Have visited many foreclosed properties and normally the residents are still there whist the house is being sold from under them. Grim and awkward The house they went to wasn't the foreclosed property. That is the whole point of the article. So your comment is irrelevant.

Mr Derek Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 I heard there was no number or name on the house. Isn't that a legal requirement so that police/emergency services can find it? If they didn't display a number, it will not help their legal case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phetphet Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Unless the bank gave the wrong address to the contractor, it's not really the bank's fault, but said contractor. But. As others have said. Most banks in the west would be jumping over themselves to recompense the offended parties, along with a profuse apology and probably an investigation to try and prevent it happening again. Perhaps the bank's official is worried that any compensatioon would be taken out of his salary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave0206 Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Since " saving face and defamation is very strong"" in Thailand can you imagine how home owners would feel being labelled broke and being wrongfully locked out of own home with neighbours looking down on them go defamation route against the bank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with that one. The bank in question should be named and appropriately shamed! Undoubtedly when they are and there is a public outcry there will be loads of Wai-Ing and flower bouquets and fruit baskets all around. 1) Would the bank care at all? 2) Under the Thai law....defamation springs to mind a) Bank would cue for 4 million baht, which they would get. b) On top of it, t o make an example surely they would be granted the right. to seize the property 3( What is it you do not understand: It was not intentional ????????
