[Resolved] DLF Builder — DLF biggest cheat real Estate Company

When I read things like DLF cheated it's customer. DLF not returning money etc. I thought it must be some other builder's agents writing these things about DLF as it is trying to launch properties in 3 southern state at very low price.
Despite lot many people told me not to book DLF flat I booked in so called pre launch booking in Hyderabad. Moreover, I started praising the price and project between my friend circle and 5 more friends booked on my recommendation. We put money in this project New City Height almost 8 months back. DLF employee told us at the time of booking that they are going to start construction in 1 month (just after Diwali). Which never started till recently May, 2010. As soon as they started some work on the plot all the pre launch customer received following mail (You can read the mail in the end of this complain) from DLF.

We met DLF Hyderabad head Mr. Manohar and he started the meeting with statement "DLF has no ethics". He took full 5 minutes to explain it is owned by a family which has no ethics and that is why this behavior. He also told about some changes (like 1 extra lift and fire station) which will increase the cost. Interestingly, those were already mentioned for the customers who paid 2500 but, price hike is still applicable to them.
He said he will get back to customer next week which happened and they changed the price increase from 400 to 200.
They also removed 2BHK apartments and asked those people to pay 15lakh extra for 3 BHK if they want 3 BHK flats.
Because of pre launch customers did not get signed agreement with DLF and did not bother to ask. Probably DLF is taking advantage of that. Moreover, customer booked the apartments at different prices like 1800, 2100 and 2500 so everyone has different interest and DLF is going by assumption that not many people will cancel the booking. Anyways, I canceled my booking and waiting for money from DLF.

My advise. Stay away from this cheat company. Don't even touch it with 20ft pole. Rest your call.
"

If dealing with DLF get ready for the following ..

1. All projects are late
2. they take intrestr on delay if you pay late even one day
No delayed apently to customers if porojects are delayed usual dealy is 2 to 3 years
They will charge escalation fees to you .. means you will not be paid delayed panelty however you will be asked to pay escaltion of basic raw material cost .
can make the fsi increase will give you same area but charge you more 5 % .
.

>that too due to DLF issues.. like they don't send the letter in time ..
>it does not reach me in time .. they don't use the quick method of

oave all DLF is big fraud .. i have 5 property withthem and i have very bad experience withthem

DLF capital Green
For this property I paid Rs 88 L cash in 2008 as down payment and there after I followed several times for the delayed worries.. DLF never gave this option to us to take your money .. otherwise I could have invested somewhere else and got good returns..

I have another project with DLF in sec 80 Gurgaon, where I asked for the refund last month as I found you people are fraud .there were even ESCALATION clauses. I was told by DLF as per the contract terms I will lose the booking amount if I cancel the booking .I was not even asking the interest .. So why this much generous now on this deal ..

Now coming back to one more question – You are asking me to pay Rs 61000 as delayed interest on this property letter enclosed since I made the down payment 17 days late where as you want I don’t take delayed penalty from you as per the contract .. Don’t you feel this is fraud .. My problems will be dealt with contact and you will take interest and your problems too I have to take care .. you played Golf with my money and don’t wish to pay for this ..

PL note I paid down payment to DLF considering your reputation I did know the cheating in your policy otherwise with the same money I would have booked 10 flats at construction linked with other Builders and moved out after 2 years .. I would have doubled my money ..

PL note this is the only DLF property which has escalated from Rs 6700 booking amount to Rs 16000 market price now and I am making profit .. and you are offering me the cancellation ..

I have other DLF property in DLF sec 74 A, there too you have delayed .. why don’t you pay my money there with interest as per the booking as there is hardly any escalation ..
