  1. I just completed this quiz. My Score 50/100 My Time 164 seconds  
  2. If you don't fancy the pills you could perhaps try switching to a Non ED visa?
  3. Thanks for the dark mode, appreciated.
  4. Pretty sure TPC has sent you the correct answer here. The 5 year membership expires 3rd January, and immigration made an error stamping you beyond that date. Until a few years ago getting a 6th year out of the 5 year elite was common practice, but more recently immigration had a problem with it - I remember comments on the forum where people were warned they'd be on overstay if they stayed beyond the expiry of their membership. How much this is enforced is anyone's guess, given that immigration officers are clearly still stamping people beyond the 5 year mark. Edit. Just saw your second email response from TPC. A few years ago they were writing to members toward the end of their membership expiry warning of overstay consequences of staying beyond the 5 years. It seems like their muddled response in their second message to you shows they've since backed down from this position.
  5. I just completed this quiz. My Score 100/100 My Time 139 seconds  
  6. That guy was identified in the news report as a "fat farang", no mention of nationality.
  7. Just installed a pretty decent kitchen faucet from Mr DIY for 299฿. The previous one was Rasland brand (from Homepro) and was leaking quite badly after two or three years. The Mr DIY one is almost identical and less than half the price - they seem to have improved their products recently.
  8. I did this in 2022 and completed the entire process in under two months. Visit to CW immigration the next working day after returning on 30 day visa exempt entry to apply for the Non O, and again 45 days before it expired. With the Non O (retirement) I was required to have a home visit during the under consideration period which was normal at that time, not sure if this is still required. From the date you visit the office to apply for the extension.
  9. I had a daikon recently, it was a load of radish.
  10. I did a Wise transfer from UK three days ago and funds for long term stay in Thailand was still there at the bottom of the list.
  11. There's at least three - LTR is under Ministry of Interior (BOI), DTV is Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Elite is owned by TAT under the Ministry of Tourism and Sports. And then immigration (under the RTP) often have their own ideas about whether to let people in or not. With the Revenue Department thrown into the mix from next year it'll be enough to befuddle Kafka.
  12. 13/3, they used the building on the corner about half way up on the right. Not a great film, but fun to spot the landmarks - big fight at Marine Disco towards the end.
  13. Changes of 30 day visa exempt entries to longer periods have happened before, always temporary. The most recent was the increase from 30 to 45 days in October 2022 which lasted for six months.
  14. Keep in mind also the rates will rise after the current deadline for back payments expires in April 2025.
