no

alot of cheaper(600-1k) hotels will do long term rated FYI. however they rarely say so on their website.

on the other hand, smaller serviced apartments that say min contract 6+ months may rent for 1 month to fill vacancies. I just rented for a month at a place with 12mo min listed online lol. all you need to do is ask

You do understand that if theres no sense of community here (which posters like Peeps contribute to), no ones going to bother coming in here for the sake of being your assistant researcher and answering the questions to all the self-entitled ****s in here.

Just learn to use the ignore function and stop with the nagging.
This. Obviously.

We're finally rid of that idiotic troll and now we have to suffer pages and pages of nagging...mostly about PE. Tilt.

..Stu you idiotic knob, you're exactly like those trolls 6 weeks ago or so that were going on about how PE must be bad at poker living on this budget ect ect like they just pulled off some epic pwnage.

I started following this thread when PE was still in the UK and he was pretty open about playing poker recreationally, being on a strict budget, and being close to his parents

You just make yourself look like a massive douche, thinking you're outing him big time and being so clever when in fact PE was pretty open about everying from the start and not caring what people like you think.

yeah you can, but its best to go on Expedia and print of a fake taxi going out from bkk to somewhere like Singapore, Expedia actually let you print off the ticket before paying for it (its who i use). Or you could actually buy a ticket from bkk to anywere on airasia tthere like $50<

You usually need a return ticket to get a 2 month tourist Visa. I was asked to show proof of it when applying for mine at the Thai consulate in Brisbane.

Luckily it's easy enough to book an Air Asia flight somewhere from Bangkok, Phuket, Surat etc for around $40.

I came here with a one way ticket from Canada. No questions at the Thai embassy when getting my visa or at the airport when I got here.

If you enter Thailand on a visa-exempt basis (you get your visa upon arrival), then you have to have proof of onward travel or else your airline won't give you a boarding pass because Thai immigration/customs won't let you through when you get there.

You should get a double or triple entry tourist visa from a Thai consulate in your home country. I don't know what it's like in Australia, but in the States I had to contact 6 different embassies/consulates in different states until I finally found one (Portland Consulate) who would issue me a double entry tourist visa without proof of onward travel. Email or call every consulate in Australia and see what they say about that. Officially it's a requirement to get the tourist visa beforehand, but some offices don't actually enforce it, like Portland. If you can't find one that will do it for you, get a cheap flight with Air Asia to show them. They're actually not THAT cheap, like $75 for a one way onward flight to Malaysia when I checked last month.

Just make sure that you try and get your visa beforehand because if you don't know how long you're staying, then that 30 days will go by pretty quick and you'll have to leave the country to renew your visa. If you get a double entry tourist visa before you come, each entry is 60 days and you can extend each entry for an additional 30 days, giving you effectively 6 months before you would need to make a visa run. Each entry was $40 in the States.

That's not true. Thai immigration could not care less if you have an onward ticket or not when you arrive. Some airlines may decline to board you without an onward ticket, but that's airline dependent. Certainly if you're arrive with someone like Air Asia they couldn't give a crap whether or not you have an onward ticket, since even if they have to fly you back it's only costing them about $30.

This bit is incorrect as well. A double entry tourist visa only gives you 3 months before you need to make a visa run. You do the run, then re-enter on the same visa, and get another 3 months, after which you need a new visa.

Okay, my mistake. Officially, it is Thai immigration policy that visitors on visa exempt entry will be refused entry unless they have proof of onward travel. Apparently it's not enforced when you get there. It was the same situation when I flew to Honduras from the States last year. Delta refused to give me a boarding pass at the airport without a return ticket because they said Honduras would refuse my entry at the airport in Tegucigulpa. So I bought a $900 refundable return ticket, then got there and they didn't even ask when I went through immigration....

Point is, any major international carrier will probably say something at the airport if you don't have a visa already. What I should have said was that the airline's reasoning for refusing to give boarding passes comes from the fact that it is a Thai policy, which apparently is never enforced.
