Thanks for all your replies. I think paying to get my money back would cost more than it's worth. I have learned my lesson and need to move on in life. Hopefully one day, if Karma is real it will come back to get him.
Have a good night everyone!

Very likely the DC owner's wife.
He was married with a Thai at the time, now they are not together and he's married a Westerner

On the paper work was only my name, it didn't mention I was direct etc. I think if I made a case of it it would cost more than the money I would get back so not worth it.
I just want to know now, if I think they may be doing something illegal with visa, work permit etc. Could I contact immigration and what should I say? I could contact the police also but don't know what they could do...

I put in some money into a scuba diving company about 4 - 5 years ago here in Thailand and I got my name on the company papers as a part-owner. A couple of years later the owner stopped contacting me, when I tried to get my money back he kept on making the same excuse 'we don't have anything to give you at the moment'. I checked with a lawyer and found the company I have my name on closed down (they owner never told me this) but he then started up a company with nearly exactly the same name and doing exactly the same trade, just this time without my name on the papers. He now never speaks to me, I contact his wife asking can he call me and she makes pathetic excuses.
Recently I saw they posted on their Facebook advertising a job offering 30,000 THB and month and they have a speed boat.... which really made my blood boil. I put in over 200,000 THB to the company and would be happy to get even 50,000 back. I reality I don't see a easy way to get my money back with a lawyer but I still contact them asking for them personally to give me something back. I really know that they have no intention to give me anything so want to know other options I could do....
I'm sure they have probably something dodgy/illegal going on with their company in terms of staff, work permits, visas or something things like that... so am thinking of asking them once more and telling them that I will be contacting immigration etc. if they ignore me again. Please could I ask for your advice on what things I could do/who I could contact to investigate into this company and things I could do to make trouble for them in case the are doing anything illegal? In case this helps: the owner is not Thai, he's British and his wife is a Westerner also.
I know I was stupid to trust these people and I've learnt my lesson so please don't call me an idiot etc., as I already know I am - I just am looking for some advise. I was only 20 years old when I put this money in to their company, the money was also given to me in a will which makes me feel even worse.

Just to make things clear, all important supporting documents like work contract, letters, etc., are in English. Just a few other documents that I thought may be useful to submit are in Thai;

Thanks for your feedback, I really appreciate it.
Documents like employer letter, bank info, sponsor letter, and most things are in English. It's just a few things in Thai like her son's birth certificate, ownership of her apartment, families ID cards.
Is her son travelling on the proposed trip, or is she using her son as a reason to return?
Why is she intending to submit copies of the families ID cards?
She's using her son for one of the reasons to return.
Not sure about her families ID and what they might help for, but we've got them just in case.

Only what happened to me, but both my partners chanote and tabien ban were not translated and there were no issues.
As theoldgit says, anecdotal evidence shows that official documents, such as those you mention, have been acceptable without translations.
For others, such as employers letters, I strongly recommend getting a translation.
Officially, this can be into English or Welsh, but I doubt that many translation bureaux in Thailand could translate them into Welsh; even if there is a Welsh speaker stationed in the entry clearance office at Bangkok! So I recommend English.

I would suggest you hire an agent if you need help with such basic questions

Applying for a UK visa for my girlfriend to come visit England with me. She has some things to submit like proof of owning an apartment but it's in Thai. Along with some other things like some of her families information.
Is it ok that some documents are in Thai? or does EVERYTHING need to be in English?
Many thanks!

The girlfriend and I plan to visit England in June, just wondering when we should apply for the visa? My friend said you should apply no earlier than 3 months before, is this about right?
Any info would help!
Thanks

It's a sad life if 'ideal happiness' is watching the World Cup!
Do you get invited to parties much?

- Before the match starts, guess the team you’re supporting’s startling line up: If you get this wrong you must down a pint.

England will not win the world cup because we didn't take our star player with us: EMILE HESKEY!

I'm going to Mulligans, Sukhumvit 11. It's not very big though so It may get packed.
I couldn't think of anything worse than being at Khao Sarn with the kind of travelers you get there at 5am. -
Anyone have any news on a bar that will be showing the England Italy match?

who cares as the world cup doesn't interest me but the generals do seem to be selective with the curfew.
"who cares as the world cup doesn't interest me"
So nobody cares just because it doesn't interest YOU?
Curfews come and go.....and so do soccer* matches. Plus there's the replays.

The world cup occurs every 4 years, it's not your average premier league game. And <deleted> replays - they are not the same.- 1

Abandoned, Derelict, Decaying Locations Around Thailand

A very cool thread! When I lived in England as a teen we would go urban exploring to abandoned sites; one place was an old location that was something to do with the military I heard, it was surrounded by a big fence and inside was many different buildings. There was security always patrolling there and we went one night to sneak in, I got loads of adrenaline sneaking around trying to be stealth, at one point we thought we saw a light shining through the window at us and s*** ourselves! Was so fun!!!
Is there any places in or near Bangkok that you recommend are fun to go into
