These properties were not designed for AC to be installed. You are chasing your tail. It will be expensive to redesign the roof to insulate. It will be expensive to run an AC unit without adequate insulation. Buy an extra fan. You will be throwing good money after bad.

British man arrested for begging to buy drugs in Koh Pha Ngan
borderhopper2005 replied to webfact's topic in Koh Samui News
100% agree. Truly disgusting SOB. Now he can get a free accommodation(at the expense of Thai police) and (hopefully) free return flight. Looks like more than he initially expected. -

Quita a few people showed sympathy to the foreigner in this article. But the beg packer for drug is getting a cold shoulder LOL. -
Applying in UK for Non-O
Liquorice replied to QballQ's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
All recently changed. The multi entry Non Imm O visa from Savannahket now requires 400K THB in a Thai bank account for 2 months for the application. The single entry Non Imm O is still available without any proof of finances. You can only apply for a 60-day extension in Country to visit Thai spouse - no financials. The wife must attend with you. -

George Anderssen interview about the The Thaiger - ASEAN NOW merger
Puccini replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
As I cannot read Thai, thanks to AseanNow's Thailand News section I get to read a lot of news about Thailand which otherwise I would not see. Yes, it is mostly AI-generated adaptations from Thai language sources and and other English language publications may have most of it too, but here I have it all in one place without having to load other news websites. No complaints from me. -
George Anderssen interview about the The Thaiger - ASEAN NOW merger
Patong2021 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
That is not the principal reason. The media environment has changed. Chat rooms and webforums were very popular back in the 1990's and even into the early 2000's they hung on, and then chatrooms died. Many years ago there was Bangkok Chat. It was spun off from ThaiVisa. Then along came apps like Tinder, Plenty of Fish, Rome, Cupid, Match, Badoo Zoosk and many others. And then Line and WhatsApp appeared. These all put the pressure and eventually killed online chatrooms. And now even these websites are facing competitive pressures as newer more targeted websites like Only Fans have started up. Web forums outside of specialty areas are a dying activity. -

You won't lose anything. Immigration will correct the stamp, it happens all the time. Just get that TM30 sorted out before you visit the Immigration office. Even those of us that reside here permanently have to file a TM30. Immigration track the residences of all foreigners. -

No, please, tell us more. -
I didn't shop around. I bought health insurance for LTR visa from AXA, the only company I called. The premium depends on the insurer's age and the deductible. In the picture below , Plan 1 with 2M maximum benefit is good enough for LTR visas. I needed at least 10 months left on the policy at the time of visa approval, so I started the application without health insurance, and bought the policy when BOI asked for it.

Go down to the airport and look for Brits checking in to a flight heading for the UK.

As much as I dislike Songkran, leaving the country to avoid it is a bit extreme. I just stay at home as I do most of the year. I only need to go shopping, and during the event, late at night, plenty of shops are open for my basic grocery needs. I didn't see a single water gun or bucket of water this year. The only change in my routine this year was not shopping at Big C Extra.

Wrong visa stamp on arrival
Sheryl replied to miaclarkson03's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Then they may have filed a TM30. Only way to find out is to ask them. If they did not, ask them to do so. And print out screenshot. -

miaclarkson03 replied to miaclarkson03's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Yes that was our original plan👍 which is why i want the 60 day stamp on my passport rather than having to extend it by 30 now as then i will lose 30 days by having to do a border run -
Soi Kophai, Pattaya, there's a small Vespa shop (local boys), always lots of Vespas out front, repairs etc. Have a talk with them, these guys generally know more about the bikes than the dealers, they know how to get around challenges.
