  1. The line in the beginning got me. The op lingered after the club closed out of curiosity!!!

    Seems to me he was looking for a girl!!

    To the op, don't get involved with what doesn't concern you. Yes, help people out but the first thing you should have done was to get the girl medical help,

    Also, beer bottles are very hard to break on someone's head. I doubt it broke on her head.

    Stay out of the bar scene.

  2. Ypu need to find a pension expert.

    i have a private UK pension from 1990, Single contribution of 8,000 GBP. The total value of the plan has slowly grown to 18,000 GBP. However the Transfer Value of the plan is worth 66,000 GBP, which I think means I can buy an annuity for 66,000 GBP (without taking the allowed lump sum of about 25 pc).

    So the plan was not such a bad investment after all.

    First off try and find out the Transfer Value of your fund.

    If your plan is work 18,000 then that's the transfer value. It won't be worth nearly 4 times value.

    The plan may be worth 66,000 on your retirement in many years but not to transfer now.

    As to the op post, no you can't cash it in.

    You need to wait until probably retirement but it depends on your provider and also the employer.

    If you were allowed to cash them then I suspect many many people would do it!

  3. 6 years.

    Yeah thanks.

    Only asked coz it is probably expired by a week now but have since been assured its no problem renewing once back in Thailand.

    Again, you've been assured it no problem renewing once in Thailand.

    I think you gf is having you on!

  4. Why not ask her?

    The dates have 'worn off' the actual card and as she is in Qatar she wasn't sure. We simply thought this would be quicker than calling home at 1.00 am in the morning but thanks for your insightful reply.

    I would have thought that a 30 year old Thai would know because she would have renewed it many times, come on mate, she knows. If she says she can't remember then she's lying.
