Hi John Chesney very sorry to hear about your troubles. unfortunately the new crackdown on people spending a lot of time here in Tourist visas has meant that the only way to really stay here long term is to apply for a non O visa if you meet the requirements. if that is not an option then there is always the Elite visa option for 500k. The other option for you right now would be to try and come back into Thailand through a land border with you current visa.... best of luck!

Sorry to hear your bad experience. Unfortunately there has been a massive crack down on people visiting here on a regular basis, specifically those who are on Tourist visas, ED visas, and visa exemptions...

Unfortunately there is not an official set limit, but rather down to what the immigration officer thinks.

Wow, what an unprofessional nasty piece of work.

@Andrew *******

And the reason for the ED visa denial?

@Amornrat *********

I agree.

Most of the ED visa denials i have heard about recently have been due to the schools not providing the correct paperwork, or the applicant not showing adequate funds.

Major communication breakdown... :/

@Tod ********

thanks for pointing that out.

I doubt any of the consulates will accept your application if you're applying for beginner and intermediate. They will only accept level one . This has been the case for over a month now.

@Bill ******

Just one other thing that i noticed, is that i was not able to copy and paste the passord to log in, i had to manually type in the password to be able to log into the system.
