      Yesterday I paid $800+ for enrichment centre fees and realized that the small piece of receipt did not have any breakdown. The centre is supposed to send me the e-receipt to my email but I did not receive it.

      So this morning, I called the centre for a detailed breakdown and was told that they did not receive any payment from me.

      It turned out that the $800++ I paid, apparently went to pay someone’s else bill!

      Hey! This is cheating isn’t it? If I didn’t ask for a breakdown, I would have thought that my bills are paid and had I thrown the receipt away, there would be no proof of my payment. My goodness!

      Should I make police report or...
      sounds scary.. .. lucky u happen to ask for breakdown . Any explanations of such incident - izzit sweep under \"human mistakes/errors \" then this staff cannot handle cashier
      u pay for a few classes?
      enrichment receipt must keep for a while

          agree, scary la..thanks lee yl for bringing it up. My side quite messy. Recently I was told havent pay up new term..I also dunno leh..asked dd if she receives the new term material..dd say yes..I have habit of just take the a loose chq from my wallet (kept for emergency use) to write..I better chk my bank movements also just in case..dd2 as amount is lower, I withdrew cash nearby centre for the recent one..
          yeah mp, the 800+looks like for a term..and it is group tuition 😓 told dd before since she dont really get much benefits from tuitions, end of year I can just give the money to her la 😂
          this kind of case, think should be easily settled by apologising de..

            Ya, very scary leh.

            I also don’t know how I ended up paying for someone’s else bill (according to the enrichment centre staff)

            Now my kids’ school fees (March and April) still outstanding hor. Don’t know where my $800+ went.

            Usually I have a habit of throwing away receipts by the next day. Heng I didn’t do it this time. And when the staff said that March fees I have not paid, I told them I think I did, but maybe the fees went to someone else’s account again?

            The staff who answered my call was also in a daze and just said sorry, didn’t advise me what to do next. DH asked me to block my credit card payments due to fraudulence fears.

                yl, did the staff said they will check and get back to you? If they are not doing anything about it. Then perhaps tell them you might need to go to the police report or make a case then.

                Alternatively, you can call up the bank and asked them for the past month transaction unless you still have the bank statement summary to prove that you have already made the payment.

                Once I had a scary incident. I lost my credit card without me knowing until DH asked me casually why I buy something at the toyrus when we have already stopped this practice totally. Of course my reply was no and we were shocked at the transaction price. Not cheap. It was $5xx. That was when I found out I have actually lost my credit card. *blur me right*.

                We quickly call the bank t cancel the card and report to police about the loss. Next we went down to Toyrus to report of fraudulent.

                After much investigation from the toyrus with the help of the police, they found the culprit. Money was returned to us. The fact that my stupidity of losing a credit card and someone actually used it to make payment.

                  pay by credit card? then shouldnt be difficult to check at their side I believe…maybe if cash then more work ba. Think you better call to talk to another staff first?

                    my goodness…a lesson learned here. Whatever the case here, better to keep the enrichment receipt for a least 3-6 months. SCARY!!!

                      if pay by cc , u can see the bank online unbilled statements
                      or show them cc bill when the statement comes

                        there should be ref no. tracing back against receipt at ctr shouldnt be very difficult..even cash payment can also trace back..if cant identify the exact day of payment at least the plus minus days..sure can zoom in and shortlist the few transactions to get checking started.
