      Sorry, got to post this again even though I already posted abt my ex-maid before… Just discovered today that she started stealing my things much earlier than I caught her, like during her 1st or 2nd year! ( I caught her officially during the 3rd year) and I think she is so smart that she knows I will check her luggage when she goes home so she asks her frd to brg it home for her! So that’s why both times she went home I checked her bag also didn’t find anything. Today, saw her wearing my AX t-shirt happily posting her selfies on her FB!


      So must definitely BEWARE of her…she is an incredible liar and thief…

      Sorry, for the repeated post.

        I wrote to MOM in Feb, using the feedback tab on their website; asking them how I can formally write to black list my ex maid, MOM did not reply at all.

          Thanks for alerting us but you should have taken care of your own belongings.. And not depend on checking luggage to see if she has taken anything..

          I have a helper too.. I keep a close tab on all items.. Jewellery.. Clothes.. Money.. Etc.. It is our own responsibility to take care of our belongings...

            It's my fault for trusting her too much. Thought she would be different from my other maids....turns out, she is nothing but a thief! Gave her freedom and out of respect, didn't check her things more regularly or start questioning her when my things go missing....choose to believe her when she said she didn't take it. Learnt my lesson the hard way... :frustrated:

              Hi,


              just receive email from MOM saying that they cannot ban or blacklist my ex-maid just based on feedback alone. However, they did mention I can become a referee for her so whenever any prospective employer or agent want to apply for her, MOM will give them my contact no. and they can choose to call me.

              think that is the only thing i can do now because i can't go to the police already since she is already back home. but i'm glad at least i tried to warn others and did something to prevent them from falling into the same trap as I did! :xedfingers:

                [quote=\"belle_116\"]Hi there,

                I am considering hiring Indonesia/fillipina maid who has worked in Taiwan or HK for over 5yrs to look after my special need old folks. Would anyone be able to share your past experience with these experienced helpers!? Would they be more demanding and harder to manage?

                Hi, you better becareful, as I know working in HK will have about SGD 650 with 4 days off and working in taiwan will have about the same salary with 4 days off too. So when they want to lower their salary and work in singapore, something is wrong. Please do a double check on them

                If these maids do not have any prior work experience in. Sg is there any ways to do a background check on them?[/quote]The most simple way is to check their passport. If they tell you they have passport, you can check where have they been. However, in Indonesia, they are mostly from kampong. If they never been to oversea before, quite unlikely they have done their passport. These are the thing you should take note

                  I had a helper last yr and discovered missing jewellery frm a locked shelf. The maid used to close the door and clean, my mum discovered a few days after she left. Initially we tot the same s u.. maid gone back. My mum couldnt sleep well for a week and we went down to cantonment to make a report. There was no web cam at that time so we had no evidence. Nevethless, the officer took down our statement and my mum told him that she would like to confront the maid if she returns. MOM was informed.
                  If she ever return we will b informed.

                  You hv fb pictures so u are better off than me, go ahead with the report.

                    She is so clever, she knew abt the pics in her FB (maybe she joined this forum...) so she took down the pics and closed the account. Anyway, I just found out that she has registered herself with a local agent called RAFFLES EMPLOYMENT and on her biodata, she dare to tell the agent that she has an excellent job record! :mad:

                    I called the agent up, her name is Pam and told her all abt her lies and bad deeds. Agent was quite surprised ( again, I dunno if agent was acting or what...cos she seems to specialized in transfer maids...) and told me that my ex-maid didn't tell her anything. Aft talking to her, she told me that she will most probably take down her profile..(again I dunno how true...)

                    Anyway, will see if MOm does contact me if any prospective employers when to employ her...great time to test out what MOM promised! :evil:

                      Lucky you told the agent, you go and check lay whether the maid advertisement still there or not…if still there means agent trying hard to market her…if she take down means she good agent ehehhe

                        I'm curious...how did you find out about your ex-maid's registration with a another agency?
