Has anyone, who applied for a Thai Pass on Nov 1st, received their QR code yet? Has anyone applied more than once using the system, and if you did, how did it affect your results or waiting time? Thanks folks...

TLDR : Answer Summary
Many users who applied for the Thai Pass on November 1st are currently awaiting their QR codes, with some reporting significant delays. Several applicants mentioned trying multiple times, with some receiving their QR code only after submitting several applications. Users have also shared tips that may help, including using a Gmail address for applications, ensuring confirmation emails are received, and the importance of the correct documentation. Frustration is rising among those with upcoming travel plans and no confirmations.

I've got an agent doing it for me. Paid hotel. Have Visa but no confirmation or QR code yet. I got them to apply on the 1st Nov. Arrangements are me to leave the UK on the 22th Nov.

I'm pissed off with all this crap.

I applied again after applying on 1st Nov and heard nothing. The second time, I used a gmail email address and at least got the confirmation email immediately.

but in flight date order.

I spoke with the embassy yesterday but they told me to wait as they will do it in BKK and we’re confident it would come in time. As it has.

I'm waiting 4 days now. 2 applications and one is a Thai national. I have paid for 2 rooms and my insurance. I am losing my will to go at all now. I am preparing myself to delay untill this stupidity has been abandoned. Yes I will lose a thousand pounds or so and my gf will become illegal in uk. This is not how it should be and yet I kinda knew it would be. I know how Thai mind works.
