Title: I wired money to Thailand for my SRS and haven't recieved a reply
Post by: lemon on October 27, 2010, 12:48:34 PM
Hi

I've been scheduling my SRS with Dr. Chettawut in Thailand and he gave me the information to wire the money so I sent about $10,000 to him on the 18th and the bank told me he should receive it 30 minutes later that same day. So when I got home from the bank I emailed him and let him know it was sent and he should receive it that day.

I didnt receive a confirmation of payment reply for 3 days so I wrote again on the 21st just reminding that I sent it and if anything went wrong let me know so I can go to the bank and fix it. He sent a reply asking me to fill out a deposit form so he could track the deposit so I did and sent it back to him the same day.

Now its been 6 days since then and I still havent received a reply. For those of you who've payed for SRS through wire transfer how long did it take for you to receive confirmation of your payment? The bank said he received the payment on the 18th so 9 days just feels like a long time to wait for confirmation to me. And I checked my account and the 10,000 is definitely no longer there. Should I e-mail him again? its been 6 days since the last email but i dont wanna seem too clingy or aggressive.

Any advice please

Make sure that the bank has sent it and that the other bank received it.  And then badger them till they say they have received it.

It's your money.  No need to worry about seeming clingy or aggressive.

Hi, thank you very much for the replies everyone

I actually just received a email confirming my payment today, it turns out the bank didnt fax the confirmation so there was trouble tracking it, but its all taken care of now. Such a relief  :) thank you so much

Thank you lemon. It would have been terrible if the money had been lost.
