About bill padding,if you realise there’s more drinks in the bin than you have drank,you call them over,then if they say that they have not made a mistake but you know your right,don’t argue with them,just finish your drink,pay the bill and go.and never go there again
Just pay for each drink separately.
@@ubiquitousdiabolususually each round no one is strong enough to just sit alone forever.
good advice...but point out that you feel like you've been cheated and that they've lost a customer. They probably won't care...and neither should you, as there are no shortages of bars in Pattaya.
When you pay 7 bucks for an 8oz glass of beer in a pub in the west then hey dont sweat the small stuff
Bill padding only really goes on in walking street but why would you go there unless you a flag chaser
As a seasoned Pattaya/Thailand traveler, I never thought I would be using this as an educational video to re-educate myself.
RE: Lady Drinks - The girls are so smooth & cunning & seem to be able to get under your guard.
I have dropped my guard & need to reinstate it as I spend way too much on a night out.
Going to watch this regularly to get back on track prior to my next visit.
Cheers
That does not look like San Fransisco anymore for it to be accurate you need a bunch of homeless, drug addicts and trash all over the floor. Great video, good talk, nice mall
😂
You’re welcome!
You forgot the broken windows and shoplifting
Every third world country has those same problems 😂😂😂
@@lifeasithappens thanks for your vote!
sir, your video's are allways so relaxing me...after 16 years in thailand and now a few years in the phillipines i am really getting attracted to return to pattaya ones more to see what has changed and your video's are sure a damn good advice for newbies but for me they are really bringing me back in the mood to have back these great years i experienced there so thanks a lot and keep up the excellent job!
Thank you
My pal who is a more experienced expat than I always says that when in the bars or the gogos, YOU are in control...YOU are the boss...and to get used to it. Put aside all the seeming polite expectations and feel ok to say NO.
Your 100% correct about the tipping,I’m guilty of this myself,Pattaya it is almost expected by massage girls or bar staff even when they do a lousy job.
Not being a cheap Charlie but unless I receive exceptional service I no longer tip and also in restaurants you normally find a service charge of 10% written in Thai something to be mindful of.
Great work and love the channel 👍🏻
I don't think a massage needs to be exceptional to deserve a tip, they don't make a lot unless your going for a little something extra. As long as it's not a lazy massage or she's on her phone you should leave something. Agree tipping for most things isn't necessary though.
Great video bro 🤙
Terminal/Pier 21 is exceptional. Fantastic food, starting at 28 baht, in a very good quality. Nearly unbeliebable, The tips for nightlife are 100% spot on. I can confirm everything Daz says.
28 baht for what ?
@@davidbrown4271 28 baht (80 UScent) for one plate of great, good tasting food like rice with chicken and/or vegetables
Terminal 21 is in Bangkok not Pattaya.
@@JanelGroup If you have no idea, it's better to keep quiet, Terminal 21 is also on Pattaya 2nd Road
I've been there twice and this is an excellent refresher video. It's easy to fall for some of their tactics and it's ok, if you'd like to engage here and there. BUT - it's very important to know how to say NO and not always engage in these games. Great video.
Guys... If you see Daz in a gogo, wait for the girl to go back dancing. Then go over, sit right beside him, put your head on his shoulder and he will buy you a drink.
He is a bit of a soft touch.
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Totally agree. Men need to learn how to politely say NO!!! I've seen so many over the years who just don't know or have the discipline to say NO.
Mai ow kup 😅
So informative, spot on, i live here nearly 2 year, before i fall in all of these traps.. Now i know/learn the "game" as you explained, but sometimes still fall in :-)
Great information as always Daz. Thank you for the effort you put into each and every one. Would love to see a video on negotiating strategies. Especially how to do it politely and respectfully so they don't lose face. Thanks again
With regards to your last point about tipping, you are right in the provinces that tipping is not the done thing. I tried to tip 300 baht on a 1700 baht bar bill in Surin and it actually caused an argument!
I do however think that there are 2 specific instances where tipping is absolutely expected in the tourist zone. 1 is if a bellboy carries your luggage to your room, they will expect a tip but 20 baht is fine. 2 is for a massage (normal not dirty), I think a 100 baht tip is good etiquette in this scenario.
