  1. Photocopies of visa, arrival stamp and passport ID page along with a completed TM7 form and 1900 baht are normally required for an extension
  2. The agent does not forge any documents where did you get that from. They do provide the 800k funds agreed and the head officer in immigration agrees to waive the time the funds needs to be in your account. His signature and the extension stamp are all perfectly legal.
  3. What do you consider an "illegal extension"? I have an extension like many via an agent and it is perfectly legal.
  4. You are so naive. To get an extension of any kind, even a 1 year extension of stay. You need paper copies of previous visa, entry stamp, copy of previous extension. Its always been like that, surprised you dont know.
  5. The rescuers gave him ammonia to sniff to clear his head and escorted him off the road. They then helped him get back on the motorbike to continue his journey to his place of residence.
  6. Uploading from an android is simple I dont see how aj iphone would differ. Just save docs in correct upload format and size and upload. Easy.
  7. Its easy to unknowingly download a PDF file. For example if you are searching for something on google and click on a site this is sometimes a direct link to a PDF file instead. That will in turn be downloaded into your files. This has happened to me many times. Check your browsing history and see if this is what you have done. I doubt if its anything suspicious, just something you have done.
  8. Thats funny. Do you know you are calling one if the most knowlegable people on here and is also a moderator a troll. Your topic is a good reading car crash.
  9. No I think he means that if something happens to her, then there will be no one to take care of him. Dont forget he doesnt want to drive because of a heart issue. My comment was in semi jest actually but as you took it to be a serious comment I answered accordingly.
  10. How selfish is that?
  11. Your post makes no sense. You said "Cockney Chav" which I presume are speaking with a London accent and Chav which which is someone who is dressed in a particular manner ie sportswear or Burberry shirt. As they were shirtless how did you identify them as Chavs? I obviously identify with your stereotyping but be careful it could come back to bite you.
  12. Thats funny what a silly statement. This is nothing to do with agent fees for a visa
  13. Its an extension of your last entry. Why on earth would they need information about your entry in May? Think about it.
  14. A very sensible reply and understanding of the situation. My house in the UK is increasing in value all the time so I see no reason to sell. I dont rent because as you pointed out you lose the flexibilty option. I like the fact that I can go back every year for a few months. Yes I think about the future. At this stage the only thing stopping me travelling would be health. At this time I have a couplw of issues but nothing serious. If I couldnt travel I would probably bite the bullit and get my wife a UK settlement visa, its not needed at this time as she has a long term 10 year visit visa. Time will tell. The trick is to keep active and dont stagnate. Although today I am feeling well rough after a night out in Pattaya with a mate who is visiting lol
  15. Sure I agree with that. However over here it tends to work like that. My wifes mother and sisters are fine when I visit, the father is a bit of a drunkard. Obviously they do not speak English and I have no interest in learning Issan. I speak very little Thai but enough to make myself understood. I cannot think of anything more boring than living there. There is literally nothing and I mean nothing to do. I would go crazy.
  16. Sounds really boring. Each to his own though. I imagine you would be doing much the same in your own country.
  17. Nothing wrong with bar girls or even ex gogo girls. My lady was one and now makes an excellent wife. There are 1,000's of foreigners in the same situation no need to get defensive.
  18. Thers always 1 Finicky one lol. Not for me I am afraid. When we go visiting the family I always go to the local hotel resort to sleep. Then go back to the village and relax on a recliner reading a book whilst she does the family thing and we are ready to go back to civilsation. An overnight visit is enough for me, I dont know how people can live there. Nothing to do its so boring.
  19. Yes many of those as well. There are some though as long as you have the right format and business brain who own successfull bars, some even a chain of them.
  20. Yes I retired at 56 in 2013. I bought a house just outside Pattaya with my Thai wife and we spend 7 months a year here. We both return to the UK every May for 4 to 5 months to see my lads and grandchildren. I did not sell my house in the UK like so many do. I am confident I made the right decision as I am with the relationship with my wife who I have been with since 2011 and married since 2014. At 30 years old she is young enough to keep me young and we do many activities that I detailed in my original post together. Best decision I ever made. Dont whatever you do be persuaded to go and live in a Thai village.
  21. Many successfull bar owners in Pattaya. What is your point?
  22. Well for a start dont live in the middle of nowhere, where your wife dictates your life for you. Live in or near Pattaya. You then have the choice of the beach at Jomtien, nightlife whenever you want it, cinema, eating out, going to the gym, playing golf etc. If you have the funds and are reasonably fit, retirement should be a fun time. If you think you are already on the way out, doing nothing will quickly accelerate that.
  23. I visited The Queen Siriket Navy Hospital 2 weeks go. Every single person and there were hundreds were wearing a mask. Although I dont like wearing a mask, out of respect I did so. If requested to wear a mask in a given situation I would look at the circumstances and if its a reasonable request I will do so.
  24. Whats a VPN got to do with it. He means checking the immigration database to see if you have entered or left Thailand.
