Time for a new Samsung phone - which to get?
hereforgood replied to Sheryl's topic in Mobile Devices and Apps
I am now sold on Xiaomi I have the note 9 pro which is 2 years old and I still get 36 hours on a full charge and I am a very heavy user. Takes only 45 mins in my case to recharge to 80 % as well. I was a Samsung user but no longer. Camera is fantastic as well and these 2 things mean the most for me when looking for a phone. Camera and battery life. -
US passport Stamp transfer problem
hereforgood replied to hereforgood's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Guys Thanks very much guys -
A good friend went back to the US for 3 months to see family. He has a retirement extension here in Thailand. While he was back in the US he got a new passport. He returned to Thailand and wanted to get the stamps transferred. He was told he needed a letter from the US embassy in order for them to do the transfer. I was told when you get the new passport done here in Thailand the letter needed is issued when you get the new PP back. He doing it in the US was not issued the letter. What are his option's ? The folks at Immigration were not much help just kept saying need letter.

Had my first 2 in Bangkok and vowed to not get a booster till it was needed for travel or visa reasons. Many friends were getting boosters at Royal garden which did them free for I believe a month. If in the future I will have to have one for the reasons stated I have zero problem with the 1200 baht for it. I do not think it will ever be required though have heard it is to travel to some countries. I believe the free bees are finished

Work without work permit in Thailand
hereforgood replied to Jocelyn0918's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
When I was the bar manager I was arrested on walking street at the bar off to Soi 9 about a week later I had to meet with the arresting officials for whatever reason I was given a letter in Thai but translated which basically said that I was not involved in the incident and in no way should I have been arrested and everything is cleared regarding myself. I have that letter I always keep it because you never know. When you were cleared I would have thought you would have been given some similar documentation. -

agencies for work permit
hereforgood replied to Lolothai's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
If they want you bad enough they should be handling all of your paperwork and absorbing the costs as well -
Every year after I extend my retirement Visa the first time I try to do a 90-day report after that it is rejected online. So I have had to go into immigration to do the first one after the extension. Being stubborn every year I try it and every year I'm not successful but this year I woke up Restless at 4 a.m. Sunday morning went online did the report went back to sleep and when I woke up at 10 a.m. it was approved with the new PDF of my 90 day report. It does seem like immigration is getting things together. I didn't expect to get an approval or rejection until Monday or Tuesday with Sunday being some kind of holiday I guess and having done it at that time of the morning. In any event Happy Days

Funny Chonburi Immigration
hereforgood replied to anandra's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
It's funny because you would think they would want you to get through as quickly as possible and if they don't with you today they wouldn't have to wait it would be one less they would have to deal with in the future. I use an agent to renew my retirement Visa despite having the money in the bank and all the correct documents. Because I just don't want to screw with it myself. And also my agent can get it done for me 3 months in advance of the due date where as when I was doing it myself they wouldn't do it more than 30 days out. -
Can get a online SS card if you are in the system and up load that it has the proper QR code imbedded in it

What does working with a visa agent look like?
hereforgood replied to ThLT's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
That used to be my experience also but the other day I was told the photo can be taken by the agent in their office so it's saved a trip even going to immigration -

Yesterday I renewed my Retirement extension at the agent I use and was very happy as was told no longer had to go to Immigration for the photo as it was taken in the agents office. I have the money in the bank so do not need to use a agent if I do it my self so why pay an agent ? Because I just do not want to deal with it just that simple. Stupid ? Maybe others will see it that way but with the agent fast easy no muss no fuss NEVER an issue. Time is money sure I have more time than money but just do not wish to be bothered. The cost 6900 baht and IMO worth every baht. They also do the 90 day report free if you like but I do mine online so not needed.
