Thailand Confirms 13 Cases of New Covid FliRT Sub-variants
Mark17AA replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
All these variants.. Thailand has finally reached is goal of becoming a major Hub of something, rather than wishful thinking. -
Actually I have been with PP for 13 Years, but understandably now hit 65 the premium doubled hence on the look out. It's a minefield! However PP came back with some options Vumi with equal cover at $300/MTH less than to reinsure with PassportCard and less than other quotes I had gathered... So Vumi it is. Thanks anyhow.

Nothing

It's a old topic I know, but I'm a 65 more than average fit, and just got my renewal quote which is now doubled. Please any suggestions for a company that's not going to phone me 10 times a day chasing, but has sensible pricing and good quality policies to review. So basically who would you recommend. Thanks

Thai Airways Faces Backlash Over Business-Class Seat Fiasco
Mark17AA replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Recent flight from Bali to BKK I noticed a number of passengers in BC having seat and screen issues, mind you this plane looked like the original prototype type so old... Just not worth the money, but little choice on that route if you want comfort. -
That's me done then, can't stand The Thaiger... Awful

Let me be clear about my post - I use an agent purly that I can't be arsed to go to the immigration office myself.. my choice! Next, I have the funds so that is not the issue.. my post was meant to highlight that its a point to be aware of, as in my 15 years here its the first time that this has come up.. having spoken to my agent they have said never before has this been an issue. As I mentioned there is no issue until I need to make the renewal which needs to be done at the local office, as for the 90 day report I'm in and out the country quite regularly and in the old days would do the TM30 with my BKK address no questions were asked. My post was a heads up to others whom might come unstuck with it... TBH I wish I had not bothered.

By the way she also advised that I can continue with the visa until expiry then it must be renewed at Wattana if I still live BKK.

I have a Non O visa for which I have always used an agent to obtain. I know they have used various "friendly" officers at various offices around the country. On this occasion I was asked my address in Thailand, first time ever asked! to which I replied my residence in Bangkok. I was then escorted to a senior officer that asked about why my visa was not obtained in Bangkok (I think this time it was from Phuket) to this I replied that I have always used an agent. I pleaded ignorance, and she then kept repeating that I must go to Chang Wattana to do the Visa.. anyhow I acknowledged polity, and after a while she gave me the stamp through to the visa expiry date. I just wonder if this is a new thing tightening the noose, and has anybody else had this experience recently.
