OliverKlozerof Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 I've used it a couple times this year (though it's about as user friendly as a World War I tank). Today, entering characters takes forever. Finally got through first page (switched to Safari), but clicking Submit does nothing. Anyone else experiencing this? Is this part of the DOS attacks on gov't websites?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post oncearugge Posted October 4, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted October 4, 2015 Strange. I have made two successful online reports. I shall be doing the third in a few days time and do not anticipate any problem. Much of the "difficulty" described I suspect is due to user error/incompetence but some will not be able to use the facility because their details are not on the database. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OliverKlozerof Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 I've used it successfully twice. The first time I learned their way of doing things. This time, the site is either not cooperating, or my internet connection is just too slow tonight (possible). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glegolo Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) If you have that slow internet, so the tips of the day must be, to get up in the morning, use the much faster morning-internet-speed and do it.... Should do the trick I believe! Good luck.. Glegolo Edited October 5, 2015 by glegolo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Since they changed to the https site you need use IE or an extension on other browsers. Did you use the agent switcher in Safari to emulate IE. Many people have had problems with Safari. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) I have done two successful reports using IE (I take it out of the closet just for that). Just tried status check with Firefox and can confirm this odd behavior. Almost impossible to enter passport nr. Unusable with FF (without additional tools etc.). Rechecked with IE: data can be entered. But when trying to open the approved page (magnifying glass) I get the security warning again. Confusing Then when I click the "Next Appointment Print" I get a message box about the website trying to close a tab. Confusing again. Select "No". And then finally I can open the appointment pdf (PDF, "receipt of notification"). Nothing about denial of service or slow internet. Slow internet: while you fill such a form the data is not sent over the internet before you "OK"/complete it. Thats a purely local behavior on your computer. Chrome (pure): also basically unusable.

ubonjoe Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 There have been reports that IE tab works good on Firefox. I have used it on Chrome and was able to fill out the first page.without a problem but I cannot go any further because of my old entry date. I have also checked it out on Windows 10 using the Edge browser with IE selected and filled in the page. If using an Apple product the only thing you can use is Safari with IE selected by using its built in agent switcher. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) There have been reports that IE tab works good on Firefox OK, convinced. Just installed "IE Tab V2 (Enhanced IE Tab)" on FF 41.0.1. Works flawless. Even better than with my IE 11 No strange "close tab" or repeated security warning. This IE tab emulates some older IE version. Have not seen this kind of IE security dialog for years BTW: this immigration website contains some parameter "X-UA-Compatible IE=8". Seriously: the site is better used with the IE Tab addon instead of the latest IE version Edited October 5, 2015 by KhunBENQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony M Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 I submitted online last week ( my third online reporting). The status has been "pending" ever since. I'll give it a couple more days, then if nothing happens, I'll go to the immigration office to submit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidill Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 I have been trying this morning to report 90 day but cannot get beyond the first page. Click submit page goes blank nothing happens. This is the first time I have tried so I reckon I will go back to a morning visit to immigration at least it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avander Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 After doing 2 earlier 90 day reports without a problem the last one was a nightmare with very laggy text and errors making it impossible to progress. I loaded the OE Tab emulator for chrome and still had issues. Tried the same a few days later and still slow but not nearly as bad and managed to get through ok. Approved now but no approval email Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerry123 Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 ok as a resume. Reading many posts on this subject it would seem that the system has been given a fair time to stabilize, it clearly has not, even taking note of success stories (well a few ) it has developed into what i see as an IT disaster i hate to say it but to launch a system so fragile and sensitive to operate was a very big mistake, one wonders what was the motivation behind introducing it in the first place ? surely was not pressure from expats to enhance the experience and sometimes tedious system of the 90 day report 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slipperylobster Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) No sweat...used it twice with opera. It would take me less than 10 minutes to do a 90 day report from my armchair. Only three small problems.... 1. On the opening screen, you have to scroll down in the window (within the page) and click on the understanding requirement. 2. If you are American...click on American (duh) don't look for USA as it only refers to territories. 3. After entering the coded letters/numbers....wait for it to register..takes more than a few seconds...do not keep clicking it. I know there are issues of people that have to leave thailand and reenter, because they been here quite a while. I think some people are trying to jinx this great, easy to do reporting method by saying they are not capable of figuring it out. Other than that....any reasonably intelligent guy should be able to wade through the 10 or so questions.

