Next time just give 5k. This is the correct fare

Bro nono thanks for sharing and congratulation for upgraded to silver card. You now not only can obtain free nite stay earlier, discount in massage, free transport to formosa, late check out at 3pm and still got laundry washed and room upgrade...

Don't know whether can flash the silver card for special handjob discount or not to the king massage cewek, hehe..

So far I only stayed 5 nites since early August and I have to stayed another 10 more nites in order to obtain silver card and must do it within 10 more months since upgrade card requires 15 nites within 12 months period start counting from the date of the first nite stay.

Just an additional comment. Have to be careful not to confuse between free night stay and upgrade card is that :

To obtain the silver card and free night stay of 150 points, you need to stay as a classic member for 15 nights in order to qualify for both.

But on the other hand, to obtain the gold card, you need to stay as a silver member for 15 nights but to obtain a free night stay, you only need to stay 12 nights as a silver card member example 12x13= 156 points.

Just to take note that upgrading card requires 15 nite stay regardless of the room you stay...

Ya, the route of the pink angkot starts from nongsa then to airport. After that will pass by Batam centre before reaching its destination at jodoh...

Sometimes waiting for angkot is easier than waiting for bus because angkot is plentiful as the white,pink,dark blue will pass by batam centre.

Bus sometimes arrive late and may wait at the bus stop for passeneger for quite long before it will leave.

Occasionally take cheap transport could achieve self satisfaction too..hehe

One angkot driver sent me from jodoh market to harbourbay and said up to me to give. Therefore I gave him 5k and he is damn happy because for a short journey of about 1.5km only.

During my another trip then I realised I have paid too much the last trip when I took the same journey again which cost me only 3k the second time as quoted by another angkot driver...

[PigletDiDi]

so the conclusion is either the pink or blue angkot will bypass Nagoya shopping mall. And i can alight at the satay food stall.
i still one more question, which color angkot can bring me from Nagoya shopping mall to bcs

She reads my mind but rejected mi by saying she not available. Rushing for time to the next joint, didnt nego with her. Haha.
Bro Tom, r we talking abt same lady?

Just to check any good massage places with syts and HJ services provided around batam ctr without taking cabs ?

Batam center is a very big place and everything including good food were all scattered very widely apart hence from point A to point B can be quite a distance away.

I try to put myself in your shoe to think some time ago before you asked that question today. W/o moving out of the hotel, and if I want a massage with special, I choose to bring the Massage Shops to me. I pick up my phone and dial some massage shops,check if they do outcall, but that wont guarantee me a SYT unless I have patronize the shop and a particular massage girl before. So what works for me may not work for you.

Looks like your post is under moderation when you wrote it,hence no one actually notice your FR. I do and i thank you for sharing.

It does looks you really drawn out a whole budget base trip on your FR here,hehehe...buy ferry tickets from carousell which would already save you some money. Book the shuttle service from Formosa hotel,you save yet another sum,hehehe...smart cheongster indeed.

That was probably becos you may have gotten your hotel via other online site? Not too sure on this,but if you are in Formosa Hotel during weekends,members also need to fork out 510k (460k during weekdays) too. So prices not too much of a difference.

Then saw couple of people going in and out and figured out that I'm at right place. Although, it later turned out to be a disappointment, as there were just 6 girls left at 12:30 pm. Total 5 milf & 1 semi milf. Mami quoted 1.3m for semi milf. But since that girl was showing no interest, decided to leave place. Without asking, mami brought down price to 1.0m but I left nonetheless.

Impressive, being new and yet has the ability to find Gold Bird,hehehe...to be honest,it isn't an easy task for someone who is new and it require some patience and time as compare to going to other booking joint.

Looks like mami trying to chop you. Most of the better girls there at most time were already pre-booked in advance.

Good to see a newbie having the confidence to walk to at least 2 booking joints. Base on the price quoted to you,i guess you visited Batam during weekends? Most newbies will have the tendency to forget to collect the joint's name card,glad to see you remembered. With this habit,it will help you in the long run in your future visit.

Probably its weekends,they didn't want to lower the price very much for you.

(at this point,i need to emphasis I am only guessing you go on weekend becos I see OKT keep quoting you weekend price from both joints)

That's a great feat from a newbie,bro. I am now guessing you speaks some level of bahasa or malay language.

40k for dinner?

Nice!

Hehehe...your girl got keep playing with her HP or not? You 1st trip to batam seems to work out fine. Good for you.

In any massage shops,booking joint and maybe even wechat and FL girls,their 1st quote will always be higher (which is quite common sense) and good to see you bargain the price down to a more normal rate.

Sorry for long post..

May you next trip to Batam be better than time round.

Cheers!

I took the pink Angkor opposite Batam Centre ferry terminal, and drop n front of bridge massage. Opposite bridge massage is Nagoya mall. Behind bridge massage is Formosa hotel. Hope this is clear.

Bro Tom, r we talking abt same lady?

Yup, short hair, petite size, round face, right? If so, we are aiming the same lady. Yes, she's not available for massage at May choice, you may book her overnight. However, she can only meet up after work at May choice. Short time quoted to me 500k, before nego. And, overnight, she ask me for price as she never do before. Haha... Guess she's too used to getting hit by customers. She told me 10pm finish work last week, but this week changed to 11pm and can only reach my hotel at 12am. Although I just reached here at 9pm, 3 hours is too much to wait. And, maybe due to the rain, at 9pm, yesterday still full of girls at most joints. Got mine from SK last night. Just sent her off 15 mind ago.

.....wait, do you mean the bakar stalls outside Nagoya mall? Didn't know can get those type of pricing there. That's even a greater feat than 40k

Not difficult to achieve that at Indorasa coffee shop, but for 2 paxes is a great feat. The drink alone is 8000rp a can.

.....wait, do you mean the bakar stalls outside Nagoya mall? Didn't know can get those type of pricing there. That's even a greater feat than 40k for 2 at Indorasa.

Pink Angkor drop at bridge massage side, not the satay stall side.

They are the 2 new joints, and what is the age range they having now.
Low quantity is ok but less syt then is no worth going there.
Till now kupu2 has some negative reviews, maybe Tom Cat is the lucky one always tio gua gua style. not troubles maker princess sickness or naughty hands.

May Choice: didn't get to visit last night, and looks like not today too cos will have a full day outing with the Medan girl I chat up at Batam Centre last night.

Sri Kandi: have a number of Mandarins speaking cewek, girls aged around early to mid 20s. My booking last night from here. I took her before, so was more aiming for performance than syt-ness. Try to approach the Mandarins speaking mami (小微). She more easy to nego. The other Javanese mami, more ngiao.

Kupu2: from their tulip days, I had been visiting them. So far, I can only say I've been very lucky. 5 bookings over the last 2-3 months and i only got the good attitude ones. And that's including the youngest (read - most expensive) girl in the joint. Talk to Mami Kiki. She easier to nego. Knn.. was literally flashing me her boobs last night when i was there, they still had about 7-8 girls.

Second night at Batam

Booked a 1.3 => 1 juta cewek from Happy8, and comes with motor too. Saved taxi money. 23 years old, good attitude, initial assessment is good wife material, but then I only spent 4 hours with her, so maybe the horn not out yet. Haha
