  1. It used to be possible to send AIS balance to another number, might be a way to give away or sell that 200 baht.
  2. No doubt you can send them your dashcam counter evidence? Or 500 baht, whichever is easier.
  3. Correct. I'd get it in the first week as you'll need the money there 2 months before applying for the annual extension. Worth noting that in case of any delays in getting the account sorted that you can also extend your initial 90 day entry by 60 days "to visit wife" if needed, giving you some more time.
  4. There is no background check. Forget about that. It is under "Staying with family" visas, specifically "To stay with Thai family residing in Thailand (more than 60 days)"
  5. You avoid the need to go to get the initial non-O that you will need to eventually get an annual extension. Yes, apply through the normal e-Visa website. If you do this then when you get your first extension that will count as your first 90 day report.
  6. It would be well worth your while applying for the Non-O whilst you are still in the US. It's an e-visa so easy to get, needs $15,000 in your US account. With that you'll avoid onward flight issues, minimise visits to immigration in Thailand and will make getting a bank account a whole lot easier.
  7. There was a "Nate" but I think a different one, irritating as I recall.
  8. ....and the flights are 5 minutes apart, not the same time.
  9. I wouldn't be so sure about that. If you go through BKK you will be stamped in and out by Suvarnabhumi Airport" immigration. However, and DMK the stamp will clearly say "Bangkok Airport".
  10. At least one of them had a plan, well before retirement age, he was operating a bar. Probably thought that would be his pension.
  11. Correct. You extended your 90 day entry and the 12 month extension starts when the 90 day entry ends.
  12. Perhaps he was standing upright and holding it about his head, in which case a 3m rod would not be unusual.
  13. Fishing line got tangled, used aluminium rod to try and disentangle it. Seems clear enough.
  14. You're correct, the VFS website is close to useless. Eventually you will work out that it is really only slightly useful for tourist visas. I used it twice for that purpose last year and everything was fine. But I wouldn't do the same again.
  15. Yes, but my point was I have never needed any of them, despite having a yellow book and I certainly never offer it unless it's asked for.
  16. I never have, nor pink/yellow things, but knowing how things can be inconsistent here there maybe some places looking for it.
  17. If that has been your modus operandi I think I'd be sending her off to the bank to update her account details.
  18. I think his office actually just follows the rules. An embassy letter is one of the things accepted and has always been.
  19. I read that as registering for the service itself, i.e. Mobile Banking or Bualuang iBanking, rather than specifically obtaining statements.
  20. Presumably guilty of sitting on the bench rather than standing like the other morons.
  21. And conversely if you did put it in an account suitable for credit card security that account would be no good for immigration.
