In Reply to: we have been paying.... posted by beau on Thursday, 18. June 2009 at 20:20 Bali Time:
lately.... only the person actually making the SIM is allowed in. They let my 3 year old son in when he was crying outside for me .. but wouldnt let my pembantu join him. There is nobody hanging around looking to "speed up the process" for you now. They have a flow chart outside showing how long it should all take and mine took exactly 40 minutes as per the chart. I did need some help with the form, though I speak Indonesian I find "formal" Indonesian difficult. One of the police on the door was happy to help me.
Last year I paid more after having been brought upstairs and having "special help" but I was more than happy with how my renewal went last month.
