Vasantham Promoters, Arumbakkam, Chennai — Refused to return my advance

Address: #10c, 1 st floor, Babu Jagan Street, Kannan Bala Nagar, Arumbakkam, Chennai 6000-106
Website: www.vasanthampromoters.in

I saw the company ad while browsing Facebook. From that link, they got my contact details and I was continuously disturbed by Vasantham Promoters representative from different numbers and whatsapp to visit the site. Even though I informed them I had work in weekend and continuously called more than a month & begging for weekend visit.

As they advertised site is not in a well developed area & didn't mentioned the plot size in ad. Finally when I visited the site I wasn't interested in the site, since no other houses nearby and plot size is only 450 sq.feet for their ad price. Also in the same layout, they segregated into different price ranged plots and whatever plots we asked they informed like booked and showing interest to sold only backside plots or uneven size plots. I wasn't interested and inform them like I need to discuss with my family and price is too heavy for the plots location and undeveloped area. But one after one cone and introduce themselves and forced me to fix any plot and we can negotiate the price after speaking with managers. Later you can change the plot numbers after discussed with family.

So I just said plot #466 & asked them 4Lakhs instead of 5.5Lakhs. After discussion they agreed and forced me to pay a token advance and later you can change the plot if you want. Also for today booking customers only registeration & patta free. So i paid 20k advance through credit card and they written a receipt for that and put in a envelope and pasted. At the time of receipt writing itself, i asked them like why the rate we finalized not mentioned in the receipt. They said like other customers are there and if we written the rate others also asking and a representative lady named Shanthi informed herself and said you're my locality customer so we convinced manager for this rate. At that time I got confused why different rate for different customers. So for bargaining customers they fix some rate and rest paid full amount 5.5Lakhs. If price of the plots is correct, then why they reduced up to 1.5Lakhs. They can say rate is fixed or 5k or 10k discount should be given.

After that we returned home and later they regularly called and convinced me to choose a bigger size plots and in higher price category. Regularly sending me photos of vacant plots and due to this confusion further payment got delayed. Finally when I wasn't interested in bigger size plots, they informed like we didn't fixed that price. Then I informed like I already booked that in half minded, if you changed your words, kindly refund my money. Then they informed me to come to the office with the receipt. I also go there assuming either they will agree for that price or refund my money.

After long waiting they asked me to come to meet lady manager, but she speaks rudely like we didn't fix that price. At last we can fix 4.5lakhs (1, 000 x 450sq.ft), by the way of speech and changing words I decided not to had deal with that fraudulent company and asked them to refund my money. They asked for the receipt and at that time only I opened the sticked cover and gave the receipt to them. Then they told rudely amount is not refundable and it was mentioned in the bill. If you wish you can buy else you can leave. Else buy a different plots in low category which is not sold for a long time. Again the lady representative Shanthi convinced me to buy for her, since company scold her for fixing the rate. Based on her request, I increased another 20k & agreed to pay 4.2Lakhs. Again they said choose a different plot for that price else you can leave and we can't refund money. Nobody can take action against that and the points mentioned in the bill is legal.

For continuous marketing calls to disturb us and wasting our time to visit the site, 20k non-refundable money we need to pay and this is legal? During my visit to company another old lady who facing trouble to breathe also coming for refund and for her also they didn't issue refund. Seems like they're cheating many customers like this and after paying advance they increased their rates and refused to return the money. If T&C like that means they need to explain it to the customers and only accept money when customers willing to book the plot.

If their price is correct, why they need.to change price & force people to pay advance and after that forcing to buy at higher price. Now even if they give the plots for 3Lakhs I didn't want to buy from them. Since after that incident I reviewed many complaints online as well as in this website about the company. Many buyers complaint that they registered long back but still documents not.provided to them. Kindly do the needful to get my money back as well as others who rae affected by the company.

Thank you in advance. Expecting your legal action.
