Could I have some recommendations for a Dentist preferably in the Chalong area, not happy with the Dentist I have been using.

If possible renew in the UK, use both Passports for return then transfer stamps when back in Thailand, I don't know this for certain but it would make everything easier if possible.

Do you still make an appointment at the Trendy building(Bangkok) for UK Passport renewal if so is there a link where to make the appointment. Thanks.

I will check again at my soon to get 800k retirement extension that Phuket Immigration only require 12 months of deposits into a Thai Bank account(Statement showing this) I did ask them if I need to prove where the deposits come from they said "no" they do not need anything else other than Bank letter and Statement, Passport copies, I am printing off my Statements showing my deposits so by next October(2023) I will be able to produce over 1 year of deposits. I need to check this again as maybe IO didn't understand my request.

Thanks, I already said that Phuket Immigration do not need proof of where the transfers come from I only need to show the deposits in my Thai Bank (statements) I will check again when I go for my Extension.

Thanks for all your replies, I have already started printing out the deposits that go into my Thai Bank(Statement) to be safe I will also print out the statements from the Bank of America and Citi Bank, I have one other deposit which is from Tesco(not sure what Bank yet) all deposits are from the UK.

I've had income into my Thai Bank for the last 13 years it's only recently that they now add up to 65k plus. What are the obvious reasons?

So I have to wait untill my next extension in 2023 to be able to withdraw the 800k? Phuket Immigration told me all I need is a Thai bank Statement showing the 12 deposits, plus Letter, I asked If I needed to prove where the deposits came from he said "no"

I will be doing my Retirement Extension very soon and using the 800k in the Bank, next year I will be changing to the 65k per month method, will I be able to withdraw the 800k after I get my new extension which is due soon. Its not a problem if I have to wait untill my renewal in 2023. Ref the Bank letter and statement, the letter has to show the deposits making 65k or more per month, the letter will confirm I receive deposits totalling more than 65k per month is this correct? Thanks.

I just wanted my correct address on the payment statement in case Immigration wouldn't accept it for Retirement combination method, hopefully it won't matter, its my name on the statement plus the payments replicate my Siam Bank Statement, I'll ask Immigration and show them the BOA statements hoping they will accept. I also have a Pension sent through Citi Bank which does not show any address on the Statement.

Does anyone have a contact email for the Bank of America, my Pension provider(uk) sends my Pension via the Bank of America, I need to change my address that they have for me as its a very old address, my Pension provider can not help me with this, I tried Bangkok but they do not deal with normal Banking issues, I just need to email them in the hope they will change the address. Thanks.

Thanks, all this is just to much trouble, I'm going to forget it and carry on with the 800k in the Bank which is very simple, I wanted to buy a Motorbike but instead I can get it on Finance over 2 years, thanks for the information.

Thanks, I have my 90 day report this month so I will check with the guy outside room 103, maybe he will go inside and ask the IO, I did the combination method about 10 yrs ago and can't remember a problem but obviously things change.

Yes I have had 800k in my bank for 14 yrs, I want to free up 240k hence why I want to now do the combination method.

Okay so I have my Pension providers letter and Pay slips(UK) I have my Thai bank statement confirming monthly transfers, if I also get a letter from my Thai bank which confirms the monthly credits are International that should be accepted by Immigration? I don't know what else I could do.

All I can do is try with what I have, Pension provider letter proving I receive a monthly Pension(UK) Pension pay slips showing monthly pension(GBP)Thai bank statement showing Monthly deposits, if they don't accept it its not a problem.

Okay, I can print off 12 months of Pension pay slips.

As I stated I have my Pension letter from the UK, I'm not using a full year just 6 months which I assume will be okay.

Just checking if I can use the combination method rather than the 800k in the bank. I have my Pension letter confirming my monthly pension(UK) pension pay slips and copies of bank statement showing monthly deposits, I'm in Phuket. I just want to take 240k keeping 560k for my Extension.

My Diet is good as it is managed by my gf, haven't touched Alcohol for approx 8 months now and don't intend on restarting,

Was told to take Asprin after a TIA Stoke, Doc also said nothing to worry about as most people have had a Stroke that they knew nothing about and felt nothing, I went dizzy with double vision for about 15 seconds. It scared me so I went to Hospital.

I know Wind can be very painful as have had before but I've had many many tests and none have shown Wind in fact not one test has shown anything other than normal, in the last Yr I've had over 20 X-Rays on my Chest which also included my abdomin all clear, I'm convinced the Endoscopy will show nothing and just like the pain I had in my side(very bad and for a few months) it will disappear on its own. You go to a Dr because you are unwell and need help, you trust them to help you but like many all they seem to be interested in is giving you loads of tablets, I've had 10k worth of tablets in the last 4 months and were useless!!

Previous Dr was at a Phuket Private Hospital current one is at Mission Hospital(Phuket) and He is a She.

That's scary, I'll still go for Endoscopy as best check inside.
