elektrified Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Effective 01/01/2017 the cost for postage is now 18 Baht for rong tabien (registered post). Be sure to put an 18 Baht stamp on your 90-day report as well as the SASE for the return. It was 13 or 15 Baht for years, now 18 Baht. I just got mine back and fortunately my postman advanced the money for me and told me about the increase. Incredibly I got mine back in 72 hours this time. Don't know how it's even possible! In fact it happened so fast that the return tracking doesn't even register on the Thai Post website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMBob Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 I'd guess it doesn't matter whether you use the old Airport Road address (with or without the Moo 3 addition) or the Promenada address as the Post Office will deliver all mail addressed to Chiang Mai Immigration to (of all places!) Chiang Mai Immigration. Much ado about nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For 99.9 % of us they do a good job I'm happy to hear you have had success. I'm also happy to hear that you know how the 99.9% feel. Did you take a poll to get that conclusion? I have expressed some of my past issues with the Thai postal service on other threads and won't be repeating myself. With them being a 'manual' process and I'm sure with limited resources, they don't do a real bad job. However I am happy to be able to make payments like my TOT, water, and electricity in person easily as I wouldn't trust the postal system with any time sensitive or payment mailings. But hey, that might be just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you considered direct debit from your Thai bank? Sure eliminates having to do such 'in person.' Never have experienced any problems with direct debit in over a decade. Postal system? There are still birthday cards and anniversary cards I sent from the States -- that have never arrived. For credit cards, etc sent from my mail forwarder in the States -- I've used DHL without any problem. Not cheap -- but the DHL driver goes the extra mile to locate us in our backwater location. And now, we're on first named basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And now, we're on first named basis. Actually I avoid all online banking as well as using my debit card for anything other than extracting THB from the ATM. I use nothing but cash. As for paying those utilities in person, no big deal for me. It occurs once a month. I generally pay TOT at the Promenada when I make a monthly run to Rimping. Most are aware that the Promenada is like a 'ghost mall' so there has never once been a queue for me. As for electricity payment, there's nearly two 7-11s on every street in CM so stopping once a month while I'm out and about isn't an issue. The water is actually paid here at my mooban. A guys comes around once a month to collect. If I'm not home then I'll stop by the main office on my way in or out of the neighborhood. I agree, anything of importance for mailing I use DHL or Fedex. I have also sent and been sent numerous things over the years and they have yet been received. Hmmmmm I guess you are not one of that 99.9% group Sparkles surveyed... :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