Good man. 👍
I noticed that hotel bellboys in SE Asia generally leave quickly after dropping off your bags. I think this is because they aren’t supposed to accept tips.
@ubiquitousdiabolus They don't really hang around like the vultures in the US but they are happy to receive 20 baht. Given 20 baht many times
Pattaya malls are a great place to duck into when a sudden downpour begins. The rain doesn't usually last more than an hour or three max. That time can easily be spent in a mall looking around and shopping. Maybe see a movie.
Not to mention the aircon … 😊
@@ma3stro681 True. For me I think it's the humidity that's worse than the heat in Pattaya. The A/C can be a welcome relief.
Im a regular in Pattaya but todays video taught me more than all your videos together. But instinctively Iv never got into trouble in Thailand. Also I dont drink. But gr8 information in this one
That was awesome.
Although I have been to Thailand 19 times now, I am guilty of some of the subjects in the discussion.
I will listen to this video again a few times until I get it all through my fat head.
Cheers
A+
And congratulation to 75000 subs Daddy Daz!!! Three years ago watching your first videos I knew your channel gonna be a big sucsess. Well done. Always a great pleasure. Cheers from Germany
He hasn't got there yet.
Loved it! Thanks for the tips, Daz.
Well done Daz. Good info for the newbies. Also good video. Your communication and style not abrupt like 1 or 2 others.
Great talk Daz. I suggest you put all this experience and wisdom in an ebook “Newbie’s Guide”, definitely will sell very well.
Thanks Daz! Great info.
As always, great information!
On my last trip I had some cheap business cards made up with just my WhatsApp & Line QR codes on them. Much easier to pass on to a girl than having the phone out at a busy & loud club and also getting into any sort of trouble with the bar staff. More times than not, I'd get a message the next day from a girl.
A very clever han$um man move! Nice one … 🎉
Great info as always Daz 👍
Another priceless educational video from you! Thanks for all your efforts! 👍👏🏻🌹❤️🙏 I hope to meet you soon.
Very good guidelines, thank you. 🙏
Daz keeping us informed about the night life in Pattaya; thanks for all your camera work. Watching from central coastal Florida. 😎
Great advice, thank you
As always Daz some excellent tips for us newbies 👍
Great tips. I just got back from Bangkok, I wish I had known about the 1 lady drink rule.
That was a great, very nice to listen to chat, with loads of valuable advice that as a first timer coming over in October for a month, I watched and listened to three times with a further look just before I go. ! Thanks daz
Tipping is very simple. I learned way back in the early 1990 ties , you always give 20 Bath to the bar and if you want, a 100 or + Bath to the girl that has been looking after you. But do it discreet
and next time you set your foot into the same bar you can be sure you get the best service and never have to have an empty beer in front of you. This way the bargirls get their shared tip
and your special girl her share for looking after you .
Great explanation, I understand this! I don’t understand some of your other videos, however I did this …… Thank you 🙏
Your knowledge is pure gold. Thanks for sharing with the rest of us.
Your videos are always so informative. I had a girl in a go-go tell me she could not give me her line ID, I thought she was bull shiting me. Now I know why she would not do it. Thank you for your great info.
Pleasure
I love this mall! Love your bar chats in the mall! Keep up the great work! 😊❤😎
Great video and advice.
Very good & useful advice
Thanks for putting us on the games, sir. It's very easy to get played if you don't know the gold digger signs...keep up the good work
Thanks for teachin the young! Really Bro... thank you for all your knowledge.
Lots of good info for me. Thanks.
Thanks, Daz.
I know them but there is nothing wrong with a refresher course.
I always enjoy your videos. But todays content was exceptional. I will remember your tips when I come to Pattaya. I am sure it will come in handy.
So nice of you
Very good advice, even for a frequent visitor like me.
Another great video for thai newbies like me , Ive been going to getlemens clubs here in the states for 40 plus years but Im sure the thais have perfected the hustle and we men need to be reminded to think with the head on our shoulders not between our legs
i only buy LD for 1 girl.
best advice in Pattaya ever!
You speak the truth about saying no and checking your bill as it goes.
Good advice mate. Someone has to help the newbies because the clubs won’t look after you
Very informative video. I’m hoping to go to Pattaya in April.
