This is a direct contempt of the claim tribunal and the system, which cant do a thing about the coins.

 

it talks about payment but not sure about refund [sweatdrop]

 

CURRENCY ACT(CHAPTER 69)

 

(3) Coins issued by the Authority, if the coins have not been illegally dealt with, shall be legal tender up to their face value in Singapore as follows:

(a)
in the case of coins of a denomination exceeding 50 cents — for the payment of any amount;
(b)
in the case of coins of a denomination of 50 cents — for the payment of an amount not exceeding $10; and
(c)
in the case of coins of a denomination lower than 50 cents — for the payment of an amount not exceeding $2.

Another Sim Lim incident: Student reduced to tears after being charged $1,000 for warranty fees for iPhone 6

 

SINGAPORE - Shops at Sim Lim Square may have made more than one customer cry.

A 19-year-old undergraduate was reduced to tears at Mobile 22, after being told she had to pay $1,000 on top of the $999 she had paid for an iPhone 6.

This comes after a Vietnamese tourist cried and knelt down to beg the staff of another shop, Mobile Air, for a refund after he was told to pay an additional $1,500 as warranty fees for an iPhone 6.

The Consumers Association of Singapore has received 9 complaints against Mobile 22 between June and September this year. There were 14 complaints chalked up against Mobile Air in the same time period.

The international student, who did not want her name or school to be revealed, said that she went to the shop located on the first floor of Sim Lim Square on Oct 9 after checking many other shops round the island. She agreed to pay $999 for the phone.

The salesman told her that the warranty would cost $39.90, an amount she found reasonable. But she got a shock when she was charged $1,000 on her debit card for warranty fees alone.

"There was an 'x' between the 39.90 and 24 months that the seller had very strategically covered with his finger while urging me to sign the document," she said in an email to The Straits Times.

"I'm a middle class student from India, I barely had money to buy the phone let alone pay for this," she said.

When the staff said they would not return her the money, she started begging them and burst into tears as the money was meant for her school tuition fees. They ignored her and even yelled at her, she said. Eventually, they charged her $551 instead of $1,000.

The incident has left the student broke, and she is surviving on meals that cost between $3 and $4, she said, adding that she did not know of any way she could seek redress.

"That day still haunts me. It was my worst experience in this country for I was told that Singapore was a safe city and incidents like these don't occur," she said.

When asked about the incident, an employee at Mobile 22 said that she was not free to to answer questions from The Straits Times, and added that the shop owner was not around.

He had been ordered by the court to pay about $19,000 to a car dealer.

But unhappy at how he had been treated by the car dealer, the customer stormed to the Exotic Motors showroom with the money on Tuesday (Nov 4).

The surprise: It was all in coins.

The man, who only wanted to be known as Mr Ong, said he did it because the car dealer had "made me look like a fool for the past 1.5 years".

The car dealer, however, refuted the claims and shot back, saying Mr Ong had been a bad customer.
