interesting logic & statements by defaulters

recently MC members have few interesting conversations with some defaulters, these started when the defaulters failed to get the motorcycle T&G tag from the office, & took the MC members to task.

most of them do have cars, and as they have some outstanding SC payment with the management, ended up the car T&G card were barred, then hv no choice but park their cars outside, but still managed to drive their motorcycles into Vista compound before we implement the motorcycle T&G system, but as now they do facing some problem in the this area as the guard told them the grace period will be until 15/2, after the date their motorcycle will not be allowed to come in.

some went to the office & settle the debt, then collected the T&G tag for their bikes, some complained that they can't settle the debt in one shot, so the management staff asked them to sign contract, 1st payment RM500, then subsequent month RM200, failing to observe this will hv their T&G tag barred, so they too took the tag & start using it...

but also a few, as mentioned earlier, took MC members to task, gave us many excuses for why they didn't (or should not) pay their SC (service charge), of course this kind of conversation is always unpleasant one....

few said they have been facing the leaking problem at their ceiling, & if management do not help them to patch the leak, then it's only fair for them not to pay the SC, we told them the leakage is due to the upper floor pipe or floor problem, it's only right for them to settle the problem with the upper floor neighbor, we only can help to bring them together & talk, but hv no right to instruct any party to do the repair for this as it is not a common property, some accept our explanation, but some not so convinced.

another one failed to get the tag, and of course didn't pay SC also, told us that we should allow his vehicle to come in coz he has bought the car parking lot from the previous owner, we felt sorry for him, and advice him to talk to his lawyer to get back the parking lot payment coz obviously if what he said is true, then he was cheated by the seller.

also some complained abt the condition of the lift, corridor light, dogs, cats, monkeys, vendors......etc, what they tried to say is as long as they have found some fault then it will qualify them not to pay the SC....

most of us in the committee are NOT trained to argue when facing this kind of peoples in this kind of situation, so we only can tell them the standard answer, everybody need to pay SC or else the management will not have enough fund to upkeep the facilities here, but this answer would not satisfied them as they will come up with other argument such as fund mismanaged, ineffective vendors, & other baseless accusation, few occasions we ran out of patient & suggest them to sack us in the coming AGM or EGM as we have failed in our duties in their eyes....