Hottest month
Good reminder 😊
good info on what to do
Love the education and a story.
Thanks 😊 Daz
My tipping was simple. Lunch would cost me 260 baht, i would place 300 baht in the card and walk away. I see no issues with that.
I love the T21 food court. The food is very good and cheap too. It takes a few minutes to take the escalators up to the top though.
Absolutely Agreed Completely
I've heard that if a bill is 399 Bhat, you can just leave 400 and that is perfectly fine. In the states they'd spit on your food the next time you pop in!
Lol😂 think i heard daz say the word simp, good to see he's getting down with the new lingo! Pattayas top G.
Yes, you did
Thanks this the Great Story & Video !
#Retired4You
Sage advice as always, Khun Daz … 🙏🏽
I chould listen to you for days. Souch a pleasent voice and pace when youre talking. Keep up the good content :D
Wow, thank you!
I tipped my caddy 300 baht the first time I played a round of golf. Yikes! My expat golf buddies gave me a good talking to
and explained that I would be spoiling the caddies and making them look cheap. I was torn because I always felt that tipping was a personal choice and a caddy that spent 4 hours tending to me in the hot Sun was worth more than what they wanted to pay.
A real dilemma for me
300 Baht is fine. It's equal to minimum wage. You did GOOD.
Those other guys are cheap! $12, ffs! Well done on appreciating your caddy …
If they are on a budget and trying to live in Thailand cheap and enjoy retirement playing golf regularly I would imagine your golf buddies don't want you ruining the status quo by tipping to western standards. Overtipping because it's nothing to you or back home you would tip a lot more shouldn't apply here, I don't agree with the 2 week millionaires that call people cheap for not tipping a Thai a days salary because its nothing to you, be fair and tip appropriately when its a social norm. A lot of people overtip because it makes them feel superior when they drive a truck back home, the Thais are just laughing at how gullible you are when you do this and it can lead to you becoming a target.
It's a personal choice, pardon my language but screw them. I haven't been to Thailand or any other of the southeast Asian countries, but I imagine other foreigners would hate me. lol I feel these people do so much for so little, why not brighten their day with what amounts to a truly negligible amount of money.
You deserved a good talking to,this is Thailand not America.Ask friends how much they tip( if have any).
I was @ Terminal 21 on Friday, superbly designed shopping mall.
I very much enjoy your channel, Daz. Thanks for all the great tips. I'll be in Thailand for the first time in November for a couple weeks and spending my birthday in Pattaya. Do you have any tips on where I can do something special for my birthday? I wouldn't mind splurging that night for some fun, make some memories.

Good comment about tips. Here in the US tipping is so prevalent that people don't even think about it, they just do it automatically but like you said "this is Thailand ".
You will be asked if you want to buy a lady drink before your eyes have a chance to focus. If you pick a girl that turns out to not be what you wanted it could be a major pain to get rid of her. Only call someone over after you've had a chance to confirm you like what you see and she smiles back.
More great advice from the Jedi
Great Video . Specially about Tipping I think it is ruining Thai Culture, if I go to tourist areas I usually Tip 20 Baht per order only that too for first one or two drinks.
It is not like USA where employees are underpaid and expected to love off tips. Usually in Asia ( or most sane countries) employers take responsibility of paying their employees because if you don't have capabilities to atleast pay minimum wage to employees you should not be running business.
That's one thing that I found exhausting in the US, having to tip for everything - I mean, as a Brit, we do tip for some things. But damn, tipping every time your buy a drink at a bar is just obscene! :D
Great advice and video again Daz! I have always been a sucker for buying the girls a drink or two (not a bell ringer though). Loved the story of your dancer friend squeezing in to reclaim you :-) did you end up bar fining her and if so how much was it can you say?
Done that already, but now have Line ID
ST 2K
I Once try to tip my lady barber in ho chi minh,
and that was hard work firstly she was confused and than said no need and finally i was able to do
also nice to tip when the service is excellent. 👍
I usually frequent certain bars when in Pataya, mostly small ones so what i do is tell the mamasan i dont buy lady drinks but spot her a 100 baht per girl as i am a frequent customer i dont get pestered for drinks and get great service i often leave a little when i leave
I am lookinh forward to my favorite asian city

You tuber to be my Thailand girlfriend is who I want to take out she is farm lady .
