The Consumers Association of Singapore (“CASE”) is launching Price Kaki, a mobile application, nationwide to empower consumers to make informed purchasing decisions. This nationwide rollout comes after a pilot run that started in September 2019, which has since garnered more than 34,000 downloads and more than 21,000 registered users. With this nationwide rollout, consumers can use Price Kaki to compare prices for common household items and groceries, found in major supermarkets, and cooked food from hawker centres across Singapore. Price Kaki is now available for download on Apple’s App Store and Google Play. Read more here.

The Consumers Association of Singapore (“CASE”) would likej to advise consumers to be wary should they receive invoices from Global ATC Holding Pte Ltd (“Global ATC”) claiming to be acting for Asian Travel Club Pte Ltd (“ATC”). From 1 November 2019 to 31 May 2020, CASE has received 69 complaints from consumers on Global ATC demanding payments for outstanding timeshare membership fees and/or maintenance fees allegedly owed to ATC. In most cases, the consumers received demand for payment despite having formally terminated their memberships. The payment amount stated on the invoices ranges from $320 to $23,800. Read more here.
