Pooh_75 0 Report post Posted March 16, 2008 The accounts person i spoke to say there is no notice of payment. Every month anytime within the month must pay thru AXS or their website, or go to Blk 125A Town council office to pay. Just now manage to get GIRO form from their office. One for my neighbour also.If u use AXS or credit card, must know ur reference number. I only found out from the reminder notice they sent me. I pay 52 dollars per month for 4 room.I also got fined $3. I'm very upset with the way the town council does things. Firstly, there is no notice of payment every month. They think everyone only have their bills to pay. How to remember??The worst part is after paying over $50 for the so call S&CC, the corridor outside my house is still so dirty after having moved in for over a month. No one comes and sweep or wash the area. Why are we paying S&CC when we have to sweep and wash the area outside our house on our own. We should all email / call the town council to voice our displeasure. Perhaps they will wake up their idea when they get an overwhelming number of residents from 79 complaining.... !!

coco_mybibi 0 Report post Posted March 16, 2008 Too bad I missed the gathering today. Having a fever and could not join today. I look foward to the next gathering.Btw, I came across a furniture distributor shop near my parent's place on Sat and I find the sofa designs are very nice and at reasonable price. Most of their sofas are designed and made in HK. I book my sofa, dining table and coffee table from them liao as the prices are cheaper than those I have seen at other places Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pooh, you're right. Since I moved in, the corridor is never free of junks. With the wind directions, it seems that all junks are coming to my neighbour's door step (directly opposite mine). No matter where i swept the junks to, i'll see them back again... I was just telling my sis this afternoon that i think i should feedback to town council...

gadgetman 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2008 Cannot resist posting this photo too! Another unofficial gathering of forumners at this ice-cream joint at Serene Centre along Bukit Timah Road. They serve very unique and great tasting ice-cream by the way...How's this for flavors selections? Teh Tarik, Horlicks (Yes Horlicks!), Nutella, Kahlua Latte...etc, etc?The shop's name is Island Creamery. We took and printed this photo there and the shop is supposed to putit up on the wall along with many other photos. Do keep a look out for it if you are going there!
