Not sure if anyone here pre-ordered from Takacom Cellular during their roadshow at the Curve 2 weeks ago but I just called them up to check on my order status. As of 2:15pm, they have yet to receive any stock. The lady I spoke to said that they were supposed to receive their stock for the iPhone 3G S 16gb/32gb earlier today but they're still waiting on their delivery. She also mentioned that they will be calling each customer who pre-ordered to inform them about when/where they can pick their iPhone up.

I did not sign up at their Curve roadshow but did so at their outlet at Giant Kota Damansara. Got the same answer as you. My bigger concern was that when I called Maxis 123 to ask whether did the system allocate a collection date for me (as the receipt given to me was merely a cash receipt), the CS answer was that my booking wasn't in their system.  sweat.gif So I called back Takacom to ask how can this be so and the Takacom salesgirl said that it was because they were on different systems.  rclxub.gif

Heh, I had the same experience. After reading through some of the posts in this thread, I called up Maxis 123 to check on my collection date. After paying the deposit for the pre-order, I got two receipts from Takacom - 1 cash receipt issued by Takacom and one cash receipt with a Maxis letterhead. Maxis' CSR notified me that they were unable to find my booking in their system. However, after ringing Takacom up again, I was informed that Maxis is utilizing a different system while the other retailers were on another system. To cut a long story short, Takacom was able to verify that my booking was in their system and that they would ring me up when they've gotten their stock. I suspect that the point about collection date/time slots as mentioned by some of the other posters here are being used by Machines and a couple of other distributors, not ALL distributors which I thought initially.

Let's hope that all of us would be fiddling and tinkering with our iPhones 3G S by Monday smile.gif

I just came back from my MEP collection center in Giant Kota Damansara. Stock not arrived.

I called yesterday and they bounce me around, eventually one of their people said I can get today. So based on this, I complained and the bounce around until one of the distributor's manager, finally able to help me.

They said they will specially make sure mine is reserved upon stock arrival (6pm today) because of this misunderstanding.

Conclusion? If you didn't call earlier to MAKE SURE you can get it, you first come first served if you're lucky. If you got a good case, as long as it's possible to give you, they will try to appease you.

GOOD LUCK!

I just called up the MEP centre at Giant Kota Damansara and they mentioned that the earliest possible date that they will receive their stock would be on Monday. I had the same experience as you did - called them up yesterday to check on when I can pick it up, they kept on forwarding my call to different people before I finally ended up with one of their management staff who informed me that I can get it today (Friday 31/7). After I told them that one of their managers said that I would be able to get my set on Friday evening at the earliest and Saturday morning at the latest, she kept on insisting that the earliest that the customers who pre-ordered would be able to get their units would be on Monday.

I don't mind waiting to get the iPhone but all the shuffling around and the different stories I get from each person I speak to is more than frustrating. Just wish that they could give me a straight answer instead of passing the buck off to someone else.
