Hi All I did the online NI contribution/Pension Top-up Assessment It said I need to pay from 2008 to now if I want the 180 pounds a week figure it gave me - the sum from 2008-2024 is 12k pounds (probably nearer 10 as I'll be tier 3 for all that time (teaching here since then)) I know I will need to continue to pay until retirement age (another 13 years) if I top up. My question is: If I pay from 2008 to 2038 (about 20-25k i think), I can get my 180 pounds a week equivalent when I retire while staying in Thailand or not? Thanks to anyone who can shed light. LL I should add that ostensibly it seems that I'd get my 20-25k back after a couple of years so it seems a deal too good to be true if I want to draw a UK gov pension in Thailand

My friend spelt her Aunt's surname wrong so it's her mistake Cheers for the replies so far 🙂

Hi all A colleague of mine has bought a plane ticket with Emirates and got one letter wrong on her Aunt's long Thai name. She contacted Emirates and said they will add this to REMARKS on the ticket but not change it. I imagine this happens sometimes with the transliteration of long Thai names Is there likely to be a problem in members' experience? She obviously just wants peace of mind Kind Regards LL

Thanks a bunch for all responses :)
