  1. Lol, you are paying an agent 6k just to go to immigration on your behalf. Crazy. In Pattaya 12,500 including the 1,900 for the extension gets you the extension without having to have the 800k in the bank and its a 100% legal extension stamp.
  2. No its not. Walk into the agent in Pattaya with your Bangkok Bank book, 2 photos and 12,500 baht. Visit the assigned bank with the agent. Visit immigration outside to have photo taken. 2 days later you have a totally legal 1 year extension of stay. Easy.
  3. Yes of course. Its a 90 day report for being in the country, if you leave and return, the clock resets.
  4. Oh dear, you really need to learn how to read before you point the finger at others. The report said it was a different pier than the one quoting 400 to 600 baht. " At the pier in question there is signage stating charges of 2,000 - 3,000 - 5,000 baht. But the sign is out of the way hidden from view. The real charge for an hour from two other piers in the area should be 400-600 baht depending on whether it is a paddled boat or a motorized one. Local operators said the prices were fixed and suggested that the rip-off occurred outside the market area."
  5. Lol you are correct that you cant keep up with changes. This changed about 7 to 8 years ago.
  6. Why are you posting this to me? I think its meant for someone else
  7. Nothing to do with immigration who are under the remit of the Thai immigration police. The consulates and embassys are under the remit of the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
  8. Unfortunately thats garbage as well. I bring Yorkshire tea bags over with me which are the best by far. They can also bought at expats shops like Siamburys in Pattaya.
  9. Lol why are you all messing about. IPTV is the way forward. Wizz TV is used by many of the bar owners in Pattaya. Its 3100 baht for the year via their app which you can access with an Android Tv or an Android box. You need a decent wifi or internet connection. In Thailand I have Wizz Tv. Have a look here https://www.wizztv.co.uk/downloads It can be used in the UK as well as they are a UK company.You get all sports across the world, movies, catch up and video on demand. You will need an android TV or an android box. Something like this https://www.amazon.co.uk/H96-MaxSmart-Android-Bluetooth-Receiver/dp/B09TZXJMQ4/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?keywords=h96+max+x2&qid=1673699913&quartzVehicle=16-2083&replacementKeywords=h96+max&sr=8-4 Its easy to set up and they support you online. Easy
  10. They have been building it for at least 5 years now, I can see it from my house. They stopped work on it 2 years ago although the access road was completed for the stray dogs to access the place and the boy racers to race up.
  11. No wrong stadium. That was at the old Eastern stadium about a km from there.
  12. OP is on the weed
  13. She is not your wife then. Village ceremonies dont count. Why dont you marry your girlfriend its easy.
  14. The poster quoted 33k at the copy place next to immigtation in Pattaya for an extension of stay not a first conversion ie Non O plus extension of stay. Thats about 23k in Pattaya.
  15. 33k wow thats 20k too much
  16. The difference is that these officers are wearing police uniforms and tricking motorists that they are police by turning on the flashing lights and sirens to get through the traffic.
  17. Great post. I am counting the days until the Christmas and New Year mob, especially those rude Russions go home. Not too worried about the Chinese they dont frequent the beach or the bars.
  18. Thats imaterial. You are using an agent to do your extension because although you have the qualfying funds (65k month), you choose for the agent to do the legwork for you. Thats why its only 8k. I am speaking about not having the funds and the agent providing the 800k into the bank to satisfy immigration. In Pattaya thats 12,500 to 12,900
  19. Pin Up, XS and Palace are on Walking St. They contain many small girls. They are good to look at but their sole objective is to get as many lady drinks as they can. No good for a cheap night out. Very expensive. Kink is on LK Metro about 2k away. Good show when the upstairs stage is lowered. Expensive as are lady drinks. You need to decide where you are going. Suggest WS one night and LK Metro another. It all depends on your requirements. Half the fun is walking around trying different places.
  20. I assume you are providing the 800k and the agent is just doing the work for you instead of you having to deal with the immigration hastle. I am speaking about the agent providing the 800k and getting the extension for me. I cant see anyway an agent would do this for 8k.
  21. A rather silly answer, it was clearly stated the UK government. HRMC
  22. So why bother with having a safety expert on set when filming. As an actor you are entitled to assume these things have been checked. Maybe its because I am a Brit where the US gun culture is not part of my daily life. I would hate to live in fear in the US where guns are an everyday concern. We have many issues but guns 100% not, in fact I have never seen a live gun and I do not know anyone who owns one, thank goodness.
  23. 8000 is a great price. The agents I know in Pattaya are 12.5k and 12.9k and the 12 month extension is issued by the local office Can I ask where you get 8k it seems very cheap.
