      My fiance and I very much appreciate all of *** from the administration down to the local Bangkok staff. Everyone did an EXCELLENT job with everything regarding the tour. Everyone with *** has been a big help to us. I've hired an immigration attorney to help us with the fiance visa.AFA is IMBRA compliant. Some of the complaints I've seen on here are actually because *** is compliant with federal law. Potential customers should research this and write their congresspeople if they're not happy. This is not AFA's fault.AFA is the best platform hands down to find the love of your life in the countries in which they operate. They have plenty of tools to do just that.I used AFA's tools to extensively research ladies with their profiles and videos. When I found ladies that I wanted to talk with, I wrote them letters. *** plays down the importance of the letters between men and ladies, but that is specifically what had my fiance convinced that she wanted to be with me prior to coming to the social. She didn't even want to talk with any other men. Because of the letters, I had 5 ladies show up at the first social-just to see me! I had 2 ladies scheduled for the second social and 2 ladies scheduled for dates after the socials. The letters are an excellent tool to screen ladies prior to going on a tour.The translators from *** ******* were touched by our letters to each other. Without their hard work, my fiance and I might not be together. I want to highlight them because I don't believe that they get enough credit. They are key to ***. Their people skills and translation skills are enormously important. I hope that *** will continue to offer the letters. The letters will help my fiance and I in the process of getting her fiance ***** which documents our communication.*** has an excellent staff in each of the countries in which they operate. They were enormously important to my fiance and me. They took great care of us, gave us invaluable advice and are wonderful people.

      Thank you so much for sharing your actual experience with us. All too often people will share the negative but not so much the positive, especially on this platform. It was interesting what you had to say about the correspondence. Many men struggle with that, (those that actually go and meet virtually always do well) but often that is because they do not use it in the way we advocate on the site. You did and it appears to have worked very well for the two of you! Congratulations on having the courage to go and meet her, we wish you all the best!!!
