Need to use a fax machine in Phichit.

Featured Replies

Hi folks, I have a document I need to send to Australia.  Phichit PO accepted it last week and now they say cannot deliver.  $37 for a letter not enough ay?  So now it's fax or nothing!  Does anyone know where I can send a fax from in Phichit.  I tried several gold shops, 4 photocopy shops, Kodak shop, the PO...to no avail.  Ps: Most could do in Thailand but not international.

There are lots of online fax services, google it. myfax.com, hellofax.com

Go to the fax service website, upload or email your document and it gets sent as a fax.

Also apps for your phone that do the same thing.

...was just about to say, is there a reason the recipient won't accept the document as a emailed pdf?

You would have to ask the government why in 2020 they cannot accept emails.

Australian government rules.  They wouldn't do it on the phone because I  have to show a bank stamp and bank manager signature on the form. Peer gave me a link to some free sites...I might get lucky! 

If you have PayPal FaxZero is a very reliable service (free to US/Canada for 3 pages).  $1.99 to Oz up to 15 pages.

Try some Internet cafes, they should be able to scan/email/fax for you for a fee.

 

Failing that it will have to be a Thai lawyer's office for a larger fee.

 

If you have contacts in Australia email it to them and then they can fax it to the government.

 

Have run into this problem before,

.

For many years from Thailand I've used successfully this company for FAX to Belgium and Thailand.

https://www.gotfreefax.com/

 

Open their web site and scroll all the way down to "International Fax" to get the international rates. Cheap!

Very easy to use!

Probably the only option!  My son is in Melbourne...hopefully he can go to a post office or internet shop.

Hi Peter, the problem is I no longer have a credit or debit card...or Paypal so despite the free trials or 3 free faxs I cannot sign up!

Do you know someone that does?  Even a computer shop might have card or paypal they could use to pay and charge you in cash/fee?

Hi Lopburi3,  there are a few computer shops in PhiChit.  If my son in Oz cannot do it I will give it a go.
