  1. Not sure if this topic is still open but I wonder it jirapawat military hospital is still offering knee replacement surgery as I need one and live in Nakhon Sawan. I’m 68 and have osteoarthritis and my knee splays.

    i have AIA insurance but won’t cover 82000 baht, at least if will cover a third though so insurance is worthwhile and necessary.

    How is your knee after 9 years?

    I'm assuming those who want to transfer their UK pension to Thailand from their own bank is because they want to retain a UK address. Otherwise the UK pension office can transfer the money directly to your Thai account which will show up as an international transfer.

    Conversely my state pension, paid directly to my account, shows as Bahtnet (BTN) in my Bangkok bank account whereas when I send my private pensions via TW they show as FTT (foreign transfer).

    DWP sent me a letter stating they send my pension directly into my Thai bank every 28 days. I hope immigration accepts it.

  3. My U.K. pension goes directly into my BKK bank and sometimes the code is FTT but other times it is BTN. The same when I use Transferwise or Xendpay.

    I will be using combination method (transferring the difference of income to 800k from another Thai bank for 3 months then back) will the bank letter accept the 2 different codes as they are both from U.K.?
