  1. Hi wondered if you would mind advising which passport office did this. I lost my passport in Mexico last month with a DTV Visa new passport and copy of the old paspport. But Phuket office gave me some b/s Any help greatly received received. Cheeers Robbie
  2. I think i bought Columbian on Lazada (starbucks) but not sure. Personally for me this is the best. But not always easy to find on Lazada They have a variety as you say. Guatemalan if you can find it is a very relaxing coffee you can drink in the afternoon. Just tried 'Verona' a French Dark roast definiterly from Starnucks, which is ok but I wont be going back to it. Hope of help Anyone with recommended brands other than Starbuck for Columbia please let me know.
  3. Can I do my FIRST 90 day report at the Phuket Drive though ?
  4. You need a contrast agent to highlight things - they usually use Gadolinium. Indeed an MRI used to be a GMRI until too many patients got too scared by the name and radioactive impression. I had a MRI with contrast (Gadolinium) about four years ago on my eye and it was fine. Though the Dr did not want to admit Gadolinium was being used until I told him I used to work in that industry. Anyway you have no problems from a radioactive standpoint and I only mention it as if you say I need a contrast /Gadolinium MRI they should understand you know what you are talking about - and you wont get a dud scan. The drip feeding it in my case went in a vein on my hand just down from my middle finger. Hope it helps
  5. Hi hoping someone can genuinely help. Basically I am trying to apply for my first education Visa which I would like to convert at Phuket immigration. One language school however has told me that whilst I qualify my past history seems to be the problem with a lot of border run stamps/ and one SETV and one METV between 2017 - mid 2019 (when it was legal to do so and would likely see Phuket immigration refuse it because of this) though they are checking but have suggested a new passport. This though is simply not possible with a current 10 week wait for a UK passport as it would force an overstay in either Thailand or the Philippines and I have nowhere to return to in the Uk. FYI Since, July 16 2019 - June 29 2022 and from Jan 18 2023 till now I have been in the Philippines permanently and have ACRI 1 year visa cards each and every year to that effect and indeed up until March 2024. In between I was in Thailand. Could anyone advise of the following The name of a verified Visa agent/Company that would perhaps be able to help facilitate the Ed Visa ? The friendliest regional office for Education Visa’s given what I state eg Laos etc etc ? If I would then still have a problem getting extensions to the Ed Visa in Phuket every 3 months if I obtained the Visa out of country. Please feel free to PM me if you have information that you would prefer to keep non public but might help. Otherwise I welcome all comments that are helpful and factual. Nb also I am 48 so too young for retirement visa, medically retired (so can’t/don’t work), and not married or have children - so I do not qualify for any other long term Visa’ (Elite being too expensive). And being honest just trying to get by until I can apply for a retirement Visa. Please note I have never had an overstay also. Thank you in advance - please note I am new to this forum so would appreciate just serious answers only. All the best.
