  1. Thank you for your reply!

    Well in one way, I'm lucky as me and my ex are still on speaking terms. But what if someone does not have contact or the spouse refuses just out of spite? There is no sense whatsoever in this request from Immigration. 

     

    My extension expires tomorrow, immigration has told me not to come back, but that they will call me. I have no proof that I have submitted the paperwork nor did they take the 1900 application fee.. They just told my son and me to go home. All very strange..

     

    I have to go back in the morning again as I won't risk having them come the day after and say I'm on overstay...

  2. Has anyone been asked in Bangkok for their ex-spouse to show up for the extension of Non-O based on Thai child?
    I have been divorced for 5 years, always renewed in Hua Hin, but yesterday in Bangkok I was told that my ex-wife needs to accompany me and my son in order to renew my visa.


    What kind of logic is that? She could be re-married and moved to any other country in the world, despite having shared custody.

     

    Anyone had the same experience?
    I assume they are just looking for an envelope..?

  3. After 15 years of constantly being sick (as in fever and fatigue) and no doctors at the private hospitals finding anything wrong, my last doctor told me to find an immunologist.

    Does anyone have a reference or info on where I can find a reputable doctor who doesn't just take the normal blood tests and say he/she doesn't know what's wrong when they come back normal and who is preferable versed in the immune system

     

     

  4. I had a friend pass 2 days ago to pick something up for me and the reply was that they didn't have it anymore and that they were shutting down.. only reply was to go get it at a hospital instead..

    I don't know if it's true or not but I'm sure it would be a big inconvenience for many..

  5. Just heard the big pharmacy between Sukhumvit soi 2-4 (next to Nana) is closing down...?

    I guess many have relied on that pharamacy for all kinds of various supplies...

     

    Anyone knows of another decent sized pharmacy that carries a big assortment as them

  6. The landoffice has that information. And yes if an agent's lips are moving then ....

    I always give the check to the buyer after the title is transferred. No risk is better then a small risk.

    Yawn yawn, the OP hasnt mentioned an agent, he stated developer or current owner, move on please KJ, the land office will not have that information, the current owner will need to obtain from JP office.

    Triple yawn, as that is incorrect again, seems to be the norm, are you an agent by change?. Sure the JP office should know, but not always the case.

    Landoffice is the only place that knows what is currently registered. It is on the moment you are transferring the condo in your name that the percentages are checked. With a building that is still under construction the risks is that the balance between foreign and Thai can change with sales. So what they do is first say there is still room (even when it is close to 49%), collect your down payment. The more professional (reputable) ones will make it a guarantee as they will do their work mostly correct, but still the only penalty for them is that you get your money back, not the intention when you buy. With 'dodgy' developers, anything goes.

    Agents, developer, broker, lawyer etc are mostly interested in one thing only and that is make money. Nothing wrong with that, only the little 'white' lies to make everything more smooth (for them) is what you should be aware of.

    And in Thailand they get away with it. What is acceptable here would never be accepted in a western country.

    Where do you live? In some wonderfull world where nobody twists the truth a little in their advantage?

    And guess what, those little 'white' lies are never in your favor.

    Check, double check, triple check, then continue. The OP is not buying a pair of 199 baht shoes!

    As a foreigner you can't transfer the condo to your name unless the seller proves that there is enough quota in the building. The seller has to get a debt free letter och information about the foreign/thai ownership quota from the juristic person in the building. Without these, there will be no sale or transfer.

    The landoffice does NOT have this information. Period.

  7. Trogers - you have been spewing your negative views on the Bangkok property market for the last 5 years. Both here on thaivisa and on prakard. So far you have been wrong, but keep going and you may eventually be right...

    Actually rental prices have not followed upwards at the same pace where appreciating of property prices has risen with almost 100%

    Your 1.55m condos are located in the low quality Klong Toey housing projects for the less fortunate...

  8. Last couple of days getting frequent

    "Error 324 (net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE): " in Chrome

    and in Firefox

    "The connection was reset. The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading."

    On pages ranging from Youtube, Flickr and other small sites as well...

    Happens on 5 computers on 2 different locations in Sukhumvit, Bangkok.

    Caches, cookies, settings all cleared and rebooted..

    Latest version of Firefox, IE and Chrome

  9. Apparently Lumpini Police station is involved and the police who raided the office are from another district or other type of police...

    Lumpini Police has had one of their own stationed at the premises to make sure this didn't happen so the order must have come from higher up to raid this office, probably because of the death of a call center staff a couple of weeks ago.
