i went to my agent to hire a new maid fr phi as my maid only tell me that she's not going to renew contract when i ask her in early sept (her visa due in end oct) ...
sure agent said it's ok as it takes ard 2.5 mths for a maid to come ... also, i can renew my existing maid's visa for one mth so that she can leave by end nov …
however, i started to chase the agent in mid nov ... they only said "chasing ... don't know when the new maid can come ... confirm later ... " ... so, my husband called them last week n they said the maid in phi has no $ to attend the course/exam ... so, still don't know when she can come ... we chased many times n sometimes said maybe she can come in mid dec ... and now said maybe 20/dec ... so, i can't have a date ... actually, maybe even after x'mas ... i don't know ...
this agent is v irresponsible (many tv commercials) ... :tongue:
also, they won't refund to me if i don't want the maid now ... but it's they can't provide the service to me in the first place ...
if i apply another new maid fr phi via this agent now, they won't charge ... however, if i want to use the $ to hire a local one, they said NO
it's v nonsense ...
my maid left already as visa expires … only my mum taking care of the b (2 yrs o) now … but she can’t make it every day and I don’t want to throw the ball to her …
will u suggest I wait (but don’t know when) or hire a local one (take ard 3 weeks) … also, indo or phi is better for local maid … ?
the agent called my husband yesterday n said the maid in phi has no $ n will not come wor ... i think the agent just want to stop us fr chasing them !! it's v angry that they tell us so so so late ... also, no refund ... we can only apply another one fr o/s again (don't know how long to wait again ... )
i hv interview 2 local indo yesterday n found that those local maid will have "request" like back home late/go out earlier/must take leave on sun ...
Hi melbby, I need a local maid as well. but seems that very difficult to find a good one in HK.
Regarding your question about Indo or filipino, just depends your need and requirement. As I dont have good experience of indo, so I only concentrate to finding a local maid.
