its 15K for same here (with this agent anyway) the 35K was initial 3mths stamp then the 12mth extension (15mths total) also, yes Phuket is premium charges but this is where I like myself - suits me
  11. Mmm bit broad ranging your friend of a friend - handholding... for what? could be anything... As said I used a bonifida quality Visa Agent used by all locally they all pay these rates... maybe your friend of a friend should go into to business he could make a Killing here... Each to there own of course I just post my own experience not hearsay, soz dont want to hijack the thread
  12. agree its a bit steep but hey wont break the bank... and no stress at all... had one visit to Phuket IMO in/out 2 mins to have pic taken... lots of people sat outside in Blazing sun waiting for what ever they had to wait for... To add I know otheres who have tried at Phuket to renew themselves and had the PP thrown back to gthem told to go where it was issued/stamped to renew, Phuket Immigration will not do... These peeps end up starting the process again at Phuket as said local to Phuket Immigration
  13. Yeah Im taking you learned fellows out there already knew its 15mths first time, I decided to use agent as locally here in Phuky there are that many people from a certain country trying/doing extensions things are taking a bit longer and good advice was for your first time just pay & use the services of an agent, I know some will baulk at the costs, but this is RL in Patong anyway, yes Nakon Nowhere may be peanuts etc Im just giving facts as they was a few weeks ago here in Patong (BTW the Agents I used are who all my friends use locally with excellent service reputation Im sure there are cheaper agents about but I go with real info and results) As said this year paid, for my first time - they charge 15K for renewal nxt year.. I will be doing myself though so no need to pay that
  14. Yep I came in visa exempt, used an agent & switched to O Visa, was easy and I went to agents straight away to get ball rolling (this was in Phuket) Agents fees a few weeks ago in Patong were; 1. Own money 800K in your own Bank account - 35,000Baht (option I used) I live in Phuket I want my stamp in Phuket (see below) 2. They 'assist' with the 800K 39,000Baht (You have to open a Bangkok Bank account through them additional cost of 9500Baht - incl a years Insurance) how ever this method can not be done in Phuket so entails a trip to Pattaya (where you go in person to Immigration) as thats where the stamp will be given... so prob another 5 or 6K baht on top. Personally was not for me as Id like to do my own extensions going forwards
  15. No one has mentioned the Police check in home country required for an OA or am I wrong...? Myself on an O as suits me fine 800K in bank
  16. Overall agree but then we are applying farang logic to the issue... 555
  17. Question to raise first is did the lady have a Licence and Insurance for the motorbike she was riding with no helmet... (it sort of works like that a lot here...) Hope she recovers ok and the guy (he may have had a medical emergency)
  18. Tell that to the O'l Bag in our local Post Office Mr Billy Big Potatoe' In past my UK IDP was only valid 1 year (had a few over the years all 1 yr...) Last yr its valid now 3 years as a direct result of Brexit thats what the old dear said was the reason, thats good enough for me... My IDP is three years now you can quote what ever you want British PO issue 3 years IDP to UK Citizens travelling to Thailand, but yes if you living here just get a Thai one, easy
  19. As for us Beloved Brits... a bonus of Brexit is UK IDP now valid for three yrs from date of issue just to throw in the mix lol... I always thought it was 3 months as after that you cease becoming a tourist or sumat along them lines, so you should take the Thai licences for Car & bike or what ever you choose for you, its a laf anyway or I should say an experiance (You say Deng Mr, Uhh me oh - jai Passed!) 555
