Are you a sponsor of AseanNow. See you advertising a lot in threads.

An agent will open a bank account without certificate of residence. Do you want to open a bank account or obtain certificate of residence for example TDL.

Many folk have been able to enter visa exempt or tourist visa and been able to obtain "conversion" to non O by providing TM30.

Yes . A non O is single entry. A re-entry permit would be required to exit and reenter Thailand. A non O-A is a multi entry permit valid for 12 months

Yes. If you have a Thai bank in your name only a good option is to enter visa exempt.

Non O does not require medical also no police check etc. IMO good option is to enter Thailand visa exempt and obtain your non O in Thailand. Forget the non O-A option unless it's for a one/two year visit. Non O-A also requires insurance. Non O does not. Best option is to some extent dependant on if it's ongoing stay or just an extended visit. @Red Phoenix has instructions to enter visa exempt to non O pathway.

Excuse dumb q. So I have Samsung tv (new) it has the Netflix etc on the home screen. So the code just gets entered in that.

Yes.

Your posts are not helpful. P.O

I do pay for internet. It's included in my monthly rent. I was asking options to buy Netflix. Some folk in the thread have pointed out one simple option is cards from 7/11. Also for all knew there my have been other options such as True etc.

Thanks for suggestion. Prefer not to trouble the building management. As mentioned earlier I can purchase from 7/11 a basic package. The gf purchased a "True wallet" whatever that is and it connects however it's all in Thai and doesn't have a settings function.

Just snip small part of your post. Will have careful read tomorrow. So comprehensive I appreciate a lot

Guys Guys. I'm overwhelmed and at same time so so appreciative of the replies. Even couple of informative PM,s Slight update... The 10 year gf is so so sensitive she just used "True Money" to buy one month or whatever. 169b due to thinking she had let me down. What the heck. Had to keep telling her it's not her fault! When it opens it's all Thai and we cannot find settings. Thanks guys will look into it tomorrow.

We seem to get lot of Asian content here in Thailand but I've been happy with the content. I guess you can pay different levels of subscription and have more variety.

Yes. I need to connect every time I reenter condo or every morning. Unlike bars etc where I visit and auto connect as have been there previously. Bit embarrassing how many bars my cell auto connects to.

You are aware of the saying .. "Ignorance is bliss" I live a very blissful life! Some very helpful posts above. I just now did a Netflix search and article that Yes they have stopped account sharing. However they have reduced membership cost. From something like 269 to 169b . Obviously that would be basic package.

Trust me I have tried. The building has a wifi set up that for example it only allows one connection. My partner has her own phone plane. Data etc. I do not. We cannot sit in room both connected to condo wifi.

Thanks. Clearly I'm slightly tech challenged. As stated ...I pay my condo office wifi every month. At present the phone connects to building wifi and the tv to my hotspot. Works fine. So follow your idea I just sign up online? Being old school prefer to do that in person but clearly not an option. Ta.

Thanks for post. I'm not fussed about using cell as hotspot. It's more asking about if Netflix is best option and do you just subscribe online etc

Your posts have been incorrect in many ways.

Not sure correct forum and I did research but very old Threads. So here is the situation. Been watching Netflix for quite some time. My partners friend was a subscriber and had a deal where you can share 4 accounts. So either the friend ended subscription or Netflix stopped that deal. I want something similar. Happy to subscribe. There is one issue. I cannot connect tv to my condo wifi. I use my cell phone as a personal hotspot. Works fine. Appreciate any suggestions of alternatives to watch some movie/series etc content. TIA.

That wouldn't work. People are advised to apply for eVisa few weeks early. The "onwardticket.com" flights are only valid for few days. Good option for flying visa exempt to satisfy airline. You can pay extra and have longer valid status however don't think few weeks available. In any event imo this loop hole will soon close. Your passport will show country of departure. Thinking it was poorly planned in first place.

Not required. Leave field blank

Again just one person's opinion.. Given that at this stage it's not about permanent ongoing living in Thailand I would suggest the agent route. If in the future you live permanently in Thailand you can obtain a new non O and extension and do it without agent.

You cannot convert. You need to exit Thailand without reentry permit. That kills off your non O-A. Then you have two options. Obtain non O retirement at a consulate. Vientiane is popular. OR ... You enter Thailand visa exempt (border bounce) and obtain non O at your Thai immigration office .
