Can I use my hotel receipts to renew my visa if the hotel won't provide a TM30 letter?

The original poster is facing an issue renewing their visa as their hotel is refusing to provide a TM30 letter, which is often required for immigration processes. The discussion suggests that the hotel should have registered the OP within 24 hours of their arrival, and there are conflicting opinions on whether hotel receipts can substitute for the required documentation. Many users recommend booking a different hotel and promptly asking for the TM30, emphasizing that they should be able to obtain a copy of this document from any hotel where they legally resided.
