ahockz 1 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 too long scare later PC hang all gone so submit first :) To Sum up, 15% down payment - Company 30% start work payment - HIM 15% progressing patment - HIM Haulage Service - HIM Electric Work - HIM Lightning + fan - HIM Plumping Work - HIM Painting Work - HIM Door - HIM False Ceiling & L-board - HIM Miscellanrous - HIM Aircon - HIM Total payment made to him, is already total sum of reno. Give me the schedule by 28 Nov 2008 will COMPLETE everything. After ceiling and electric work done, see no progress of his promise next item aircon to be up. Then his company called up check if we had made any payment to company for start work. Called him up, he said he run into some problem w his company but he will still try to complete my reno ASAP. Nothing is DONE, call him since nothing is done, i WANT TO CANCEL EVERYTHING from him less the ceiling which he did. He said ok, but need some time then can return the money back to me. Ask why since he ORDER nothing, DID nothing, no resaon. He write a undertaking stated that he will return money to us, if not we can take legal action against him. (truly i also don understand why i should take his undertaking since even he got write or no write i should be able to take legal action against him if i wan to). Ask for his address, keep saying he need to ask his landlord first. Any forumer got advice . . . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
applefreak 1 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 oh dear, that really don't sound good try to hound him for the return of your money Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ahockz 1 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 yup, done that. He promise to return part of the $$ before 16 Dec(doubt that happen). Anyway, his boss sms me that he already made police report on this guy. Now only depend on us if we going to make the police report. It is only because he SAID he will return, and make his first return on 16 Dec, that why i hold on, and not be make the police report. What else can i do less make police report?

pinkpetter 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 (edited) I think you can make the police report already. Even the boss has made. It's a hopeless situation. Even if he return PART of the money then the rest le? Not to mention he delay your renovation process. Good luck! haiz.. Just a question.. when you paid to him.. no receipt at all?

ahockz 1 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 actually i heard from the boss it a common problem in this industury. Therefore it is important NOT to pay to any ID any CASH. Rather pay by check or nets or cash with receipt from the company. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
