Qvc

Has any one heard of QVC in Thailand?

I think they sell timeshare. They are advertising in my local newspaper, offering work in Phuket, Patong or Kata beach.

Free flight, rent for one month and visa’s sorted.

I bet the pay is awful though.

They are the usual "timeshare" sharks , I wonder what type of visa they can get you . Most of the "Timeshare Touts" I've heard about are on a normal Tourist Visa and are therefore working illegally.

Visa sorted.. Cant believe its not a lie..

If the flight is return though could just take it.. All for ripping off the timeshare companies as much as you can.. Hopefully they will all fail and sink.

Well - you have the "company line" down pat already

You will be one of these jerks that stop tourists on pavements saying "do you speak English" These people are the worst thing after Tuk Tuks.

You don't have a work permit and are illegally working.These are the type of people the Visa clamp down was aimed at.

Take care.

Yes, there are those fµcking people who sometimes yell you in the street "excuse me, do you speak English" or pay thai people to make you fill surveys. This happens in Phuket and Pattaya. Their only purpose is to sell you an appartment (in time sharing).
When such thing happens, just put the "ignore mode ON".
Sometimes, I'm proud to say that I speak french and to tell them "MOI PAS PARLER ANGLAIS !!!"

Think you'll find most here are going into PRICK season and looking to increase their current team of BG or LB by 10 - 15 people!!

You forgot to mention its compulsory to be able to turn a mopede on a pin head in order to not miss another prospective client!

Timeshare scum ruin peoples holidays by pressure selling them grossly overpriced units they cant even legally own.
If the new visa regulations bite, I hope they bite these pondlife HARD.

Oh, you will sometimes see in bars `holiday questionaire` forms promising you a prize if you fill them in. What you will get is a visit from a timeshare pest. The bar gets 50 baht I think for each completed form. If you have a spare minute and like the bar owner, fill one in (somehow managing to enter incorrect details

Hey Flub, I guess by now after reading these responses that people don't really like your kind around Patong etc! Do me a favour and don't try to make eye contact with me in November!

I don't work for them and don't plan to, if you look at my profile I'm in England. Just read the advert in my local paper and wanted to know more about them out of interest.

Please read things and understand them before replying, everyone else who's posted has managed to.
