  1. Caught this virus from my Thai partner about 10 days ago, she has quickly recovered but mine won't let go. I assume it's some kind of flu strain, but without any cold or cough, just a bad headache and achey bones. A couple of the side effects are wanting to sleep all day and chronic bloating, so absolutely no appetite. Anyone had anything similar? If it doesn't clear up within a few days a hospital visit will be in order.
  2. My Thai partner had a week in bed, no cough or head cold, but just achey bones, bad headache, and wanting to sleep all the time. I thought I'd ecaped because I had no symptoms a week after she was back on her feet. No such luck, now I'm laid up with the same symptoms.
  3. Have you tried this? I've been told once the parcel has been opened the courier will refuse to take it. If the goods don't match the description you then have to instigate the return policy with Lazada. No driver is going to take back an opened package.
  4. Goes without saying it has to be something you ordered. They aren't going to refund for the COD I received yesterday.
  5. No different than COD. Once I've paid and the product doesn't meet my expectations I can return it and get a refund from Lazada, which I've done a few times without a problem.
  6. No courier driver will allow you to open a package unless you pay first. Once you've opened it you've bought it.
  7. Make an offer.
  8. Yeah, already admitted that.
  9. Already explained why. I can't help you with understanding it.
  10. I wasn't complaining, I accepted full responsibility for accepting and paying for something I hadn't ordered, hence the "I should have known better". I ignored your rudeness because I know some people just take pleasure in belittling others.
  11. I'm a creature of habit.
  12. Woulda, coulda, shoulda. Don't know how many times I have to admit to it being my fault, but I will still continue to use COD. I'm out of pocket a whopping 280 baht, my god I'll have to start a gofundme page.
  13. Because it works for me. I've literally had hundreds of items from Lazada delivered this way without a problem. Today's scam is nothing to do with Lazada.
  14. I'll say it once more. Been using COD to pay Lazada for at least 10 years and never had a problem. This scam is on me and my curiosity. My Thai partner told me not to accept the package, but I did anyway. Mea Culpa.
  15. I take full responsibilty for allowing myself to be scammed. As I said, I knew I had ordered nothing of the value of the item, but went ahead and accepted it anyway. I will continue to use COD for Lazada, but obviously won't accept anything I haven't ordered again.
  16. I have been using COD exclusively with Lazada for more than 10 years and never had a problem, My common sense told me not to accept the package, but my curiosity got the better of me. I thought maybe it was something I'd ordered some time ago and either forgot about or had cancelled, but fool me once......
  17. I order quite often from Lazada, in fact awaiting three small items at the moment, nothing worth more than 130 Baht. Courier just turned up and said has a parcel for 280 baht, but I have ordered nothing of that amount. Against my better judgement I paid the courier and opened the box and found a grubby used nylon jacket, worth maybe 20 baht. I don't know where these scammers get my name and address, but lesson learned and they won't catch me again.
  18. Not my Thai partner, she loves it, especially braised shanks.
  19. Cat Person. When Margot, a college sophomore goes on a date with the older Robert, she finds that IRL Robert doesn't live up to the Robert she has been flirting with over texts. A razor-sharp exploration of the horrors of dating. Thought this was very good.
  20. Thank god my taste buds peak at 399 baht.
  21. I don't like rats either, but I have no wish to make another creature suffer unnecessarily.
  22. Had a similar problem a few years back. As fast as I was setting spring traps I was catching rats, refused to use those sticky traps, that's just too brutal. As a last resort tried scattering a few mothballs around the roof cavity, rats disappeared and never had a problem since.
  23. I'm sure they don't want them all in orphanages.
  24. Not much good if the owners are there for 30 years.
