Well, yesterday FPT blocked access to the internet. Odd since they told me that I needed to pay my bill on the 26th of every month. Each month it seems to get moved up a day. I now need to pay it by the 23rd which is no problem. I was lazy last Saturday morning so I never paid my bill. My fault.
I think many people were caught by surprised as well. Normally the FPT office in the Tan Binh District where I pay my bill is empty. At 9AM, it was crowded. Wow. Took 30 minutes for me to finally pay my bill. Normally it takes me less than 5 minutes.
Anyway, my internet connection is back 🙂 Pay bills on time.
I got my water bill today, 84,000 VND. Landlord has to pay part of it but the electricity was lower than expected. I will need to ask him for about 300,000 VND so he should be happy.

They don’t come knocking on your door to collect the bill?
I get waken up every odd Sunday at 7am by the utilities collectors.

Hey D, I wish they did. Only the garbage collector and water guy collect the bill at my house. For electricity, internet and my phone bill, I have to go to the office and pay it myself. I was told I can do it all online now with HSBC but I do not have faith with online banking here yet 🙂
