anon537687643 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 I was in a food court MBK 6th Floor waiting to top up card to purchase meal and in front was a lady of Asian origin, clearly not Thai as she wasn’t sure of her Thai money value! Anyway she handed over 1000 baht after looking at various notes and was give a card value shown up as 100 baht . She just accepted and walked away! I looked at the cashier with a stern face and said “Ning Loi” as I handed my note bill! Incidentally there were no receipts issues there!

tonray Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 She likely did not give the cashier enough time to return her change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dotpoom Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I went to Makro yesterday with the Mrs. The change was 100 Bt. short, (it was 250 Bt. instead of 350 Bt.) We pointed this out to the cashier...she didn't dispute that she had given us 250 Bt. but insisted that was correct change. We did the calculations on our fingers in front of her and she agreed the change was 100 Bt. short. She gave it to us.....After I walked away for the second time from the till area I had another look at the receipt....and thete it was....immediately under the check out total, in small numbers is the... change due. Glad I seen it...no more will it be necessary to make sure my nails are manicured when shopping there..Just mentioned this for people who didn't know it, like myself. So, it's easy to check your change by just glancing at the last fugures on the rceipt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluetongue Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 So the only thing I remain confused about is why the stern look and say ning loi? I'm not sure the cashier would have understood either, is ning loi your way of writing 100 or would it be neung roi or loi neung? Were you rousing on her in some obscure way?

curiocity Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 They try this all the time on me. Every time, they act as if nothing had happened and they didn't know what I wanted. So I tell them in Thai that I'll have to talk to their boss. The change is then handed out immediately. One time the lady next to her would tell her to just give the change to 'that idiot'. I told them in Thai that assuming I'd be too stupid to notice would make them be really stupid. So save the situation, I gave them a smile. Both of these ladies are now all smiles every time I show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyonesock Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I always take the opportunity to change 1000 baht notes when i am in Tops,Rimping,7/11 etc thus enabling me to hand small notes around when shopping at smaller outlets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
