Seen those sort of comments on other Facebook groups, though to be honest everyone who has answered me on here has been really helpful. Definitely thinking of going the agent route, though like you say I need to make sure they are reputable. Thank you

Don’t have a house in the UK. Pay £500 a month for a room in a shared house, though all bills are included. But I’ve been looking at condos in Hua Hin for around £170/£180 a month and I reckon I could manage on £920 (40,000 baht) a month.

That’s all you get in the UK, and if you were born before 1951 you only get about £700 a month. Hopefully I can work something out. Thank you

Was going to keep my bank account as I can use it with no fees and opening a Thai bank account seems a hassle. Good advice about using family as an address, thank you

Hi, thanks for the visa info. My pension only comes to about B40,000 a month, so would have to use an agent. It’s only me, so would only need a one bed studio or similar. Quite happy to cook for myself and prefer eating where locals eat rather than at fancy restaurants. Will do more research into using a visa agent. Thank you for the advice
