House Key

This key thingy story was haunting me since last Friday.  I called the developer last Monday and the clerk told me that I can go to their office to collect my new house key.  Wah !!!! finally !!!  So, hb & I took leave on Friday and went to the developer office in PJ.  We reached there at about 11.15am.  The developer office is so nice and cosy but...the nightmare starts !

The receiptionist greeted us after I introduced myself and she asked us to get a seat while she gets the documents and keys ready for us.  So, we wait and wait and wait.  After waited for about 15-20 minutes, she came and told us that she can't find our house key as it might has given to another owner while she was away yesterday.  I was shocked !! I asked how can she gave the keys to other people as all the keys are labelled.  So she started la with all the grandmother & grandfather stories.  To cut it short, I told her we purposely take leave to come all the way from Klang so she said maybe her senior can help but her senior will only come in at 12pm.  So, I told her we will wait for her as it is about quarter to 12pm.  We waited till 12.30pm, there are no signs of her senior coming, so I told her we will go for lunch at the food court.  Luckily after lunch, her senior came but still told us the same stories but she promised us that she will get her friend to exchange the key with the owner and pass the key to us by the next day (Saturday).

So, we went back with getting the key, but we still went to few places to survey the price for grille and kitchen cabinet.  I have to go to office on Saturday for Fire Fighting Training and my hb is working.  On Saturday, I waited till noon for the lady to call me.  I called her during my lunch time at 1pm and she said she will get her friend to call me immediately to arrange to handover the key to my hb.  After about 15 mins, her friend called and said she will wait for my hb at our new house to handover the key.  Key taken by hb and I asked him to call one of the grille guy to come do the measurement.  The guy said he will come at 4pm.  Another nightmare comes, the lady's friend called me again after 15 mins and said that is not my key, she supposed to give that bunch of key to other owner and get my key from them !!! Wah!!! I was so angry !!!

The other owner can only come to exchange the key at 7pm....and said no because the grille guy is coming to take the measurement at 4pm.....I think she can hear that I am really angry and she said she will tried her best.  She called again and the other owner will come a 5pm.  Phewww !!!!

I reached home after the training around 4.45pm and she called to said that we can collect our key now.  Went there and exchange the key and finally yes finally we got our house key after so much of hassle.

  1. Is that your new house? The one in the banner? Nice! Eeeeee.....safe or not like that? I would want to have all the locks changed...considering that they have been in somebody's hands already. Scary.
