Can someone get a refund for a soft power course fee after receiving a DTV visa?

@Brian ********
 You really believe every foreigner in Thailand behaves with the utmost of honesty and integrity? Even though many are paying bribes to immigration officers, police officers etc. Are you serious? Come on! Are you new in Thailand?

 No idea what that has to do with cancelling a course, but I'm sure you've got it covered!

 As I said, I'm a realist living in the real world. Why don't you try it, instead of judging people?

 The business has the right to refuse a refund or charge an admin fee. How's that a problem? 😂

 We live in a "I'm all right Jack" world. People do what's best for them. Pretty sure the business will retain an "admin fee", so they're making money for nothing. If they don't have such a fee, it's their own stupid fault! 👍👍

 Absolutely agree! The number of expats paying bribes to government officials is certainly proof of that! 😂😂😂

 So you're trying to tell me that the
*****
+ baht which people pay for a 1900 baht extension is not corrupt? Have you really got your head buried that far into the sand? 😂😂

 OMG! Now we're looking into morals!! They will tolerate it because the guy stays in Thailand spending money - that's the whole point of the DTV!! Jesus, when did expats get so moralistic over paying corruption to government officials? 😂😂

 Yeah it's so funny. Every day expats are paying hundreds of thousands of baht in bribes to secure dodgy visa extensions through visa agents, and yet here are people going into meltdown because someone wants to cancel a course and get a refund! Do you realise how stupid this is? 😂😂😂
