@Vitaly *******

around midnight on Friday and Saturday and maybe other midnights too almost all electronic payment systems in Thailand failed even credit cards because the banks cannot handle the volumes.

I have is from a person who is building payment processing terminals...

@Jack ******

don't they more or less require paychecks?

Useless. I see no benefit. Every 10 times you try to use QR codes the bank doesn't respond or it's off or we do maintenance or it doesn't plane work anyway. I have bank accounts but even so.

So your cash always work.

If you need to pay your electricity bill you can just go to 7-Eleven and pay there been scan it and you pay them cash.

it's not a Visa. It's "visa exempt entry".

@John ********

I lived in Thailand for 5 years and so far the digital services and the Colby at the Schultz sign up was all not working and basically a failure so....

Luckily I'm on a different Visa

@John ********

actually the issue is that he can't enter the actual name on his passport...

And people seem to indicate that you should type in the machine readable part of the passport but that's not your name!

If they want you to type exactly what's written in the machine readable part of the passport they should be saying that!

0h and does that include the < character between names? :-D

It's a money grift. They should prepolulate the fields from the passport. Many apps do these days.

And in small differences like this. Person should review it.

Similar with 90 day report. Refused without any good reason.

Considering the roads in Cambodia and the buses I would not take any longer trips there on the road.

And the land crossing borders are closed

It's not the number of entries that matters it's if it looks like you're trying to live here.

If you're being here twice and you maxed out the time each time I'd suggest to get any appropriate kind of Visa.

@Vanessa *****

or debit card (visa mastercard etc)... What did you use?

@Vanessa *****

well zip code thing seems strange because only American companies use zip code when they charge a credit card. But for foreign transaction no other country use zip codes or anything else.

International credit card transactions are done purely the credit card number the expiry date and the "secret" three digits on the back... Secure. Lol
