What are you and the other poster suggesting, exactly, by encouraging me to apply online, when I’ve already applied by mail? Because I don’t see how starting the entire process over by doing this will help in any way. Via LINE, Kurusapa suggested I send all my documents by mail together since some documents could only be sent by mail, according to them. Please explain your reasoning. 

You appear to have negative attitude as to the suggestion of applying online. Would you lose anything by at least giving it a try?

excellent news.

 

always good to have an option to fall back on in case for whatever reason you don't quite meet the requirements for your usual visa.

 

open them floodgates baby, let's have some fun!

I thought you were looking for a freighter to take yourself back to Blighty? Turned out to expensive I guess?

Damn. I am sure that was not the intention. Must try harder.

The same social and injustices you complain about here, are the same all over the world in all walks of life. I get the impression you're a lonely old man and this forum is your only outlet? Shame I guess, so we will all have to put up with your rantings. 

Bob only does this for the attention. Problem being, when he gets the attention, its not what was expected so he moans again. Some people are just a complete pain, as is proved by this daily diatribe of nonsense.

I’m now back in my home? or the place that I call home,. i.e the area where I do my visa..

 

I’ve just been for a meal at a regular hangout of mine.

 

Never again!

 

The service was so lousy it was unbelievable.

I ordered my usual.

It was thrown down on the table with no ‘enjoy your meal’ or anything.

they didn’t even look at me,

 

when I asked to pay my bill the woman threw the wallet down on the table.

no thank you, no nice to see you again. nothing.

I have been visiting this place a few times a year for about 10 years or so..

 

what is going on?

was it the clothes I was wearing?

was it my cologne?

or is it simply like some here have said..

they just don’t like regulars, particularly well integrated regulars who can speak the lingo.

 

something isn’t right.

it seems they love the green, fresh off the boat tourists but have no time at all for regulars who usually tip well.

i’ve done with tipping now.

until the standard of service in this country improves they wont be getting another penny out of me!!

 

bob.

I for one am not surprised. Everything you post on here is a moan about the most trivial of things. If you are like that everywhere you go, is it any wonder people treat you with contempt?

When did you say you were leaving? Friday would be a good day.

Obviously a cobbler who felt hard done by?

This all sounds quite normal for this country, you know, the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing...........

There are even countries where certain people do not have either left or right hands, and in some cases neither hands. On the other hand, pun intended, the one legged man was seen running down the road to escape the mayhem.

Over 75s should get drunk every night and hire a bed friend. Your life is nearly over. Enjoy it.

Being over 75 with a life style you suggest, I doubt you would make it 76.

It's called Chronic Xenophobia!

A translation of an Oxford dictionary would need to be supplied when using big words like that. Do try to remember where you are.

Sounds about right to me.

God created the world in 7 days even he can't save this Crap hole. I suppose they could erase prostitution and go back to the older day's when there only income was fishing.

They have learnt to fish in other ways, and it pays.

Pattayas reputation is known globally... no need to whitewash it.

Even if Pattaya were to be whitewashed, the stains would still show through.

If this is the best the finance minister can come up with, as a solution to filling empty condo's, I wonder how the country is not in very serious debt? Or is it a clever game of smoke and mirrors?

What foreigner in their right mind would invest in a country that has a proven track record of flip-flopping on almost every policy they have ever implemented?

 

are these clowns so utterly clueless as to how they look on the world stage?

surely they can't be that dumb?

 

right?

TIT, Bob. Dumb is the operative word.

Which makes me seriously wonder whether this so-called affidavit could, in fact, amount to some phishing attempt on their part aimed at targeting foreign retirees' bank balances.

 

You have pipped me to the post here. It was the first thing that crossed my mind of having read the form.

Barely readable. If they're going to roll it out to all offices, they might consider having it translated into English.

By whom precisely? It has been known that on occasions the Ministry of Foreign Affairs get translation wrong.

It was just crazy to declassify something as dangerous as alcohol to society.

I shall take more notice of what is in the bottom of my glass in future!

Who is telling porkies her? 

"Despite having reportedly extended her visa just days prior, Viscomi was informed at the airport that her visa had expired, rendering her stay illegal."

If such was the case, how did she acquire the emergency travel document?

Sounds like the check-in staff have made a big cockup? Much as appreciate there was a tear on the passport, it wasn't defaced as such. But low cost airlines are possible more careful?

Doesn’t sound like a British name.

That is not so unusual, and more so over the past 20 years!

I don't do air travel like I used to. However, this is one reason I strongly object to staples being use to attach papers into my passport. Although knowing how some immigration officers handle passports, even using a paperclip could cause damage. For instance, is really necessary to staple the 1900B receipt onto a page of the passport, also the 90 day report receipt? It is after all, a defacement of the passport.
