you do pay a premium for those sorts of tickets

sure but why would you worry about any of that when a few minutes and 15 dollars buys a ticket out that you can throw away. If you want to stay 90 days you can unless you are deported so book your return for 90 days and buy a cheap bus out for 60 days. Much easier and much cheaper

free admin change yes but if the flight youre changing to was on a more expensive date ie over xmas etc, you still pay the difference. Its only the admin thats free, the difference in actual flight cost you still pay. Much easier to book for 90 days then buy a $15 bus ticket out

in theory no as the 30 days isnt a given. Ive had this problem. I just bought a $15 train ticket to malaysia

You can technically but you must have a ticket to leave thailand to somewhere within 60 days

I do the same. 6 months uk 6 months thailand previously on METV now on visa exempt. Very simple

@George ******
indeed. I think simply they thought it wasnt a big issue and wouldnt be a big problem if caught. It would be which is why i reminded everyone

@George ******
honestly, no problem. Lots been said. Really the amounts dont matter. It was more a polite reminder of the implications of what the poster was suggesting. Anyhow, no problem

i am Brittish and since Covid the pension due to the triple lock and double digit inflation has increased notable in 4 years. If youre in Thailand retired for 20 years, add all that extra up and its a very large fraudulent claim. Overall, 20 years starting 2020 youd probably defraud 80-100k in that period. Last 4 years alone its gone up 200 pounds a month.
