We're all 'working people'. Stop the patronizing attitude that just because people come from semi-developed countries it's ok for them to cheat.

If a cafe can wrongly charge 12 baht to one person for one 'free' coffee, they can do it for other items, to other people, on other days, which in a year adds up to significant amounts.

I've used the Coffee app for the reward points for a while and never had problems. But at the weekend I used the loyalty reward points to get a coffee from the branch on Sukhumvit After finishing the the drink, they brought a bill for the 'service charge' on the initial coffee price. No actual money was exchanged for the one 'free' coffee but I had to pay 12 Baht service charge. This has never happened before in any branches of the cafe when using their reward points. It also makes no sense to add a service charge to something that's 'free'. There are no mentions of this in their app terms and conditions. What are the legalities surrounding this? Has anyone had a similar experience with this company.

They should start with Pattaya and some of the big shots there who think the laws don't apply to them 'because it's Pattaya'.

We can't post the real reason. This forum doesn't allow.

Anybody who has experienced the food in Suvarnabhumi's 'Miracle Lounge' can testify that this survey is nonsense.

They're not 'lured'. They go there willingly and knowing it's illegal because - surprise surprise - they want to earn more money. I have no sympathy with them and when Abdul starts treating them bad, it should not be the responsibility of the Thai Embassy and the taxpayer to bring them home.

Another Thai with their head in the sand who believes their little kingdom is the centre of the earth and who hates being told otherwise. The truth is that Thailand will be a semi-developed dump for another few decades at least.

Passengers having their legs chopped off by the travelators and fliers smuggling live animals onto planes probably doesn't help. Those things and the multi-billion dollars of corruption that goes hand-in-hand with state-run airports in Thailand.

Thai cops overpowered by a bunch of screeching men in frocks. Typical of the pathetic native police as soon as they're faced with the slightest conflict instead of having their boots licked while being handed cash.

Ordinarily it would take a generation or two before the country changes. The current graduates who are reasonably intelligent and open minded would replace those in senior positions in all walks of life. But in Thailand, the army and police are given the best jobs in any influential positions. Usually because they bribe their way up the ladder. Everything in Thailand for the last 70 years has been about the army retaining power. Move Forward knew this and it's why they wanted to reduce the power of the military.

A rare commodity here.

Why doesn't she report it to the police and not social media?

Emirates is helped by the low fuel costs in the UAE but regardless of that, they are still an amazing airline. They have a decent air miles program and website that's easy to use. Thai air miles are a joke, just like Bangkok Air. Spend a million baht and we *might* give you a free bag of nuts.

Nothing will change until a Westerner with an executive level career in the aviation industry is hired at Thai Air and AOT. Not some room IQ army generals or do-nothing Thais who've paid for promotions.

How can they 'allegedly' be seen doing it. The video is pretty clear.

This lawyer should start a political party called Move Backwards, with a policy to slowly reverse time to the Ayutthaya period, wear silk sarongs and go to war with Burma riding on war elephants. It will actually be popular with a lot of Thais.

Three hours will be enough to check in, go through security and passport control and have a coffee before the flight.

Congratulations on recycling a story from three years ago.

Pita is a threat to the establishmen-archy. They will show no mercy. But they will do it in the typically two-faced cowardly Thai way and appear to kindly smile while plotting to seal his fate.

It's too Thai-centric to be considered an international sport. Plus it's dull AF.

They are able to but unwilling to. It would require time, money and effort to tackle the problem. Plus it would cause higher costs for big agribusiness and ultimately the consumer. Every problem in Thailand , literally every one of them, comes down to laziness and greed.

The monks were probably enjoying the view.

The Chinese are the most conceited race on the planet. As for their cuisine, it shouldn't even be fed to dogs.

Perhaps with Thailand's cannabis shops, ladyboys, goo bars, beer, all-night parties, endemic corruption and simple-minded populace, they didn't think they were doing much wrong by sunbathing on a patch of grass.
