  1. You can drive drunk three times before you lose your license. In what world does this make sense?
  2. Same thing happened to me! When I moved to Bangkok from Khaolak, CW told me “they made a mistake in Phang Nga “. I asked how that was my problem but they just walked away. 20,000 baht later an agent “fixed” it!
  3. UJ, Can you clarify this? I thought you need both insurance AND 800k in the bank to get a renewal?
  4. UJ, 800,000 total will have only been there for 5 weeks. I had maintained a balance around 600k because I thought I was going to qualify under the marriage extension. Trying to get the Covid yextension. Will go back to CW next week.
  5. Dr. Jack, this is what I am working on. Don’t know what reason I I’ll give for Covid extension but the IO said to do it. Hoping for the best outcome.
  6. Exactly. I spoke with an agent that said if they did the 60 day extension I would have to do all subsequent extensions through them as it would be done outside of BKK. What a deal!????
  7. UJ, yeah they said that they might do that but I have to come landlords id, lease etc.
  8. I have an OA visa. Because of mistaken info given to me by an agent, the money I have in the bank will not have been there long enough when my visa runs out. So today I went with my wife and all the right papers to CW to apply for a 60 day extension to visit my wife. I was told, contrary to what I read here, that I cannot get this kind of extension on an OA visa. So what do I do know? Either leave the country or pay an agent. I so frustrated that I can’t even explain it. I have more than the required amount in the bank and had I known that I couldn’t switch to an extension based on marriage it would have been there for the time necessary. It’s all too much. I don’t know what else I can do. Maybe move back home? Getting too old for this.
  9. Last question I hope. Is the 60 day Covid extension done in Bangkok,at CW or Muang Thong Thani?
  10. ubon Joe, getting wrong info is nothing new and surprisingly easier than right info! Thanks for the advice!
  11. Dr Jack. Visit wife? That is the reason I give to them? Even though we have been living together? Forgive my lack of understanding. As I stated previously. I had a stroke a few months ago and my brain is a little strange since then!
  12. back again. Wife spoke to someone at immigration and they said that `I couldn't get a 60 day extension on an `OA. SORRY TO keep kicking this horse but I don't get any of this! Does anyone know why this is? ( I don't mean why I am not getting it. I realize I am being a littlle dense!)
  13. Dr Jack. yeah. That is what I am doing. Unfortunately because I thought I only needed 400.000 in the bank the 800.000 will be there but not long enough so I have to deal with that. To make matters worse I just realized my visa expires on October 26th. I arrived in Thailand on November 11! I had a stroke a few months ago so I get a little fuzzy sometimes. This will all work out just going to cost me. I learned an important lesson though about trusting some people to do their job.
