At least they finally stopped slap happy stamping on a new page every time.

Registered with them, or did you have a UK address?

It seems the thing you really want to insure against, a protracted hospital stay, is difficult to insure against.

Locals are very good at getting others to put up the capital and take the risks while they take the profits.

"Him have good heart".

There have been internal bust of low level people freelancing - the airport stamps is an example. The only one I can remember where they were fired and I think prosecuted was the Malaysian border stamps racket in the early 2000's - 2005?. What happened here was that a terrorist wanted by the US - Habibe or something was found to have used this "service". I believe there was pressure/coercion from the US that forced the hand of the authorities. A number of IO's were fired - whether or not they were acting within the system is not certain, but they were using stamps that were not signed out to them on the date of the stamp. The "service" seemed not to have been reinstated. Everybody used The Wall as their agent for this.

If you mean TM30 I would guess that agents are using the same address for multiple visa holders. You would be paying for address rental/facilitation of your upcountry visa when you live in BKK/Pattaya. You may have problems - this may be why the TM30 is under so much scrutiny, and proving the address exists and you really live there is required.

This is now happening if you want to do anything at CW (certainly "L" section, don't know for sure about others).

I would guess not. I asked one once what he was looking for on a necklace I (we) offered in exchange he was inspecting carefully. He said the hallmark of one of a handful of Thai manufacturers, and if he doesn't see that he doesn't deal.

Worse than that I am not sure it even does anything [much] - at least not enough to offset the damage it does you. If I had known then what I know now I would have avoided it or stopped after 4 sessions before the accumulation damage starts- no difference in effect according to some research.

As a general rule IO's don't second guess what another IO signed off on if the stamps and signatures are correct and it is in the system. They probably know what went down, but they know there are two tracks.

If you have a current lease and proof of utility bill payment you may be able to do it as per this thread. Landlord/owner dying and delay in transfer to new owner leaves you in limbo. Not sure how you can file other than as described.

Indeed it would, Bangkok. Edited OP.

My Oncologist is a lovely caring lady, but my Thai is not good enough and I need to ask some very direct questions of a specialist WRT continuing with Chemo or stopping, or at least stopping Oxaliplatin. Looking for a recommendation for a Bangkok located, native speaker level English, and graduate overseas*. Actual Thai Nationality is fine. *The key point here is not "better" or not, but same wavelength - when I talk with a US qualified friend we know what we are getting at as we come at things from the same angle. Same with UK graduated Thai surgeon.

I had one of these at Chula after surgery but I get the impression they have very few of them. Second surgery was call nurse.

I would guess 400 agent obtained visa holders got a call from Immigration asking them to come in for a chat. It will be interesting to see if they are proceeded against.

This is the reality for all cancer sufferers here?. How likely are you to get a bed in a Government hospital? I looked at prices for Bangkok Hospital where you recommended a palliative care specialist. $500/night just for bed and base nursing services. Chula can be as cheap as base Bt900/night, but they have hardly any beds, and some in non aircon ward. Actually SEVEN beds in aircon ward. https://www.chulacancer.net/services-list.php?gid=70

That seemed the obvious, but then it looks like a signed photocopy not an original....................

Likewise Android on two different 'phones.

How would that help when the copies have already been signed in black ink and I am trying to work out if I need to request new copies signed in blue?

Khun Per, thank you for your reply, this is where I am coming unstuck as to what is required. I have signed copy of a page with the address of the property I rent - which is this? First page of House book? Is House masters registration in "a" house book the address where the house master lives? e.g would I need: 1) Address page of the condo where I reside as tenant. 2) House book of House Masters actual address where he lives ?

Assumed name?

As far as I can tell from the below photo from an Imm office: My interpretation of this is that copies of 2 separate pages from the house book are required, specifically the page with the address of the property (which does not have the owners name on it), and a separate page that has the owners name. Can someone who has done it (filed) please clarify exactly what is needed WRT to Housebook (Office is Chaengwattana)

Specifically Landlord ID card copy, and address page of Housebook. Also a PoA form for TM30. Signature is in black ink on all. Have a vague memory of some (all?) things having to be signed in blue ink ONLY. I have always signed in blue for this reason.

A bit off topic, but what is required for re-entry permit?. From memory just the usual passport pages and the completed form, or are they now asking for updated bank book, TM30, whatever? I understand they now have a queuing system and take your photo. Getting very "Freudian" over there at CW.
