April 15, 20205 yr KoiWe took out 3 month plan on condo. Russian agent has been inside the condo without our consent not only once. Pulled him and he denied it. Then he asking now that we pay full 3 mths rent upfront but before he said it was to be paid month by month.plus 1500 baht for final cleaning bill but thats not on contract. Hes not a pleasant person at all, to the point of trying to be intimidating. My pRtnwr thinks he will try keep deposit on her as im going home next week, she scared stay here herself for next couple months. Does he charge the electric and water and how can i check it. If he wants to play hardball then ill not be paying him this months rent, or electric, he can keep the damn 7k deposit. What rights do i have. What rights does he have. I mean its thailand and i think he thinks he can overstep the mark with me. Best ????????????????
April 15, 20205 yr Popular Post sorry for your problems... this type of thing does not go away.. if me, I would just leave. People trying to be intimidating are no fun to have in your life... good luck to you. he should be happy to have a tenant at this time...
April 15, 20205 yr I agree with kenk24 , I would just leave so the robbing sob's dont get there grubby little hands on your cash. When you dwal with people like this you wont win, they are just robbing liars
April 15, 20205 yr I would get your partner out of there. No way I would leave her alone in that place.
April 15, 20205 yr You could try calling in the Tourist Police, and having your partner explain the problem to them. My betting is he will suddenly become polite if he knows they are around.

April 15, 20205 yr That is a grim and stressful situation. I agree with the above. Get out and cut your losses. A hard lesson learnt. Go through well established agents next time.
April 15, 20205 yr Give immigration a shout. He's working so he'd better have the right status. He'll be properly fined if he's illegal & if your missus calls it then she gets 5%

April 15, 20205 yr they don't make ruski landords like Jerzei Balowski anymore... losing 7K is a cheapest way towards peace of mind
April 16, 20205 yr Author What rights does he have to throw me out ? What rights do we have to stay ? Who does the electric & water bill ? Does anyone know...im not running anywher, yra i can hold my own but my partner is thai and these people would rather pay up to avoid confrontation, i told her i wasnt paying him rent and would run up rennt so he could stuff the deposit but she wont have it.

As we are in Thailand it's anyones guess as to what your rights are (even if they were written down). Meter readings for water and electricity should have been recorded (photographed) on the day you moved in and the rate to pay agreed in your contract. I would seriously reconsider the idea of 'holding your own' when dealing with people from, shall we say, certain nations.

If he's not, he's got a lot of explaining to do with immigration, and no time to deal with you.
April 16, 20205 yr The Thai cops & immigration will take a very very dim view of a foreign national behaving in a way that leaves a Thai lady afraid & feeling threatened whether or not he has a work visa. No one like a bully.
April 16, 20205 yr Change the locks ASAP. This will ensure he is kept out and you are safe from him locking you out. When you move out, switch the original locks back. I have done that and I even told my landlord because I knew she didn't care. When I moved out, I gave her the keys. That is an honest landlord for you.
June 18, 20205 yr He must have seen the mess you made in his condo and added a final cleaning charge to be safe. Nothing wrong with that.
