I just sorry to hear that. For those have suffered big/small loss, look forward and don't be too sad anymore. Believe in these bad people will pay back in one day. Take care

QUOTE(acks2257 @ Jul 12 2013, 05:03 AM) Hi both, Im so sorry to hear that. Really didnt expect that he is a conman... Very fishy indeed, few days ago when I search for Limrolando82@gmail.com in Facebook, the result page is http://www.facebook.com/lim.rolando.3Below are the info i have from the previous booking he make for me during my trip in May 2013. Hotel.com Payment information Billing name Salaeng Travel Payment Information Name on card: JITTAKARN BOSAKARANUT Card type: MasterCard Card number: XXXXXXXXXXXX5814 Not sure if this is his FB, http://www.facebook.com/lim.rolando.3 And his Cari account http://cforum.cari.com.my/forum.php?mod=vi...ead&tid=3072955 Now when I rechecked this Facebook, the page is no longer available. It seems Limrolando quickly deleted this Fb account. Anyway I got a cached copy of it for everyone's reference. If anyone has the full page of it, do post it here. |

I also bought a tour package (flight + hotel to Taiwan) with him and paid RM2.4k.
Only showed me airline confirmation, but without booking number. When I ask him for the confirmation vouchers/slips, he gave numerous excuses like server down or touring in HK. Until now I'm yet to receive the confirmation from him. I felt weird and check back in lyn only saw this dispute thread created. Damn! If anyone making a police report I'm joining in too. |

QUOTE(db07mufan @ Jul 12 2013, 01:45 PM) My experience with Limrolando, I had two bookings with him few months back. I just received a reply from the hotel, my booking is still intact for August. PhewFirst booking was a 3 night stay in BKK, in August. Banked in around little less than rm700 and he said he will give me the voucher 3 days later. 3 days later he forwarded a confirmation email to me from Venere.com. No payment information there but only my name on the booking with his email, and a Venere.com booking number, and emailed the hotel immediately after that to reconfirm my booking and it was confirmed and a booking number was given to me by the hotel. I have just emailed the hotel again, hopefully nothing goes wrong as I read some bookings got canceled due to financial dispute. Second booking was a last minute one booked the night before for a one night stay in Holiday Inn Siam in Bangkok. The deal was done circa 11pm the night before I was supposed to check in. He told to just show up at the hotel the next day to check in and whatsapp him if there were any problems. At that time he had good feedback so I just went without hesitating, check in was smooth the next day. That's my only two experience with limrolando, it will be sad if he's a con. Anyhow I have emailed the hotel again for a confirmation on my august booking. Hopefully everything still there. |

QUOTE(Putraskyline @ Jul 16 2013, 09:34 PM) Your booking is advance purchase or BAR? If he just booked your hotel and didn't pay yet, it might create a trouble soon. Advanced payment I believe , he paid at venere.com using my name and his email and then forward the email to me.The only thing can happen now is venere.com finds out that he's using a fraudulent card , and then void my booking but I'm praying hard that's not the case. In the voucher it stated he paid SGD252.82 = MYR632.05 I paid him MYR780, which is still cheaper than what I can get by agoda. This post has been edited by db07mufan: Jul 16 2013, 10:45 PM |
