ok, i received a call from streamyx and saying that i can apply for personal insurance for very low price per month and the offer was quite good for a layman (i never apply before).

but i also need to give out my credit card number because the rep asked right on the spot. suddenly i realize why should i provide my card number without even having a clear idea of what it is all about, at least some black and white paper or website? so i said i forgot the number during telling the number halfway and the card is not with me (which is true also). some more the phone number is "private no" so i can't even confirm who's calling. but the rep do have my correct address registered under streamyx account.

i was told that it's only available for customers who subsribed streamyx for more than a year. anyone receive similar call?

I've subscribed to Streamyx since it was made available, and yet received no such call. Never ever reveal important info to unknown ppl.

i receive a call from airasia for the aig insurance for a low price too

what the fuh? is this a lucky draw thing or what?

and airasia also got?

it's not that i don't believe them, but at least let me just choose to pay in bank transfer or even cash. credit card? no way, they can just charge any amount and i'll be doomed...

did they asked for credit card number or something? and what did you respond them?

As long as din giv our credit card no. is ok right?

Mine calling frm Alliance asking for IC No.?

i think its genuine

last year , airasia for the aig insurance for a low price , they did fax over the stuff, but i said no thanks

yup i didn't give them. IC number is ok i think, they can't do anything i guess? in fact if got lobang you can buy from companies, there might be some jerks working inside and selling private informations to outside.

sum1 inside telco is selling ur phone number to the insurance/crapsh!t company. might be a scam too. same with spam sms u got selling astro.

If Insurace pay if lag I buy.

hehe

i've done some research just now, apparently Streamyx and AIG are partners, no doubt.

but why must debit/credit card? weird.

have,but mine is debit card , so i can just cancel it and they already send those policy those thing to me
mine is RM39 per month only

oh, exactly the same amount i got offered. so i guess it's valid and safe. thanks for the information!!

I booked Air Asia ticket and yeah I got a call from such agent claiming the same low premium health insurance. I dunno is this is real or not?

i got this kind of calls once every month... they asked me to sign up insurance. its very irritating.

I'll usually say goodbye and have a nice day. If my information gets leaked out , I'll sue your company and as well as TM for leaking out my information without my concern. Its invading my privacy.

This way , they'll not bug you

Your wallet is no match for their band of lawyers.

Best way is to ask for the sales rep personal phone number and tell them you'll call them back later.

ok i guess it's not some kind of special offer anyway. i believe my parents alaready signed me up some insurance too. guess i better reject it lol.

it's a joined business between tmnet and that insurance company.

credit card details for them to deduct every month for the insurance.

btw, if you don't have insurance yet, it's good to take one now. who knows.
