nomad2019 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 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 ???????????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timendres Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I would get your partner out of there. No way I would leave her alone in that place. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacessit Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surelynot Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) 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. Edited April 15, 2020 by Surelynot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SidJames Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 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% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's not, he's got a lot of explaining to do with immigration, and no time to deal with you. Edited April 16, 2020 by Shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SidJames Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoutman360 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigz Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 He must have seen the mess you made in his condo and added a final cleaning charge to be safe. Nothing wrong with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
