Chiang Mai Karaoke Venue Returns 150,000 Baht After Billing Dispute A Chiang Mai karaoke bar refunded 150,000 baht to a British customer following allegations that excessive charges were made to his and his wife’s credit cards. The man and a British friend had visited the venue after drinking elsewhere, with his Thai wife claiming staff prevented them from leaving before her husband later returned home the following morning. The couple discovered that several payments had been processed within approximately 30 minutes, including transactions allegedly sent to personal accounts. The bar initially maintained that the bill covered food, drinks and the services of multiple hostesses charged by the hour. Management eventually returned the full amount after the dispute gained widespread attention, although members of the public have urged police to continue investigating the venue.
