Dear all,
I really need your help. Last month, I visited Bali and forgot my Ipad in there. Now my local friend in Bali keep it to me but she cant send it back to Vietnam because she said all delivery service via plane rejected this item due to its battery cant be take off.

So I am very appreciated if anyone have a plan to visit Bali in future, and can bring it back to me.

Sorry if this thread bothers you.

Dear Piyo,

A bit worry for you...i dont mean all people are bad..
But like this you can take Risk...if s.o tell you that they will go Bali & can help you bring your Ipad...and they run away with ur Ipad...that can happen ..

Careful.

I also woudn't trust people to bring my Ipad again. Cant ur friend visit u and bring it then?
Ask one u really trust like friends and family because strangers (Hey its an IPAD!!!) would not return it to you unless they are nuns or monks...

In Germany we have a Service where Flight attendants get ur stuff and deliver it home to your family. We know her thats why we can trust her...

Thank you for prompting me. I will be careful but I still need someone's help. In my case, I already met some new ppl, strangers but they are so kind wit me even we did not know each other before then I hope I still can meet good ppl  in future:D.  The same like your kindness wit me.
Many thanks :D

Hi,I think your friend lie to you.You should ring the airline and ask them yourself.I have bought 5 laptops,ipads,notebooks sent from overseas by plane .

Dont trust strangers with your ipad.If they are going from VN to Bali,then I would say they will keep going.

I think you should google before you accuse people of lying. On the DHL website it states..

Important!
Lithium Batteries that are known or suspected to be defective or damaged present a high safety risk to personnel and property, and are not permitted on aircraft under any circumstances.

When it is known or suspected that a defective or damaged Lithium Battery is enclosed within a laptop, mobile phone or other device, the battery must be removed before DHL can accept the shipment.

well done.So tell me.I bought an ipad from china(plus many other laptops) on the web.It arrived damaged.The screen was cracked.I sent it back.It was replaced an I was given another.Oh and another thing.People who lie,steal.

Dear all,
I got my ipad yesterday and Cheeha helped me to bring it back from Bali. Even I never meet him before. So I think sometimes believing in stranger is a good opportunity for you to make new friend :D. actually, as I said, I met some strangers and they are very good guy so this time, I am lucky again :D
anyway, thank you so much @Cheeha. I dont know what should I do for you to express my appreciation.
