Manila will contact you. I just did my change of address. I don't remember how long it took them, but it wasn't that long, maybe a week.

My ex landlord did the same thing. Fortunately my wife got her to give me signed photocopies of the her ID and house book. Then I took the photocopies and a copy of the lease to immigration and did it myself.

Take the night train from Don Mueang to Laos. Cheapest and easiest but it's like 11 hours each way. It might be too late to book the sleeper train, but that's the best way.

I don't see why you would do that? Besides if you're using your money, you'd be paying about $ too much.

Visa on Arrival is 30 days. I was there last week.

@Jesper ******

that's a good question. The bank lady kept saying I have a tourist visa but I have a retirement visa, which I did with an agent. I think it's all the people who used an agent while on a visa exemption, but i'm not sure.

@Jay ******

yeah maybe or there's been two different things going on. One with the phones and the other with the visas. I did the phone a month ago, then they did this thing with the visa next.

@Jay ******

they told me that the home office has to approve it. That's why they froze it.

They are freezing accounts until they are approved by main office. If you need cash immediately, I recommend you make a withdrawal before going in. Mine is frozen for two weeks. Fortunately, I'm going to Laos and took out money for my trip. One guy this morning was going to Dubai and they wanted to freeze his account. His only option was to close his account. He wasn't happy.

Leave and come back?
