Payment Of Utility Bills

[PETERTHEEATER]

I've read somewhere that household utility bills can be paid at 7-11 stores.

How does it work?

[armortec]

yes you can. Just bring along your bill. They need to scan the barcode.

Ah. So it's all done by computer linking by using their Point Of Sale terminals.

Surely they make a charge for this service?

Heard that some of the utility companies refuse the 7-11 receipt as proof of payment? Anybody heard of this? Cheers!

If they are allowing 7-11 to accept the money and process their bills. Can't see how they could refuse to accept them as proof of payment. Surely would be same as paying at bank and other places listed on back of some bills as options.

I have paid electricity bills and telephone bills there no problem. They don't accept if bill over due date, maybe that's where some problems have arisen??

yep 10 baht per bill charge, you need to get to 7-11 within a few days of recieving the bill otherwise they will turn you away.

most bills can be paid at 7-11, check the back of each bill you get

You need to look for 7-11 that has 'Counter Service' sign - some branches do not have it. You can also find 'Counter Serivce' some place else that is not 7-11. Many cell phone shops also have this service or you can also find the counter at some Lotus Express, just look for the 'Counter Service' sign or you may also use 'Pay Point' counter

Also make sure you pay the bill on time since these service counters do not accept an overdue bill.

You can also pay most bills on an ATM mashine if you have a bank account here. Not sure if the charges are less than at 7-11

Thanks posters. I currently pay through the bank but moving to a new house in the provinces I will need to pay through a Counter Service.
