TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: My name is Edith Okwara and I have recently entered into a Lease agreement with LuxuryNites(signed 31st December 2017) My problem is as follows: First, their agent initially gave me the wrong information, saying I need to pay a TOTAL OF R14,500.00. I am aware that the Lease stated two months deposit but went with the verbal advice of the agent. I deposited the money yesterday and then spoke to the agent again, who then pointed out that I needed a two month deposit and not one.At that point I opted out of the Lease and decided to use my "cool off" period to assist me to get my deposit back. Luxury Nites now say I forfeited my money as my dealings with them were as a result of Direct Marketing, in that i contacted them for the rental. According to legal advice I have been told that this clause would only work if I had made the agreement with the last known tenant of the building.I did not.I dealt only with their agents and feel that it is unfair and rather suspicious of them to withhold the full R14,500.Also, the lease has been modified without my prior knowledge or consent. I need urgent assistance.I have not taken occupation of the premises and have informed the Agent of my intent to withdraw.
