If the complainer was Thai, this would never happened
In Thailand the laws like feeding fish or touching a sea cucumber or complaining about the hotel apply only to foreigners. 

yes it's true ! someone needs to be able to think first to then complain !

You think you are smarter than Thai’s ???  The fact that you announce that highlights that you aren’t and nullifies the rest of your post such that it squanders only in the realms of idiocy. 

 

 

 

 

 

Yes you certainly know Thai better than me, and your immigration friends or cops friends are so smart ! it's famous that people wearing uniforms are sooooo smmmarrttt ! especially here ! I guess that your girlfriend is also a nobel prize, right ?

I can't believe how expensive the gyms are here (and no AC too).   They cost more than my gyms at home in the US which are world class.

 

 My shirts looke like I jumped into a pool by end of 45 minutes here.

My benz also costs more than back home ! and so ?

I've used 24-7 fitness and universal fitness.  Universal had more equipment and was bigger, but the equipment was ancient.

24-7 first because it was closest at the time.  Universal when covid shut everything down because they opened weeks earlier than 247.

There is Coco fitness here too,  which was smaller, but with the newest equipment.  Also, it was air-conditioned.  I have yet to try it.  

Bears gym seems nice from the pictures in Jomtien.  

all overpriced !

I believe that what they meant was there was only 5 days in the promotion to get a 1 year membership at the reduced rate. After that, the price for a 1 year membership would go back to it's normal rate.

Who cannot understand this cannot be totally normal ? right ?

Whereas I understand the views of many on here, I would ask them to look at the bigger picture and both sides of the equation.

no need ! any business sueing any customer must be punished for eternity ! Nothing else to tell or understand, i don't even read your message.

Let me put it this way, I will avoid this hotel like the plague, not due to the reviews placed by the guest but because of their complete and over the top reaction to them.

We are millions around the world in this situation ! And some people will take care that the truth comes first in google when anybody will be looking for reviews about this hotel...

The careers of the hotel manager is now basically over (self inflicted).

this is the MINIMUM that should happen to him !

They do not seek deal to help the foreigner, they seek deal because they finally understand how they fuxxed up and how their reputation is destroyed for a long time !

Foreigner should refuse deal except if they pay him a lot of money !!!

no respect for stupid Thai business ! I am posting reviews since years and will keep posting as much as I can to destroy them !

The OP is either idiot or liar. Stories like this BS cannot happen to anybody with a brain and especially someone staying in Thailand long time.

Anybody who doesn't understand this can only be in this category.

 

 

 

Seems the only truth 5555

Since when beaches are closed ?!

I read that PAWS Hua hin need volunteer and their offer front beach room if you spend a week there. Anybody knows them ?

Was the promo only for 5 days really ?

You are a good person for doing this.

 

But unfortunately it is not only Pattaya. All over Thailand temples and animal sanctuaries are facing this trouble. Many animal rescue centers have a nice income from tourists coming to vist them and donating something and from things like coffeeshops where you can meet some cats or dogs to play with or adopt. That income has now all but run dry, making their future uncertain.

 

A few of the animal shelters affected are:

Koh Lanta

And many more all over Thailand.

 

Thank you for the list, we should extend it.

There is no SOI DOG around Pattaya it seems ?

But i found this

Here's a suggestion, although those who "LOVE" Soi dogs will get upset.  Euthanise the dogs and feed them to the tigers.  Two problems solved.  That way no chickens have to die and the zoo saves 7000 Baht a day for each tiger.

'nuf sed.

I was thinking to do this with old grumpy foreigners...

If you see other places where dogs are dying please tell me ?

most likely, yes.

My non-o will expire 5 may. i must go to savanakhet and do a new 1 year one. But it seems i can wait without any problem till 31 july.

Confirmed yes !

But July 31 consulate  at Savanakiket could be crowded...

If your non o was due to expire on 30th April, then there would be no 'free' extension, as the 30th April was the date when the initial 'free' extensions were due to expire, plus any 'free' extension would not have been 60 days either. The only option if you can't do a border run on a non o are 60 days based on marriage, or a year with 400k in the bank for 2 months prior. New announcement will change things obviously, but after your 60 day extension is up, are you then covered untilll 31st July?

you are wrong, he can stay until JULY 31, nothing to do or extend.

Maybe. Or they are they are giving plenty of time for things to start opening up, and people be able to go somewhere without a tsunami of people all going to IOs or airports and borders at the same time.

This is clearly the only reason why they do it. We should not wait until August to extend.

I extended my 2 month tourist visa until the end of may. I want to stay more time in Thailand, and my idea was to go out to another asian country, and then return to Thailand. I want to confirm what this news means. Would I have an automatic visa extension until the end of july? This seems too beautiful to be true, so I guess not. Or would I need a letter from the embassy, etc? But in that case you need to go to the inmigration office. Can someone confirm me please? 

Correct, enjoy ! you are so lucky if you just met with Thailand and don't know about the bad things yet ????

same situation here, most likely we are safe. Enjoy your 3 months

yes but I think we should think about getting a new NON O visa before JULY 31, as i guess everybody will wait and consulate will be overcrowded in august.
