Important question, have you used Friendly Thai Visa service?

Hi everyone, thank you so much for all your replies and advice so far — we really appreciate it! 🙏 Just to clarify our situation a bit more: - We were in Thailand on a one-year ED visa, which expired recently. - We left Thailand on time to avoid overstaying and we had the brilliant idea to fly to Vietnam without any agent or similar, planning to re-enter on a visa exemption, as we are from EU and have done that before without any issues (we did that before we had a one-year ED visa track record in our passport, so that’s probably one reason we got investigated). - Unfortunately, when we landed at Bangkok Suvarnabhumi a few days ago, immigration denied us entry and sent us back to Vietnam. They told us we must apply for a Tourist E-Visa instead of using the exemption. Now we’re in Vietnam and want to return because we still have personal belongings there. After being denied once, we really can’t risk being refused again — it’s stressful and expensive. We contacted several agents for help. One agent (not FTV) told us that we have been flagged in the immigration system under sections 2, 3, and 9 — but they didn’t explain what those mean, saying it’s “only for immigration use,” so we honestly have no idea what that implies. Friendly Thai Visa (FTV) offered us their “Safe Entry” airport service for 8K THB per person. They said someone will wait for us at BKK airport, escort us directly to an immigration officer, and we’ll get a new 60-day Tourist Visa stamp with no questions asked, all done in about 5 minutes. We have seen many different prices posted online for the same service, so we asked about that too. FTV explained to us: “Price depends on customer case — we have some 4500, 5000, 7000, 8000, 13,000. Variety price that ask from team so your case officer mentioned too seriously than normal so need to pay many parties. We cannot tell much more details.” So far, we haven’t found any clear, recent feedback about this exact service, so we are hoping to hear from real people who used it at BKK airport: Did it work exactly as described? Were you asked anything by immigration or needed to show cash, bank statements, or an exit ticket? Did you have any problems traveling domestically or internationally afterwards? We are trying to be very careful because we can’t afford to be bounced again. Any genuine feedback, tips, or warnings would mean a lot to us — thank you so much for helping us decide what to do next! 🙏

Hi everyone, I’d like to ask for some feedback or experiences regarding Friendly Thai Visa Services. FB: https://www.facebook.com/people/Friendly-Thai-Visa-Services/61552069237778/ Here’s our situation: My partner and I were studying in Thailand on an ED visa, which has now expired. We left Thailand and tried to re-enter on a visa exemption but were denied entry at Bangkok Suv airport. Immigration told us to apply for an e-visa instead. While researching solutions, we came across Friendly Thai Visa Safe Services. We contacted them via Facebook and WhatsApp. They offered us a “safe entry” airport service for 8K THB per person. How they described it: We book a flight to BKK Suvarnabhumi at specific arrival times they suggest. Upon arrival, someone will be waiting to escort us directly to an immigration officer, skipping the normal queue. The officer will stamp a new 60-day Tourist Visa into our passports “without any questions asked”. The whole process is supposed to take about 5 minutes, and then we are free to go. They guaranteed us that there would be no problems or questions at immigration, and that the passport stamp is official and valid for domestic and international flights afterwards. We want to know: Has anyone here actually used this specific airport service with Friendly Thai Visa? Did it work exactly as promised? Were you asked anything by immigration or did they check any documents or cash? Did you have any problems afterwards with airlines or at exit immigration? We are quite stressed and want to make sure this is truly legit before committing to it, as 8K THB per person is not a small amount for us. Any real feedback, tips, or warnings would be greatly appreciated! Thank you so much in advance for sharing your experiences.
