Okay thanks for that info. I’ve been inquiring with so many agencies I foolishly overlooked this. My bad.

Here is the reply your agency sent to me a few days ago:
“To use our service you must at least have a bank account.
We suggest obtaining one on your own, or coming to Bangkok as we can assist you here.
If you had a bank account already then we could fully service you without you having to come to Bangkok.”
I understood this to mean you could not help me if I came to Pattaya.

Never go anywhere without TP. Look right first, then left, before crossing the street. Don’t raise your voice at anybody in Thailand. Good luck.

That would be my guess. Bummer for me because 30,000 is over 10,000 lower than any other agency I’ve found.

They just replied to my inquiry:
ME - I live in Laem Mae Phim. Can you still obtain a non O Retirement visa with multiple entry for me?
THEM - No, we are In Pattaya.
ME - I can come to Pattaya to visit your office and do business. But does my address have to be in Pattaya?
THEM - Yes if you apply here.

I sent them an inquiry. I don’t live in Pattaya and that was a showstopper for one other agency. If J & E can do it all for under 30,000 they will definitely have my business.
