His loved ones are now begging online trolls to stop leaving ridiculous comments on posts asking for information.

Simon’s cousin Natalia Lou posted on Facebook saying: “We don’t need ridiculous comments or negative b******t from anyone.

“We just need to find Simon.”

It comes after Simon’s sister Sarah Robinson Dale, posted an update on her brother who is now believed to have caught a flight from Thailand to Finland.

She said on a recent Facebook post: “We now know he boarded the flight to Helsinki on July 26 but he did not take the connecting flight to Manchester.

“Please keep sharing.”

A flyer Sarah shared on Facebook said Simon’s phone had been switched off and that he hadn’t made any contact with his family or friends.

Simon was originally feared to have vanished in Bangkok with his distraught family believing he never boarded a plane back home on July 26, despite his phone pinging minutes from the airport.

In a Facebook post, Sarah said: “We have received confirmation that Simon did board the flight on the 26th July.

“A massive thank you to everyone that has shared and the kind people that have found this information out as the authorities at both sides haven’t done anything.

“I am waiting for a call back from the police and embassy in Helsinki.”

South Yorkshire Police confirmed Simon’s case had been reported to them but said they hadn’t issued their own missing person’s appeal.

Sarah said the information about Simon hopping on a plane out of Thailand came despite the fact “UK police confirmed he didn’t”.

It comes after a man claiming to be a Thai immigration officer told them he did in fact board a plane.

It’s believed he took a Finnair flight from Bangkok-Helsinki, but never hopped on a connecting jet into the UK.

Simon, from Skegness in Lincolnshire, originally flew to Thailand on July 22 and wasn’t due to come home until August 3.

But on July 26 he phoned his girlfriend to let her know he was flying home early, according to The Lincolnite.

He hasn’t been heard from since.

Simon’s pal Sam Champ had taken to social media to raise awareness.

He wrote: “One of my dear friends has gone missing in Bangkok, he hasn’t been heard from since the 26th of July.

“He was supposed to board a flight that day and he didn’t show up. It was his 27th birthday yesterday and everyone is growing very concerned.

“He has been reported as a missing person.

“I’ve attached a picture of him, his name is Simon Robinson and he’s from Lincolnshire.

“If anyone could share this post onward to anyone in Bangkok or Thailand I’d be so grateful.”

The Foreign Office said it stood ready to assist any Brit on overseas soil but stopped short of commenting on Simon’s case.

International police organisation Interpol said it wouldn’t comment on specific cases unless there were “special circumstances” or approval from the missing person’s country.

Another Brit vanished in Sardinia in July.

Michael Frison, 25, was said to have left his home on the Italian island “undressed” before disappearing, according to his worried mum.
