Hi,


I would suggest taking the Don Muang tollway into town and then get onto the Cheangwattana / Sirirat tollway. Take the Rama 6 exit and turn north on Rama 6. At the first set of lights (Padipat Junction), turn left and follow Tahan road for about 2km. Samsen road is on the left.

Dont know how you cant see it in google... I typed 'samsen road' into google maps and found it first time.

True has an office in Nakhon Nayok, so with a little bit of luck you wont have to swap landing pages

Hi there,

Around 7 years ago, I sued a landlord in the Bangkok civil court once in order to reclaim a room rental deposit. At that time, the lawyer's fee for a one day appearance plus all the case-filing fees was around B10,000. I won the case, but there was no award made in terms of the legal fees, which I understand is the case for petty matters like this.  So, if you are willing to fork out ten grand plus in lawyer fees in order to get back only seven, then yes, it is an option for you.

As Unique commented above, good advice from your lawyer - I would definitely let it go.

Hi there,

If it is the Nichada that I know, it is on Samakee road in Nonthaburi, right ?

If you have a car and will be commuting, you can stay anywhere since it is fairly close to the expressway and driving at those times will be no problem. However, if you dont have a car, then you will find transportation a nightmare as Nonthaburi is way out from the city center and most of the vans and busses stop at or near The Mall Ngamwongwan so you would need to use the local pick-up vans, which would be interesting since I dont ever see any foreigners using them. I guess it all depends on how well you speak Thai. If you have never lived in Thailand before and you are not familiar with how things are done,  you're in for an adventure!  

As I say, if you are driving yourself, no problem. but if you are new to town and are going to rely on local transport, I'd recommend you stay close to the office until you find your feet. There are plenty of Malls, Cinemas and eating places out there and taking a taxi to the city once or twice a week would be a lot easier than struggling every single day to and from work. The Legacy hotel is about 1km away from Nichada and caters for both locals and foreigners (mainly other Asian) and I'm sure you'd be fine there or someplace similar.

Good luck

Hi,

I have a standard case, which is smaller and less complicated than yours (no drawers), and it was around 10,000 B. Comparing the size of yours, and also if you can find something as complex as this, I think the price may be similar in Bangkok to what you pay there. There are companies who can make cases to your exact size and design, but these special designs are very expensive here.

Good luck
