Bored of Bangkok... Any advice to an alternative place to live?
Op should move to Pattaya, Jomtien, Pratumnak or the dark side. I live in Pratumnak and go to both central Pattaya and Jomtien daily. I wouldn't move to another country until your options are up here -

Thai girlfriend - DWP PoL form for UK pension.
Hi folks, I know that many UK ex-pats have to deal with this every 2 years or so, but this concerns my THAI girlfriend who is in receipt of a small UK pension as a legacy from her late British national husband. About 2-3 years ago she got her village headman to sign the form and DWP rejected it. I suspect that this was because the headman was also her brother, the form wasn't stamped and may have even contained Thai language written by her brother. I rectified the problem for her by paying 1,000 baht to have a lawyer complete the form in English and authenticate it with an official stamp. I then, because of the delay which had already occurred, paid a further 1,000 baht to the Thai post office to effect a guaranteed speedy return. This was most annoying since, her pension payments amount to less than 1,000 baht per lunar month! I have read a similar thread on this site BUT it relates to UK nationals and NOT to Thai nationals. Does anyone know of a similar situation to my girlfriend's one, and can they advise on the following: How can I avoid a 1,000 baht visit to a lawyer? If I can effect the return in a timely manner, what method/price of postage would they suggest? In the other thread to which I earlier referred, some respondents have stated that a stamp was not necessary but, I am pretty sure that the form does in fact, state that the stamp is required. Many thanks. -