I once had the opposite of a bin pad... It was my first time at a gogo at LK... sat outside the whole time and wasnt intending on staying since the night was young. anyway the girls outside were holding a sign for happy hour i forget the price but it was a special if you bought three beers. I took a seat and i bought two LDs for one of the girls and the three beers. After my first drink came the classic routine daz has mentioned many times played out. "where you from? first time in thailand?" then two other girls come over, massaging my shoulders and hands asking to buy them drinks. "only one girl at a time" i said to the others... they wipe fake tears from their eyes but at least they left me alone 🙃then i got my bin. the two lady drinks were on there but not the three beers! I wanted to pay after each round so I pointed out the missing beers and the mamasan said yeah its ok. Meanwhile in my head i was all "??? what does she mean its ok ???" when the bar girl had to get up to go dance the mamasan came over to chat. She was nice. She asked me if I wanted to boom boom the bar girl 555 "what is the bar fine?" i asked and she replied something to the effect of 2500 baht and i couldnt help it but pick my jaw off the floor! We both LOL'd about it bc im sure even she thought the cost was ridiculous. by this time i finished my drinks and still never got an amended bin. hansum man discount? 555 anyway I felt strange about the situation so I paid my bill left a nice tip that covered the missing beers and then some. kap kun kapped the bar girl, went off on my way to treetown but not before getting my c*ck grabbed by the mamasan on the way out. 😃
That store sure is very nicely decorated
When I'm on holiday I generally tip 10 baht in coffee shops, 20 baht in restaurants, 50 baht after a massage, and 100 baht to airport taxi drivers and caddies. As an expat I would probably halve all those.
Agree with everything except the taxi drivers. All my worst interactions were taxi drivers. Unworthy of tips and best avoided altogether.
@@CAHSR2020Grab drivers have been nice.
A good regular massage deserves 100 baht tip for mine …
Whenever I stay in Pats always indicate to the room cleaner that i will leave my loose change under the corner of the bed, to stop the receptionist-room checker helping themselves to the cleaners tip.
Hi, enjoy all the good advice for my upcoming Nov 2024 trip. Question: what of dating/finding an older woman (30-40) or.. a mamasan ?
Totally agree. About saying NO. Very important. It’s up to you. Not her. In a bar scene.
I think a lot of it is because lonely 'Western men' are so used to being shunned and sneered at back home that any show of 'friendship' from these girls catches them off guard. Sometimes I think the only way to learn is the hard way.
Hi Daz.
Always super to watch your videos.
Fantactic. I have a little? For you.
I come from Denmark, and someone told me that not many places in Thailand, the banks want to change our danish money into thai bath... But what about euro or dollars? I have a thai bank account, but not everybody have that. Can they be sure if they bring euro with them to Thailand? Do you know about that Daz?
Thanks for your amazing videos 🙏
Someone else said this, so maybe you should pre-change your currency into USD before you come, then No Problem
In Pattaya there are currency change booths on every street corner, that change USD, EUR, GBP, etc.
Bring brand new bills with no marks or tears.
A Higher denomination bill (like $100 USD bill) gets a better rate than a lower one (like $50 USD) bill.
~
Only change 1 bill at the airport when you arrive. It is a better rate in Pattaya, so only change enough to pay for travel costs to get you to there.
I am at our frosty cup ice cream restaurant in my city of champions massillon

This placd been here since 1977-8?
Goodness. I was in that shopping complex for the first time a few days ago when I was in Pattaya but never made it up to the top floor. I would have gone up if I had known about that great food court. I went to use the toilets on the London level but could not work out which was the mens or womens.
Another great teaching video, thanks. I learned the sister act right away and only happened once to me. I didn’t know about the tipping only in tourist areas. One question, what is a good tip for a lady costing 1500 baht? Sometimes I gave an even 2000 baht. I know it’s a lot but those few went above the average girl. Cheers Daz. 👍🏼
100 baht is enough
Great advice Daz, some of us learned the expensive way and it never harms to tell what is now obvious to some of us LOS veterans. That said, in 15 years and 29 trips, I have never eat in a mall like Terminal 21. What is the cash card system all about? Many thanks.
