Car rental firm RentLah sues former director and finance company over alleged ‘cashback’ scheme
The finance company is countersuing RentLah for not paying its hire-purchase instalments.
RentLah and its associated companies are taking legal action against former director Ong Yong Soon and Skyway Motor, alleging that the latter inflated the prices of 95 cars they purchased. The claim is that this was done to secure a "cashback" from Skyway, resulting in the car hire-purchase agreements being void. RentLah asserts that the total cashback received was approximately $1 million.
Skyway, in response, countersues RentLah for over $11.3 million, accusing the car rental firm of failing to make hire-purchase payments on the purchased vehicles, as well as late payment interest and charges. RentLah bought the cars between May 2024 and May 2025, with Ong Yong Soon serving as a director until July 2026.
