Hello,
I have finally resorted to writing a review on this group as all our family members are exhausted, frustrated and are rendered helpless amidst no where.
Let me tell you in detail the process and the events.
Both of my husbands' and my parents saw this apartment, Ittina 'Abha' , Marathalli, Bangalore, during the month of mid of November 2007. They gave them the refundable booking amount.
Further on, I flew down from here to finish the paper work. After one whole week of running around for various things we finally signed the loan agreement with ICICI.
Then, a week later, the bank declined to give us the amount we asked for, though initially they promised to give it to us.
Now, Ittina staff, headed us to another bank. After long hours of discussion, we said that we will go ahead only if the loan amount is sanctioned.
Whilst all this was going on, I visited them at their luxurious office at Kormangala. During my visit they informed me that we had show to the bank that we have already made the down payment to the builder through a DD which ran into lakhs of rupees.
This is when we figured that things were not going right and decided to withdraw from buying the property as we found everything fishy. Post our writing to everyone, I had to return home.
This happened during the 2nd week of Dec 2007. The so-called refundable deposit has still not been refunded despite our daily calls and its been over 4 months.
Amidst this, I went again and pressurized them. I went as a customer who is willing to buy a property and thats when I could actually meet that lady who was supposed to give us the money.
She finally gave me a cheque and I thought it was all over, only to realize that it bounced.
This happened a month ago. After repeated calls and mails, they told us that the company has had an
Income Tax raid and that all accounts have been freeze. We do not know as to how far that is true.
However, they have now promised to give us a DD. I do not know how far they are going to keep up their word.If they do then I will update that in this review. They are scary, irresponsible people out there, they keep calling you until you buy the property or u keep giving them all the money they ask for. Once you are done or u withdraw...they are rude to the extent that they hang the phone on your face or dont bother answering. And people whom you are asked to contact and who are following ur case will suddenly quit the company and you are put onto some one new and everything starts afresh. Wonder why this doesnt happen when you are in the buying process.
*BEWARE.
*This bunch of people are rude and ruthless with customers.
Please think and read a lot before you get into anything.
Please Take care.
- Thank You! We appreciate your effort.
