What health insurance options are available for expats on DTV in Thailand?
Jeff *******
@Klaus **********
 No. I won't be "that guy". Like I said, everyone's situation is different. And if someone can't afford to return to their home country, they shouldn't be here n the first place.

 Depends on everyone's individual situation. Most Thai insurance is poor value. It depends on what type of insurance you can get in your home country.

Should we allow anonymous posts in Facebook groups?
Jeff *******
I manage several FB groups and my experience is that people posting anonymously are looking for approval to do something they know is against the law, the rules, or ethics.

On the visa pages the anonymous comments often tend to be rude and obnoxious.

Your third option violates FB's terms. Tagging the poster removes their anonymity

Why are DTV holders struggling to maintain Thai bank accounts?
Jeff *******
"legal long-stay residents"

You're not. If you're on a DTV, you're a tourist!

Get the right visa for your situation.

What should I do when changing my passport after being granted a DTV visa in Thailand?
Jeff *******
@Greg *******
 Exactly. A few years ago I had to have a 30 day visa exempt stamp transferred to my new passport. If the DTV is digital, I guess there s nothing to transfer. Odd that they require you to physically carry the old passport. When they swipe the new one all of the old info is there.

Can I enter Thailand on a tourist visa while waiting for my DTV visa approval?
Jeff *******
@Ray ****
 While they are likely to deny the DTV if you are currently in Thailand, you can certainly have and enter with 2 visas. I never canceled my original visa and have entered Thailand 3 times on my new DTV. It always takes an extra couple of minutes at Immigration, but isn't a problem.

What was the experience of entering Bangkok immigration like for a British passport holder on a DTV?
Jeff *******
@James *******
 That's the endless, unanswerable question. And really has nothing to do with this thread. Fortunately, prior TM30'sare not required to enter the country.
