Who owns what
Who owns what
Is Sorya, City, Savanna and Ratanna Malls all owned by the one group. I lost the slip for the moto parking and they fined me $5 before releasing my moto. Thats a days wages for a local that can only afford a moto. I want to know which mall to avoid in the future, already going half a click or so further to go to Thai Hoot. Even found I can get proper powered milk there. Can a private company fine people, I thought only a government could fine people. To top it off I also forgot to take my license and rego card with me, another $5 for 20 minutes in a took. Cant remember the last time I forgot to take my rego papers with me, just one of those days.
$5 sounds cheap. If I forget my keys for my new.. I mean, my moto .. will it be another $5 for them to hotwire it?
Any parking area will charge you if you lose the slip. At best, you'll need to wait until all other motos are claimed and they're closing for the night.
Solution: don't lose the slip.

It sounds better than them giving your bike away to some thief who pretends they lost the slip.
Romantic Cambodia is dead and gone. It's with McKinley in the grave.
A more nasty one is, when they write license plate numbers on the receipt and they write down the wrong number. I caught them in time with that at the TK Avenue shopping centre (Lucky Burger and the cinema). I can assume, the boys in brown might get involved, etc.
Another event, they did short change me on 10K Riel, kept holding my hand up and i got the remainder.

Yep, though the theft problem might be more often an insider job......Lucky Lucan wrote:It sounds better than them giving your bike away to some thief who pretends they lost the slip.

Hmmm, I lost the moto ticket a few times and all demanded for my bike registration card, had to go back and forth. Sounds like a lucrative side job if all you had a to pay is 5 or 10 bucks for losing the ticket. I aint no grand thief auto expert but you could ignite the bike with no key in less than a min.

Did you show them the registration card in your name? If not, then how can they know you're the rightful owner? Sounds to me like you're the one who's wrong here.
The flip side, of course, is that those places are manned my brain dead people and the companies won't compensate you in the event of a loss. I know someone who got a bicycle stolen and they didn't compensate the full purchase price, which defeats the whole purpose of the "security". I usually refuse the tickets by telling them I'm only going in for a bit, as I find the ticket system annoying as hell. Only place I'll do it is somewhere like Aeon where it's mandatory. I do know of a guy who got money from a company after they dropped his bike and he got video footage from the shop owner, then showed it to the security company... Still, I don't think they'd ever pay you in full if your bike got stolen, so I don't use them. Next time put your ticket in your wallet and don't lose it. Lesson learned.

No, showing the bike's registration card just help to prove you are legit. Just makes their job easier so they can avoid taking the down fall. Besides, I dont know any friends who bothered going through the official process of having it in their name for a less than $1000 haggle price bike on the street or shop for that matter.LexusSchmexus wrote:Did you show them the registration card in your name?

How long did it take you? I went through the official process with other paper work for documentations and it takes days and nothing is done, this that this that. I was fed up had a connect friend to tag along and it was done in less than 30 mins. I am just saying if you are buying a less than 1000 bucks no need to going through the burden of finding where find to have the name and have the registration card in your own name, on the off chance they might ask for you for your WP too, lol. As long as you have the RC and have a license plate is suffice. And more likely than not, they will drag the proccess and ask the seller of the bike to come along and prove that his bike is under his name. Well I supposed its a good thing.

Same here. $15 bucks, one hour. Only problem in Cambodia is that they make it hard to change names. At the moment it's no longer possible to put a bike I'm a foreigner's name as well. Still, unless you have valid registration (in your name just helps), I don't see how they're wrong for keeping it.
