푸에서 서양인 관광객이 거의 3억 동을 되찾았습니다

Theo thông tin từ Công an đặc khu Phú Quốc, ông Terry Wayne Furssedonn và bà Debra Churchill (quốc tịch Anh) gặp sự cố tài chính do sai sót trong quá trình thanh toán.

When waving a customer's card to pay for a room during their stay at a resort in group 3, Cay Sao neighborhood, Ham Ninh ward, a receptionist mistakenly filled in the amount of 292.425,000,000 VND. Meanwhile, the actual room fee that tourists had to pay was only 29,242,500 VND.

Although the accommodation facility committed to refund the difference within three days, by the deadline, the tourists had not yet received their money back. According to feedback, the resort gave many reasons, including not receiving this amount of money in their account.

After that, Mr. Jamie Farrar, a friend of the two tourists, reflected the incident through the online feedback channel of tourists managed by the Phu Quoc Special Zone People's Committee, through the phone number of the Special Zone Police officer.

Immediately upon receiving the information, the Chief of Phu Quoc Special Zone Police directed the Police force to coordinate with members of the "Tourism Rapid Response Team" to quickly verify and clarify the incident.

With the spirit of maximizing support for tourists, functional forces have directly worked with tourists, complainants and resort representatives to clarify the cause, and at the same time requested accommodation establishments to prepare a written commitment on a specific return time, avoiding prolongation and affecting the tourist's schedule.

By January 19, 2026, the entire amount of nearly 300 million VND has been fully refunded to tourists by the resort representative.

After receiving the money back, Mr. Terry Wayne Furssedonn expressed his gratitude for the timely support: "We are very impressed with the dedication of the government and the'Tourism Rapid Response Team' in Phu Quoc. The police officers not only communicate well in English but are also very enthusiastic, understanding and support us like friends. After this incident, I feel more secure knowing that Phu Quoc always has a force ready to protect tourists in all emergency situations.

The "Tourism Rapid Response Team" model being implemented in Phu Quoc contributes to building an image of a friendly, professional and reliable destination in the eyes of international tourists.
