If it gives the applicant the warm fuzzy feeling then up to them, not disimilar to visa agents, plenty people pay 25-30K for their services where they could do it themselves for 1/10 ( or more ) of their charge.

Doubt very much the OP has said feeling, dare say an agent would have also picked up on the missing PSAS Receipt for payment for the PCR tests in Phuket

The Op’s Thailand Pass (Phuket Sandbox) application was incomplete because it was missing the PSAS Receipt for payment for the PCR tests in Phuket - the Op submitted the application regardless and is angry because his application was ignored and his complaints to them that he couldn’t make payment on the PSAS site was also ignored. 

 

IF the Op is struggling so much an agent may help. 

IF the PSAS payment portal remains a problem for the Op (perhaps because of his use of a North American Credit card) then a use of an Agent could ‘circumnavigate’ this issue.

 

But... the Op does not want to use an agent because he is reluctant to give up his private information.

 

There’s not much more that can be done to help the Op.

 

 

Perhaps the Op has a ‘friend’ in Thailand who can make payment with a domestic (Thai) card?.... 

 

I doubt all the possible options and solutions have been explored, but the Op seems far more intent on venting his understandable frustration than putting that aside and working towards a solution. 

Agreed as i put in a previous reply if you feel confident enough to complete the process and upload all the documents correctly alone feel free to crack on with it but if your not confident dealing with the authorities and the IT side of it whether TP / Visa or whatever employing an agent doesn't seem a high price to pay for peace of mind.

I equate employing an agent to changing the oil on the motorbikes i could get down on the concrete remove the plug get oil all over the place cross thread the plug upon reinsertion then struggle to to get back onto my feet or i could go to the shop and get a qualified bloke to do it for about a fiver ???? not much of a decision if I'm honest ????

There is a meeting on the 4th but I would be very surprised if the reinstate Test & Go at that time. Possible they might alter quarantine durations or suspend Phuket sandbox but if I had to bet, I'd bet on continuing the present status quo for at least a few more weeks.

 

At present your options are quarantine for  10 days (not 7) or else Phuket Sandbox. Note that for Phuket Sandbox you need to fly directly in, domestic transfer not allowed. So makes a difference to flight routing. (Might be possible to change planes if still part of your international itinerary, I am not clear on that)

Thanks for the reply I think it might be prudent to rearrange the trip unless things change (Which doesn't seem very likely)

It's political. If you think of all the little civil servants, teachers, office  and bank clerks who represent the main constituency of the Prayut Gang. All the renunciation and diligence to work your way up in the limited framework and poorly paid positions of the thai hierarchy. Then comes a Thai farm buffalo girl, stupid as bread, but with outstanding skills to suck up the reproductive juice of foreigners and gain access to money. Classical thai hierarchy levels are skipped and envy is fueled. That is the political background.

I know some really nice Buffalo girls some as thick as mince and the fact that they can suck a marble through 18 inches of garden hose has nothing to do with my admiration for them ????????

This strong man that won world and euro titles in kickboxing, died after getting covid.

I'm pretty sure he was more fit and Healthy than 99,9999 % on these fora, and yet he died after getting covid.

 

That's really sad if a vaccine would have saved his life.

Jeez, come on some of you seem to be taking this too personal.

Nothing is going to happen.  Maybe a raid here and there will be reported, but I doubt it.

Things will remain the same don't worry.

You sure ? a mate was asking ????

What has been cancelled is the Test & Go scheme and also the Sandboxes other than Phuket.

 

TP system is still operational for AQ and Phuket Sandbox.

 

No telling what the options will be come July.

 

But OP should be aware/prepared for possibility of mandatory quarantine despite vaccination status.

 

Is there supposed to be an announcement from the government regarding Thailand pass on 4th Jan 2022 ?

I have a flight to UK mid Jan returning early Feb so if the situation remains as it is at present i would need to do either 7 days quarantine in an AQ hotel in Bangkok or 7 days in the phuket sandbox ? TIA for any replies

yes im wondering if a person who is vacced got covid from an unvacced person on a plane they could sue the airline for neglect

Probably difficult to prove but easy to solve as Unvaccinated shouldn't be allowed within a mile of any airport

Both my knees are bad bad bad, hurt like hell all day everyday, I also have a cane, not for aesthetic reasons but because I need it, I struggle with one step which we have to get into the house, I know they are very unlikely to get any better, infact worse is on the cards, I struggle to get into the car these days.

Right knee was bad before i came back in June had a couple of steroid injections in uk that didn't do much, the Mrs got me some black sesame oil capsules (not usually into any of that herbal Sh*te) but have certainly felt better since i started taking them

3 months then. But where exactly?

Banglamung Hospital?

The local hospital in Phukradueng Loei

Great.

Now another important question that someone might know.

Is that hospital following the at least 6 months or the very new at least 3 months after second AZ shot protocol?

The Mrs had her 2nd jab end of September AZ and they said this morning when i had my booster that she couldn't have her booster till early Jan 

I was getting a bit worried about it TBH I had 2 AZ jabs in England Feb & May and was going to wait until my visit to England in Jan for the booster (Not so sure it will be happening looking at the news) I was spooked when they said AZ wasn't much kop against omicron, so the Mrs went to see the local pharmacist yesterday he was so helpful, i was in at the local hospital this morning for the Pfizer booster just passport and copies of AZ jabs needed couldn't believe how slick it was.
