Because I cannot do them.

I have no record in the database that the online reporting system checks. My last entry was prior to 2013 and a new passport as well.

As usual since online reporting started I tried a few times and as always I get the message to contact my local office.

TBH Joe that was my experience until yesterday, no one was more surprised than me when I got past the first page and then completed and approved 

PS, just to add - I tried a few days ago but was just outside the 15 day window and I didn't get past the first page 

just for information - my last entry into Thailand was 2014 using my old passport and completed many online reports up until my new passport

“They can hold their giveaways at their local District Office or police station, where social distancing can be managed,” he explained.

perhaps local authorities should have announced that first so that people wishing to help with donations can do it safely

IMO the blame for this is with the local Authorities for not giving guidance on how it should be done safely and under supervision 

Seventeen people had high risk exposure to this patient, so how do they know he didn't get of one of the 17 

or

including him 18 people have been exposed to someone else that one of them was exposed too

But again the tone of the story is clear - it was the farangs fault

Hi, I live near imigration and there are not many people.  I would like to do my 90 day there, dont trust online.    How much time ahead can i do it?  thanks

 

Just do it online for gods sake - you are not signing your life over 

if you want something not to trust - Facebook and google would be a good place to start

So there are now 2 reports of posters getting their on-line 90-day report approved on a new passport without having left/re-entered Thailand (and thus using the TM-6 arrival/departure card of their previous entry on their old passport).

Obviously IO must have made some changes recently, as this was previously not possible.

Just like @Advocate has been telling us these last few days

I can now back him up as it 100% worked for me too

The question was "Where would you travel to Thailand" Not what is preferred destination?  

no it wasn't - read the article again - it was not Thai specific it was but carefully worded to maybe seem that way, it did quote that 71% would "like" to travel to Thailand  - and I quote

...................................................

 A comprehensive new survey of consumers in China’s first tier cities has concluded that 53% of respondents would like to travel overseas within 2020

....................................................

A strong positive message from the research is that 71% of Chinese consumers said they would like to visit Thailand. 

......................................

The most significant takeaway was that Chines now prefer individual travel (83%) as opposed to tours - that will not make Thailand happy at all as that is how they gouge Chinese tourists - leading them round like sheep to predefined venues/locations on predefine tours at predefined prices, this survey is an indication that Chinese are now wanting to travel like western tourists (farangs)

so will have to check manually for approval via the website as I won't be getting an email............will create a new .com email address just for this purpose in the future

checked just now and "Approved"

That I use a .net address with immigration.
It was not rejected.

So the system does not reject all .net address.

Simple as that.

so have I and never a problem until today, there is nothing wrong with my email address, like I said changing from .net to .com fixed the issue and just for info - I have a degree in networking

monstrous government screwup; illustrates what kind of a government we have here

they didn't want to pay it - in the PM's own words - "They cannot afford it" or don't feel it is a worthy cause lol, I know what they regard as a worthy cause

That must be idiosyncratic to your email address.
 

The usual email address I use is a .net and it is only for Udon immigration (incidentally immigration was either hacked or sold email addresses last year, so now I am using an even more special one for them) though I have .biz and .info that I can use if needed

no idea what you are trying to say, it rejected .net simple as that

You are 100% wrong. It was approved at 11:14 20200420. The fastest approval I have ever had online.

 

Attached is evidence of the email notifying approval, the online evidence of approval, and the next appointment receipt.

yes and read my above post mate - I got a result now pending on a new passport - thanks for taking the time and starting this sub conversation with your post - many thanks

actually not correct - if he got to the "pending" status then his new passport has been accepted in the online reporting system - if it is not approved it will be for another reason 

 

I just tried mine again and it still does not get past the first page - I was able to do online reporting for several years until I renewed my passport - still have not left thailand on new passport - will try again tomorrow because I am right on the 15 days but I don't think it will work

Ok so as I said above I would try again when I was well inside the 15 day period and I got a result - worked flawlessly and that is on a new passport that has never stepped outside Thailand, I tried this before and it definately did not accept it but now it does so ....................something has changed 

The only part of the process that was problematic was my email address that although worked before with the extension .net would not work this time, I had to change it to .com even though that email does not exist

so will have to check manually for approval via the website as I won't be getting an email............will create a new .com email address just for this purpose in the future

It is now crystal clear, and it is as good as certain that the on-line submission of your 90-day report will NOT be accepted by your local IO (CW).

The reason being that there is no link between your new passport, issued May 2019 at the Australian Embassy in BB, and the TM-6 arrival/departure card you obtained the last time you entered Thailand in December 2014.

totally disagree with this

The actual approval is a manual process at IO - no different than if he went in person - so it will be approved because he was able to actually submit the application through the online system, the question still remains - how did the online system work with his new passport if he has not used it to enter the country - that as yet is unanswered

In case you hadn't noticed, for the past month that percentage increase daily on this forum, populated by armchair economists.

 

It has gone from some 12% a month ago to 25% today, expect more increases in the following weeks as solitary weighs heavy on some.

 

If lock downs stay for one more month, expect to see numbers exceeding 100%

it was 20% 2019, I am adding to it because the government have no idea how the grey sector contributes or even how many there are working off books but still earning huge money  - we saw this exposed when they offered the 5k support subsidy and over 10m applied

The have both been approach by Fox News to run their own primetime news spot lol
