Safe travels

Up untill a few years ago, Thailand had many agents who would take your passport and promise to run it thru the Border. What they usually did was to take it to a back room and affix a phony stamp.4
Consider yourself lucky since you knew it was illegal before you did it. Like Udon Thani you will get no sympathy from me when you travel here and get screwed after you willingly support corruption. If a foreigner was stupid enough to do this in your native country what do you think would have & should have happened to them?

Sorry, no sympathy from me, you are lucky you are not in the BKK Hilton right now sharing a 20' cell with 18 other idiots.

90 day work permit? Don't you mean Non imm b, which means that you DON'T hold a work permit and are only allowed to LOOK for work. Therefore working illegally.

Perhaps the Thai authorities need to tighten up on these so called companies that offer this kind of service, and this will result in the tourist going to the border to get visa themselves. It is about time that the Thai authorities started to clamp down on the agencies that offer this kind of illegal service. The tourist is often told that it is legal for the agencies to get visa's.10
