      Dear LKVM,moonee, Fifujo and 1 amber


      Thanks for the wise advise... you were right...

      Wow.. It's been a stressful day with this 10 days old maid. My neighbour call me and said that my burmese maid has been sneaking out when I am not at home. When I ask her she admits and claim that she went to buy medicine as she has severe stomach pain. She said she when out about three hours. I ask her where she got the money to gout as she is only 10 days old and how she knows the way out as i am staying in private estate. She was silence and said that the agent is aware that she has medical issues and force her to work to clear her loan. She said she want to go back ... I called the agent and make the maid speak and tell the agent that she is not fit and I send her back to agent. I really frustated with this agent as they have not given me her WP or passport and worse case her contact with me was only 18 months as her passport will expire in 18 months. Now, I have no confident with this agent but they refuse the refung the agency fees that I paid to them and force me to take another maid. But I dont want to take with them as they are really liars...how can they give me a medical case maid that has been transfereed more than three times. Is there any where to get my money back. I paid close to SGD3000 that is 400 maid agency fees 350 for insurance and the remainde is the maids loans. The agent lady is an arrogant women that is super liar....
      Oh dear! Another tactic to use on the agent is to tell them u dont want to hire maid anymore cos u cannot take the stress. Wait for the maid to transfer and demand a refund. I have seen people doing it. If not go to the agency and make noise until they cannot do business. If u have the time do it everyday and talk to their potential client until they cannot tahan. :evil:

            Threaten to report to MOE. Ask them how to take another maid if u do not intend to employ maid anymore and you will be hiring part time cleaner instead. But u must be willing to forfeit the agent fees. As for the insurance part, u have to check with the insurance company see if they offer refund or not.

              hi bigsnoopy


              do u mean MOM?

              hi r2010

              well, they gave you a bad deal. I think if you make your case with reasons there is always a possibility. In fact, if the agency thinks you are not easy to cheat they will be careful to recommend a good replacement. That's just my opinion. πŸ˜„
