Correct..couldn't have been spending much in the bars..one beer, a perv,and offski! Or he is a Thai Gogo Bouncer!

[natway09]

For that little amount of money they have got to have rocks in their

head . Just pay it & move on.

Maybe it is time to ban cheap airlines coming to Thailand.

Ianister, you miserable prick ,,,,, lucky you did not get a sore head.

Been drinking in Patpong for 28 years & never been ripped off but do I tip....... sure

Rubbish.  Learn how to write and come to Thailand if you want to make, a, credible literate comment.

Popped in there recently, what a wasted opportunity the owners have there, good location, plenty passing trade, but looks like they have not spent a single Baht on the place for years, even the front looks worn out (like the dancers) and tired. 1/4 million investment and they would see ten times the trade or more. After saying that, they still play great music, would hate that to change

Would like to hear the Tourist version of what happened

1,380 is not a large bill for 4 people.

So i smell BS from the management.

Anyway, attacking tourists, the place should be closed. 

I agree that any place where this type of issue occurs should have some form of closure order imposed on them irrespective of what happened. This may well be the only GGB on the street but it would not be missed.

Also anyone posting that they have never had any scamming or overcharging incident mustn't be going out. It isn't as bad as it used to be with the newer computerised billing, but short-changing, charging for drinks you never had etc etc does happen. Seems more prevalent in struggling places like this one too.

This particular place gets in the news often!

Doesn't seem like an unreasonable bill for 4 people in a gogo.

3 small beers each would cost that.

An incident I saw once with a Russian couple may explain that. They saw a sign saying 'Draft Beer 60 baht', then sat down and ordered 2 bottles . (By hand gestures and pointing at my SML). I somehow knew they were going to be surprised by the bill. When it arrived they complained and refused to pay rather aggressively,  their beers were untouched. I nearly stepped in to offer to buy them their drinks but the Thai manger gave up and let them pay a lesser amount.

170 baht a bottle is obviously fighting talk to some!

Being Scottish 170baht for a small beer is heart attack country for me.

 Jomptien, rather than Pattaya ?   Wasn't it the place a couple of years ago where one of the bargirls stabbed another one in a dispute over a punter ??

Yes.

 

And yes.

 

What's your point again?

How can you defend yourself with an ashtray? On the other hand, you could certainly use one to attack someone. 

Maybe the guy attacked him with a cigarette?

[Humpy]

But was the ashtray attached to a 2 foot metal stand with a heavy base ? !!!

Was not specifically making any point, other than, maybe, given the quantity of alternative venues of this nature, maybe this is one to avoid ?  I haven't been there, so I cannot of course be judgemental - I was merely pointing out the history. No axe to grind !  Sorry if I offended you.

Whats rubbish numpty? Learn how  to read!!! Ihave lived here for 14 years? You?

[KICHIKRISH]

1380 Baht for four people in a bar with ladies in waiting. If this is true, then I believe the Customers are wrong.
It does not take rocket science to figure this out.

Maybe they were already well oiled when they entered the GOGO Bar, when the Bill arrived they misread it or didnt understand it, who knows, the truth will never out here.

[ZAKY]

Drunk with a bill of Thb 1380 divided by 4? How come? What is the price of a beer bottle in a bar? 

 

[HLover]

Shame the scene was missed, a cold beer and rock and roll music in the background while these jagoffs displayed their Czechoslovakian bravado.

The same old story about Pattaya and the GoGo joints- eventually they will all be closed due to happenings like this ; lack of customers; and the continual crackdowns.  I remember when Pattaya was a fun town- now, just a shell of its former self.

It's not in Pattaya.  It's in Jomtien. That's the point. The headline is a lie. The incident happened in a GoGo bar in Jomtien not Pattya. It is deliberate deception to slander Pattaya and juice up the story!

Ashtray in the Gogo????? 

Isn't smoking banned inside?

 

What are the odds that the CCTV isn't working??? Which btw is also an offence!

CCTV footage is already online.  It shows the drunken customers pushing around the staff.  They seem quite intoxicated.

Does it show what the dispute is about by any chance, as there is no question that the dispute took place

No, the clip I viewed was as things had already escalated.

It's on Thai Facebook.

 whats overcharde for you ?? when you pay 100  for a beer?????

 

The good thing over pattaya is, in a little more than 30years in Pattaya, i was not ONCE overcharged.......... drunk or not NEVER

 

and NEVER any bigger issue

 

thats the good thing over pattaya

 

but to to a lack of income, due to evryday new crackdowns,lwas and enforcment, this maybe  will change  .......

less imcome= more sheeting,more violance,more ciminality,higher prices,and less fun

 

ihope all this bullshit will stop , but goverment not intrested, and due to social media more and more shit is comming

 

 

PS by the way i never had or run a Bar,,,,,but if so, their would be many many customer i would tick them something on the head for their low class beaviour , day by day!!

 

 

'The good thing over pattaya is, in a little more than 30years in Pattaya, i was not ONCE overcharged.'

 

Really? In thirty years? Must have been doing something right. Or your memory isn't what it once was.
