Fair point about the real fraudsters but if you are paying your taxes in the UK why shouldn't you be entitled to NHS treatment and pension increases?  With the upcoming changes to non-dom status, this will get even more complicated.

Because its illegal and therefore fraud.

The state pension is a benefit. Any pensioner has every right to move to Thailand and receive the benefit. They are not parasites.

Not the annual state pension upgrade and not free access to the NHS if they are Thailand residents. That's fraud

Are you Keir Starmer the granny harmer??

 

The problem with the UK is mass immigration from the third world. 

 

Not some old fella on a pension. Put The Daily Telegraph down. 

Are you really one of the many benefit fraudsters from the UK claiming to be a UK resident whilst living off UK state benefits illegally in Thailand? Really?

I wonder how many sphincters here on AN  tightened up reading this from the Mirror:

 

The UK Government website says a British citizen may still be able to claim some benefits even if they travel or move abroad, or even if they already live abroad. But there there are several instances where it is classified as fraud if you have benefits paid to you while abroad, which can include.

• Not telling office that pays your benefit you’re going abroad, even if it’s just for a visit
• Deliberately not reporting a change in your circumstances while abroad, like buying a property, working, or claiming a pension or benefit from another country
• Being dishonest in order to get benefits, like continuing to claim the pension or benefit of someone who has died overseas

Why would the UK govt fund anyone living outside the UK?

This should be banned. It's far too generous. If you leave the UK and go live abroad, pensions should be banned. Go get money from the government from the country you moved to - tough luck if they aren't so generous.

 

I have an uncle who lives in Canada, never been back to the UK for 20 years. Collects a pension, comes back to the UK for free health care, optician and dentist appointments. Then get's free hearing aid batteries (worth thousands). Before flying back.

 

Utterly disgusting the sheer waste the UK government does. 

There are rules against this. You have to prove that you are returning permanently to get NHS assistance. If your uncle is gaming the system then he shouldn't be. 

 

State Pension is based on contributions. If you have made sufficient contributions you are entitled to claim the pension regardless of your geographical whereabouts. That's the system. This benefit, entitlement, whatever you want to call it is based on how much you have contributed. It is not free. The pension only starts if you have contributed 10 years and is then pro rata.

Impressive, since the right to benefits ceases when you leave the Country.

I know none on benefits.

Either they're lying or you are.

 

The right to a pension isn't dependent on where you live,  although annual increases are. I think most other benefits stop if you leave the UK, although I haven't checked them all.

Many Brits i meet who live in Thailand, are on some sort of benefits from the generous UK, more so after Covid. Absolute parasites. Then they pontificate on muslims..

 

Awful. 

"Absolute parasites. Then they pontificate on muslims.."

Do you mean the Parasites that enter the UK Illegally every single day on Dinghy's!
Or the "Parasites" that are already there infesting the city's and towns, living off the benefits that hard working English Pensioners who have already have already paid into the system over many years, and are therefore eligable to claim what is rightfully theirs to claim! 

Unike some of the resident scum taking advantage of an overly generouse wealfare system that is seriously faulty and needs scrapping!
