it is my mistake that i did not write on the cheque for road tax as it can be paid online. so if pay online, the cheque can be bank in to the company.
i do understand that sometimes the post office queue can be long, so try to be nice by allowing them to use online facilities.
also sometimes there is giro arrangement between 2 companies as such there is no need to visit the insurance companies physically to settle payment. also with snail mail, sometimes mail either get lost or can get delay.
Wah. Siao lah so many problem. In the end, you paid him full year amount (which he bank into dunno where) and paid 1/2 year for you only?
I also heard many PI horror stories. My friend paid money and was delayed 3 months and many calls then the car arrived. Somemore, wrong colour. Can only such thumb!
Go to their company and make a big fuss out of it. Sometime you got to do this in order for justice to be done. I did that before in the past relating to my car...haha
Bro Triton, sorry to hear abt yr negative experience. The employee may have committed a crime but that's up to the relevant authorities to investigate. IMHO, you may wish make a police report. No need to give face to the company. Then bring the police report to the notice of the PI's management. See what they have to say. This police report will come in handly in the event should you opt for private legal counsel to sue the company for any damages.
In 2009, a friend paid $5000 cash cheque (big NO-NO!) as deposit for a subaru. Anyway, the deal fell through and it took almost 3months for the company to refund my friend.
You may alternatively wish to seek assistance from the Small Claims Tribunal located at the Subordinate Courts@Havelock Road. Cost is not expensive but waiting time is pretty long. For claims of not more than $5k, lodgement fee is about $10, more than $5k but less than $10k is 20 and if it more than$10k but less than $20k is 1% of claim amount. Let us know how it works out for you. Best wishes.
