I met my Thai girlfriend on a site called Thailovelinks.com.

I travelled out to Khon Kaen to meet her only to discover

that all these girls that join for free have to pay a large

fee of approximately 500 pounds when they enter into

a serious relationship. They are constantly hassled

by the web site agent with numerous phone calls and I

had to visit the operator of the site twice to answer questions on how are relationship

was going. So please think twice before joining one of these

sites.

Regards

Blade

Regarding Blades, Thailovelinks post.
I have been emailing a girl I met via them, and intend coming to Khon Kaen, to meet her.
I didn't realise they get hassled for money.
I was under the assumption that the 'farang' paid! Obviously wrong.
Thank you for that piece of information.
If any one has any other bits of information that can help me, please let me know.

Hmmm,

This one confuses me somewhat.

I didn't pay much attention to Blades original post as I didn't know the site Thailovelinks.com.

This site is operated by an Australian company...who also operate asianeuro.com and the way they make money is to get you to sign up as a gold member which then allows you to comunicate with any girl who is online. Or you can send emails via their site.

There is no suggestion that anyone pays anything if you strike up a relationship. I wonder whether Blade has confused this site with another introduction type site.

So Tricky, there will be no problems.

The web addresss for this site is www.thailovelinks.com

This site is of the join and chat type. You can join for free and get to look at the other members but cannot contact them. Ok a bit frustrating seeing all these nice girls and not being able to do anything about it.

So you upgrade your membership by paying. Current rates are for Gold membership:

Credit Card PayPal Check/Money Order
  Billed in AUD$ (Australian) Approx US$ Price Billed in US $ Most Currencies
1 Month AUD$33 (US $24.99) US $24.99 Get Price
3 Months (save 31%) AUD$68 (US $49.99) US $49.99 Get Price
6 Months (save 49%) AUD$100 (US $74.99) US $74.99 Get Price
12 Months (save 67%) AUD$130 (US $99.99) US $99.99 Get Price
Activation Time Instant Fast Several Days

This gives you the ability to talk to other members through an Instant communicator or to email them via the email from the site.

It also gives the girls the ability to contact you directly too.

Is it any good. I am a member of this site and enjoy chatting away to the girls. I find the Instant Communicator very frustrating as it seems very hit or miss. Works fine sometimes but you don't seem to be able to communicate with a lot of members. This could be due to 2 reasons. The other member has logged off, the system can be slow in that regard, or there are "cookies" which prevent a successful meeting.

I have steered most of the girls I talk to to either Yahoo or MSN messenger and continue the chat there. Also then you can see if they come on line without having to be in the site.

You are obviouislly relying on the information the girl supplies in her profile and what she tells you. The english ability of some of the girls can also be described as barely passable in some cases and a couple of times I've had to resort to Thai to keep a conversation going.

The site seems to attract a lot of girls from both Udon and Khon Kaen so is ideal for someone like me who travels that area and can actually go and meet these girls in person.

So, pros. Cheap and you get to talk to heaps of girls in the area we are in, Issan.

Cons: No screening of the girls so buyer beware.

I have met several girls from this website, and I am 100% sure that they do not have to pay ANYTHING. I currently live in bangkok, been living in Thailand 7 years and speak fluent Thai.  Be warned, if a girl in Thailand is asking you for money for ANY reason, AWLAYS check and double check.  Trust, but verify, and then think about feeling sorry for her or giving away your money later.  Don't be another sad story for me to read or hear about. Hundreds of men have lost everything they have in Thailand buy trusting the Thai girls too much, and putting homes, vehicles and everything else in the girls name and then getting burned !!!   You have been warned !

The website itself  www.thailovelinks.com is a good way to meet females, but if they are con artists or not, you will have to find out for yourself.

Good luck !!!!!!!!!!!

I married the girl I met on ThaiLovelinks, and I'm 100% sure she was being constantly called by the person who runs this web site. She had to take out a loan to pay her fee's and was expected to pay again once she met a partner. Has anyone else made the trip to Khon Kaen and had the same experience as me. Did you ever make your trip to Khon Kaen to meet a girl Tricky?

Regards

I said it before, and I'll say it again !  The website www.thailovelinks.com not only does not charge the girls anything, they have no way of knowing if you meet anyone or not.

Blade is confusing this website for another. Understandably, as there are many...........cheers

Blade,

I have to agree 100% on this one. My current g/f I met via this site and like the above comment there is no way that any contact between 2 individuals could be known by the site. It could be likened to a paid for Yahoo or MSN chat. 2 people meet, chat and then can communicate or meet in any way they feel like it. The cost is the membership fee only.

Ross

I wrote to many people via ThaiLoveLinks, then went to Thailand for 10 week summer 2004 to meet them.  None mentioned anything about fees, except that one said it was free to the ladies and she assumed it was free to the men too.  I think the business is based in Australia, so i wonder how someone got entrepreneurial in Khon Kaen?
