Thanks JingThing and everyone you just sorted it for us.

Kind regards Shak

It's for a friend, he converted a tourist visa to a retirement visa which was approx 1 year ago, his first initial renewal is due in approx 3.5 months.

Retirement Visa Query!

With a retirement visa at the end of the first year. Do you have to show funds in bank (800,000bht) upon renewing/extending the visa? at immigration?

Any info much appreciated.

Regards, Shak

I Just spoke with Pro language and they are telling me that its too soon and are "worried" for immigration and for my visa's sake to change and renew within this week, spoke with PLC "the new school" and they also said that i can renew with the old schools extension paperwork "Pro Language" and after that I can move to PLC the new school and they will inform immigration that I have changed school, I will probably have to go into immigration with documentation about changing school etc. But from what I gather I wont need to leave the country and everything should be okay apart from visiting immigration. As I don't speak Thai well and this is Thailand I don't know if it will be okay but i'm relying on both schools info at this point. Or its back to Vientiane for me lol.

Looks like Australia network is hosting it at one hour delayed.

I guess fox footy will be hosting it live.

So my question is where would be the best place to watch the game in the Jomtien Area?

And if I stay at this school until after the first ext. you think it will be a hassle?

@ Lopburi3

I have a single entry of 90 days and the 90 days is due for extension in 10 days time from now (which will be the first extension). The reason for changing schools is there are too many students in the class and progress is limited due to this. I self study and am starting with a private tutor also, for me 2 hrs X 2 days per week with 15-20 people in one classroom is a waste of my time. I would like to change to a 3 person group maximum, PLC in Pattaya preferred option, or one on one tutoring with visa inclusive with a recommended "experienced" teacher. ?

Any info would be great.

Yep, I remove the latest Java, good to go.

I have been on my Ed visa for 3 months approx and would like to know if it is possible to change schools without having to start a new Visa, and by that I mean Leaving the country to Start the Application process again.

Any Info would be appreciated.

I know TIT but we are not living in Nakhon Knowhere.

True cant provide anything, the only lines in our Soi which is Soi 12 Thapraya is TOT and 3BB, look like im calling 3bb in the morn.This is rediculous, 2mbps atm. BTW ive been having trouble with DTAC lately maybe due to their 3g war. ???

Trying to hear back from True. Dont want to be bound in a contract with 3bb but might have.

This is the latest they are supplying me with! LOL.

Calling True today to see if their exchange is closer, and we have true tv so maybe we could get a package, god I have to have some luck lol.

I have a condo near Pratamnack Hill. I used to have TOT which as you say is crap. I switched to 3BB and i must say it is a lot better. I hardly ever lose a signal and speeds are good, even at 590 baht a month.

Where you locked into a contract? Last time i spoke with 3bb they wanted some 5000thb approx deposit which I would imagine I would lose if I opted out of the contract.

3BB turned out much more reliable for us than TOT.

Where do you live? Pattaya? Pratamnak?

Latest update, technician called, TOT cannot support 10mb where I am so they have lowered it to 7mb. Fantastic, next move is True, anyone else using True internet in the Pratamnak area? around soi 12 Thapraya?

Stable bank, Ubank in aus. No term deposit, transfer to Tland when you need it. Approx 5.25% per annum. Or have a dabble on the asx.

Call from Skype if you have it on your PC, cheaper and they should have the international phone number link on their website, just one click to call.

Spoke with TOT today, so far no more drop outs suddenly, very coinsidental, and now they are checking with the technician to sort the speeds out. Ill give them a week or so to sort it, but 1 year contract with 3bb I can't justify that after hearing other bad stories. Fibre would great but I don't think think they have rolled it out in our soi as yet.

Thanks Nana Cowboy I wondered if it was worth it.

Im in a condo on pratamnak hill and have TOT internet which is just terrible, drops out more often than not and the download speed can be reduced to 1mb at times.

Is anyone else having problems with them or better yet does anyone on Pratamnak have 3bb? Im thinking of switching just to give them a try but I have read on older threads that 3bb is just as useless.

Any Opinions would be appreciated.
