Well years ago, everybody was complaining about CCTV and now nobody can live without it

19 day overstay?  She couldn’t even make it to 1,000 days.  What an amateur!

This infers that an "internet connection'' is somehow the latest technology? Its been out over 35 years?

It was sarcasm my friend!

Four immigration super sleuths pictured looking pleased with themselves and a BMW pulled into the mix for a 19 day overstay!

 

Well done lads, marvellous teamwork

 

I wonder if these guys could cope faced with ' real crime ? '   like driving through a red light at the airport!

I dont know how much the IO gets, but I am sure you are in the right ball park. If its illegal surely they would be arrested?????

It is highly illegal and they don't get arrested as they are in cohorts with the police. 

If you use an agent, please never complain about corruption in Thailand!

Thai internet is among the best in the world, and has been for 20 years or so. Only Korea is better in Asia. Compared to China, Thai internet is amazing!

Never have and never will use an agent.

Wow, a 19 day overstay, public enemy number 1 

They should have waited till she be here at least 10 years overstay. Then it would be ok.

Correct if you go to the airport and have a boarding pass to somewhere out of Thailand, the 19 days overstay would not be a problem, just a fine?

Good to know it’s still like this
