Small businesses are trying their hardest to survive, and people want to break the contract they made for the booking to get their money back so they can capitalise on the situation and increase their stock portfolio. Lovely.

Not necessarily so. For us to do transactions without the physical card present is mostly impossible with all banks in Indonesia, for those banks that would do it (from memory only one) they wanted us to deposit a sizeable bond at the bank and sign an agreement stating that we basically would...

You wouldn't believe how many people ask us to write fake letters saying they lost their camera on a trip. It amazes me every time.

This is what most operators want to happen, if you make a successful claim then perfect. If you don't manage to make a claim, maybe contact the operator after this has all died down and who knows what they might be able to do for you on a future booking. I'm not suggesting linking any future...

I'm not suggesting to defraud, just because a company gave one person a rescheduling/refund doesn't mean they would be able to do it for everyone. But the insurance agent might use that as a reason not to pay out. Defrauding would be to receive a refund and then still make a claim. Sticking to a...

Hi Guys, A comment from the other side of the fence :) I've quoted the post below, but it applies to a lot of the anger in this thread. If an operator replies to you email saying that there is no refund but can reschedule, then there is 0% chance of your insurance paying out - as they will...

Hey Freewillow, Glad you got home safely, and survived your dry week with us in Lembeh. For your info and anyone else on this thread. There was a 'medium level fanfare' last Wednesday for a new deco chamber being opened in Manado. It certainly looks the part from the pictures floating...

I just did a night dive and it was between 23 and 26 according to the computers on the dive... Bbbbbrrrr. I'm hoping it will improve to Mike's suggestions.. But the wind is still howling right now. With regards to photo pros: Eco divers, Froggies, Lembeh Resort and NAD all have people on hand...

In the post above, for me :) ---------- Post added April 15th, 2014 at 06:48 PM ---------- Here's the URL if that will not load for you: Diving Raja Ampat on Vimeo

Hi, Here is an edit from a short movie I made from a trip around Raja Ampat in Feb 2014. Black Manta was great, as was Cederic their Cruise Director. http://vimeo.com/91676724

Anyway, for June / July we are guaranteeing it for all our guests with mature, experienced guides if anyone is interested. ---------- Post added April 15th, 2014 at 06:06 PM ---------- Yep, many of us offer it if we have spare guys around the resort. We are actually doing it at the moment...

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I'll post another one from Raja Ampat shortly, and now i'm working on the next Lembeh video. Some new footage mixed into a different storyline. BaitBall, I remember your story :) A short while after I got the camera back, my little one got nailed by a box...

Hi All, I haven't posted in this section much but here is a video from Lembeh that i made... The caveat here is I do own my own boats so I can go off exploring :) All shots made within 1 mile of Lembeh Island. https://vimeo.com/85638611

Hi, NAD is offering 2:1 guest to guide ratio for double occupancy bookings in June / July in case anyone is interested. North Sulawesi is a great destination. You should give it a try if you haven't already! :) NAD Lembeh Blog » Summer Promo ? 2:1 diveguide ratio

Hi, I got a new PMV and im having trouble calibrating it. I can get it to pop open at 180 bar no problem, But once it opens it sticks and does not close again until i drain quickly down to 0 bar. THe PMV kicks in at about 120 if i do a rapid decompression via the fill whips. So to summarise...

double post :s

Hi There, What time of year are you thinking to visit? (Makes a difference - if we're quiet we have more tanks available so can offer more open housereef opening times). For the housereef dives, most places in Lembeh have a reasonably good housereef dive. Be sure to contact the resorts and...

Hi Guys and Girls, If you're looking for a short break in the new year the photographers amongst you may be interested in this: 18th to 25th February 2012. 18th Arrival Day: 6pm Night Dive 19th Transition Day. 3pm Afternoon Dive, 5pm Dusk Dive, Dinner, 10pm Night Dive 20th Dusk Schedule...

Hi There, The guys above have said some good itineraries. You might also want to consider the East side of Lembeh, it has nice corals and walls and the weather is favourable to doing this day trip at the moment. The Wind is from a Northerly direction for the last week or so - maybe check...

Hi Alex, Thanks for the nice review, were happy that you had I nice time and took the time to write on here, hopefully we'll see you again soon :) We just found a wonderpus with eggs which was awesome. Hopefully you guys can head back in January and find the Bluerings? (They started appearing...
