The new arrangements for UK citizens to get a proof of income letter is to apply to Bangkok with payment in the form of a "Money order" which it says you get at the Post Office.

Has anyone any experience of getting a money order? Do you just go to any post office, give them the cash and they give you a money order? Is it like buying a postal order from a UK post office in the old days?

Any help appreciated as my Thai to explain within the post office is insufficient !! ( Yes, I know, I should have learned Thai, my fault I didnt!!)

yes, yes, yes

just do it

Are these T'land Postal Money Orders widely known and accepted by vendors here? I would like to use one instead of PayPal from vendor in Bangkok.

Any good info?

yes, yes, but only the vendor you want to do business with can answer the last ?
