Contact me when you're in Pattaya Joe. I'll send you 2 agents in Pattaya who should be able to sort it for you without holding your passport more than 2 days

@London ****

Try different agent Joe. That's far too long it's usually only a couple of days. If you want. the I'll pm you with 2 agents. Are you in Pattaya now

Yes, it's so frustrating Joe, I had exactly the same refusals as you've mentioned.

The two agents I went to were about the same prices.

b for 15months

4000b for bank account

Next year b for visa extension.

Asked if they would be problems at Immigration, both said no problem at all

Apparently they also do reporting for you at Immigration every 90 days rather than lining up for hours on end at times.

I know lads on here say it's easy to do but all my friends in Pattaya have gone down the Agency route. They only held the passport for a couple of days

Problem is trying to open up a Thai Bank Account in Thailand. Tried 7 different banks, unable to so so

Agent said can open for me at cost of 4000b (Pattaya)

ffs Cheap Charlie

Thanks for your informative post

Check with your airline, for definite requirements

Yes, those are the forms required for departure and entry into the UK at present.

Some airlines require a PCR test rather than a antigen test.

I agree, stressful, particularly the last few days of your trip.

Had exactly the same dilemmas 2 weeks ago

Used Random a few times now, no. problems. Professional company
