Do you think foreign embassies will want to help those kicked out the country for bribing Immigration officers?

Nobody's getting kicked out.

I do not bash agents, I bash those who use agents who pays corrupt emigration Officers because they do not meet the requirements for legal stay.

 

It can be me in the future, so therefore have to make sure I have enough assets to continue living legal in Thailand. 

 

Most of those who arrived here a decade or longer ago had a different reality than us who came 5-7 years ago. Everything was a walk in the park, our currency was stronger, and everything looked bright, now we facing the last loopholes disappearing, and the requirements tightens up as it rightly should.

Iast loopholes closing?

Nothing has changed.

No mention of anything changing either.

Some people on this forum seem to make things up in there head and run with it as of if it's facts.

Nothing is changing and if you think that there going to crackdown on these agents your delusional..

Posts like this should be deleted immediately as it is suggesting that is someone uses an agent they are not guilty of a serious crime. 

You could be deported for corrupt activities, if your name is one of these boxes.

Do you think the agent is going to protect you?

I've heard of MANY officers being transferred, whereby losing a lot of money, including the millions they used to buy their positions. 

Agents are pondlife and use their 'connections' with police to protect themselves. 

Foreigners are perhaps the 'innocents' here and have been blacklisted and looks like many more are going to be.  

 

Looks like many more foreigners will be blacklisted?

Where does it say this is going happen?

I must of missed that part in the article.

Of course.

Nonsense, the immigration requirements would be easier if we did away with agents.

The fraudsters are ones who don't have any money. 

Mark my words, they will soon ask that the funds remain in the bank permanently.

Get over yourself buddy.

Your going to be be very disappointed because ain't nothing going to change.

Really just to walk out of the Country it cost 1000 baht.  

Last time I check petrol prices are the same as Canada England cheaper for groceries 

Why did it cost you 1000 to walk out of the country?

It’s rife in Phuket. Visa agents abound and imho most love off getting visas for farang who don’t qualify for one bit pay 30k baht to get one

Shocking carry on,I mean why pay 30k when you can get it for half the cost in Pattaya.

Phuket folk need to shop around.

Spout? 

If you want to pretend you are legal and your agent just staple documents for 16,000 baht fee, feel free to delude yourself. Say it as it is man, and reread the OP is you are unsure what's going on. 

There is really no need for a personal attack, although I do understand you are under stress. I wish you the best, as I do my friends who are 'not legal'. I advised them months ago to fix their visas, but only one has listened, but he'll be able to sleep tonight. 

And the rest of your friends should also sleep well because nothing is going to happen.

Yes it will be an issue especially if it's a route from nearby country such as Vietnam, Cambodia etc.

Flying with carriers such as AirAsia etc the airline most likely want to see onward flight within 45 days.

You can buy "onward flight" from net companies. 

Not expensive. 

When applying for a 30 day extension of my 45 days visa exempt  entery will I loose days by applying early?

You mean people actually travel to Thailand without acquainting themselves of the requirements first? If they purchased their tickets online then they could read them right there. If they purchased their tickets from a travel agent, the agent would give them a flyer explaining the requirements and probably even make sure they read it to them. You are just clutching at straws. If they can't get that far then hard cheese.

Do you understand these are new requirements? Impossible for anyone to know this was going to happen again.If you understand that then hard cheese ????
