Why is it most are afraid of using an agent? I hear they are thieves, and the expat opts to doing everything themselves instead. Hmmm. They have a bad reputation

@Andrew *******

$600usd is alot to hold your hand putting money in a bank of thai. I mean for me its just a simple bank transfer. The rest is on me to go find a place and get the documents together. Im not helpless. If it was more like $300 then ide be onboard.
