Paid by Cheque.

Credit cards allowed for 2 - 3 banks only (HSBC, Maybank and 1 more if not mistaken).

You have to go to Maxis Centre, MEP or APR to get your iPhone registration / booking done. Online sudah tiada.
Congratulations!

Welcome to the ever-growing family of iPhone users and soon-to-be users! LOL ... sometimes I think it looks like we're all parents in the delivery room of a hospital waiting for the delivery of a baby heehhe  

So the story start like this, when i got my 3gs on the last day of July, i realize that the phone has cracks on it, so immediately i request for a replacement. But the staff in maxis center said that currently there is none available stock, therefore he suggested me to keep the phone 1st, and come back on the 21 of august to complete the so called RMA form.

Today i went to the maxis center to complete the RMA, and i have repeated asking him whether i will get a new phone for the replacement, since most of the replacement phones are refurbish. The answer i get is the replacement phone will always be a new one. Of coarse i don't really believe it.

So the question is how do i differentiate whether the phone is refurbish or new one?

good news everyone..

i just came back from maxis centre the gardens.. at first, my purpose to maxis centre is to check my collection date.. when i reached there, like usual, press for numbers and wait until you get serve.. i bring along my receipt and tell the staff that im here to collect my iphone (booked mine on 1st of Aug and never receive any sms from them).. the staff took my receipt and look for my phone.. waited for 5 mins and the staff came out with a list of names.. surprisingly my name is not in the list!! however the staff double check the list to confirm my booking and he couldn't found my name neither.. he asked me to wait for 20mins and then another staff came out with my iphone.. woahh.. i can tell you that i was damn relieve at that moment !! after that, the staff proceed with the usual procedure.. i heard 1 of the staff ask who issue the phone to me since my name is not in the 4th batch list.. but luckily the senior staff told them he's the 1 who issue.. thumbs up to the senior staff for 1st come 1st serve basis.. after all the agreements and procedures, i went home happily with my new baby.. haha..

last but not least.. when i look at their 4th batch list, i saw those who made their bookings before 10th Aug is already available for collection.. for those who haven receive any sms or emails or calls from maxis gardens, i think you guys can just go to the maxis centre the gardens to collect your baby..

Absolutely agree with nokia2003 point..
Electronic prdts are made and used by us human and us human do sometimes (apparently most of the time) made mistakes/errors.. There will be chances when manufacturer/users made some mistakes/errors and problems will occur..
