I pay around the same as just quoted by a couple of other regular posters for good service, but for zero service I will go right down.
If I sense that there is an attitude problem or similar I abort quickly & politely tell the boy to shower / get dressed and give him a small tip, right down to 100Baht or even zero baht.
Recently at Suriwongse hotel, the boy announced (before removing his clothes) that he wanted to watch the football ("It will be finished in one more hour"), then decided he would smoke cigarettes, even though I had asked him not to smoke as he was getting ready to lite up. Then he rang room service and ordered an expensive meal and 3 beers, luckily I grabbed the phone quickly enough to cancel the order.
He left quickly with zero bah, but asked me if I would come back tomorrow night to off him again.
