A contributor wants to warn others who are intending to rent an office space in Ubi Centre. According to screenshots sent to us, the Ubi landlord allegedly did not return the tenant's deposit after the 2-year lease was over. The tenant has been chasing for the $3000 deposit since August 2019, but the landlord has been making excuses that he "has no money to return" even though he has rented out four other office spaces.

The Covid19 pandemic has hit the taxi business hard in Singapore. Empathising with the situation, a kind Transcab passenger gave her taxi driver $90 tips for a 9-minute ride which only cost $10.47. No, it was not a mistake, it was intentional.

Singapore-based company PopScoot, started in April this year, will bring the service to downtown commercial clusters and the heartland in September. The e-scooters will cost $2 for 30 minutes, with the first 10 minutes free of charge. By the end of August, four sites will start off first as docking stations. The four sites are at ManuLife Centre, Republic Plaza, Tiong Bahru Plaza and City Square Mall.

It was also reported that the suspect was sleeping in the corridors and staircase landing of the block for two years, before Roslan invited him to stay in his flat about six months ago. He had told his neighbours that he invited the man in as he pitied him.

A netizen complained about a faulty lock for his new flat which caused him to waste a lot of time and griped that HDB should at least have sent an officer down to check. Why are new flats not done up properly nowadays?

A 30 year-old man had posed as a housing agent and collected fees from unsuspecting clients before he was caught by the Singapore Police Force. According to a police news release, the man had posed as a fake agent between May 2017 and July 2017 and scammed several victims who had placed advertisements online for rental of their units.

26 year old Yap Jun Cheng was sentenced to 14 years jail and 22 strokes of the cane for raping a woman back in 2013. At the time, the Malaysian woman was only 20 years old and was in Singapore to look for a job and a rental flat. Yap was then serving his NS with the SCDF. Yap had been talking to the victim on Facebook for some time before offering to show her around Singapore. Upon meeting for the first time, he coerced her to his house in Tampines where he raped her twice and threatened to kill her. He also asked her to cook for him without her pants. His lawyer said he was remorseful for his actions but the incident had reportedly left the victim deeply traumatised.

Redditor BurstJoe's wife spotted these ofo bike being parked indiscriminately in the lift of their HDB block. As she was pregnant, she was unable to move the bikes out of the lift on her own. She took photos of the bikes being parked indiscriminately and asked her domestic helper to help carry them out. It is unclear why anybody would park their rental bikes in the lifts.

This is the reason why Singaporeans can't have good things. I found this bike brutally ripped apart in Taman Jurong Estate.

I found this Indian senior consultant IT guy who wants to rent it . He bargained for it and I decided to rent out 1200 for the whole unit to him and his gf (from Laos). She is here on holiday. We signed a contract for 2 months. I printed out the standard template agreement from ERA and let him sign. There was no agent involved. I did it myself. By right on the 10th (couple of days from now) he is supposed to start his tenancy, my housing agent then told me he found a buyer for me already and also then told me actually it's not legal to rent my place for less than 6 months in Singapore. All these I didn't know because it's the first time I am renting short term for my HDB. I don't wanna do something illegal either. I quickly told my Indian tenant I cannot rent to him anymore and was willing to return him his money immediately but he was very unhappy and wants me to compensate him at least 600 to 700 dollars (or possibly more) for inconvenience and if i don't comply to his amount of money he will go to legal department and HDB to complain about me. He was very aggressive towards me.
