  1. That happened to me when I was recently flying out of Surabaya. A gov't person interviewed me with those type of questions.
  2. That was not the case for me in Samut Prakan immigration. The officer insisted I redo the whole visa and said the one I obtained via the Pattaya agent was no good. I was told I had to leave the country and redo it. I went to Cambodia and I did as she said. And I did have over 800K in the bank for a year.
  3. She looked at my bank book and saw the very dodgy 800K going in and out on the same day. And that was even with my having well over 800K in the bank for a year.
  4. I used an agent in Pattaya for the 1st time. For the 1st extension I wanted to ditch the agent and do it myself. I had the necessary funds for a year but the immigration officer in Samut Prakan said no way. She said I had to go to another country and start again.
  5. I have considered getting a LTR visa, but after my job finishes, I'd have to switch back to a retirement visa, so there doesn't seem to be much point.
  6. Did you go from a Non-O retirement visa to the LTR?
  7. I have minidlna running on my linux box that has all the videos. Most TVs will pick up the DLNA server as an input. You can also export the videos with NFS and use VLC to watch them on your TV.
  8. While that number Fidelity mentions is interesting, what is worrying is the number of people nearing retirement age (in America) with an insufficient amount of savings. I would like to see Harris and Trump talk about how these people are going to get by in the coming years.
  9. You might need glasses or a different prescription. Go to a doctor.
  10. I have never seen any. I brought back seeds from the States and tried to grow my own with no luck.
  11. I ditched my ATT phone account 2 years ago and moved the number to Google voice to receive SMS messages and it has been working really well. And there is only the initial cost of 20 dollars (from what I remember)
  12. I just looked on their website and they have this location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/gK4rjppWHVAiFKka7 which is not the old location I went to last year. I sent them a line request and they said they are still at the same location. Can someone please confirm where they are? thanks!
  13. If I had to live back in the states again, it would probably be CA. The job market was great and I got a good education. Compared to PA where I was born, CA is far better. Having said that, I am glad not to be around the homeless in San Diego and the violence. The high cost of real estate worked out well as I bought in 2009 and sold in 2021.
  14. I have a Non-O with a multiple entry stamp. Would there be any problem crossing back into Thailand at Wang Kelian? I'm going to Penang and then on to Koh Lipe, so Wang Kelian looks like a good border crossing. Thanks.
