They got my details through an advert i'd placed on Bahtsold. It helps to be blunt with them and make sure they have NO illusions that cold calling won't work with you or they'll just pester you more.

The OP is clearly clueless on what a Pension is and what it aims to provide.

Oh he's from the UK ....... he's going to blow it now and if he lives into old age he's going to drift back home and live on welfare.

BERK !

..hardly a loser if you're getting reliable internet access @ 9mb for 200B/month...

You will only get the full 9mbs if no one else is using the connection. If all the other 9 people are using it then you will only get 0.9 mbs. Most of the time you would be getting something between the two.
This is what sharing is all about.

Come on, this is perpetual motion machine stuff: it just cant be done.

There are only 6 people in my village with wireless capability, 5 up and running now and very fast, i'll be the 6th and final. I'll get it for 200baht/month as opposed to TOT's 590+100baht line rental = 690/month saving me 490 baht every month (winner). The guy who is doing the wifi service has had to pay for the transmitter, tower which its mounted on and a transmitting license. He also has to pay tax on this income (which i've seen. all legit). So, he's a winner making a profit, i'm a winner saving money and the Thai government is a winner as the get a tax return making the only real loser the big mouth who didn't know the facts before opening his big mouth and that would be ..... you Darrel ! Get a life and stick to the opening question in future !

Another option may be going to your nearest city Amphur and seeing if they can help.
I once got a letter from the main amphur from Kanchanaburi confirming my address when my local amphur wouldn't issue one.
They even called my local amphur and told them to do their job properly in the future and lo and behold next time I needed the letter from my local amphur it was issued without hassle.

Hi guys, when the Thai wife did mine for me the first port of call was the 'tessabahn' office which had all the paperwork there. Needed my Thai wifes parents and the 'poo yai bahn' to attend as well. There was an interview about the usual... how long have you been here, parents name etc etc, copy of passport and they sent it off to the Amphur to process, about two weeks. I've asked since and the big chief at the tessabahn said that once they've issued the Amphur with the filled out paperwork they can't refuse (or ask for tea money).
