I know people who have been warned for doing it

if a dual national uses the UK passport to book the ticket they could have problems entering Thailand, they could insist on treating you as a British national which would require visa on entry.

Best to book the ticket using Thai nationality to avoid any nonsense at Thai immigration.

If the name is different, book the ticket in the Thai passport name or you may have problems using the Thai passport to enter

@Gordon ******

I don't think so they use it routinely, I just shared the information to raise awareness and see if others had been affected.

@Paul *******

Yes I saw this last week and noted Kasikorn bank was supposed to be ok! I'm just checking because as I said, I know of someone who has had a refusal from Kasikorn last week.

@John *******

Not only are you wrong , you're wrong at the top of your voice.

@John *******

Not really bud, what you pay in has no relation to what you can possibly get out (say you live until 95 etc ) there is no fund invested in the stock market its money taken directly from the tax payer each week, I don't like it anymore than you, but the fact is by law it's classed as a benefit.

A labour advisor close to Rachel Reeves (Edward Troup, ex HMRC big wig ) one of his quotes was " the codgers have got all the money and they need to be paying more" has recommended that access to the old age pension should be means tested.

@John *******

I'm afraid your wrong, apparently it is classed as a benefit in the UK, it's recently been clarified during the rumours that Labour are considering means testing it. Google it you'll see.
