Surasak

IF, the government ever get around to vaccinating all of the people, including foreigners, between now and October, maybe they will have the good fortunes they hope for. As the flocks of pigs gather for their regular flights, they have a navigational problem. All the pie in the sky promises made over the past 7 years.

That's not true , The Thai government has reserves  of about 251784.34 USD Million and the ability to borrow.

And tourism  , though  significant, comprises only  21% of GDP as of 2019

Sounds like a serious case of Dianne Abbott!

on the form it only allows 10 digits for your Thai

Social security number and will not accept any more.

My number has 13 digits not counting - spacers.

Just for info

Why would you register with Thai SS number when the information is directed to UK nationals? Do you not have a UK passport?

What did they expect? I said the other day, they are idiots studying to be morons and are very likely to get first class degrees.

Just one more question, does anyone know if partners/wives or boyfriends/husbands, or in my case a Thai girlfriend can also be signed up & paid for ? If anyone gets any info can you post here please, thanks.

My wife over 50 and my son over thirty have both been signed up for the Moderna jab. Whether we get them or not is in the lap of the gods,

Moderna at private hospitals: It'll cost 3,400 baht for two jabs, can pay from Thursday

Have the hospitals been told yet ? I don't wanna turn up and be greeted with a blank stare. ????????

 

 

A blank stare would be better then scowl. A blank stare could open possibilities, with a cowl, what chance do you have?

Is it a secret which hospitals will offer this, and, as usual are they all in Bangkok?

 

 

I think not, as I am registered at a private hospital in Khon Kaen

10 outta 10 half wits,go to the top of the class. lets doubledown on the songkran debacle,how are they gonna make money out of this is what im trying to figure out as thats gotta be the bottom line,no ones that stupid??

I wouldn't put money on that.

The Thai 'government' were very complacent last March 2020. They thought the virus had passed them by. No need to order Vaccines, the numbers here are so low it's not worth it.

Then along came the BIG bite in the ass, supported by lack of organisation or competence. Plus the name calling and derogatory comments by a minister who should know better, but never will.  We have since had the world and his wife leaving Bangkok, spreading the Covid country wide and now we have the workers in BKK leaving in droves. IDIOTS STUDYING TO BE MORONS, and they are likely to first class degrees.

What type of vaccine used in Samui?

Dishwater!!??

AsaIk Khon Kaen is a yellow area with no restrictions. I have just returned home from my local and all was as usual.

Some tried to disguise themselves with leaves.

Was that Fig leaves?

And may I remind you all. Adam and were the first people ever NOT to read the Apple terms and conditions.????

Pipat said he didn't want the Phuket Mafia putting a spanner in the works.. Don't worry Mate, the Mafia have a monster great tool box. One spanner indeed.

Just another double cross as per. What's new?

Post ALL of the details here and I'll try to work it out for you. Ridiculous.

Presumably you meant a Thailand VISA debit card.

 

Remember the OP wrote PHONE (BILL), not debit or credit card. So you case looks like a case of card fraud, as opposed to a debit on a telephone bill.

 

If of course the £45 charge was to her card and nothing to do with the phone at all; then that would be the OP's misreporting, wouldn't it?

 

Clearer now? Yours seems like a simple case of your card details being sold or just used by someone who got hold of them.

Thanks all the same, but it is in the hands of the Thai bank. I'll leave it to them to sort. I clearly stated it was a Thai card

ATM fraud is most likely, your card was scanned by a fake ATM front.

Possible, except I don't use the card in any ATM. I always use another card from an internet bank, and never in my KrungThai bank ATM always Aeon, its cheaper.

You cannot order by phone with Deliveroo. Also not aware that they can make a charge to someone's telephone/Internet bill. That doesn't sound right. 

So, explain how they charged my Thai visa card when I have NEVER used that card for international payments, only ever local. The only company who has my card details is Lazada. Your thoughts please?

Ok, so I assume from that, the mother uses a landline, in which case no it wont work.

 

Heres an idea, get a UK skype number, she dials a local number (cheaper) and you can have it ring (divert to) whatever number you choose.

 

 

I'll hop in here and say, I call my sister in the UK using Skype. I have a UK Skype number @£38/year, then I pay £10.OO maybe two to three times per year for calls @1.3p per minute. Last month, same as the op, a payment to Delivroo  for 29,750Baht appeared on my KrungThai A/C I called the call centre in BKK and it turns out this was taken from my KT card with the security number. It is being investigated as I type, and intend to call today to check the progress with the ID number I was given. If and when I get any info, I will keep you posted.

Doesn't take much for greed to raise its ugly head. I want and the rest of the country can go hang. They're like spoilt kids in a candy store, doing a tantrum because they can't have what they want.

Can I suggest young man, give it a go. If you don't ask the question, you may never know the answer.

I don't know actually, but I'm creeping up that way myself. If I make it I'll let you know.
