SoCal1990 You forget that some of us have wonderful Thai Families and basically, we bring up our Granddaughters or our Daughters as we treat them as such!!! Yes, I live in a rural village and the locals know I provide many things and yes we pay taxes on everything too.

Every month it seems there is a problem with State Pension being late. Yes, mine was due 4 July and of course, the American Independence Day and sometimes at other times, either an English or Thai National Holiday and normally when check ATM very early on Saturday it still has not hit, Anyone else having this problem and surely ther must be a system when it is flagged. Thanks All

They just want your money and yes hearing that if there is not sufficient equipment locally or aftercare and yes even the Thias are not covered by their own policy!!

And we ex-pats or for some more appropriate words and they all think we are loaded with wonderful families to support, but we get branded as the same, at times

Oh what a surprise, NOT

Hearing people and see people vaping and drinking cans of beer in parks and outside department stores and yes this illegal I assume?

Yes, and often state why are you slowing down and why are you letting traffic in from the left. Surely there are security cameras but maybe not enough. In the UK and not aptly named, there are cameras everywhere and more often than not get fined!!!

Not good for UK landlines from home computer.

Yes, thanks seen this and no it does not work from home computer.

Not yet in the H of L and trying to delay it!!!

wOW!!!

To do with attitude and I know who I get a good response from and yes, most people are struggling but there is good and bad everywhere in the world.

Depends on attitude, and yes good and bad everywhere in the world and frankly I know the ones who always respond.

Thank you, JackGats and some of the subs are large but appreciate your post and thanks again.

Thanks very much and that is why I could not find it

Thanks msbkk and schoggibueb Thanks for your input and yes noticed my 3 numbers got transferred to Team but not yet used it as Proof of living and other pension stuff not due yet but was asking what options after the balance goes and that is that can not top up.

Hi, and yes, I understand that the balance has transferred over to Team and yes can not buy any more credits and can still use the credits, as the numbers have been transferred also. Can anyone recommend sites which deal with using a home computer to call UK landlines and some seem to offer only mobiles and do not want a huge subscription but pay as you go. Thanks all and seeing a few like Mytello and before yesterday was highly recommended but no way will be using them.

Yes, I did have Skype and the new company is something like Team or similar, and yes, any balance on your account would get transferred over, but one cannot top it up, and I only use it for landlines from my home computer. Surasak and yes, have heard this, and one can make calls on a landline UK from a home computer and think one has to have a mobile just for verification and can top the balance up, and please correct me if wrong. Thanks

Same same everywhere in the world and we despise all the corrupt ones and just about all of them

What you say is completely true, and all of the corrupt so-called politicians and Senators know it and we all knew what would happen but as is the case all over the world, they are all the same, and I am all right, Jack and Jill, I am loaded and keep the peasants poor.

We all know the Senators were and still are corrupt 100%

Win the most votes and denied by the Senators to form a Government!!!

Yes, many have wonderful Thai wives and families, and yes, we look after them, but so too, very much viz a versa. Many also have no family and just a very few friends back in Blighty, and it would be impossible to even exist there, and also no way can get a spouse there. Well, not any more and it was very difficult 21 years ago!! Maybe sell some land, but like other places, not in our names and also, they seem reluctant to sell, but if we run short, then some of us may be lucky, Yes, been here 18 years, and an amazing place, but hard on fixed income like frozen State pensions and yes, families can be expensive but do not feel stuck and the same as if one gets an emergency but one has a little set by, Also, some Thais think old Blighty is great, but one has to remind them of all the taxes and they think one can get a job and yes have a couple of friends and they get told how very hard it is and yes the same everywhere. The answer is how can we exist on a very small amount and no thanks. We also keep up with the news in the media too.

Many people do not change that much, but sometimes I update them and up to you.

Stevem agree with your post and yes 100% the last sentence and there is good and bad everywhere on this planet
