Visa fees rip off
BIG RIP OFF IF YOU WANT TO GO TO THAILAND.
Pantours Travel Agency Ltd has been appointed by the Thai Embassy in Rome as the sole agency for visa applications from Cyprus. Pantours have now admitted they are adding a processing/handling fee to each visa application This fee ranges from 265 EUROS to over 300 EUROS depending on visa type.
The proper price listed by the Embassy in Rome for a Tourist visa is 35 EUROS. They want to charge 300 EUROS! You send application to Pantours, they pass it on to Rome.
So if you don't pay, you don't get a visa!!!!!!
Anyone had a similar experience? Just want to get this information out there. Scandalous.
