Pedrogaz Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Not me....got a rejection form because the registration program does not let you put two items in a box, and they wanted passport & visa in one box. I sent the missing info two weeks or so ago....heard nothing since. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see a Pfizer option coming any closer to be honest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruddick Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Since I registered I have been given 3 appointments for Bangkok hospitals, 1 for Sriracha and another 1 for Pattaya. I am over sixty and live in Chonburi City. By the time the first hospital contacted me I had already had my first jab of Astrazenac (via the BTCC). I cancelled the first appointment and did my best to inform them that I didn't need an appointment anymore, but the appointments kept coming. I was offered Astrazenac or Pfizer vaccine as a choice. They have stopped sending me appointments now. So in my case the website worked very well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickmondo Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 i received nothing from any of the 5 i registered with, until I registered with Medpark in Bkk. First Pfizer last week, 2nd first week in Sept. Yesterday i got an e mail, from a gmail address, claiming to be from Ministry of Foreign Affairs telling me to hit a link and confirm an appt for today somewhere....... of course, i did not hit the link, it was just a random name. but did reply to say i already had it somewhere else, just in case. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgMech Cowboy Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Yes, I received my 1st Pfizer vaccine injection via the expatvac registration last Thursday at Samitivej Sukhumvit hospital. I registered around 24 July. You can go to https://www.samitivejhospitals.com/page/ThailandIntervac to register if you have not previously done so. The expatvac website is still good to asfaik.

fersken Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 I was registered on August 2nd, and got my first shot with Pfizer yesterday in Nong Khai, second shot on September 13th 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaySmc Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 My experience with the expatvac website was similar to Klauskunkel's, except the day I received the appointment, I received 6 duplicates of the reservation. By that time after waiting a week and not hearing anything, I had also tried the Thailandintervac website and received an email appointment from Bangkok Hospital (Bangkok) within 3 days, and a confirmation, but no appointment from Bumrungrad until this past Friday (SMS message). So eventually I had multiple options, but had to wait a few weeks for two of them to get back with reservations.I'm in the over 60 group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expatvac went live Sunday 1st August. Plenty of older Pattaya based expats have either been vaccinated or have appointments at Central festival from the expatvac registration. I know people in both camps plus people under 60 who are still waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you mentioned it worked fine for you (and me) so unlikely there was a glitch in the site.

Crazy Noobie Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 I live here in Chiang Mai and I received an appointment for my first jab of Pfizer vaccine for tomorrow (wednesday). I didn't think I would get an appointment. Because after I registered I received an email saying I needed to upload my passport and a link would be sent to me. After a week of not receiving a link, I got ahold of them again and again they promised a link would be sent to me. Next thing, i received an email from them telling me the date & time of my appointment for my first jab of Pfizer. So I am super happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a text message on a Saturday telling me this Samitivej Hospital on Monday between 9-11 or 1-3pm. Drove up from Pattaya and got there at noon, no traffic, walked in and was taken care of immediately with Pfizer…..second on the 12th September. I would register anywhere you can…..you maybe surprised. Good luck people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I did my journey 100KM each way today and got my 1st Pfizer jab done, a good few hundred other Farang I saw and have to say, despite the last minute text, the process on arrival was well organised and fast and pleasant. Got follow up appointment for 2nd jab in 3 weeks now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
