Victim of misleading information
*SOLVED

2

I'm one of those people who has become a victim of such misleading information First of all I want to voice my disgust with Flexi Club consultants who go out and do presentations to potential customers on false premises. I'm one of those people who has become a victim of such misleading information. In December 2010, I was called by a consultant of Flexi Club. She used the Port Owen premises and gave me a business card from another consultant - Winnie Nel. But the lady who presented the special to us gave her email address: iqrah.[protected]@yahoo.com Needless to say that I don't get any response on this email address. She scheduled a meeting with myself and my husband on a Sunday during our holiday at Port Owen. She told us that flexi club is running a special package for valuable customers (as we already belong to Flexi Club and already own points) So therefore we qualify for this perceived special, we were required to pay what was said to be a once of fee of R 3863 and a service fee of R1660 (annually) less R600 discount for members who pay via debit order. So we signed a debit order form for this annual fees of R1060. She told us that the other figures reflected on the contract were not part of the special, therefore they will not have any bearing on the deal, but the form they use was just a standard form. In March I got a call from one of the consultants asking for a payment of R171.00 that was still due, I then question the amounts that she was referring to. She told me that this was a short payment of what we paid that day. I have asked her to send me a statement and bank details so that I can sort this out. The next month they called me again about a monthly payment of R2890 that did not go through per debit order. I told her that I don't know about any further costs and I surely don't know about this R2890.00. She told me that this is a monthly payment for 11 months as per the contract we signed. I told her that we did not sign for any additional costs, as we were told by Iqrah Solomons we only had to pay a once of payment of R3863 and for the next year Flexi club will use our points as the need points for other members. By doing this our account will be credited. Also with this special we will receive 4 free weekend away holidays as she has to give them away. This we haven't received either ! When I checked my bank statements I saw that there have been two deductions from Flexi Club in April'11. One of R3263 and another R2890.00. In May one of the ladies phoned me again and I told her that I am still waiting for a copy of that contract and the signed debit order where we agreed to pay R2890.00 for 11 months, because I know we haven't signed for any of these amounts. I informed her of my intention to cancel and she told me it cant be done. They will summons me and I have to go to court to state my case. For May I have stopped the debit order and emailed Iqrah Solomons to contact me and explain to me why she sold us a special with a once off fee, if this was actually false information and illegal. But I have not received any reply from her, so I believe the email address she gave me was also false. All I have is a business card of Winnie Nel from Port Owen, where the deal was done. I want to know why Flexi Club send consultants to use false premises and give false information to people and when we query this, no one is able to assist and sort this out. I request that this false contract must be cancelled and the two debit orders in April taken out of my account must be refunded. And I still request a copy of the signed contracts and debit orders where it states that we will have to pay another R31 790, after we were told we only have to pay a once off fee of R3863.oo. I will take this to court if I needed be. Winnie Nel, sorry to involve you in this, but your office and business card was used for this illegal sale. Kind regards Petra Zulch
