  1. For a start, we are not guests here, not retirees anyway, we are treated the way a criminal in your own country is, reporting every 90 days, just like a criminal on parole and before you tell me if I don't like it to go home, when I moved here there was no compulsary 90 day reporting, just a nice pleasant drive to the border for a stamp in your passport every 90 days.
  2. Is there anyway to get the wording in the AN/TV Newsletter just a little bit bigger? Thanks.
  3. There is an even bigger criminal walking the streets of Thailand. This one stole the country in an illegal coup and kept the Premiership for nine years against the wishes of the majority of the Thai people backed up by soldiers, guns and tanks. He makes Thaksin look like a choirboy.
  4. He should never have been there in the first place.
  5. What a dreadful singer, Makes Peltin Elton sound like Elvis.
  6. I thought that with people always stuffing things around the laptop case which is a soft case, there could have been problems.
  7. What about the 12 kg on your carry on which is allowed on KLM? Surely that would need wheels even for a fit 6ft 76kg guy like me.
  8. I don't think anyone with any sense would put a laptop in the overhead locker even if it's in a case. I would always want my laptop in my case except when I was using it.
  9. I always thought that the top lockers were for carry on cases, not for all the other delicate things like bags of doughnuts etc. On my last flight there was no room for my case so one of the cabin crew took my case away and I had to go looking for it when the plane landed.
  10. I just followed behind an ambulance with flashing lights navigating three new speedbumps on a road on the outskirts of my village. it must have been held up a few mins between the first and last speed bumps. Surely that's eventually going to cost lives.
  11. That is true, but what if he did not pay it? I would not have.
  12. But does it say what country you are going to?
  13. These websites contradict each other you do not know who or what to believe. The DWP says, and it is there in black and white, and I am not going to look it up again, that they cannot take any debt owed to them from the UK state pension. Then another person shows a link (not sure where its from) saying that they can deduct any debt owed from the UK state pension.
  14. I also moved to Thailand in 2005 and never knew about the frozen annual OAP increases. It is not a thing you think about, if you read or heard about it while still living in the UK you would not believe it despite knowing what liars and hypocrites UK governments are.
  15. Get what facts right? I agree with you, but I would be trying to find a way around paying so much tax, It's ridiculous.
  16. I don't believe that Trans, I think there are things you have not been told. No one can take 1000 Quid from your state pension, as myself and others have said.
  17. So is mine. If you have been in the same job all your working life, even working for different companies, you could easily end up with about 12000 GBP a year state pension.
  18. No one can take any money of your state pension. See the DWP website.
  19. I think there is a lot more to this than what's been said.
  20. Even with a stinking rich multimillionaire "Sir" as a First Minister?? Dream on. He will be too busy looking after his own.
  21. Yes two weeks out of the full year if you are lucky.
  22. If he moved back to the UK he would soon lose out by having to pay extortionate power bills. Or he could stop eating or even end up being one of the thousands of old folk who die from cold related illnesses every winter.
  23. If they are living solely on a UK pension ask them what would have happened if they refused to pay any money back. They cannot take any money from their state pension.
  24. No one has been prosecuted yet for living abroad and "fraudulently" claiming the annual OAP increases.
  25. "Surely finding a Philippine address can't be that difficult." It would need to be a real one for the DWP to send the Proof of Life forms.
