good luck

Hi use the mobile app mentioned. No need to go to the immigration just download it to your or wife phone. You will need photo of your wife ID, house book and your passport photo in the phone so you can upload. when she has the app she must register herself first via app then check her email and follow the easy 2 steps. then here you go. suggestion: take screenshots in every step of the app. And save them. You will need as a TM30 proof if needed. Its also a good idea to print the pics. its very easy and takes probably 5 min all things.

i see.. seems like they understand you are a bar owner and tried to trick. and yes, most likely it was fake but they sold you. Probably when they bought back they forgot to check or something like that. Maybe a rookie cashier. Then the real guy relized or remembered the gold and tried to tell you its fake.. lol actually you did well. sold back his fake gold to him.. hehehe if you think everything is calm down dont post anything. dont delete the video and make a copy (safety first) the papers you have and keep them safe.

DJI has really a nice and good shop at central westgate. they might help

is it a pawn shop or gold shop. seems its not a gold shop tbh. why they know your address? i bought some serious amount of gold and never been asked my address. 1 shop tried to get my passport copy and i told them no, then in 1 min they said ok no problem. and.. sorry to ask but why were you selling a gold ring which you bought from the same shop? thats what makes me think its a pawn shop. 7 guys showing up.. never heard such a thing unless its a really really rural area. and even there.. so might be something you are not telling the full story? they refused to call cops and what did stopped you to calling them? obviously its not your first time using this pawn shop. didnt they give you any paper work when buying the gold and selling it? after that no one can do anything.. done is done. im so surprised they didnt come with cops. i would stay at home for a few days and observe around.. safety first bro. good luck

Hi, im also working for Royal Thai Airforce. we are hired directly by Thai government. We are all ex army/veteran or etc. officers training thai air force or likewise branches now: 1) you are working for an american company or US government working with thai government, you will get F visa and item 27 as Ubon mentioned. 2) you are like us hired by thai government, normal non-b but you will get some of ID which will put you in VIP situation. Its kind of military card. Believe or not but it works great. Show it to cops they will let you go away from almost any situation you will face. But expect a call to your work from the police explaining what happened. if its number 1, US government or company should do everything and you dont need to worry. Thai embassy and US officials will arrange all for you. Plus its not possible that you will do these documents by yourself if your working for the US government. PS: i think i know what you will be doing here. I have friends before in your position. they left now. went to Korea. Most likely we will meet, also no need to this top secret thing. its not that secret and actually not even military thing that much... see ya soon good luck

There are only 2 different off days in this month. 1 is 13 and i cannot remember the other day, sorry. May be 15

He is asking for directions

google maps? car gps? mobile gps? they are your friend, you know good luck with the visa

If you changed your passport, your embassy should give you a letter saying this. If not ask them. Translate it into thai also (just in case) copy the letter and take it with you. Bring your old passport with copy of it also (just in case) probably you wont have any problems.

I dont do anything for my next visa because my work do all for me ????

Well i still couldnt manage any discount even with my fluent thai and esan.. but i think you were lucky because they really really need customers after covid. Im pretty sure they will ask 200 instead of 100 in a months time when all really get back to normal. Then again there will be no place for a bargain.. Well done and congrats about making it 50. ????

many trips to savanakhet and never heard tuk tuk go down to 100... seriously. 50.. how did you manage that? and for all trips! 200 300 probably because of covid and so on.

it looks like to me they lost your passport or they are really waiting some documents or like that. tbh most likely they lost your passport and cannot tell you. again they have nothing to lose. All your signed contracts and things are nothing. losing passports or other documents are very common with agencies. i have 2-3 friends their agencies lost really important things. they didnt even care or paid. well because at the end of the day you cannot do anything. thats it. i would go to the police and make a lost report. then my embassy with the report. you dont need to go to samui, dont listen them. jsut go to the nearest police station and tell them you lost it probably in taxi or MRT. thats all. take your paper they will give you and make 2-3 copies and keep the copies always

great we have 1 more added to trying the best to stay in thailand list

If you have a university degree, you can find a job. You are 30, easy. or find a wife...

Most agencies take the money before doing the visa because they have to give the money (bribe) to the immigration officer who is taking the bribe. Also they take some amount too of course. So thats sound legit. Although the website looks little bit copy paste to me. i mean the icons and everything is copied from IO website and used in this website which seems odd. It doesnt look like any pro website tbh. You mentioned they dont have office? when you add up, i would say dont trust them. I dont think agency can help you in your situation. now pointing you to the right direction: Find a job or a wife or retirement age.. basically what im trying to tell you is find a reason to make you stay in thailand instead of Ed visas, martial art visas, cooking classes... whats your plan? whats next after this ed visa, thai dessert classes?

yes

the easiest way to do online TM30 is the mobile app. Its super easy and cna be done in 5-10min. just screenshot every step and print them.

so you want to study till you die? lol obviously you are using the vis to stay in thailand.. not to learn thai or you can join thai cooking classes next? by proper visa i mean like, work? wife?

there are some people walking around sometimes around exchange offices. Especially when they are close. They might take it. try airport too. taxi or tuk tuks also might work one of my friend told some people around him that he is lazy and sick to go and exchange the money if they take it he will give them little bit lower exchange rate then the real rate. They accepted so he got rid of them. Dont know hat happened next, but probably they found out that they cannot get them to the bank.. hehe

and let me ask a question about your future... then what? yes, what is your plan after 1 yr ed visa? study again? why dont you try to get a proper visa instead of trying to stay and live in thailand..

Im a veteran-officer too Served in Iraq (thanks to american lies about iraq has nuklear power but actually all USA wants was its oil) and then Afghanistan (9/11). I was not in usa army if that matters. I was in the army since i was 14.. military school then academy abd so on. When i was graduated as 1st LT i found myself in Iraq. I also just recently send my documents and info to ukrainian embassy in bangkok to join the foreign legion. But the guy told me my age may be a problem, 43. Anyway I just want to give/share few things about these fake idiots &a holes. So you can understand them in 5 min: If they claim that they are SEAL just ask them their Bud/s number. Most of them will say its secret or likewise. Thats the first bull sh it. Even for seals buds class training number is not a secret/classified information. If they cannot say it, just tell them they are lier. Thats it. If they say a number.. bare this in mind so you can do a conclusion BUDs 133 was fought in vietnam.. now in Iraq it was 155 or 156. Then ask them some of his mates in bud training.. another thing is most of these fake toy soldiers say they are snipers... another thing is when they tell their 'great war stories' they always use 'I' a real soldier always use 'we' because we know what TEAM means. Just tell them they are a toy soldier plus an idiot. Disrespectful to real soldiers abd also to fallen heros. This doesnt mean only for USA but fir all countries... Please be sensitive to this topic and matter... respect to real people. You like or not... Thank you

i did my kitchen from homepro. Really nice one. They really did good job. I chose my kitchen set, they came exactly the time they promised and did the plan and measurements. Then showed me printed version how it will look like. Then again right on time they installed it. No water leaking, nothing. Very clean job too. i bought AC from power something i forgot the name now. Terrible installation, really dirty... total mess..

didnt buy online. Went to the one in central westgate. after i bought the bed, you need to take the papers to the transportation section which is.. probably 1-2km walking distance in the same building. And not easy to find the place. And funny enough even they said the transportation is in the payment, the transportation section charge you again.. they said they are not with IKEA but private company. i dont buy these kind of things online. Need to see
