fillipino_wannabe Posted November 8, 2018 Posted November 8, 2018 (edited) Had it happen to me, searched around a lot and saw it happens to quite a few people, some with a valid reason, others not. He's lucky he's not stuck in their detention facility. Have to find out if he's on the blacklist, probably is. Lawyer will cost atleast 100k pesos to try and get it removed, probably about a 20% chance you pick a decent lawyer who doesn't just string you along. There's so much paperwork with about 5 different departments involved that it takes ages, took me a week to get everything finished after being told I'd already been removed from the BL. Then there's probably a fine aswell, I had to pay 30k pesos for a 'waiver fee' and 5k pesos express fee which didn't appear to be optional even though it was from the commissioners office lol. Even had to pay an extra months overstay fee because they messed up the form and made me wait another 2 days which put me over 1 months overstay lol.

If you do not know anyone it has happened to yet, just wait a while. I dont know any Roy's. My guess is that people with the same name as someone else that appears in a Interpol list or something could have issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean a lot people pass through and the name Singh for example must appear many times so why would they check unless they had information on a certain passenger.

davewe Posted November 8, 2018 Author Posted November 8, 2018 Ok to clarify. They are married and live in the US. She came a week ahead of him. But there are now rumors that the reason is known. Just a guess - he has a teen daughter and an ex-wife and there were tensions - but that’s just a guess. I do tend to fall on the side of if you’re flagged it’s probably not random. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Posted November 8, 2018 Posted November 8, 2018 I know I'm thick, but I can't imagine how an exwife can get you blocked in another country, if she filed some trumped up charge like kiddie fiddling, I'm sure he would not be allowed to leave the country, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
