I just did my 20th yearly extension based on retirement with 800000 baht in bank account.Did extension at Chaeng Wattana Bangkok.

All they required was letter from bank stating amount in my bank account and then copies of my bankbook for the last twelve months, so they could

check money transfer from overseas to my account.Also required to see original bankbook with update on day of extension.I never had any problems in the twenty years

I did extension, maybe because my account never goes below 800000.

How many days has it been since you submitted and got the 'submission accepted' mail? 

 

Recently, my experience waiting for APPROVED or REJECTED with CW is about 3-4 days. The immigration office was closed during the APEC conference, three working days I believe, so there is  likely a healthy backlog of submissions to clear. So that would probably add a few more days before you'd hear back. 

 

And yes, as UJ said, you have time enough to submit one again. 

I had the same experience.Submitted my 90 days notification on Thursday the 24th and got message immediately that it was received.But just got the approval yesterday 

monday 28th.So there seem to be a delay of about 3-4 days, so just be patient.

Sorry to hear about your problems with residence certificate.Every time I have bought a new car or sold the old one, I went to my embassy and had them issue a residence certificate.It cost a little more than at the immigration, but it is very convenient, sometime if the embassy is not to busy, I sit and wait and get the certificate same time.

Of course I don't know your nationality, if it is even possible, but I am danish and it works every time.No need for agents or immigration, where it takes 2-3 weeks just to get a letter, crazy in my opinion.For selling the old car I just made a copy of the original residence certificate, but for buying a new car you need the original certificate.

Let me clarify.I use the money in account method for retirement extension, so I just took photocopies of the last years movement in the account, this was accepted.

I did not go to the bank for complete bank statement.

further to above, you need to show your bank book, so pls bring it.

I plan to do this soon. Were you able to get a 1 yr bank statement the same day? Never heard of CW Imm wanting a statement longer than 6 months for anything before, let alone a 'simple' stamp transfer.

I did my transfer yesterday at Chaengwattana, they also wanted a 1-year bank statement.I am not sure, if this is something new.

Fully vaccinated with Pfizer 2 shots here in Bangkok at BNH hospital.Last shot 16th September

I had the same problem.Using the app on iPhone 12.Updated the app to-day to ver 1.7.1 and now it is working normal.

Is anyone else expecting the release of HomePod mini here?

 

Any news or rumours? 

As with HomePod it will probably not be available in Thailand

I have several accounts included an American account, but in order to play movie here in Thailand you have to use a VPN.

When using vpn and selecting a US server then the app is working perfectly.

You have it covered. I was at CW few weeks ago. Surprised when they asked for map. I had condo flyer with printed map. Some offices require a hand drawn map. Next year I indeed to take hand drawn, and flyer, and Google map print out. They can take their pic

I did my extension on the 4th this month, gave them a printout of google maps which they accepted, so I will be doing that from now on.It was my first time they asked for a map in the 15 years I have been doing the extension

based on retirement.

Thank you for your quick and very helpful reply.

From what I read, I understood that Imperial World Ladprao only serviced workers, and from the CMLV countries? You've had reports of people like me doing 90-day reporting there recently?

 

I just did my 90-days report at Imperial World Ladprao on the 7th march 2017.In and out within 20 minutes.They have a counter special for 90-days reporting, so you will not be delayed by all the workers from CMLV countries.

I was also informed that they have now opened one more location for 90 days reporting at Big C Don Mueang 3rd floor, opposite Saphan Mai market, it has been opened since December 16th 2016.It all depends on which part of Bangkok you are located in.

Try VPN provider GoTrusted.com, I use it every day for Netflix on my Apple Tv, all you have to do is change DNS settings manual on apple tv.It is however not free, it will cost you US$ 5.99/month.

Anyway have a look at their website.

In the new channel line you will see an asterix next to some of the channel numbers, like ch 114, ch 119, ch 125 etc., you get the idea.In the footnote on the channel line up, one asterix indicates these channels are only available for CATV subscribers, so if you are a satellite subscriber you are out of luck

There seems to be some confusing comments regarding how the immigration counts the 90 days.I have been on extension of visa based on retirement for the last 10 years here in Bangkok.Everytime I do my 90 days reporting at Chaengwattana Immigration they count the 90 days from the day I report in, be it 15 days early or 7 days late, never from the date of my last report.Hope this clarifies it for Chaengwattana, but as some OP's report there may be different procedures at the different immigration offices.

Hi all,

I just went there to-day for my 90 days reporting.Arrived by noon in my own car.Parked in the back and went in the backdoor.Got my number right away, it was number 44 and they were already at no. 39, so I was out in about 10 minutes.Can highly recommend this office, even if I had to drive from Ramintra Road near Fashion Island.Roundtrip took less than 2 hours.

Hi I have been using unblock-us, but is does not work with True, they seem to be blacklisted.However I am able to use Netflix on my apple tv using unotelly.They can be found on www.unotelly.com.All what you have to do is manually changing the DNS on your apple tv and you are good to go.

As for using Netflix on my iPad then i use VPN, the company I use is called blackVPN, they are of course not free, but charge a monthly fee of a few dollars.
