On arrival, he found that the the small hotel was exactly as described. Gosh, the photos in the booking.com site even showed the pharmacy on the street-level floor. https://www.booking.com/hotel/th/lek-lek-samui.html?aid=304142&label=gen173nr-1FCAEoggI46AdIM1gEaN0BiAEBmAExuAEXyAEP2AEB6AEB-AECiAIBqAIDuAKIjbKxBsACAdICJDg1ZDQyYmJmLWJiOWYtNDEyZS1hZDMxLTYzODVmN2MxMTJhNdgCBeACAQ&sid=22daedac9b348c080a8b7e9da823b966&dist=0&group_adults=2&group_children=0&hapos=1&hpos=1&no_rooms=1&req_adults=2&req_children=0&room1=A%2CA&sb_price_type=total&sr_order=popularity&srepoch=1714194103&srpvid=587123558812008c&type=total&ucfs=1&activeTab=main

I know this sounds crazy, but couldn't you just, you know, pay the ticket? Problem solved.

OP had a SWIFT sent via Wise. That was real live GBP sent across borders and deposited in his Thai bank account, via the SWIFT system, not utilizing the lower-cost Wise alternative. Not a Wise choice.

Krungthai fees: Fees for receiving money from overseas transfer The Bank fee charges at 0.25% of the total amount transferred, minimum rate at 200 baht but not exceeding 500 baht You were charged the Wise fee, the SWIFT fee, the international transfer fee, and received the lower Krungthai currency exchange rate. Next time have them send baht to your Krungthai account. Small Wise fee, no swift fee, no overseas transfer fee (the money comes from Wise local Thai accounts), and better exchange rate.

If they used Wise to send a SWIFT, then they have a Wise account, so they could have simply sent the money to your Thai bank using Wise. Wise would deduct a ~ 3.50-pound fee and then convert pounds to baht using the market rate. Then baht would have been deposited into your Thai account from their local account. 500 pounds = 22,750 baht https://wise.com/gb/send-money/

That's strange. The line from the tank splits......one branch goes to the pump then to the house, the other goes into the ground to unknown? With the pump on, does it cycle for all faucets and toilets? If you turn the pump off, do you get any flow anywhere?

I'm positive this will end well.

He's on a 3-wheel e-scooter, not necessarily a disability device. Those can move upwards of 40 km/h. He blew through the intersection without stopping. Idiot. White line/no white line..........no matter. Bicycles and trikes and e-scooters should never assume right-of-way.

Digging under the house is the last thing you want to do. Install a cutoff valve somewhere before the line goes under the house, or between the tank and the pump to isolate the leak first.

That's expensive. Over US$9 billion Impressive? The Kunming-Vientenne high-speed rail line is 1022 km long, built on schedule in 5 years with 62 km of bridges and 198 km of tunnels. What's impressive is the total cost of US$6 billion. Hub of "Anything you can do, I can keep studying by committee for decades!"

Do you have a shutoff valve on the line from the tank to the pump? Shut off the outflow from the tank to confirm water level drop.

Post a photo of the water tank with piping to the pump and then into the house. The water flows thru the supply line outside the tank up to the top where it enters thru a float-operated valve. The water cannot flow back out to the street. Turn off all taps in the house. Does the water pump cycle? If so, then leak under the house. If not, and the water level in the tank drops, then you probably have a crack in the bottom of the tank and the water is draining into the ground.

Wise will send GBP via SWIFT. https://wise.com/help/articles/2977936/sending-gbp-to-countries-outside-of-the-uk?origin=related-article-2553074

Gosh! I don't know. I've never paid a hooker to sit across from me and drink a watered-down fake cocktail.

Well, there ya go! They sent Euros via SWIFT to your Thai bank. Thus they were charged the SWIFT fee, AND they got the local Thai bank currency conversion rate, NOT the advertised Wise baht rate.

What is the "justice" he is entitled to before the investigation is concluded?

Whoever sent you the money deducted 25 Euro. You'll have to ask them why. Did they send a Euro SWIFT from their bank to Wise?
