Just wondering if I entered the UK on my British passport and left  on my Thai passport if they would actually know I had left. 

Do they check passport details? 

no, and even if they did what to happen?    nothing. If on OAP non sanctionable

I have 8 years to go but will they check my address by phoning me there?

My bank account is at my mother's address and never been contacted by them apart from statements.

Its been stated time after time, its a contact address that is all, no nothing.  All my contacts are in UK too, good way to go.  They never phone, just one letter a year informing of your pension rise, make sure that letter is not returned, they will send a proof of life if returned, might temporary suspend oap until they know you are alive ,but will refund eventually when u make contact
