Having trouble communicating directly with hotels on Test and Go packages - not to mention horrible delays in response on reservation inquiries, lack of complete information, won't answer questions, etc. And now, I'm down to the complete wire needing this done asap. Question: is it really unacceptable to do an Agoda booking and upload that? Has anyone had success on Thai Pass with a third party booking platform, or is it all done directly with the hotel?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The conversation revolves around challenges faced by expats when booking hotels for Thailand's Test and Go program. Users express frustrations with communication delays from hotels and inquire whether using third-party platforms like Agoda is acceptable for Thai Pass applications. Many comment on their experiences, confirming that Agoda bookings have been successfully used for Thai Pass, provided they secured necessary confirmations from the hotels. Some recommend direct communication with hotels for a smoother process. Overall, using Agoda and similar services appears to be feasible, but proper confirmation from the hotels is crucial.
