Firefan Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Hi! I have happily used many of the coupon options in Ensogo (Thailand). Today got email from them with latest promotions - and surprised that they state, that from some April date - the deal page will only be in Thai... Living social purchase changing the rules? (I will work around it with Google Chrome translate but still weird....). Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dean999 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 (edited) Or learn Thai, you never know, it could come in usefull for other things as well. Edited March 21, 2012 by dean999 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beano2274 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 from the 20th April it will be in Thai only, bit of a shitter. Hear everyday that people need to use English more and then ensogo do this, mind you the standard of English on ensogo is not that fantastic, but acceptable.

vtjforyou Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Anyway who really wants to waste money when knowing how they work... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefan Posted March 22, 2012 Author Share Posted March 22, 2012 Dean; why would they also not want tourists or short term visitors to use their deals? Or simply people who are not as smart as you and have learned reading in Thai? they basically cut out even most long term expats - as I am guessing max 10% of those can READ Thai. Weird biz/marketing plan.... Must be related to Living Social buying them and their rules. Cheers! Or learn Thai, you never know, it could come in usefull for other things as well.

dantilley Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Or learn Thai, you never know, it could come in usefull for other things as well. Learn to read Thai just to be able to read Ensogo?!?! Would have to be a very fast crash-course to learn it sufficiently before April too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wana Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Basically the kind of thais smart enough to read english dont need bargain coupons anyway and everybody knows all the farang have too much money already so lets make sure they cant get the bargains also .......its a clever strategy to ensure rich thai and farang cant get any bargains Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A tourists or short term visitor probably doesn't even know about these discounts. So why should they care. Long term stay people, why do you not learn Thai. It is like living in England and not knowing English. Completly ignorant, your so called 10%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantilley Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Long term stay people, why do you not learn Thai. Doesn't matter why people do or do not learn Thai, Firefan's point is that the majority don't learn Thai - the reading anyway, so it seems strange for Ensogo to alienate all those people.

bkk4life88 Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 For all of you who are ripping expats who cant read Thai,would you trust your own Thai enough to spend money to follow rules written in Thai? If you are an avid user of Ensogo send their English speaking owners an email http://help.livingsocial.com/ . Rich Thais do use Ensogo everytime I have used Ensogo to try a new nice restaurant I wouldnt have tried otherwise I see it full of HiSo thais busting out their Ensogo vouchers.
