Mino Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Someone ask me what to do, but I no have any answer, so I ask here: Friend of mine booked an apartment for him, wife and two kids. Talk through some applications with the owner (as told me) agreed for the place and also for pick up at the airport. When arrive noone was there and no apartment. Now they are in hotel waiting to find a room. They did not pay nothing: they can do something or it's just a bad story to forget quickly? Thank you.

This friend wanna make a report to the police, but I told him that it's useless as he did not pay nothing to the "owner". Am I right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Complained and got 3kbht discount towards my hotel. Just a bit inconvenient. Edited December 21, 2022 by BritManToo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's useless for him to report what happened at police as there are no money involved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I know it is what he told me: find this guy on social media, speak and agree for the place and pick up. But nothing happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stocky Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 No deposit paid, nothing lost, nothing to report - chalk it up to experience and move on. Where was this anyway, it's posted in the southern Thailand forum, was this Hat Yai?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