The food stalls don't take cash, so you buy a card for 100 or 200 or 300 baht then pay with that, when you leave, you reclaim what's left on the card.
Many thanks.😃
As above, you probably saw the queue near the entrance
The funniest one I encountered was at Treetown. Extremely gorgeous woman comes up to me asks if she can sit at my table. I told that it was no problem. She said that she had to go to the little girls room. I had not ordered anything yet. Quite suddenly a waiter comes over to my table with a tray full of various expensive drinks. I just laughed and said they are not my drinks and I exited the place. Once you let them put them down on the table then they are yours. Be careful. I get ripped off a little every so often but I watch for the big rip offs. Have a good one.
great chat Daz. Did I miss the story?
Short one about the fave girl claiming her customer (Daz)
@@CheekyMonkey007 got it thank you.
Very helpful information. What would you recommend for an older guy who doesn’t drink but would still want company. Don’t mind buying lady drinks but I would only drink soda. Preference would be occasional LT rather than ST.
You’re all good as long as you’re buying drinks, are playful with the girls and aren’t a Cheap Charlie. LT is harder to get these days, but it’s all up to the individual girl and the arrangement you come to, han$um man … 😅
These days most girls will refuse LT or find an excuse to leave early, but they don't care what you're drinking so long as they're drinking.
I only tip for a massage, or a very small amount in certain restaurants, maybe 20 baht.
Hey daz ,very good advice again , I found terminal 21 an amazing place , nothing like the shopping centres back in the U.K. , I think ladydrinks are common sense , just be sensible , about the tipping ,I usually give 20 baht to bell boys or girls , 100 baht to the taxi from the airport , in the past I have been to the same bar many times, my friend was the owner ,so,I have been a little more generous with tips for the girls ,now it’s closed ,sadly , so, when I come next I will be taking your advice , keep up the good work 🙏👊👊
Wait until you see the malls in Bangkok. Even better!
@@JettMalone yes buddy , I have seen the many Mega malls in Bangkok, , they are amazing, I enjoyed the Siam paragon sea world very much , but the actual mall is amazing, , I loved wandering around Mbk with so many electronic gadgets
If the "sister" is cute, buy her a drink too.Take them both if your feeling afluent😊
I've never seen a "sister" that was worth paying double or being tag-teamed for drinks and tips.
@@CAHSR2020 I certainly have! I had a pair in CM this Songkran who were same Mother but different Dads😊
I always tip in bars and for massage but I have had a couple of instances when I have had service so bad I have decided there's no way I'm tipping and both times I received verbal abuse in Thai for taking all my change.
Yeah, a warning about this kind of reaction should be included. When you're out with a bar girl she may push you to tip more or even hand your change over herself. In Thai culture this action is credited to the bar girl rather than you. You're nothing but a wallet or ATM.
Go with X amount to spend,you gonna be pissed most of the time anyway and your decision making regarding drinks,bar fines etc can be compromised.If you gonna be worried about all this you not gonna have a good time
i’ll be coming to Thailand early next year for my first time. This video in a lot of your other videos are awesome thank you.
If one of the service girls and I wasn't interested in I just say I'm just chillin out it can be very expensive if you don't say no and ALWAYS check your bin I didn't do this on my first trip I got burnt when I looked at the bill there was whiskey on it I didn't want to argue I paid it and never went back
Last time I was in Pattaya I found the male staff in walking street bars quite aggressive. On one occasion I was given my change in a tray with an excessive amount of coins. I started to take the notes and the service guy tried to grab the tray with the coins. I had to pull it back...And this in one of the most popular bars in WS.
Hah. It seems no matter what city/town you venture in what country, there is always that street everyone in the know avoids. I live in Brighton, avoid West St.
Ive been to the Philippines 4 times and had a wife there. And many of the experiences you've mentioned are the same.
I always pay up front for drinks. In new York City as well.
If you are worried about spending money you should stay home, the price of a bottle of Heineken in Las Vegas is 12 dollars for one beer
Thanks 👍Is there bar fine after 12:00 am?
There is Always a bar fine, some bars reduce it later.
@@CheekyMonkey007 Thanks
I like to buy them all a drink, have great fun with them all, and yes I check my bill everytime
