  1. we have exactly a problem like this occurring now in our small development where an angry old english guy has decided he won’t pay his CAM fees anymore ie Common Area Management fees and is in arrears around 500,000 so we have stopped maintaining garden outside his villa which he does now and also stopped garbage collection is about all we can do. he paid the previous 15 years to the management company but past 2 years ceased payment all the other owners are paying fortunately and maintaining development as many live here and some are rented out. we have handed everything over to our lawyers and they have filed case in court for full amount plus standard interest 7 pct. they are confident after prior discussions with other legal people in phuket the judge will rule in our favour obviously it’s cost our group a reasonable amount to do this but we are all happy to go ahead. a meeting between our lawyers and his lawyers ended up with his lawyer suggesting he pays or makes some offer to us and to continue paying as they explained to him their fees are going to be quite high also here created a precedence by paying previously under the purchase agreement CAM fees to the developer then when we changed to a management company. in the meantime he lives he we see him in restuarant and bars drinking most evenings. he has restricted access to the development as we put in a security barrier during daytimes and he has no security pass or card to enter so he needs to get off his motor bike and go to push a button to open security access and the guard in the evenings will not open the barrier for him. in the meantime he tries to sell his villa but it just look strange to real estate agents or prospective buyers about his access. court hearing continuing now.
  2. If you don’t have your own clubs have a look at phuketgolfclubhire.com or on facebook Phuket Golf Club Hire. Clubs charge anywhere between 1500-2000 a set per round but her rates are only thb500 per day. courses to play in order Red Mountain expensive but very scenic and golfers challenge Blue Canyon either Lakes or Canyon courses - Canyon is the championship course thereafter you have Laguna which i dont like as the fairways are very wet and soggy and they have small funny tricky greens, then you have Loch Palm which is sister course to Red Mountain its been redesigned and is a nice course to play a very scenic course also is Mission Hills but the greens here are not as good as other courses but the views out to the Andaman sea and island is stunning, thereafter last one is Phuket Country Club stay away they allow thai players and groups to play nothing from a 5 to 6 ball and if you get stuck behind them they wont be courteous and let you through. good luck benefit you do have coming now is that green fees are very cheaper and at Blue Canyon for 1500 it includes buggy and caddie booking fee so you only have caddie tip at end of play thb 500....
  3. we have one veterinary practise that is a blatant rip off here in Phuket, they over prescribe medication and literally tell you your pet is going to die. we have 3 dogs (more now but back then 3) and a few cats my wife and i couldn't believe the vet bills each month over 30,000 per month... we stopped using them took the dogs one at a time to another very well known vet clinic and asked them to do blood tests and showed them the pills they were on. basically in short all but one pill medication was need by one dog the others they told us to stop giving.. we are not the only ones that have commented about this vet clinic ... as my wife rescues kittens and finds them new homes (over 300 since covid started) we share the work between 2 or 3 vets and they have all been excellent and not over charging and the occasional No Charge for that ....
