Follow-up Complaint on Elevator Non-Answer Answer

UPDATE (02/03/14):  As of today, still no copies for 1, 2 and 3 in the follow-up on the complaint.  I do not understand.  Is anyone able to explain this?  Why the delay? Ryan once again went to the administration office and was told "trying to make it available."  What does this mean?
UPDATE (01/31/14):  As of today, still no copies for 1, 2 and 3 in the follow-up on the complaint.  I do not understand why making copies of all three would take so long since they already appear to have given the insurance policies.  Is anyone able to explain this?  Why the delay?
UPDATE (01/28/14):  Ryan has just had copies of the insurance policies delivered which appear to be complete as far as numbers 4 and 5 of the list provided in the most recent elevator complaint.  These copies also give the former and most recent past insurance policies.  We had always asked to pay for what documents we had been able to get and were told it was not necessary.  But given the writing about charges for copies, we wanted to assure and let everyone know we had always asked.  They now have charged for these copies and Ryan asked for an Official Receipt.  We have now scanned and posted copies to be viewed for free by all those accessing the links below.  Of course, they may be downloaded, too.

Charter Ping An Insurance Corporation Policy No. FI-REG-HO-13-0001641-00
Please note on page 3 that this policy is signed for and on behalf of four (4) insurers with the following percentage coverage :  Charter Ping An Insurance Corp. 45%; Federal Phoenix Assurance Co., Inc. 25%; PNB General Insurers Company, Inc. 15%; UCPB General Insurers Co., Inc. 15%.

former Prudential Guarantee and Assurance, Inc. Policy No. FL-FLR-HOM-0055897 and Oriental Assurance Corporation Policy No. H11FD12056/RO1.  These two insurance carriers' coverage was the same at PhP 697,000,000.00.  This seems to differ from the "panel" coverage we now have with only percentages covered which, I believe, would leave us at a loss if one or more fail.
 
Ryan was told while paying the 4th floor administration office in cash that the other copies requested are being gathered.
 
The current insurance policy is "Exclusively for:  Soho Central Condominium Corporation "as principal"; and/or Greenfield Development Corporation; and/or Meridien Development Group, Inc.; and/or Century Project Management and Construction Corp.; and/or Century Properties Management, Inc."  BUT, who pays the part for the elevators since Soho Central Condominium Corporation (SCCC) does not own the elevators as stated in the non-answer answer?  Why is SCCC paying for others?  Are the others reimbursing SCCC?

Here is the bill and receipt since this has been mentioned in the past.  Why is unknown since we always were willing to pay and told no.

 
Please everyone examine and think about all the details.  Who pays for what?
 

Follow-up Complaint on Elevator Non-Answer Answer


Of course, there have been many complaints concerning the elevators in one form or another in many forums.  The last complaint form submitted was replied to with no answer.  The non-answer answers really must cease.

http://sohocentralcondominium.blogspot.com/2014/01/new-complaint-form-for-elevators.html

Below is the response to the non-answer answer and the non-answer answer.  After the follow-up complaint below submitted to and acknowledged by the admin office and also given to the city, a memo was posted regarding preventive maintenance.  What has taken place as far as preventive maintenance much less fully installed elevators since turnover in 2009?

It is written in the memo with a schedule for this supposed maintenance "... to prevent /or minimize frequent elevator breakdowns that we are encountering now."  "Encountering now?"  We have been encountering the elevators on-going and continual failure since 2009.  Now we have emergency repairs and the idea of a light at the end of the long dark tunnel.  Given the falling elevators, I can only pray that the light is not the journey we will all eventually take.

Follow-up Complaint:




Of course, I take exception to "they malfunction every once in a while."  The elevators have now been malfunctioning for years.  The non-answer answer below states to repair or rehabilitate.  Rehabilitate is used and is faulty in its implication since no Unit Owner I know wants the elevators in the prior state which is malfunctioning.  It would seem the elevators have never been fully installed.  Installation of fully functioning and safe elevators is what we expect, paid for and demand.

Further to the unnamed "private reputable engineering firm", when was it "commissioned?"  When and where was this expense approved and reflected in what Minutes & Resolution?  How much was this expense?
