  1. https://www.bumrungrad.com/en/patient-services/business-center
  2. Bumrungrad Office Center at the hospital does it for 650 baht. You don't need to be a patient. Good service.
  3. Back when they implemented the whole system they had to make a decision as to whether notification would be acceptable or if the notification itself would need to be subject to an approval process. Maybe it was a no-brainer for them.
  4. I have to say though, it is only taking them 24 hours or so after my submission for them to reject it with no explanation. I do appreciate that good service!
  5. I do use the magnifying glass and did check all the dates. 😞
  6. No reason. I have never been given a reason for rejection. Maybe it depends on the office. Mine is Chaengwattana.
  7. My online submission has been rejected three times despite being exactly the same as all other ones and my not having visited any place that would file a new TM30. So there is that...... No need to tell me I did something wrong or that it works perfectly for you. I have been using the online system since it started with varying degrees of success. Usually it works. I mailed it in yesterday but it was 12 days before the due date, not the 15 days required, so they will likely gleefully reject it also. They have cleverly designed the system so if you receive an online rejection it is too late to mail it in. Rant over. I guess I better go in person or have an agency do it for me. In the past I have use Bumrungrad business office but they now charge 600 baht. (No need to insult me for not just paying the 600 baht, although I am sure someone will. Enjoy yourself!) Any suggestions for a conveniently located agency that does the 90 day reporting at a lower price. Thanks.
  8. It takes a long time because the two teenager computer technicians they employ to handle the website are only available after school football practice on Saturdays.
  9. I did immediately resubmit. I have had the same experience as you. Accepted on my 3rd submission on occasion.
  10. Of course! I know exactly how to file and there has been no change since my last filing. I wonder if the men and woman who have the horrible job of sitting in front of their computer all day everyday and accepting and rejecting applications have a written or unwritten quota of rejections required. Actually, my suspicion is that it is somehow related to the February having 29 days this year and causing some computer glitch.
  11. Immigration Division 1: Same address for the last 10 years. Haven't stayed at any hotels or left the country in the last 90 days. How gosh darn hard would it be to tell me why it is rejected? I mean a simple prewritten explanation would take a moment to cut and paste or use a shortcut key. Dang blang it...... Dear ......., Your application for "STAYING LONGER THAN 90 DAYS" has been rejected. Please contact the nearest Immigration Office in person immediately. Full Name : Passport No : Nationality : Kind regards.
  12. "The primary goal of this heightened campaign is to ensure the safety of tourists..." God bless their pure hearts!
  13. So many hate him, but he brought government health care to the poor, among many other things. Who could possibly blame them for loving him?
  14. Pun Pun is likely gone forever. I expect the overengineered bike stands will block the sidewalks for a while longer. However, there are some app bikes sitting next to the deserted Pun Pun stand on Rajadamri close to the entrance to the park. You just scan the QR code, set up a payment card and off you go. I forgot the name of the bike rental app. I walk past there all the time and see them there. They look OK, fairly new. Better than the Pun Pun bikes anyway.
  15. It is only a crime if the parents or the girl file a complaint. No complaint - no crime. That's all I am saying. And I'm only saying it because it's an interesting aspect of Thai law.
  16. You seem to be saying I have some interest in young girls. I don't. However, as a lawyer, I have an interest in Thai law. Please do explain the "qualifiers and amendments" that make my post incorrect. I am always happy to learn, but I prefer it be without character assassination.
  17. Progress! They have moved from the mulling stage through the considering stage to the planning to ask the committee stage.
  18. The interesting thing about this is that, since the age of consent in Thailand is 15, there is no crime at all until the parents make a complaint to the police. Before that, the headline would be: British Man has Completely Legal Sexual Intercourse with a Minor. And that all changes after the parental complaint.
  19. Must have been difficulty to find some of the sellers. I mean it's not like their stands were set up 100 meters from a major police station.
  20. I mailed in the 90 day to Chaengwattana, after renewing my passport and moving my visa/extension to my new passport. I was fully prepared to pay the 2,000 baht fine next time I renewed my visa as after spending a full day doing the passport transfer I couldn't bear the thought of another Chaengwattana experience . All hope was lost but 5 weeks later or so I received the approval in my mailbox.
  21. This is the brand they used although maybe not the exact switch. It says RMT on my key. https://shopee.co.th/product/36835245/5634045970?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiA2eKtBhDcARIsAEGTG43cKDKwFg2BET5InLC5RSasRRIe4PQLU-6UGzlfAESnNS_l3LLQNn4aAjrIEALw_wcB
  22. Too late for that, but they do seem to have fixed it as it worked fine today.
  23. Thanks! So maybe 1500 baht was not outrageous even with an aftermarket switch? I am curious to know if I was overcharged.
  24. Honda Wave 125R. It went full dead at Lumpini Park right after posting this. I had a mobile mechanic I found on Google pick it up and they said it needed an ignition switch. They charged me 800 baht for picking it up and returning it to my condo and 1500 baht for the aftermarket (not Honda) part and labor. Seemed pretty expensive to me given that the ignition switch kit on Lazada sells for 100-200 baht but not much I could do about it. How long does it actually take to replace the switch and seat lock? Anyway, it seems to be working OK although I just got it back this evening and haven't ridden it anywhere.
