      Hiya all!!


      Good news... we confirmed on a fresh indo maid! Just gotten the agent's confirmation today that she is blocked by us now. Yipee!!! :celebrate:

      My hubby interviewed her on Sat morning.. and she understood his English... so, that's a start... :lol: we are crossing our fingers and toes that everything will work out well.. πŸ™ πŸ™ but of cos, gotta think abt the training etc when she comes!!

      Am thinking abt the CCTV next... and then packing my current maid off!! Strangely enough, she has been working sooo hard these few days! Think my hub's prediction is correct! She told me she wanna go home cos she thinks we will KEEP her! πŸ˜› πŸ˜› Now, its backfired and we will let her go...

          LKVM, tigger88, Littlefly... yeah.. i will look into the cam... not sure if the man is keen abt it... plus I have to say... the man is just like littlefly's hub... another king of procastinator!

          :rotflmao: :hi5:

          My hb said the one on BP is not the latest model and the prices I saw is around $100plus. I am not tech-savvy so happy to leave all that to him. Anyway, he 拍胸膛 saying he'll take care of it.... πŸ˜‰

          :rotflmao: :salute:
          Muahahahaha... u're funny!!! Dlink also $100plus ah... i'm thinking of a model that pans for the living.. not sure if thats also $100plus... if your hb decided on a model thats good, pls share!!!!!! πŸ˜‰[/quote] Hi i'm currently using Dlink IP Pan-tilt camera (Model: DCS5220). Bought it at Sim Lim Square early this year before my current maid came. It can be viewed from the Iphone but you need to dowload and pay for the app but it comes with lifetime product warranty from agent. So far, i think this model is user friendly and the viewing is clear both from Iphone and internet.

                    mummymaid:

                    I installed mine after maid arrived. Told her before I hired that my house has CCTV.

                    My previous maid complained to other people.... current maid told me. Current maid told me there's nothing wrong for employer to have CCTV. If the maid herself is an upright person who's seriously doing work for the employer, what's there to be afraid. 😎
                    Hi mummymaid,

                    Care to share which camera did you get for your house?? I'm starting to keep a lookout and will be good if I have some models to check on.. am totally clueless in this area!! Tks!! :salute: :salute:
