I will not hold my breath but I will continue to follow this story with interest. I won't hold my breath either that anyone gets prosecuted or buyers get their money back. This case will take many many years, typically of Thai justice where big money is involved. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post inzman Posted October 28, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted October 28, 2015 The buyers will never see retribution. This country has a history of protecting the rich. And the developers are rich. Never ever buy off plan. Have you seen the fiasco they call waterfront in Pattaya. Haha 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirocco Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 ah! damn! But thank you for this early response. buyers have they taken counsel, they made a down payment? Is that the lawyer was busy he has files or left a Thai buyer do all the legwork. I think in Hua Hin, it is more than 3 years since this case began.

sirocco Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Good evening, I restart the subject. Can we know the result of this case? Thank you to those who have information. This is not entirely irrelevant: there was a "lawyer" section and apparently it was deleted. The problem of Hua Hin still persists and the condo's attorney is to absent subscribers, except for the remunerations. A big thank you to all.

sirocco Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Thank you Xylophone and Livinginkata. Well, the ex-owners just snort and maybe get drunk, and roll on the floor. Good night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xylophone Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 23 hours ago, LivinginKata said: Nothing much ... feet dragging for ever Very much on a related subject, I have just spoken to a Thai lady friend I know (ex-girlfriend of a friend of mine) and told her in no uncertain terms to get onto a lawyer to see about getting the money she has already paid into the stalled Nanai road Phanason "The Park" development back before it's too late (if not already). The poor girl put down a deposit and paid monthly instalments on a small apartment, and when the development stalled the first time, they persuaded her to step up to a slightly larger apartment because they said they would be built sooner, and the poor girl not being the sharpest knife in the drawer, did so. Now of course the thing has been stopped for some time and she stands to lose about 250,000 baht, something which she can not afford to do. I do feel very sorry for the girl because she is a simple soul and very trusting and has been lied to by the sales people there, but there's not a lot that I can do although I did say I would help if I could, especially with the lawyer and what action could be taken. I believe this one was a case of the building going ahead without the correct building permits and this mess really does need to be sorted out because I know of quite a few Thais who have invested in this place because they thought it would be something good for their future, but obviously not. Would love to know what is being done about it, but don't suppose we ever will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LivinginKata Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I met a guy who bought into ACE. Youngish guy making good money offshore. He lost over 2 million Baht by paying the agreed monthly advance fees .... until I told him that I did not think it would be built. He thought I was mad, but asked about and then stopped sending ACE money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
