Hi, This is my story.

Telling lie about rental refund:
Rental Rate: Daily = 500 bath, Monthly = 3800 Bath + 5000 for the room's insurance
We designed the monthly rental because we want to stay for 3 months.

On the day we move in,
the apartment owner said, "Incase you want to stay only first haft of the month. you can pay the rental only haft, but you have to give me notice 1 week before you move out". We also have fitness on the top floor. She said. At the end of the second month we told the officer, we want to move out after14, but she want us to pay full month rental. "We will give you the refund back on the day you move out" she said.

On the day we move out,
The owner say, "we will have to check the room after you move out, so come back here tomorrow." "You also have to give me back the room key today." "If it is not thing damaged, we will give you back the insurance (5000) and your haft month rental refund. This is our rule." The owner said.
We don't know why she needs a day to check the stuff in the room, but we don't mind because we want to visit our friend's house. "We can come back here tomorrow." I told my friend.
And we has never used the fitness she told us since the first day because it has been locked all the time. (one of the room keeper told me that "it has never been opened actually" ! ! ! )

Next day,
The owner gives us back only 3000 bath for the room's insurance. We ask why. She say, "We keep 2000 for the electricity, weather and phone expend", and she show us the receive. How about the haft month rental refund, we ask. "What refund?" The owner says. She also says, " we have only daily rental and monthly rental. You already pay monthly rental. It is up to you when ever you want to move out. 15 or 30 it is up to you. We never give any one back the refund. It is our rule." ! ! ! !

We repeated the conversation that we had with her yesterday. She repeatedly say. "I never said that., I never said that."! ! ! ! One time, she admits that some of the apartment officer may tell us, but she said. She already kicks that person out. All of us can remember who told us about that refund. The owner of the apartment! How ever she never take respond for what she told us yesterday.! ! ! !

Now I know why she wants the room key on the day we move our stuff out. So that we can not do any damn thing when we find out about her tricks later. I guess, she much has tricked a lot of foreigner travel before us.

Trying to cheat the room's insurance:
After augment, we get out of that apartment, and we think that we will never go back again. When we take a look at the check. (It is a personal checking) we found that she did not sign the check! Finally we have to go back for that damn signature! At the bank we also found that she make a mark so we can not get cash immediately. It needs to transfer to our account only. If you have an account with Thai bank, it should be ok. If you don't, you will have to pay the fee to transfer to the account in your country.!

Cheat electricity, weather and phone expend:
She did not give us the receive, but after we did some calculated from the money we got back. We found that we have to pay more than 100 a day for electricity, weather and phone! (It doesn't include the rental.) It is impossible. My Thai friend said. We were staying in the room only at night. However it is enough for one day. We don't want to go back again. "If you want to make a long time staying in Thailand, next time you better keep recording you electricity and weather meter." My friend said.

Conclusion:
well… it is not a big money, but it was a waste of our time and a good feeling to this city. It was also truly unfair business to me. That hurt me. I guess, she much has tricked to a lot of foreigner travel included me. After you read this page, I hope you will not be the next victim of this bitch!

My little recommendation,

• Never except check from foreigner people
• Never make a deal with stranger, No matter how good he/she looks!
• (If you have to make a deal) Always write down every deal on a paper and always get the signature
• Always have a tourist police's phone number next to you (1155 <-Bangkok' tourist police)
• Trust your instinct!
