"Must be paid for" is actually an important thing to note with this and there was a thread here a while back reporting an airline's request for proof of payment at check in . The traveller in that thread managed to get it emailed to them while in the airport but others might not be so lucky. From the UK Gov website:

See the second post in the thread. Open on Thursday and Friday this week.

They may offer vaccination there too - I don't know - but the stadium would be a safe bet IMO.

I did. The stadium venue is under their auspices.

Yes, at the Indoor Stadium venue. It's supposed to be operating again on 23rd, 24th, 27th, 29th and 30th of this month.

I got a Pfizer booster last week from Banglamung following 2 x AZ, the second of which was in early September, so it would appear they're following the 3 months rule.

I'm on 95.0.2 and nothing has happened to my search settings. Google is still available for me so I don't think the update is to blame. These are the choices I get:

Come on - as a neutral observer you're not exactly coming out of this one with any credibility. -
Some hotels now charging extra guest fee
treetops replied to Pravda's topic in Thailand Travel Forum
I don't think the staff would make that decision - it needs someone senior who would be expected to understand that win/win is better than lose/lose - and there was no suggestion of bullying (or dishonesty) in the case in question. The potential drawbacks such as those described by robblok can be addressed but it needs someone with the right attitude and know-how so as not to cause future issues. Possible solutions were given in posts subsequent to the one you quoted, but you conveniently haven't responded to these. Why the assumption? I have already agreed that adherence to rules should pretty much be the default, but when an opportunity arises that could be good for both parties, such as that being discussed, then strict adherence to the rules ends up with only losers. And why the snigger? -
Very odd. Many, many reports on here and all until now mention the numbers are 13 digits and start with 6000. Was there anything unusual about your situation? Please let us know how you get on with Mor Phrom.

So maybe you grant it (verbally) with a rider that it is not publicised or will be denied. If you know the recipient well enough to grant it you know him well enough to know whether he would go along with that. There is almost always a solution that makes it a win/win, you just have to find it. -

I agree with most of what you say regarding rules/guidelines etc and the reasons behind them, but in this specific example the hotel could have done much better. When 4MyEgo made the request a good operator would have responded with something along the lines of "as you're a regular customer, and we know your kids, we'll do it on this one occasion only as a goodwill gesture, but to be fair to all our guests, for any further stays we must follow the regular procedure". 4MyEgo feels good, the hotel wins, no real precedent is set, no biteback on social media and no potential anger or embarrassment as any potential future requests have been dealt with too. The 5 star hotel may have made a rod for it's back for the very reasons you say, and some customers may still be trying at at age 13 or 14 and that would be wrong (not saying 4MyEgo is likely to do that) but a good hotel will find a solution that works for them and the customer. Shame some hoteliers don't see that. -
Does it have an ID number beginning 6000? If so, this is a vaccine ID number which is OK but different from your ID card number. Entering that into Mor Phrom should access your records. As suggested earlier the address may be the hospital or vaccination site address. What does it show on a map if you google the address?

Buy another opener off Lazada and DIY.

Humorous response but I notice you didn't disagree with my point. Maybe you're learning something useful from this thread that'll enhance your business? -

Conversely, when children turn 12 they're using pretty much the same hotel resources as they were aged 11¾, so 4MyEgo is justified in taking his business elsewhere, and the hotel just looks stupidly inflexible. All hotels have rules and guidelines. Good hotels know how and when to apply them. -
A suggestion for anyone using this facility at the indoor stadium on Chaiyaphruek who has not got a Thai ID or vaccine ID number. I was there last week to get a booster following two jabs in the UK earlier this year so had no record on the Thai vaccination system. I asked at a couple of stages if I would get some kind of certificate for this booster and no-one seemed to know and referred me to Banglamung Hospital. Part way through the registration process you are given a small printout with some details on it that you take to the next stage where it's taken from you. Take a photo of that slip before you hand it in as your vaccine ID number is on it. I used it to register on Mor Phrom and could see the details in my records before I left the stadium.
