Merangue Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 (edited) Congratulations to Jonson83, Chanthas and Gypsymoth. I hope all goes well for you. I Feel for Gypsymoth not being able to check the result immediately. This is going to one VERY long week mate. going by the dates Kennkate 17/3 Chewy 18/3 TheFiend 20/3 With luck will hear something this week and TheFiend 20/3 Sumrit 24/3 Merangue 25/3 fluidfusion 27/3 the week after. At least i hope so. As said before it would seem 10 weeks plus a few days appears to be the norm at the moment. I cannot see the application system being down for 2 days making any difference to anyone already with an application in. As i understand it it is only going to effect those wanting to make a new application on those days. Fingers crossed for us all. NB. One other thing. The fact that there are no closures due to national holidays MAY have an effect on the processing times. In as much as they may speed up very slightly if anything.

Jonson83 Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 (edited) Kennkate, the best thing to do is give them a ring once you get to chiang mai, they are actually supposed to ring you when they recieve the package but they didnt ring us?!?. The courier is located across the road from the large Tesco on the hangdong road, so it shoudlnt be too hard for you to find.Good luck. Good luck to chantas and gypsymoth aswell.

Tango7 Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Congrats to those who have their visas and good luck to those either about to pick them up or are still waiting. In my excitement to pack I fell off a ladder and broke one of my toes.... hurts like a b***h. Hobbling around and I've got so much to do !! Went to BNH to get it fixed and they took an X-Ray, told me it was broken, taped it to the next toe and sent me on my way, but not before asking for 4,500 Baht !! 1,500 of that was for medicine ???? Told them to keep the medicine and paid the rest. So, anyone excited out there....... take it easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrburb Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 So, anyone excited out there....... take it easy. I'll try!
