What should I do if my condo failed to notify immigration and I have to pay a fine for my visa extension in Thailand?

Brian *********

Jomtien was 1600b when it happened to me, immigration phoned the condo owner and told him to pay the fine.

Initially I had to pay it as they wouldn't issue an extension until the fine was paid but I was reimbursed the next day.
