S Korean fleeced by Chiang Mai bar gets a refund

[orang37 1,173]

The lack of understanding, and empathy, shown here for the police, and the staff of the karaoke bar ... for their trauma, humiliation, etc., which will undoubtedly require medical and/or psychiatric services in future ... is: appalling.

 

40,000 baht for services un-rendered is a pittance compared to the probable negative effects on these gracious entertainment providers, and the valiant police.

I would probably be able to guess where in cnx  the bar is.anyone who knows Thailand or visit Thailand knows to avoid these kinds of bars.it happens often they will not be the last

Way to GO Thailand!!!
Let's simply continue to rip-off tourists!
I am sure the karaoke Bar owner serves the local authorities very well with tea- and coffee-money.
Otherwise places like this should NOT be allowed to operate 1 more single day and closed forever.
But, who cares....

Another bullet point to add to my long list of reasons never to visit Chiang Mai again. Why does any farang choose to settle in that grithole of a place?

Ah but it used to be a beautiful place.  It has taken this long for the tail that wags the dog to arrive.

Chiang Mai - infamous for their Karaoke scams and worst Immigration on the Planet … s-hole

As for CM immigration I've been on a retirement for 10 years and I can categorically state no problem ever!!! I've never been asked for anything other than the correct documents and the correct fee. My experience confirms if you are intelligent with immigration provide the correct paperwork they are no problem... Anywhere. Or maybe my intelligent friends and I are just lucky

I must be one of your intelligent friends, as in my 10 years here on a Retirement Visa, I've never had a single problem with CM Immigration.  I've always found them to be friendly and helpful.

police would fine Chaiwat for operating an entertainment venue without a permit.

Of course they will fine the bar owner, they know he has still 40,000 baht extra.

Lol! We're not friends but we could be....thanks for the feedback.

Sounds like a very green sort of guy to just roll up at a bar and sit at a table full of bargals buying drinks for them all and drinking heavily himself without giving any thought to the bill that must be paid at the end of it all.
