I will try that next year, mail here in Thailand is very hap hazard sometimes very quick other times not so, i have had mail turn up 3 months later, why they can't use email for some things that are not so important, i do'nt know!

Getting back to my original opening post my proof of life letter turned up, it had taken two months to get here, my pension had been stopped, hence the phone call as outlined in the opener, i did write them a letter stating my pension was now ok after the phone call, did't expect a answer and did't get one, civil servants i presume working from home, poor dears, probably rushed of their feet.

It the ECHR that blocked every Rawanda flight, it has to go!

Yes, what happened to that big barge thing that the tories had, i know that bonehead starmer emptied it on his first couple of days in power, is still aeond i wonder!

Yes, the georgie woman excepted my phone call after going through many checks, then finally said ok it should take a couple of days for the money to arrive in my UK account, though i'm told it's more than a couple of days!

Got it sorted finally by phone (although the email address by "ppguy" looks promising) after a fairly long wait finally got through to a lady with a Newcastle accent who went through a check list and fialy accepted i was still alive, as others have mentioned it appears to be a proof of life form that i never received! So i would like to thank everybody again, that provided very helpful advice that put me on the right track. Just waiting now for missing paymets to appear on my UK bank account, (fingers crossed) will be checking everyday of course!

Thank you and others for your quick replies, would you know the email address you quoted by chance? i try to avoid phone calls as my 86 yr old ears are not so good these days, so email would be a good start!

My UK (DWP) was paid into my UK bank (Halifax Bank) every week without fail, until recentley when it has suddenely stopped, the last payment being 2nd May, has anyone else had this problem? I thought maybe they (DWP) had put me onto monthly payments with bothering to infom me which under this shambles of a government we've now got, could well be! Anyone any knowledge of this to put my mind at rest!

Slightly of topic, but seeing starmer standing proudly in front of a union jack flag is sickening, when he does everything he can to put british people at the back of queue for just about everything, unless it's paying taxes the we are right up front!

Don't know if this has been mentioned, when we in the EU this unfair practise was brought up, tony blair that well known so called socialist fought tooth and nail to get it stopped and apparently was succefull (sp) good old toe eh!

Don't you mean useful idiot, much more fitting when it involves Starmer!

Quite, he still looking for his cervix poor chap!

Wonder what happened to the other Swiss man who beat up a woman in a suermarket around about the same time as this Swiss elephant owner?

The divers who discovered the boys were british experts at cave rescue, The doctor who worked out actually how to get them out of the cave was Australian which was brilliant, but he expected some losses.

Yes after the Thai navy seals said they had done all they could, and requested the forein (British) help that was present at the site.