gerry123 Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) ok point taken but this one success against 8 unsuccessful attempts that i read about over the last 2 days i have not or capable of doing the math as a percentage but i think pretty dismal i myself have made two online reports thinking wow pretty good eh but both those were very hit or miss yes successful but really up to four tries each application Edited October 5, 2015 by gerry123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprize......I think actually I got my reporting through just a few minutes ago..if its correct that the last page coming up is with details filled in, a bar code and a reference number? What do I need to do now, wait for a e-mail or check on their webpage? Thanks Felt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OliverKlozerof Posted October 5, 2015 Author Share Posted October 5, 2015 On my past two successful reports, I used FF on my Mac. (The only parts that were actually holding me up were 1) scrolling down and click the check box on the "agreement", 2) choosing "American" instead of "USA"--when all other options were country names, not adjectives; and 3) navigating the correct choices for my address.) This time, since I took copious notes from the previous two times, I figured it should be a piece of cake...but nope. Tonight, again, I try FF: nope. Safari (with Developer menu enabled, then choose IE 8 emulation): nope. Chrome: Nope. Get first page filled in on all of them no problem. But then click Submit...it appears to be going to next page, but just white screen of death forever. Looks like I'm going to have to go back to the mail-in method. Or wait, maybe there's no longer time for that route and I'll have to take a freaking taxi out to CW and back. I like living here, but I liked it when online report worked better.

What do I need to do now, wait for a e-mail or check on their webpage? Do both. I only got an email on my first report. The second report was approved without email notification. So do a daily check. BTW: for checking the status you can also use passport nr and birthday (second tab) instead of this reference number.

keeniau96 Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 I just checked on my Chrome on Linux OS. The IE Tab extension did not install (with profuse apologies from Google re no doing Linux ... yet) But got directed to IE cloud version which clicked and installed, then worked very fine on the Immi page. Looking good for when I do my next one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The blank page often means you are getting a pop up message that is being blocked by a pop up blocker. It is probably the message to contact you local immigration office. Go back and check that you entered every thing correctly. CW is not your only choice to do your 90 day reports. You can do them at the Imperial Word Lad Phrao or Major Hollywood Suksawat offices..

OliverKlozerof Posted October 6, 2015 Author Share Posted October 6, 2015 From reading here, it appears that since they decided to make the site secure (https...), no amount of custom settings on a Mac browser will work. I haven't run Windoze via Parallels (virtualization software), for a while, but went ahead and installed it again on my Mac. I had a Windoze 7 virtual machine image on another disk, so copied that back in. It includes IE 8, which appears to be the browser the 90-day site was built for. After I got that all working, the site worked exactly how it used to. I.e., the auto-suggest features of some of the fields worked again, whereas from any of the Mac-side browsers, they didn't. Got through all the pages easily, then submitted the whole thing. Got the bar code confirmation. Quite sure it will work this time. Moral seems to be that since they went to https, you *must* use an actual copy of Windoze IE (with version 8 being preferred). Punishing experience, overall. Now it's time to go tighten my cilice.

Anyone have this problem before? I get it every time because my last entry into the country is to old. An entry prior to 2013 will cause that message. The message basically means your record could not be found. Also getting a new passport since your last entry can cause it. Double check that info you entered is correct. Be sure you use the pull down menus for nationality and etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gandalf12 Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 I tried the same for my last 90 day report which was 2 weeks ago. Entered the verification code and nothing.
