I have made an appointment online with Dr Anna, just waiting for conformation. Thanks again everyone

Thanks for the information everyone. Much appreciated.

Can anyone recommend a clinic, doctors or hospital to have a skin cancer examination in the Jontiem/Pattaya area. Thanks in advance

Thanks for the confirmation Sam

Thanks for the advice Dr Jack. Your guess was spot on! K bank will be my first call. If that fails and I need to use an agent for the extension as a sweetener to open a bank account then I will take that route.

Hi Dr Jack. I will be staying in Jomtien so would prefer not to travel to BKK but obviously would be prepared to do so if that was my only option. For further info; Yes, I have a 90-day non-O obtained in the UK. I also have an old K bank account that maybe I can reactivate. Not certain this can be done! I will be staying in an Airbnb for my first month while I look for long term accommodation so not sure how this will play out with banks even if I obtain a COR. I have just had an email back from one of the agents that has numerous recommendations on here informing me that they can’t help with bank account opening. Maybe I am worrying too much but I am trying to plan a for worst case scenario wherein I don’t manage to open an account within a couple of weeks after my arrival (giving me time to season the funds for an extension). Thanks

Forgive my ignorance and slightly off topic but if you don’t have a bank account can these agents still obtain an extension for a 90 day Non Im O ?

Thanks aric

Hi I am currently in the process of booking a 1-month Airbnb to give me time to find a permanent place to stay. I contacted the landlord and asked about obtaining a copy of the TM30 as I may need it to obtain a COR for opening a bank account. He informed me that he completes the TM30 online and would send me a screen shot. So, my question is; If I turn up at immigration (Jontiem) with the screenshot would they locate the TM30 on their system? Thanks

Sorry that was a typo, yes 800k. No air ticket requested.

Update 😀 I received my visa this morning. Please see below for details. Submitted application Tue 3rd Jun 11.50am BST Documents submitted: - Latest utility bill. (PDF file) - Latest UK bank statement showing 800k+ baht/GBP equivalent. (pdf file) - Copy of Bio page of passport (JPEG file) (Note, file size must be less than 3mb) - Digital passport photo. (JPEG file) (Note, file size must be less than 3mb) Received visa approval email Wednesday 18th June. Allowing for 4 days over 2 weekends and the holiday for the Queens birthday on the 3rd June it took 10 working days. Worth noting that the approval email came through at 12.40am UK time zone. I had only been checking for emails up until COB UK time zone. This stuff must be outsourced rather than processed in the London embassy! Cheers
