  1. I received my 2nd Pfizer jab today in Udon Thani. I am an 80 year old American retiree that registered successfully, but never heard back, from both the Expatvav program and Bangkok Hosp. in Khon Kaen for the Pfizer vaccinations. To the best of my knowledge, I never received any email or message from either source, which I kept checking. I randomly read on line about the Pfizer vaccination program offered by the Udon Thani Provincial Health dept. I registered and received both vaccinations here in Udon Thani quickly, efficiently, and professionally.
  2. I also applied to Expatvav on Aug.2. I received my "acceptance" on aug. 3. I have had no reply since then. My Thai friend copied and attached my documentation as I do not know how to do those functions. My passport page was copied as well as the only page that showed my O visa. I did not provide my retirement extension, as it is not a visa. The application form requested my visa. No mention was made in the application for my retirement extension. If they wanted "retirement status", that is what they should have aked for, but they didn't. I think the application form should have mde it clearer what they wanted: my visa or retirement status, or both? That issue was confusing. I am American, 80 years old, with underlying health condition: coronary heart disease. That documentation was provided. Another reader posted a phone # for contacting Expatvav: 02 572 8442. I called and pressed # 9 for English. A rep came on and spoke good English. BUT he said he had no way to verify my application status. I live in udon Thani and he suggested that being in an outer lying province from Bangkok he thought it was taking longer for arrangements to be made for vaccine transfer and vaccination appointments to get made. His only suggestion was for me to wait longer for an appointment for vaccination. He had no information on applictions or their current status. No abiity to access status of accepted applications (or rejections) is, in my opinion, a flaw in that system. Other readers replies about their receiving "rejections" due to visa issues, also seems to point to other system flaws. I continue to wait, as contacting Expatvac at their phone # provided no answers to the status of my accepted application. i suggest Expatvac aplicants within driving distance to Khon Kaen consider contacting Bangkok hosp. in Khon kaen and consider applying to receive vaccination there. I did that as an alternative option, since the rep representing Expatvac could provide no status of my accepted, but in limbo status (?), of my accepted Ecpatvac application. Bangkok hosp offers multiple selections of vaccines, depending on your circumstances: I chose Pfixer based on my elegibility due to my age and heart condition. My application was accpted and i am going to call and confirm my appt. date of Sept 12 between 11-12 noon. I have not received any emailor sms response since my application was submitted yesterday. I will update when I have any Expat, or Bangkok hosp in khon Kaen, additional response or confirmtion, etc.
