A little bit about our beginnings

We originally started the business in 2001 as a Dating Agency with offices in Bangkok and North Wales (UK). However with the advent of 'social websites and chat rooms' the demand for the dating side reduced so we ceased this operation in 2007.

It had not gone unnoticed that we had achieved a 100% success rate in obtaining visas for our clients and we were getting more couples, who had met through other means, coming to us for advice. As a result we opened a new office in Soi Immigration Jomtien, this is 50 metres from the Chonburi Immigration offices and later the UK government opened a Consulate next door to us.

Other services were offered due to demand and the Thai team provide a lot of assistance for those foreigners already in Thailand

When the UKBA agency introduced compulsory English testing in November 2010 we were one of the first to be approved through our sister company English Test Centres to carry this out. Indeed most of the larger visa companies in Pattaya used our services as they trusted us. In April 2011 the UKBA cancelled all contracts and gave them to just a few UK colleges. At the moment therefore the test is in a state of limbo.

In May 2011 we opened a further office in Pattaya thereby saving clients from negotiating the 'roads' to Jomtien!

Because we have so much experience plus the knowledge of Tony (worked for UKBA for 40 years) we are getting many people coming to us who have been refused a visa and we are now getting them one.

 

Our Structure

We are somewhat different to most of out competitors and indeed most Thai companies. Lloyd the founder has set up the operation based on old fashioned business principals whereby honesty and the truth is foremost. The Team are expected to question any decision, to apologise (Kor Tor Krup) if we do or say something wrong,  refund if we make a mistake without hesitation and above all to say we do not have the answer but will find out. They have embraced this philosophy which is somewhat different to Thai ways, status also does not feature in our operation.

When we receive an enquiry for a visa whether it be from Thailand or another country we have a 'panel' (in Thailand) who look at the situation and then based upon the truth and known facts give the best advice they can. Some in our opinion will not be successful and we will explain this and perhaps how to overcome the problem legally, we will not take them on at this stage. Whatever happens however, this service is FREE and the client can just walk away.  

Finally a free share scheme open to all our Team is available so that several are now shareholders in the company they are working in and soon to be Directors. The obvious advantage is that everyone has the company and therefore the clients interests foremost particularly as we do very little advertising and rely on recommendations.

So that is a little about us, we also always welcome criticism (if constructive), it helps us to improve our service to YOU

As this is really a personal relationship may we introduce our Team

  Lets introduce our main team starting of course with the 'MD', the wife and...
Wanphen Jones known as Jip. She has dual British/Thai nationality and says she likes living in Wales. Not really sure why even after ten years.

When in Thailand she does a lot of visits to the British and other Embassies where she has some useful contacts

Thawion Muennak or Khun Aon. Have you ever seen such a happy looking accountant?

Well Khun Aon looks after all our money, in fact once she has got her hands on it, it is difficult to get it away from her for legitimate expenses of course.

She also know all about extending your stay in Thailand and does a lot of translations plus she deals with births passports and naturally relieves you of your money

Manitchaya Sriprasit or Khun Baitoey is one of our younger team members but no guys she has just got married to a really nice chap.

The only problem is that she is such a quick learner that we are all (especially at my age) finding it difficult to keep up with her. She ran our other office and the A1 until the UK government changed the rules, now she is part of our front line on visa advice

Tony Martin, looks rather serious but do not be mislead in spite of a career working for the UK Border Agency for 40 years during which time he held positions such as Chief Immigration Officer and fraud specialist.

He has a great sense of humour, he needs it working with us! He is our Senior Visa Adviser and does a lot more behind the scenes. One thing to watch out for (see our honesty policy) is do not bring in those dodgy documents he will spot them a mile off

Nuee Rattanakwan the matriarch of Jip's family and a director of the company.

She is based in Bangkok but does a lot of travelling between the offices. Nuee is the one that we call upon to sort out Thai problems because of her 'presence', it helps in Thailand to have a senior Lady - sorry Nuee

Kevin and Mod, they have been good friends for many years and joined us five years ago to look after the UK side of things, having been through all the hoops themselves. Mod has British citizenship and they know the ropes. However perhaps the most important thing is that for Thai ladies newly arrived in UK they have a friendly person in Mod to speak to, who will point them in the right direction and advise against some do's and don'ts of a personal nature
 

Khun Jatuporn but we prefer to call her Khun Boo. Now this young (yes we are lucky) Lady is well travelled in UK and Europe so a terrific asset to the company.

Having learnt the ropes again very quickly she is also one of our front line advisers on visas and looks after the office

That only leaves me from the original main team, Lloyd. Had hoped I could find a better photograph but I would only be lying as the girls in Thailand now call me 'papa', used to be 'handsome man', Oh Well.

With such a great team I have now been able at last to retire back to Wales where I act as a last resort for those problems that may crop up in between enjoying my bike!

  Our other team members (part time) are all based in Bangkok but it is the above members who will be dealing with so you can now put a face to that name
