I am doing my Marriage extension at the moment and you are correct , Jomtien require 2 months seasoning of 400,000 Baht.

What should my friend do about her rental situation in Thailand as she needs to return to England urgently?

Malcolm *******

Just leave with all your stuff , then e mail them telling them you have left because of the noise and disruption . You will lose the 3 months money you paid up front .

Nothing else will happen , they are just trying to scare you into paying up the rest of your years contract .
