If you need a new ATM card for (your bank back at home) whilst in the LOS beware;

My bank sent it to me in Pattaya by DHL

So far so good; but the courier got the nearest person near my apartments to sign for it, it then spent hours propped up next to the mailbox, whilst I was in the local bar.

I checked on the DHL website and they are within their rights. Signature is meaningless and the package does not have to be given direct to the addressee.

I take it you have an overseas (back-home) address in the West, and then a buddy mails it to you by DHL? I managed to wait until my buddy could meet me in Perth.

Thanks for the tip.

Keep away from the bar's...

Thanks for the heads up on DHL.

Here is another one. If you have a large package sent to you via USPS, don't expect LOS Postal to take it to your place. It will sit at the main/local office forever, without word that it has arrived and opened for employee pickings. You better go down there to get it, quickly.
