      Hi. Yes, Iโ€™ve posted there already. I think there may be a problem naming and shaming maids here? Someone posted on a few of their bad experiences with certain named maids but the post has been taken down?

        auntieM:
        I had a maid who claim that she can't eat left overs and have very sensitive skin.

        She will soak her baju in fabric softener overnight, and if she gets to choose she will buy the most ex type of tissue paper/ kitchen paper towel available..
        She bochap what kind of toilet roll cause she uses tissue in toilet wor :faint:

        So have to play detective.. ... ๐Ÿ˜‰
        Sometimes cannot think too hard.

        My current maid at first claim she cannot drink cold water or eat ice cream. Then by and by, she start to drink some cold water, and bit by bit, some ice cream. I really don't know what to make of it.

        Toilet paper reminds me of thing that happened with ex-maid. Sometimes we buy different brands (whatever is on sale). She'll put the rough rough type in the toilets my family using, and the smooth one in the toilet she uses (only she use, we seldom go inside). Until my mum wised up and swopped the paper when that happens. After that, she didn't dare try. ๐Ÿ˜›

          So many horror stories about maids. Quite scary.


          Any good experiences at all?

          I find that my maid is quite good.

              Thanks all for your comments.


              May i have a quick check.

              My maid is due for 6-monthly medical examination. However, the letter has been misplaced. Anyone has such experience and what should i do?

              Can i still bring her for medical check-up without letter?

                ask MOM to resend

                there is a page for the doctor to sign and send off to MOM, so you need to have the letter

                  Verykiasu,


                  Thanks.

                  I had wrote to MOM 2 days ago without replied tilldate. Had just MOM reminder.

                  Ok. I will wait for the letter then.

                  Just hope there wonโ€™t be any penalty charge.

                    may be you can check their web and see whether you can download the form

                    or email them could be faster (or your writing to them was email ?)

                    or call them non-stop till you get a reply from them

                      Hi, me again.

                      You can go to mom website and log on using your singpass. Can print out the same medical form from there. Very easy, nonid to wait for letter to arrive.

                      Direct Link: https://wponline.mom.gov.sg/WPOLLoginController?action=WPOLLoginAction&actionType=WPOLLoginOWNBehalf

                      If this don't work, try to find work permit online (foreign domestic maid).

                        does the print out carry the maid's personal particulars ?

                        it will be a great help ! it should say what test the doc need to run (not every 6 months with the same test)
