Well guys.. .just home from Gardens MV... and guess what?
I GOT MY BLACK 32GB BEAUTY!!!!
So darn happy. Now updating the software which takes 3 blinking hours and sync all my 80 previously purchased apps and games.
The steps I took to get it are:
1] Called 123 (Maxis) and told them I am traveling overseas next week and would like to check on the availability of the iPhone.
2] CS on the line said he can't give me the phone no. to Gardens but instead he will contact them and ask on my behalf.
3] 3hrs later he called back to inform me that Gardens are now processing pre-booked orders up till 8th Aug but adviced me to walk in to confirm and tell them about my situation (traveling overseas)
4] Walked in to Gardens.. took the waiting number and when my turn arrived, I passed the CS my receipt (obtained from booking day after paying deposit).
5] She checked on their system and walked to the store room without saying a word.
6] She then walked out with some documents and the most beautiful black box which says iPhone 3GS on the side!
Hope this helped some of you in your quest to obtain your precious iPhone earlier.
PS. Make sure after getting your iPhone... take the 'Mobile Data' ticket and let them configure your iPhone for you. They already have everything setup on their laptop and it took only 10mins.
Cheers!
When did u book your iphone? I did my booking and paid deposit on 15 august and i went to gardens maxis center yesterday (29 August), i did mention to them that i wil be going overseas on the 7th but they said that i still have to wait for a month..no way they can help to accelerate. I ask them whether i can come n collect by the 6 sept but they said as long as u dont receive any sms or call from us, pls dont come. Damn frustrating. Anyway i will still give a try next saturday b4 i take off on sunday.I GOT MY BLACK 32GB BEAUTY!!!!
