It happens when i try to get to confirm with them on the table allocation. I saw that there are only 2 tables taken out of 30 tables and of coz, out of concern i asked them why are there only 2 tables taken?? And this is wat i received instead.

[ Jul 30 (5 days ago) Hi FizaJunior, Sorry the event will be postponed to 16 & 17 October 2009 as the Clarke Quay Management has let go the dates to other organiser. Sorry for the inconvenience caused. And also please choose your booth so that I can reserved it for you. Thanks. ]

Why didnt he inform me the tyme has been postponed when i was about to make payment and this is wat he replied.

[ Jul 31 (4 days ago) Hi FizaJunior, I am still negotiating with the Clarke Quay Management to continue holding the event on 14-15 Aug. Please choose a stall no 1st. Thanks. ]

Since this is the case, ive decided to ask for my refund. The reply is this.

[ Jul 31 (4 days ago) Hi FizaJunior, I think your email might abit slow in getting the emails i sent. So last conclusion is I am still negotiating with the Clarke Quay Management. Will send you the updates by Monday. Thereafter if the event is not on, I will do the refund to you. Thanks. ]

Today is Tuesday and i still have not received any news/updates/feedbacks/REFUND from the company. Is this right? Ive had my flea markets @ Clarke Quay with other organisers and this is the first tyme ive encountered such problems. Tats y i would like to find out from anyone else who encountered such problem.

Rob82lim, have you made the booking?

Have anyone else taken this space? Do let me know as well. Thanks.

Nope as the date crash with suntec.

thanks for your info.
i found this organizer a bit unreliable, that's y we hvnt booked any table yet.
few months ago they also post a clarke q bazar at $400 per table while others posted at $300.
after a while, the post just disappeared without any explanation.
only last week i get their email and saw their post about 14-15 august event.
they even post another one on september.

wish you luck fizabizshop on getting your money refunded

Hi Fiza,

I have already send you an email on the latest updates. Please check. Thanks.

Hi Aphrodite,

As I have posted previously, June is a peak period and the reason for increase in rental is the extra charge imposed by Clarke Quay Management, not by us. Reason why the other organiser is having it at a low price then is because it's organised by a school for their students as a project.

Hope this explains your queries and hope to gain your support in our events!

Hi Aphrodite, My bad for trusting a NEW company who in the end play me out! I wanted to get my money back but this is wat ive gotten from them.

[ Hi Fiza, I am sorry there is no refund made for cancellation and in the 1st place, I have waited very long for your payment to be made. After your initial payment of $225 on 23rd June, you only paid up the balance of $75 on 23rd July which is 1 month later. I can only transfer it to Sep's event. ]

The event is in AUGUST! And they have already made soooo much noise about me delaying the payment in JUNE ! and now this crap of non-refundable payment when its their FAULT for not informing us on the postpone of dates! If ive known about the changes of date way before i make the payment, do you tink i would still wan my refund for cancellation??!!!

This company is definitely unreliable and i hope the ADMIN is able to do something about this. I dont wan others to get cheated as i am now! And plus ive lost my HARD-EARNED S$300 for nothing!!!

Dear lleventsmarketing, i will check with Gmail on why am i the only one who didnt receive most of your emails esp on the changes of dates!

Good luck with your other events and dun wori, i will not 'make a big issue' in future coz this is my first and last time dealing with you guys.

Peace out!
