    Whilst the focus has been on rebar quality, they still need to establish that the poor quality was the significant factor in the buildings collapse. What about construction, design, quality of concrete......are these all being looked at....or could that raise too many questions and put Thais rather than the Chinese in the search lights?

     

    Sadly will the Thais find the proper fall guy?

     And that info is what is in the DTAC weblink I gave in my earlier post with examples.  The 004 method is a cheaper since lower priority lines are used.

    I am at a loss, went to DTAC and they were marginally helpful, according to a friends they expanded the oversea capability.  ????

    The main issues is I can call the 004-1800-772 1213 get the message for the toll free call is not free and you have to pay, then it rings, and I either get a drop/clip or a busy signal.

     

    Yet tried a AIS phone and got through, waited for an hour, and against better judgement had to hang up and try again.. not my phone.  When we tried to dial the same games started... drop click.  What the heck..

     

    Any suggestions?

     Confirm you are calling the correct way like using the + symbol to begin with...see DTAC instructions below for more info on how to make an international call when using DTAC.   If you are not calling the correct way you could very well get the response you are currently getting.  

    https://www.dtac.co.th/en/idd.html 

     

    And there is a chance the SSA "1800" number is setup to reject calls from foreign numbers.   If that's the case then you could try the SSA Int'l Operations number in Baltimore who have a different number, a non-1800 number.   If you have a non-US address onfile with SSA then the Int'l Ops division is the one that would  most likely work your issue.  HOWEVER, BUT, it can be hard to reach a human...and you can only contact them during their Mon-Fri business hours.   See their webpage below.

    Thai friend called DTAC and instructed to use 004-1-800-772-1213... (2.5 baht/min).... also used the +1-800-772-1213...(8 baht /min)  Will try again tonight  Thanks for the insights

    I I neither received a 7162 last June/July nor one in November. I didn't received a tax statement for 2023 either. This has never happened before. I copied a form 7162 from that I received last year, filled it out and sent it with a short note, I did it again a week later. I don't know what else to do.

    How did that go for you... I am thinking of doing the same.

    If you are talking SSA 1-800-772-1213 main central number, I called two times on 19 Feb/Saturday morning at 10:10am and 10:12am and the SSA voice interaction system answered before the 2nd ring.  Working fine for me.   I called from my Magic Jack app phone number    But Donald and Elon may have fired all the SSA Call Center probationary employees when you called but hired them back a few hours later when I called.

    https://www.ssa.gov/agency/contact/phone.html

     

    Note: I actually called 3 times because on one try I misdialed the number as 1-800-722-1213 and got some company vs SSA thanking me for calling and offered me a free medical device based on the first 15 or so seconds that I listened to the voice interaction system.  

     

    Yes that is the one.. I have been trying since Monday.. I get the busy signal and one click off.   Any other suggestions..   Calling in the am  0800-0900 .      Using  Dtac.
