I remember reading quite recently that he still works  but is very very busy.

Applied retroactively? But I have already paid my March and April bill , how do I get back my refund?

My guess is they will deduct it from your next bill.

It might cause a problem for the immigration officer to find your correct files in the computer...now that its very quiet they are probably more inclined to take the time to sort the problem out.

However I suspect that my reporting must be in the computer (?) and my correct receipt in somebody elses passport.

When they scan the barcode it will show the wrong persons information,

which may cause a bit of a problem !

If it where me I'd go back to Jomtien immigration  as soon as possible ( hear its very quiet there now) for them to sort out the mistake..some reports of the checkpoints not really checking documents too carefully

to see if you are really a "Barnglamung" resident or not,  also  I would have thought  going to immigration is a valid reason to let you in...try it and see.

There appears to be more "freebies"  working their way through the system   now 150 units of electricity free ( 5/15 meter if use more than 150 then pay )

and bills after March charged at March price  (assume they mean if the bill is higher than March)

the PEA app wouldn't let my wife pay yesterday maybe due to the above ????

So they have finally moved into the 21st century allowing online payments ?  previously you had to pay in the store in Bangkok not much good when you live in Chaingmai !

Have all of the "congregation" problems been solved at all of The Immigration Offices in the country ?

Mostly solved after "the democratic soldier"  finally issued a (partial at least) amnesty.

Psst, psst - I got copy wolex, omegan and vilus test kid, velly good n'jeep - you wan by.... 

Got any Revi 501's or Layban Aviators ?

Only once have they asked me where  my 400,000 came from

they excepted my answer without asking for any proof,what I told them was true so perhaps they knew already but where just "fishing"

Just like in the old  black and white  "prohibition" movies  I had some delivered at almost double price in plain bags under cover of darkness ! ????

There is still one or 2 roads  around the "Chocolate factory" but probably has barriers as well.

They wanted all citizens aged 20 to have the same right to claim the amount regardless of their occupation by showing only their ID card

What a sensible idea !   no need for  online  registration that crash and  then refuse  because the family head is a"farmer"   just give out the money  how much simpler could it get ?

Poor education, poor as church mice, looked after by a God and propagandized by the CIA. What could possibly go wrong?

Agree with everything else..but don't know where the CIA comes in except they might have had some

"black sites" in Thailand.
