  1. ...and yet there are AN members who post about using poison to control soi dogs....
  2. All great information, now go to CM on the 22nd and relay all that to the FBU.......and tell them to fix it or provide better resources!
  3. I take it that you don't read the other posts? I posted this on July 7th: "Looking at my records from last year, my form was dated June 6 when I received it. I mailed it out on June 26th so I'm thinking it probably took a few weeks from the time it was created and mailed to me. After weeks had passed with mailing it I emailed the FBU mid-August and asked if they had received my signed form. They replied saying that since the process is undertaken by the US Central Office they couldn't tell me if it had been received at that time and to query them again in 1-2 months."
  4. Eliminate their jobs? Seriously? They should know that they are overwhelmed if it takes them days/weeks to respond to an email.....and months to react to various requests.....or perhaps the inability for a person to contact them via phone. One would think that they would accept and appreciate some help. Again.....folks should (if they are able) take the time and meet with the FBU in CM and at least be vocal let them know they lack supporting us properly.
  5. I did!! I shrunk myself down to an itty biddy size, jumped in the friggin envelope and followed my 7162 across the SSA employee's desk while it was being verified and inputted into the system. Are you for real?????
  6. I know that, but they are supposed to be our 'eyes & ears' or are they not? Overwhelm them and then perhaps they will understand that they need some support....... Would it hurt to express yourself about the need of an automated process? Folks on AN rant & rave about DOGE and how they are cutting expenses..... so it takes $0 to send folks from the Manila Embassy to CM? LMAO
  7. Hey folks, instead of whining, crying, and boasting how much you think you know how about going to CM and let the Manila FBU know how much a desired automated process would be? If a lot of folks crammed the Payap University on July 22nd then perhaps the FBU will take more notice of us wanting an electronic process. https://th.usembassy.gov/u-s-citizen-services/federal-benefits/social-security/?fbclid=IwY2xjawLizwdleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETBIZ2drT3VockNpMFpjSlRwAR4B9wOjCckfZcs2UlczOA_wiqn0J1zqMtKLKrEgjEc2MJpyD0lohx641-AAHA_aem_nupxtqfgW4KDLipzmtXnEg As I stated before, be loud, get noticed, and maybe they will understand our concerns. I bombard the Manilla Ambassador almost weekly on 'X (Twitter) about our lack of support in Southeast Asia.
  8. I can't believe you spent 2 hours of our time watching that crap....
  9. How about comparing the USA homicides annually per capita vs. annual vehicle fatalities in Thailand per capita? I know which is worse (by far) without even looking at the numbers. .......and yet the AN <deleted> still try to bash the USA...... happens all the time when you're 'top dog'!
  10. Nobody is mentioning one of my favorites, Celestial Seasonings...
  11. Yeah, that was my initial thought as well when I first saw the title to this thread...
  12. Isn't that the same symptoms from many different illnesses?
  13. Maybe where you live, but where I live I find that Lotus is cheaper than Makro on many items.
  14. Just imagine if Thais had to drive on snow-packed and icy roads...... I think it would be more entertaining than watching Texans driving in Colorado during some of those snow days.... 'Hey, I have 4-wheel drive, I can go fast without any problem.' 🙂
  15. Just where does this "International Operations" reside and what is their phone number? (Are you referring to the FBU in Manilla?) TIA, as I like to confirm things myself rather than take the word of an unknown forum poster.
