went to CW last week to get 60day Covid extension. I had been on a cancelled work permit with a Non-Imm visa and this was my 4th extension. First 2 had been fairly easy via the C queue apart from hassle of re-queuing at each point in the process. So 3rd time I did through an agent which was fine, except for some reason they did via Korat Immigration (I assume they had a "special" IO there). This extension was about to expire on 10th July so decided I would do myself again as likely my last time, also passport has no clear pages for a new visa. But CW suddenly decided they didn't want to extend:
1. Why did you extend in Korat, go back there (lock down hadn't yet started). I think they knew I had used an agent (how?)
2. Where is my 90 day report receipt (I had done online they refused to check, although on a prior extension an IO had done exactly that)
3. Where is TM30 (had never been asked for this before) as I am staying in well known hotel on Sukhumvit Road for 6 months.
So dejected and rejected, back to expensive Trendy agent again! She just smiled when I asked why did she do extension in Korat, just gave me a discount instead to shut me up:)
Supposedly will get my passport this week as need to renew as require a page for a planned retirement visa.
