thanks I downloaded it earlier today. I also tried textnow, but it gives you a US number, so Fongo is better for me. Textme also probably works, so I've got them both. I also heard you have to be in Canada to actually download. Don't really need texting since I use WhatsApp and Line, plus have my Thai SIM. Communications so simple these days....love it.
45 days before your visa expires or 45 days after you arrive? I'm arriving

on TR, staying in BKK. Will be going to CM for 3 days mid Feb. The BKk imm office is very inconvenient for me, basically I waste a day, so thinking I could extend in CM?
yes but anyone who wants to overstay just has to buy a return ticket (cost is not much more than one way), then they don't use it. A holder of a one way ticket likely indicates someone of higher means who chooses flexibility over saving money. For me, 1 way = 1000, return = 1200
I wonder why they bother? Do they actually get a lot ppl who arrive in Thailand but then run out of money?? And what does 20k THB prove? Same as a return ticket - it proves nothing since there is no guarantee you'll actually board your flight.
