I studied for 4 months at
@RTL-S*****
and was at a conversational level. I then used the skills I learned there and became fluent in a year.

It's a great school and they have both private and group classes 5 days week. They help you with the ED visa if you study for a year.

You can get ED visas for
*****
or a business visa for
*****
.

Both are real visas but it's not 100% legal, since you're buying them through corrupt immigration officers.

Contact multiple visa agencies on Facebook to get the best price. Don't mention how much other agents have asked for.

That's a con. A TOURIST would not have a bank account in Thailand when going to Thailand as a tourist.

Check out
@RTL-S*****
in Bangkok. I was at a conversational level after 4 months there and with the base I got from them I got to fluent in a years time.

Study and practice outside of school all the time and use YouTube to learn phrases, tones and the alphabet. The more you're around the language, the easier the tones will get.

But because Thai is a tonal language, which English isn't, if you spend 90% of your time speaking and hearing English, nothing, except the basics, will stick.

I use my Swedish sim to get texts from..my Swedish bank here in Thailand.

Just put your Turkish or Aus sim in your phone and make the purchase.

just answering the question you asked. That is what would have happened if you didn't call to confirm. They need confirmation from the hotel and if they don't get it they cancel the booking. Same with flights.
