The Consumers Association of Singapore says it’s received a lot more complaints about shady retailers at People’s Park Complex than those found in Sim Lim Square.
Today, the industry watchdog started to take action against two errant shops at the mall located in Chinatown, inviting both to sign a Voluntary Compliance Agreement (VCA) to stop carrying out unfair practices, with a deadline of seven days to comply.
Both Tele Infinity and Mobile Alliance had refused to pledge against bad business habits during their meeting with CASE, who are considering taking out an injunction against them should they refuse to sign.
Injunction proceedings have already begun on Sim Lim Square’s infamous Mobile Air Pte Ltd after they baulked at signing a VCA. The organisation admitted that the entire injunction process may take several months due to approvals needed from various relevant committees and government panels.
