I transferred funds and Bangkok Bank didn’t put it in my account until the day after the end of the month. Took them three days.

The Khon Kaen Immigration Officer refused it! Even though there were eleven perfect months and one a day late!

One bites one’s tongue and has plan B!

This officer was subsequently “transferred” away for 12 months!

She’s now back but won’t acknowledge me in any shape or form🤣!

Make sure you have all your paperwork immaculate!

I’m in Khon Kaen and every time I visit the Bangkok Bank whichever staff I see tries to sell me insurance 😉😁!

I just politely fob them off as I ride a motorcycle and need health insurance. Their health insurance doesn’t cover riding motorcycles!

I’ve found Thais to be quite dedicated to the concept of “up selling”😉!

We travel constantly within Thailand, staying at hotels, little resorts and even home stays.

They do the TM30 stuff and I’ve never had any Immigration issues about it.

I always do the 90 Day online - no problems!

At the annual extension, it’s not even mentioned.

Khon Kaen Immigration Office.

I just got back from Chiang Mai yesterday and off to Hua Hin on Monday.

Just don’t cross any border without the due process in place first 😉!

Stand tall👍

@Alex ******

freshen up❤️

@Alex ******

there is always something nice and worthwhile to see in any place, especially the people.

I’ve been to Vientiane a few times. I like it, the people are lovely.

My mum told me, as a kid, to look for the good in people.

I suggest an open mind?

Phuket taxis are the worse scam in Thailand. Totally aimed at tourists!

Those taxi drivers have a mafia approach to it!

What makes them better than any other taxi driver in Thailand! Just a bunch of scumbags who have paid off the regulating Department!

@Ryan *******

hostels are a thief’s playground!

@Kirsten ********

be careful saying that! There are so many qualifications that you shouldn’t say it!

People - if you are concerned get proper taxation advice!

@Mathew ******

, well good! Walk in and walk out!
