And, at least at Chaeng Wattana in Bangkok, they expect these money to stay on account until day of collecting extension stamp (on collection day they request to show updated passbook and provide copies of name page and last transaction page). So effectively money are blocked for ca. 3 months.
And be cautious, because many taxi drivers are not aware, that some features of Immigration Division are moved there and insist to go to Chaeng Wattana. Be there before 11am or after 1pm to avoid the break between 12pm and 1pm. Yesterday I waited only 20 minutes, goes quite smoothly. Good luck!
Do you guys say that my old passport was cancelled from international databases since the moment of creation of new one, not since the moment of collection by me? But anyhow, I will get letter from the embassy with the date of collection of new passport. The question is how long I can wait before going to IO?
