I was sent an article entitled. Tale of corporate greed.
"Centrepay, AGL power company consulted it was wrongly taking social welfare payments from former customers but failed to stop these illegal actions, court hears."
This Story of business moral sin toward many thousands of underprivileged Australians using government legislationwas perpetrated over some many years and have been used by some pretty shady companies to abuse Australians vulnerable in our culture for no apparent reason other than plane corporate sin.
The baddest of these disreputable businesses is energy syndicate type companies AGL in one billing cycle illegally collected over three quarters of a million dollars from former unsuspecting residential customers and was advised with 24 hour updates and transactions created by the Australian Government via Centre-Pay, still failed to take actions to stop the wrongful withdrawals according to the court filings. At risk (incl. those from the disabled community) Australians who had ceased being clients and were illegally charged by this power and energy mafia type companies AGL.
Retirement on the East Coast.
My friends Davis and Joan had retired to the South coast where they had many happy memories and became part of a amazing community. They are a diligent couple who decided to invest in for their future income by putting their savings into investing in a home property.
Need for Proper Government Legislation to protect the Real Estate Rental Market.
Investigating these options and reading the clear legal language of these websites we approached one trusted corporate name Hooker where upon we entered into an exclusive Rental Management Agreement. Everything seemed to go well until we were notified that our rental property was to be vacated and we could inspect the property.
It was a complete disaster and the property manager Ethan Hood was completely unqualified the property was a mess... carpets that reeked of dog urine required removal and disposal, resurfacing and resealing the floor boards relaying new carpet along with thousands of dollars of repair. . His cavalier obtuse manner, attitudes and statements with regard to a property that my friends had cared for, about and spent many weeks and months preparing for the Rental market was now laid a wreck, carpets that and reeked of dog urine required removal and disposal. Sealing the floor boards relaying new carpet along with thousands of dollars of repair. I can still remember my friends face going white while recalling Me E Hood as a person who was completely out of his depth.
Despite the opinions and evidence of professional painters, decorators and other property professionals, he {simply denied the issues and claimed this is how the property was when originally rented to the tenants despite the actual evidence to the contrary|claimed the property did not smell and that the house was ready for rental. Me E Hood had failed to carry out basic and proper Tenant evaluations, ingoing property reports, ongoing property reports and outgoing reports. He failed to hold the tenants to account for outstanding rent and damages, and by extension the franchisee and L.J Hookers. I got the sense that instead of helping to rectify the issues and entering into a proper conciliation process L.J Hookers engaged high end lawyers to intimidate, mislead and and protect the company reputation...
The Corporate Playbook.
The response by Corporate L.J Hooker to the many failures by their property manager Ethan Hood was totally incomprehensible eliciting further underlying problems such as a lack of Corporate responsibility, morals and governance. Despite the clear Ruling by NCAT that showed without prejudice the damages suffered by Owners … this included but was not limited to;
1. Unpaid rent which required the owners to insist of holding the bond.
2. Damages to rental property which required holding the bond.
3. Release of Bond without proper investigation and evaluation.
4. Lack of ingoing report
5. Lack of ongoing report.
6. Lack of outgoing report.
7. Promise to Rectify damages etc. Broken.
8. Basic failure on all levels to uphold obligations of property management.
9. New Relationship with Ray White.
