if i wanna book using my digi number? which i plan to change to maxis

jus now i went to Maxis reseller in OUG. eventhough our booking shows collection on 31/7, it depends on d stock. but i stil paid d 200bucks. they didnt even check d email or sms booking number. duno how they gonna allocate the stock.

The email/booking number is quite pointless. The only reason they do this is to avoid long queue at Maxis centre/machines during registration. As for my case, I booked to collect from Machines but later on I changed my mind and I walked straight in to Maxis centre and register there, with no email/booking number whatsoever. As for my email booking to collect from Maxis, it will be void after 5 days, so who cares...

If I do not collect my unit during the appointed collection date, can I still purchase one at a later date?
"Sir/madam, we will hold the stock for you for a duration of fourteen (14) days from the collection date (31st July 2009). After which, stocks are subject to availability. "

but wats in my mind is y all d hassle of producin booking numbers when infact, the maxis resellers dun really need dem. if they dun gimme the iphone on d speculated date, im gonna create a fuss and collect my deposit lar haha.. see if we can buy one on dat day via direct full payment in maxis centres.

The reason that I can see why Maxis is asking for deposit is to roughly estimate the number of iphone 3gs required to be shipped to Malaysia. I may be wrong, but I believe the stocks are not here yet and that is why their deadline is 24th so that they have enough time to get the stock shipped here. If they have asked only booking without payment, that would be suicidal as probably only 50% would be interested and the extra stock would be deemed useless. I guess they have learned from the previous iphone 3g mistake.

Thank you for contacting Maxis.
