If that was a fraud membership that you purchased then why didn't they object to it at the time of granting you membership??this is absurd!! They also took an interview and then after 1 year they dismissed your membership. File criminal complaint against them for defrauding you and duping you of money.

Club is cheating all. Transfer was process by director of club and welcome letter signed by president. Transfer was in their knowledge from first day and amount is transferred to member seller at the instance of management and club account.

If you will not file FIR agaisnt the management, amount will never recover. Clerk cannot be held liable because he received no payment and transfer of membership is approved by management.

Hi 

It is apparent that you acted in good faith and trust and paid all the fees associated to being a member of club. 

Also it is apparent that you have been permitted to use the facilities of the club for a period of 1 year. 

It may be possible that a  fraud has been  committed by the clerk of the club, in connivance with some of office bearers of the club and also the member who sold his membership to you. 

But the fact remains that at no point of time, the management committee enquired with you about the fraud and also that management committee permitted to use the facilities provided by the club for a period of 1 year. 

So, initiate a civil proceeding against the club and management committee with a prayer to permit you to enjoy the facilities of the club without any interruption . Courts will be happy to grant an injunction in your favour given that club is a public utility. 

Hope this information is useful. 

Cheating complaint will be Maintainable. If the club is service provider also the compensation can be claimed from consumer court.

1. Most clubs offering such memberships are frauds.

2. You should read fine prints very minutely.

3. Unless all terms of club membership are perused threadbare it cannot be said whether any offence is made out or not.

You should also file a police complaint against the club for selling you and allowing you on a fraud membership. 

That interview process at the time of you purchasing the membership in front of the director makes that director liable for making you buy fraud membership. 

Since you have done the formalities to transfer the club membership from an exiting member to your name properly following the legal steps as suggested and also have transferred the fee for the purpose and have an acknowledgment, moreover you hav been provided with the welcome kit and other identity cards recognizing your membership with the club, you can handle it legally.

You first send a legal notice demanding relief from the club president in this regard, if you do not get a favorable reply or if no solution is arrived then you can approach court with a suit demanding damages for the insults and defamation caused to you and also to declare your membership as valid based on the documentary evidences you have in your possession.

Since you have documentary evidences to prove the issuance of membership to you, the case filed by the club against the clerk has nothing to do with your case.

You may take it up legally through court of law seeking direction to the director or president of the club to accept your membership and provide you the desired relief.

You should also file a case against the club for taking interviews and afterwards rejecting you.
