1100 baht for a letter!

 

Can we have regular airmail, please ????

I hope it gets out to the rural areas of Thailand. The people out here don't always seem to get clear news of what is happening.

Yes.

See here, update of June 2nd:

No idea what the big "news" in this article is.

The overpriced courier service was available all the time (as far as I know).

Perhaps the worthless slackers in the DLT offices might even go back to work one of these days?

Can we have regular airmail to the USA and Australia please. Surely there are enough repatriation flights these days to get the mail moving.

Hallelujah. There must be mountains of mail waiting to be delivered.

Jeez finally! I had ordered something from the US via UPS & USPS on 22nd of April, made its way form California and Taiwan, the package is actually here in the kingdom but still stuck at the customs I guess!

[ehs818]

I had been waiting for my $1200 stimulus check form the USA. I checked online and it was mailed on May 1. Yesterday, June 8, it was delivered (finally). I took it to my bank and they don't handle international checks. So now I must mail it back to my sister in the US and have her deposit it. TIT. But I am glad that international mail service is back to normal. Should be little delay in her receiving it and then depositing it in my account.....

I am still waiting for a packet from UK posted at the beginning of April. Stuck somewhere in a mountain of  delayed mail and may never appear.

Agreed.

 

Courier Post letter to U.S. recently for me was 990 baht.

 

I fear "regular" airmail (~ 37 baht) is a long way off.

You should check if your USA bank has an app that will let you photograph the check to deposit it. I used that twice for my Wells Fargo account.

Today they declined to accept it and told me I can use EMS for more than 800 baht. I'll wait! It's not that important that I want to spend an extra 700 baht for....

They have but you need to get a appointment online first.

[DrTuner]

Amen, my package from Germany arrived. About three weeks. Looks like the pipe is open again.

[kickstart]

I sent a letter to the UK last week ,17 baht ,thought afterwards, normaly  27?baht, is it going by sea route, or air mail. .

A package I ordered end of March, still not got here from the UK.

But, the  May 22ed -June2ed edition  of Private Eye got to me last week.
