Grumpy John Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 (edited) 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.

RichCor Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 I'd suggest using an online Internet Fax service, one with an in-Australia Google Search Internet Fax to Australia ...look for something like eFax Australia:https://www.efax.com.au/#:~:text=Australia's%20%231%20Online%20Fax%20Service,saves%20you%20time%20and%20money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterw42 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There used to be free ones floating around, probably stlll some out there if you search enough. https://www.lifewire.com/free-fax-services-2378048 Why cant the people in Australia accept the document as an email attachment ?

You would have to ask the government why in 2020 they cannot accept emails. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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!

lopburi3 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris.B Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreasyFingers Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 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, . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayceenik Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 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! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy John Posted September 3, 2020 Author Share Posted September 3, 2020 Hi Lopburi3, there are a few computer shops in PhiChit. If my son in Oz cannot do it I will give it a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
