As far as I am aware from the list provided with the Life certificate form, bank personnel are not listed. I got mine signed at the local police station, fee 200 baht including the official police stamp.

My last UK state pension did not arrive 2 weeks ago. Upon contacting the international pension centre, they told me it was stopped because I hadn't returned the life certificate sent in February. I never received it at my home address here in Thailand. It was all sorted out on the phone with a email sent to me enclosing the life certificate. My payment resumed a week later than it should have. I airmailed the life certificate back a couple of days after I got it as I needed the witness statement signed. Ironically the letter saying my payment was going to be stopped arrived a few days after my phone call to IPC, with another life certificate form attached. It took nearly 6 weeks to arrive here.

I think I got scammed by a girl from a dating website!
Andycoops replied to kaleyho's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Sounds like you got off lightly, good bail out. If you smell a rat and become uncomfortable it's always best to walk. Plenty more out there. Also 5k to eat at a Isaan restaurant is a red flag immediately. I feed a dozen on less than half that.- 107 replies

What do these idiots think when they go into these places, it's a freebie. Dumb as **** If your not sure about the prices ask to see the list, or pay as you go.

Myanmar conflict surge: Over 3,300 refugees seek shelter in Thailand
Andycoops replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Hardly surprising as the slaughter of the innocent continues. And the corrupt, so called caretaker government, is inviting the equally corrupt butchers of Burma to a meeting in Bangkok. Well done the other ASEAN members for refusing to attend and poking another finger in the nose of the pathetic Too and his cronies. -

What you described is entirely normal in the Thai health care system because you are comparing it with, I assume, with a health care system from your country of birth. Which in the UK is paid for by taxpayers, there aren't many tax payers here and the rate is low for those that do. The Thais don't get angry about this as they already know what to expect.

The demise of the village ATM.
Andycoops replied to Crossy's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
Only 2 Kms away. An easy walk. My nearest ATM is 9 Kms away at a PTT station and if that's out of order the next one is 13 Kms. -
I do mine in person and as a result enjoy a small holiday in Bangkok catching up with family and enjoying some nightlife entertainment.
