Did you send by registered mail or regular airmail? I need to send some birthday cards, usually when I send them around this time of year, it's 70 baht or something and under 15 days. Link to comment

Thinking about it though.................theres no other way of doing it there is, UPS or DHL, but expensive for such a weight. Post by sea would be cheapest, but longer. Link to comment
MartinL Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Sent 2 letters 'lohng tabien' from Thailand > UK on 13/6. Letter 1; Left Thai 17/6, Arr. UK. 15/7, Del. 16/7. >>> 29 days in transit. Letter 2; Left Thai 16/6, Arr. UK 7/8, Del. 10/8. >>> 53 days in transit. Looks like there are long holdups while in transit from one country to the next. Link to comment

I think your letter has arrived, it just hasn't been processed in BKK. I phoned the Royal Mail and they confirmed my last package had left the UK but it took 22 days to track as arrived. Seems like they just leave them to sit for 3 weeks. Maybe new Covid procedure? 1 Link to comment

Having had no mail for at least two months I went up to the post office yesterday morning. They produced half a dozen items, some dating back to April. I used to think the Thai Post Office was quite efficient, but now they're totally unreliable. 1 Link to comment

Thats the only post I get on a regular basis and it hasn't stopped. Why are you receiving it by MAIL on paper for which trees have been cut down, air polluted by the numerous vehicles used in it's delivery to you. Why not just go online and click PAPERLESS. You can then access it anytime you want not just once a month. 3 Link to comment
