. I don't really know for sure, but I have seen that you can pay an agent for a fast track if you don't want to take the risk of not being allowed entry and getting a refusal against your name
I arrived on April 30th on a 60 day exemption and extended by 30 days to July 28th. I then went to Vietnam for 5 days and when I returned to Thailand I was questioned at immigration. Luckily, a month previously already booked my flight to the UK. A second and more senior person was called to discuss my entry into Thailand and thankfully he allowed me to enter. I was definitely sweating 😓 for a while
I have been in Bang Bo for 2.5 months now. I have rented a lovely condo for 6 months and the complex has a free swimming pool, a free gym and a free sauna. All for 4,800 a month. Plus electricity and water. Total last month including rent was 6,250 Baht.
There is a river a 10 minute walk from my condo where fishing is free, I love fishing .
My fishing rod and tackle bought at a local store for less than €25 .
There are 5 or 6 restaurants within 10 minutes walk of my condo and I can buy a lovely Thai meal for less than £2 at all of them.
I don't drink alcohol. I don't smoke and I eat mostly in my condo on salads . Because I like salad in hot weather.
I don't do bar girls either
Last month and the month before including rent and food I spent £415 in May and £425 in June ( <€500 )
Half way through July now and I will again be spending less than €500
