    Since, officially, immigration offices are supposed to issue residence certificates (and most do) it is a bit difficult to insist that your embassy provide them because of a few rogue offices. That said, regardless of whether immigration offers them, it is hard to understand why, for instance, the British embassy that used to provide them discontinued that service (except that they have, generally, terminated most of their support for British nationals in Thailand, and are being consistent).

    ok...

    My School is responsible/ The Co ordinator will for sure cancel work permit /extension of stay.

     

    But Its fine if they do this right by themselves?

     

    I don't have to be there with them to go to the labor office/immigration?

     

    If this is true....I can fly out of thailand and my co ordinator can cancel everything the next day

    correction: your school is NOT responsible for cancel your work permit. It is your duty. Some schools or other work place do that just for boing nice. So you can kindly ask them to do that for you. If they dont do that it will make some problems with your next work. 

    cancelling work permit at labor office is a 10min thing.

     

    normally your last day in thailand is the date written on the termination letter. im not sure if its still possible to ask IO to get 7 days and pay 1900 for that or not. If not you aill have 24 hours to leave the country. 24+1 is 500 baht per day.

  3. im not sure what you mean by 90 days stamping work permit. there is no such thing (dont know if its a must for some nationals). But this is the procedure for bangkok:

    -get your non-b visa 

    -get your work permit from labor office

    -extend your non-b for a year at immigration

     

    for the next year if same work:

    -extend your work permit at labor office for the next year

    -extend your visa for another year

    Just a few answers:

    KTM bike, authorized KTM service center.

    I did go back to the problematic place. With a red oil pressure waring lamp on. They told me they don't see any problem, I should come back if I have a problem.

    No, I didn't drop it while drunk. I might ride after one or two beers, but definitely not drunk. And the cover is visibly scratched like it was pulled or pushed over a street. A simple drop doesn't leave scratches like that. And I also never work up one morning and thought: Where are all those scratches on my body from. ???? 

    I see..

    Well sadly it seems theres no way to prove. Unless... do you think you can ask to see cctv cams in the shop? Im pretty sure they have cctv every where. Probably they will refuse to show without any court order but worth to try to ask.

     

    Again.. hope you can find a solution.  Sorry 

  5. my experience and also things i heard from other people about this kinda story is actually different.

    if you took it to service at an authorized service center accidents or likewise things are really rare. especially for bikes. you also mentioned about a changed part. most authorized services give you the changed part. do you have it? btw sorry about my english but by authorized service do you mean like.. for example you have honda did you go to HONDA? the things other service explained to you make me believe you didnt take it to HONDA. but like another big service place? the errors you are mentioning are serious and yes we know thailand but easy to prove that they made a mistake. the problem is time here. how long is it the light warning started since your service? because the other service told you the valve setting is not correct which you should understand it not too long. and the bike should warn you no too long too. you should not take it to other service but to the same service because now the first service will not accept any paper work from them. 

     

    now i know its funny to you but.. have some questions.. are you sure you didnt dropped the bike when you are drunk? or anything like that? because the things you describe can be only in fast driving accidents. not small hits or drops when changing oil.. i dont think they take the bike for a test ride like cars.

     

    i hope you can solve the problem

     

  6. hi

    He's right to have doubts about doing it online. I submitted mine online 8 days ago, and it's still pending. The online system is increasingly unreliable. Apparently staff simply disregard submissions. I guess they would rather have a hall full of people than simply go through the online system and click a button.

    You're talking about "appointments"? Right?

     

    They can only be booked up to 30 days out.

     

    For some activity there are no open slots on any given day. Pick a day/date 30 days out, wake up up at 00:01 and snag a slot.

     

    I do not believe you can book an appointment for a category/activity other than the one you hope to accomplish.

     

    FWIW, there are tons of 90-Day Slots available. I booked one two days out, and full availability. They do have a lot of slots for this. And maybe folks don't know you can book an appointment for the 90-Day report?

     

    Just get to CW early on Friday and get one of the first few tickets. I have no idea what that time might be? 06:00? 06:30?

     

     

     

     

    Yep thats the plan. Thanks

  9. im planning to go to my non-b visa extension at changwattana this friday. Queue for my section is full at least 2-3 months.

     

    so do you think i can get 90 days report queue and just try to do my visa extension?

    im asking because i remember they just asked me to sign my name from the list.. didnt check anything. and did my visa extension. If its still like that im planning to get a queue from 90 days. Or get queue from extension non-o thai wife?

     

    PS: do you think the counter number will be different and my name will not be on the list where i did last year (counter) but it seems to me all online appointments are going to the same counter

     

    i got queue from thai wife extension. counter L it says No: 29 / 32   i think last year it was N so.. counters are different maybe?

     

    thanks

    If it was offered as a gift there's no scam here at all

    yes i agree with you and told that to my friend. Only scam part is the person is not the person she introduced her self. For example she said that her occupation is a nurse and need money to get back to thailand (again she is not a thai national but living in thailand) so my friend offered her the plane ticket. At first she didnt accept and my friend insisted then she accepted. So the scam part is only about her job and i dont think its a crime to.. tell a lie about your job.

    3,500 kroner is a relatively small amount – even that it might be a relative big amount for some individuals – you should consider it as a lesson learned-loss and move on; and yes, I'm Danish.

     

    You have voluntary transferred the amount to a foreign national, so it's not something the Danish police can do much about. You might be able to report it, and that might be it. You'll gain nothing.

     

    You need to contact Thai police to get something done. However, someone using a fake so-me profile is not unusual and can be hard to investigate. You being a foreigner might not help the police's interest in starling an investigation. And what will you gain? Even if they might find the person – or persons – behind the fake profile, the money might well be gone already long ago, so you won't get them back.

     

    So, save yourself from a lot of trouble and worrying: Write off the loss and move on...:thumbsup:

     

    And by the way: We are many, also Danes, who have "lost" money, we voluntary gave to Thai ladies – even when they didn't use a fake profile and was, who they appeared to be – and we are many, also Danes, who learned a lesson, moved on and often had better luck next time...????

     

    thanks for your post.

    my friend asked danish police and they told him to make a complain. tho i dont think anything will come up. I think they told him that jsut because they had to because of their work.
