    I am actually searching for an agency who has packages offer to Oceanbay resort in Bintan Indonesia, I have searching for so long and finally I come about this website http://www.oceanbaybintan.com/index.html.

    I found the contact in this website and emailed them for inquiry, they responded to me with information that I am looking for. We have some email exchange and it's about to confirm and finalize the deal.

    However, when I am asking how to finalize and payment, the guy from this agency told me I can either pay by bank transfer or drop by their office. I always not trust bank transfer thing so I op for go to their office so I asked for the address. That guy give me their office address as follow:

    kaki bukit ave 3 Kb1 Building 03-17

    Is there anyone in here ever booked any travel packages with this agency? Is this agency trustworthy? Please advise me. Thank you.

    I don't know it's trustworthy or not but I wouldn't send a bank transfer, go to the office and have a look... if it looks dodgey, well you know what to do.
