TLDR : Answer Summary
A Kiwi expat is seeking feedback about applying for a 90-day visa through Thailand's new online system, but many commenters express frustration over its functionality, noting it wasn't live as scheduled. The conversation touches on the Phuket incident, hinting at negative implications for New Zealanders, and uncertainties surrounding the official rollout of the new visa process.

Pardon?

Yes a couple of brothers on Phuket, I believe they found the whole experience frustrating. Last I heard they had gone for a motorbike burn up to work off their aggression

I am sure it will be ok if the cops don't stop them.

Maybe the time of day in Thailand needs to be taken into consideration. Not yet opening time in Thailand

Have they even turned it on yet? The official start date is supposed to be the 19th I believe, but most deadlines to Thais are just general suggestions.

Wasn't that Australia or is NZ doing the same?
