TLDR : Answer Summary
The conversation revolves around inquiries about the original benefits and annual fees of the Thai Elite Visa. Users suggest visiting the official Thai Elite website for detailed information, as the lifetime membership option has been discontinued. There is some confusion regarding the availability of descriptions of benefits on the website.

All the information about the various visas offered buy the thai elite program are on their website.

Seeing as they no longer offer the lifetime visa option anymore I think we've taken this as far as we can

The current one is only transferable once, the purchaser can't transfer it again. Not sure if this applies to the old memberships.

Personally, this visa offers so many more privileges compared to others, I would never go back to any other options. Any time you visit Immigration, you are not required to queue for any services. Simply identify yourself as an Elite member and you are processed immediately. Plus the

THB 1,500,000 divided by 27 or 30 years....you do the math and decide if it is a good deal for yourself.

right I considering purchase of one of the old ones. He said something about 30 years and 27 years were left. If I transfer one of the original type he said I qualify for those benefits as well. Is that true?

This option is no longer available, but those members that joined the original program, still receive the full benefits.
