I used them in Bangkok to do a border run to Cambodia. It was efficient and hassle free. No pre booking and plenty of mini buses at the meeting place. Left at 4.30am from Lotus and was back about 3.00pm. Cost was 3500 baht. Had a nice meal of spaghetti and chicken at the border which was included.

DrJack54 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 OP, helps if you outline exactly what you require and where you are located. Way to vague. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I needed to know more about that company, whether they are genuine and whether I can trust them. That is all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
degodasilva Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I was in contact with them recently but in the end did the border bounce myself as I wanted to break the journey up with a night or two somewhere (and save some money). Although I ended up not using their service the guy I was communicating with was indeed very friendly and helpful. They seem perfectly legit as a company, unlike a couple of other websites I found who never got back to me. Assuming you're Bangkok based you'd be using the Ban Laem crossing. If you have time I'd recommend going to the Cambodian market (Thai side of the border) if you're interested in stocking up on some interesting (strong) Cambodian beers. Good luck.

Thank you so much, I want to use their other service, not border run, in their office in Pattaya, as it is little bit cheaper than in Bangkok.

Turns out you "want to use their other service" If it's example extension retirement or whatever just say so. This was my first post in this thread. "OP, helps if you outline exactly what you require and where you are located." That was given 2 confused emoji There are many threads on agents, even region specific Just requires clear info in the OP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJack54 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 31 minutes ago, anandra said: retirement first visa Still not clear ...however seems you require a non O based on retirement and subsequent 12 month extension. Most likely also to opened bank account in your name only also. What is current status in Thailand. Meaning how did you enter Thailand? Visa exempt, Tourist visa and how many days left on your permission of stay. Both those entries can be extended by 30 days. Here is one thread there are several. https://aseannow.com/topic/1285997-visa-agent-pattaya/ If you have your own funds it is not difficult to do it yourself.
