My request for thai visa 60 days has been rejected, because my first name is wrong, LOL. And I payed 70โ‚ฌ instead of 35โ‚ฌ, I cannot do anything about payment. Is it serious? Can I contact someone to get more explanation, cause it is robbery

If you are not confident filling it out yourself, then pay extra and use an agent

The template for the Thai evisa is a joke. It's been made to be a cash cow. It's difficult to achieve for the average person and many will fail. When you adding more than one document to an upload it overwrites the previous document. I had to put the documents into a word document then convert it into a PDF format and upload. Many would not have the computer skills to do this. I made an error on the date of issue of my passport? No idea how I could have screwed that up. So I've paid again and I wait.

it's not a scam, if using the official Thai government Evisa website.

People who bosh it up and make mistakes will be rejected and those who do, unfortunately are responsible for their own errors.

As Brandon pointed out, the website offers ample opportunity to review prior to applying and the fee is for processing which is non-refundable.

People should learn from their mistakes, shrug their shoulders, keep a stiff upper lip and bloody well apply again.

correct and all applications I have done stated as per your passport so no excuse for putting the wrong name. Stuff up, man up and take it on the chin

It's the same when book a flight ticket. Y'r name must be exactly as in y'r passport. In my passport it's "Petrus" but my call name is "Peter". So tickets have to be booked with "Petrus". Some airliners can correct this for some money, but some don't if it's not the passport name. Guess this is about a same problem. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

I have read several times that the consulate cannot change names after a visa request is submitted. That is also why they warn several times to provide the right names. The Dutch consulate even gives examples about what to do and what not to do.

It sounds like you made multiple mistakes and your visa was rejected because of it.

If you paid more than a single entry visa then you applied for the wrong type of visa.

I don't know what to tell you about entering your name wrong.

It clearly states that visa application fee is non-refundable.
