Is the closure of your favorite bar or restaurant imminent?
aussiexpat replied to Leaver's topic in Pattaya
Problem is you automatically think everyone that makes a positive comment about Pattaya must have a finiancial interest here. You're dillusional -
Is the closure of your favorite bar or restaurant imminent?
aussiexpat replied to Leaver's topic in Pattaya
The Pattaya sub-forum has become the "World according to Leaver" sub-forum. Every thread has multiple posts of his in a row of his constant dribble (I counted 7 in a row in one thread) Time to move on... -
Well what do you expect, it's a ferry service, not a cruise liner. Unrealistic expectations yet again
-
Just noticed this on the XE site that everyone is quoting
-
Not sure why everyone is quoting the XE rate. It's not as if that's the actual rate on the street or even received by bank transfer Been burnt a few times expecting XE rate but got <deleted> into the bank

Pattaya news says 15, which seem to include the sleeping capsules "total of 15 rooms, categorized into 5 room types: Premier, Suite, First Class, Comfort, and Capsule" https://thepattayanews.com/2022/09/11/the-blue-dolphin-ferry-successfully-launches-its-first-route-of-pattaya-samui-on-saturday/

Good on them for starting this service. For me, 2900 for a narrow aircraft type seat for 13 hours sounds a bit expensive for Thailand transport. The +500 baht for the VIP seat would seem well spent

Retirement visa/extension, the small print
aussiexpat replied to L0St's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
No opinion on agents either way, but why highlight Pattaya as a sewer, agent use is done all over Thailand -
The Damini Rate in the link is from 10 Sep, whereas the TT rate above is 27 Sep
-
As said, the yellow TT Exchange are best. They also publish their rate every day on Facebook so you know what to expect
-
Nice jump in the £ as was 39.55 yesterday. Meanwhile A$ went down ????

No sniffer dogs?

OP I've done it once. I applied for a 30 day extension at the same time I applied for my TM30 (2 days after arrival). I said I wanted to do 6 week language course and needed to have approval to stay that long before I booked. They granted the extension but I got many weird looks and more scrutiny so I never tried it again (as Dr says above, now that visa exempt is 45 days it's probably less likely)
-
I don't understand this advice to "get a screenshot of TM30 from hotel". If you stay at a decent hotel, they file a TM30 as required by law. You go to immigration, they check their computer, TM30 is there so no problem. If TM30 is not in immigration computer, do you really think some phone screenshot will make a difference (I've seen several IO's call the hotel when there was a problem and it was sorted)

No, stopped in July also. From 1 Oct entry is the same as pre-covid, nothing to show. In fact even better, no TM6 entry card required either. Just passport and boarding pass.
-
Thai Pass ended in July
-
Rate on the street. US$ almost at parity to the £ (Aussie $ also sucks)
-
Why does every thread that mentions covid turn into a mask debate ???? I'm just hoping this means we can watch the NFL games again as most start at 1 am. Go Niners ????
-
A lot of people getting their hopes up for a random chat in a bar with an alleged friend of the owner that said they'll be opening....
-
There are no official limits to the number of visa exempt entries arriving by flight
-
If you gogle "Section 38 App" it gives the following link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=th.go.immigration.section38

At least they are learning then as the pipes they just fitted on soi 15 between Bukhao and 2nd road were at least 1.5m in diameter
-
Download the Section 38 App

I'm arriving 11 Oct with a return 75 days later (45 days visa exempt + 30 days extension) I'm not concerned at all as Airline has a paid ticket should I be very unlikely denied entry ($70 change booking fee)
-
I had a personal passport and a Defence diplomatic passport for over 20 years, all I know was that I was instructed that whatever passport I left on, I must use for entire journey, if that's not the rules then so be it (Only posted because someone above said you can come and go on any passport switching as you like)
