Did anyone get through and register? I would like to hear that story. 

 

There are thousands of posts on FB, but all in Thai. And translations were suspended weeks ago. And I can't get Google Translate within Chrome to (right-click) translate, which is a new issue for me. And no time to trouble-shoot it.

One of Bangkok's top hospitals - Bumrungrad in Sukhumvit Road Soi 1 - will be accepting registration for a vaccine of choice against Covid-19 from 9 am today, they announced yesterday as reported by Daily News.

Money to be made... otherwise stay away.

Bumrungrad Day 2:

 

Was on their site since 8:30am this morning. Joined the queue at 9am, with less than 1 hour to wait. At 9:27am, the screen blanked out, and then came up with "Today's registration limit for Moderna Alternative Vaccine has been reached.  You can register for the vaccine tomorrow from 09.00 am onwards."

 

Wow.

[streetlite]

Same here Misty. I wonder who actually gets through to make a reservation. Is there a trick that we don't know about?

[Polar Bear]

I did much the same. I was online from about 8.30. At 9, I got in the queue. Initially it said I had a 7 minute wait, but within a minute or so, that went to 50 minutes. Got kicked off just before 9.30, when I was down to 20 minutes.

[SooKee]

Same here, trying to help a mate register, figured the more of us trying the more chance he'd have.  Opened at 9:02, wait time 16 hours, then changed to 1 hour, then service unavailable, refreshed the window, wait time 38 minutes, then an hour, then 'sorry full'.  More chance of winning the lottery.  The way things are going with Covid, along with the increasing reports of the efficacy of Sinovac, will only make booking vaccines in this way harder and harder, impossible for many.  Disgrace really.

Bumrungrad Day 2:

 

At least it was a quick and painful death today, compared to yesterday.

 

Scanning social media today, still having a hard time finding others who registered.

 

A ThaiVisa member, Yellowtail said in multiple posts that they were able to register yesterday, and pay today via an email link.

 

So at least one Sisyphus made up the mountain, while most of us, alas, watched our boulder roll back down.

 

There's always tomorrow.

Thanks, that's good news for Yellowtail.  It does feel like a twisted game of Survivor at this point.  Is it Season 35-Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers? Or maybe Season 38-Edge of Extinction.

[SooKee]

Quite literally hundreds of negative (putting it politely) comments on their FB page over this.  99% of comments from Thais.

[SooKee]

Managed to get through the actual form filling stage today.  Problem is, by the time I'd typed all the info in and hit 'Submit' it said 'Form Closed'.  Not sure whether that means it went or not or "thanks for wasting your time again on the <deleted> systems of Thailand".  I'm guessing the latter.

Hope you got in.  Not me. I was on their site from 8:30am, got into the queue and then got the kiss of death at 9:10am. 

 

Nice way to treat long term customers, Bumrungrad. The site said they had "2 million visitors" as an excuse.  Do they have actually have 2 million customers I wonder.

Yeah as I say, I actually got to the form filling stage today but just got 'Form Closed' at the bottom when I clicked 'Submit'.  Not 'Submitted', 'Received' or whatever.  So it looks like it's a frantic race to get the form filled in in time even when you get to that stage, otherwise the quota will fill up and close on you.  The way they are doing might seem fair to them, the downside is there's probably thousands of people sat at their computers for 3 days now, wasting time on this BS.

 

Pitiful state the powers that be have landed this country in.  Not much mutual back patting going on at the moment I bet, lower than cockroaches the bloody lot of them.

Same for me. I was on at 8.00am, got the all done message at 9.09.

 

Congrats on making it further at least SooKee. Any tips on how you got to the form, or is it just the luck of the draw?

 

Also, what info do they want on the form? So I can at least be ready if I ever get that far. 

 

Thanks!

No tips I'm afraid, just luck.  I did nothing different to what I'd done the last two days ????  I think getting to the form filling stage only to get the 'Form Closed' was more of a kick in the teeth than not getting there at all.  Once the form opens I kinda thought 'Yipee', forgetting of course that TIT.

[Polar Bear]

Thank you both for the info anyway. Please let us know if you get a payment link in the next few days!

I'll be announcing my winning lottery ticket before that happens I think.

One more question, please! At 9.00am, did you constantly refresh, or just wait for it to update? I had 2 browsers open and refreshed one, and left the other to update on it own. They seemed to change at the same time, but maybe there's a pattern. (Or maybe I am grasping at straws)

Gave up on Bumngrad.  Someone sent me a link for Kasemrad Hospitals.  Registered and paid for my chum for Moderna full dose (2) at World Medical Hospital, Chaeng Wattana.  Took much refreshing of screens and re-submitting of details following 'Can't be processed at this time' but persevered and it all went through eventually.

 

Had dozens of attempts due to their servers doubtless being busy and had to change hospitals once (don't know it that helped or not) but all sorted, at least inasmuch as you can count registered and paid as being sorted.

Tried multiple browser windows the 2nd day.  Today just had the one window open which I opened at 08:59 then kept clicking the 'Register now' and back button until it got through on about the 15th attempt.

[Polar Bear]

Bumrungrad have ditched the ridiculous website registration. It sounds like the new plan will involve them contact people instead, but they haven't given details yet.

Bumrungrad, Like every other reported hospitals that offer vaccinations other than Chinese worthless shots, the registration is near impossible. The very limited supply of effective vaccine makes getting an appointment even next year a pipe dream.
