Bukit Panjang condo resident's car gets wheel-clamped 'for no reason'

STOMPer ChinEk was left bewildered by a decision by the estate management to clamp his car inside a condominium in Bukit Panjang 'without any warning'.

According to the STOMPer, he was given a visitor's parking slip but got his vehicle clamped still.

The STOMPer wrote:

"I am a resident staying at the Cashew Heights condominium.

"My car was clamped with no warning at all.

"The management refused to unclamp my car unless I paid $107 as the unclamping fee.

"They allowed me to take a visitor's parking slip yet they still clamped my car.

"Not trying to sound unreasonable but how can they clamp with no reason at all?"

Firstly, you are a resident with the 4th car. You pose as a Visitor and declare(stupid of you to admit) that you have abused the system. After being clamped, you Stomp and KPKB.

You then try to justify your actions by saying that there are many empty lots and you are not inconveniencing others -this is not relevant and provides for a lousy excuse.

While you're at it, please look yourself in the mirror and reflect upon your deeds seriously and ask yourself if you have brought this upon yourself.

Pardon me, I don't understand, you buay song with the committee, or with yourself by stomping? The committee is doing their job weeding out free-loaders, what's wrong with that? Just because you think that there is enough parking lot and you can abuse it? Which you have admitted. So if one resident has 10 cars, does that mean he also can park 10 cars there because he thinks enough parking lot leh. Looks like your stomping has backfired!

Erm..

firstly..
I believe you did not tell them that your cheque had bounced when you made the payment..
Also not to mention that your household has your unit leased out..
Please dont make this any harder for yourself..
Such details should not be leaked out less the whole condo knows that you are trying to skip the fees payment and enjoy the facilities the rest are paying for..

And I belived that the white piece of paper on your windscreen states the REASON(S) for clamping your car.

"If your system is flawed change it, if your rules are not good enough, amend it"
Now they are doing their job by clamping your car.
Then you want them to be more flexible.
And you agreed you are abusing the system.

Very contradicting leh!

You are a resident there doesn't mean you can park any amount of car you have. Does that mean that I got 5 family member, I'm eligible to park 5 cars? If the rules state that you have to buy season parking for each car, than jolly well buy the season parking. You deserved what you got for abusing/testing their system. Don't complaint!

@ ChinEk,
Guess I can understand ur predicament a little better with ur explanations.
Do agree e management could exercise some flexibility in ur case.
Maybe u could offer to pay a HDB season parking rate for ur (4th) car which
1. Prevents nearby residents from abusing a free-rider situation as it's no longer free.
2. Give them justifications to fend off other residents who pay e same maintenance fee but do drive or have lesser no of calls.

Please realise i am also a victim of the people who don't stay here but uses the parking here. If your system is flawed change it, if your rules are not good enough, amend it. You cant just tell me because i am driving the 4th car you dont let me park because i am not the owner... If there are lots be a little bit more flexible, end of it all we just want a better community, not trying to create trouble. In all fairness, did i inconvenice anybody in the process of parking? Anybody genuinely looking to park? I do not think so, if yes, you can call me, my number is on my windscreen, i'll shift away for your convenience.
