First, I won't say the name of the place until things have been resolved but I just spent a month at a lousy place and the girl there has jacked up the rates on everything.
I moved in with NO contract. I paid 3,500 for the month along with a 3,000 "furniture" deposit.
It's only been me in the room for the entire month...and I worked during the day's, all day. I put the aircon at night for a few hours and ran the fan. The place had a fridge as well.
Anyway, she hands me a bill and says the electric is just over 2,000 baht and 300 baht for water, which I've been going out of my way to conserve by taking bucket showers and only flushing two or three times a day.
Needless to say I'm VERY upset.
I've already moved out and I plan on trying to get as much of my deposit back as possible. I know it's a long-shot being Thailand and everything. I also know I didn't sign a contract and have NO IDEA what the meter read before I moved in. They charge 8 baht per kwh.
What do you think?
Someone told me I should tell the owner I will haunt the place if they don't square with me...lol
