I don't have many years behind me in Thailand like many here.
Been here since 2001 and there criteria for new visa's next year is absolutely beyond me.
They are expecting us to show 65,000bht coming from pension from your Country origin!!!
I actually do not know anyone receiving that much pension, in fact, I hardly netted that when working in UK.
Anyhow, hope all the farangs leave, like myself and leave's Thailand completely on its arse.
Good riddance to Thailand and I know for sure I won't even return for a short holiday in future.
Vietnam, Da Nang here I come - Marry a Vietnamese if you like and get 5 year visa.
They do actually want us there.
All the best Thailand - please sink.

The extremely worrying thing I see for Brits is: I don't know any Brit getting this amount pension for a MONTH ... The average state pension in the UK is £165 per week
Infact, bet there's not many other Countries where retiree's that amount!!
Maybe the Thai's don't want farangs there anymore - best of luck to them without tourism

On the face of it, this looks EXTREMELY worrying for British retirees here. The irresponsible action of the British embassy in not confirming a retiree's income flow could be the death knell for many Brits here. Also, as far as I understand it, the British Government will not send pensions into a Thai bank account (only into a British one), and not every British bank will automatically forward a pension to a bank account in Thailand every month. Maybe I am wrong.
Perhaps it is not as bad as I fear. What do other members think?
