CASE is a private non-profit organization, which serves to inform and educate consumers on their rights and responsibilities and to protect them. You can make telephone enquiries, or ask them to represent you in writing to the timeshare company. It also maintains a blacklist of timeshare companies who practise unfair trading. Anyone over 18 and who lives in Singapore (even non-Singaporeans) are eligible for CASE membership.

If you are a tourist in Singapore, you should complain to STPB, as CASE will not handle your dispute. Even if you have already left the country, you can still lodge a complaint via their website or through writing.

NOTE: Unfortunately, the Small Claims Tribunal does not handle timeshare issues.
