I get it. Things change.

At least you’re among us lucky ones who have a Thai bank account. That’s something to be grateful for.

What’s a day’s worth of interest on that amount?

Example: It’s less than 150฿ if you’re moving equivalent of 1MB and you earn 5% interest per year.

How busy is your life that you can’t wait “less than 24 hours” for a transfer?

PayPal always gives the ‘money in minutes’ option for a small fee but I’m not sitting on a dealer’s sofa waiting to score. (Nor am I implying you are.)

Why is seemingly everyone hooked on INSTANT? Especially in a country that demands patience?

I’m sure you’ve got your reasons.

immigration is swamped after a holiday especially a 4-day weekend.

Too many people fail to plan. Too many think it has to be done on the last day or the one before.

There’s basically a bunch of uninformed and entitled people trying to do something without having a clue of how to do it.

No mention for tourism in Chiang Mai Division 5 and next appointment for extension based on volunteering is August 29th at 2:30pm. I didn’t look at other categories. Was only looking to see if there were slots available.

Should you go forward in Malaysia, if it’s any help, you don’t have to stay in KL.

Anywhere in the country is fine.

As mentioned, don’t forget to cancel your ED before leaving.

Your school should provide a letter dated less than one week from your ticket out.

Head to immigration office. Cancel visa. It’s free.

You’re good to go.
