 My opinion counts as much as yours. 

 

Do Thailand give pensions to there 'ex citizens' who leave and go set up and live abroad? Do they hell as. 

 

You got a cushy deal going on, and won't admit it. You are a complete disgrace. 

 

For British residents, most of that pension will be spent in the UK, so it's less of a burden on the country. However, when you are sending it to people living abroad and for them to spend that in other countries - forget it. 

 

 

 

 

Troll!

 

What happens in Thailand (where no national insurance contributions are made) is irrelevant as far as UK state pensions are concerned.

 

 

Now....crawl back under your bridge.

Total rubbish. OAP is dependent on contributions. Where does it say a UK pension can only be spent in the UK? Dual citizenship nonsense? Huh? What are you talking about? Freebies? A pension is not a freebie. Your gratuitous right wing nonsense is.

I didn't understand the dual nationality bit either. And as for most of these guys in Pattaya didn't pay any NICs. Well they would have any state pension if they made no NICs. To be getting a state pension they must have made NICs.

  Is this you ?            its on record           Transam stated    .......                                                                                      "  I know of three people that were found out living in LOS claiming their pension as living in the UK. None went to court...Why, because the UK gov had proof which would be daft to contested in a court of law..If they lost the case it's big money.."

    Transam stated                     " Two paid 1000 quid gov fine and had to pay back all the over payments. The third (my friend) did not have to pay a fine because he proved he had brain damage and his UK sister handled all his paperwork and she did not know of the Reciprocal Agreement thing regarding LOS, he still had to pay back I think 8 years over payment... "   

 

        Is this truthful ?  I know not.   You later admitted it was not State Pension,"something else" you state.  No £1000 fine  either.   DWP regulations state Non Sanctionable  for state pensioners, but obv uou (only you ) know difference

 

  No 8 years,6 years max.  It was sickness benefit, sprinkling of Pension Credit, solid hogwash,attempting to make out it was state Pension

He's not been along then to reply to this, perhaps he's had a bit of selective memory loss, to be a liar you need a good memory, seems he has neither, just a Billy Bullsh!tter, he regularly gets put in his place on here, and replies with silly little emojis.
