I think what most forummers are concerned about is that maxis said "you will get your phone WITHIN 30 days", not "you will get your phone AFTER 30 days". Hence, when the deadline is drawing nearer, we will definitely feel more 'kan cheong' that maxis has not contacted us yet.

Just my 2 cents

Date booked: 12 Sept
Unit booked: i3GS 16GB black
Centre: Maxis TTDI
Date collected: 7 Oct
Waiting time: ~ 25 days

My experience: Dropped by this morning, said nicely that I would like to collect my phone. Maxis guy at the ticket machine asked for my receipt, and compared to a print-out list of customers eligible to collect. Found out that I am from Batch 9 (the latest I think), while the customer list goes back to Batch 5! Each Batch is the customers who signed up in a week. Shortly proceeded to collect my new toy.

In short, if you have waited more than 3-4 weeks (and maxis still did not call yet), do drop by the centre and ask for the phone nicely (seriously, asking nicely helps). BTW, before that I had called customer care 123 four times, and each time they promise to call me back, but (surprise, surprise) I never heard from them.

My 2 cents

iData2 for me. Maybe you can try again, because he told me the new list just came out (so new he hadn't even printed it out yet). Hope that helps!

Booked mine at TTDI too on Sept 12. Picked it up yesterday. Just drop by and hopefully they have a unit waiting for you. "Hopefully", because the guy said some people who are eligible to collect their phones still have not showed up (my heart said "sure la, you all never call ma..."), and if people from later batches show up, they might release the phones to these people first. Yeah, perfect story of left hand dunno what right hand is doing. >.<!!!

I asked for the outlet's number too and was told the same thing.

EDIT: Sept 16 changed to Sept 12.

Malaysia type 3pin plug. And the new design is a much better improvement over the one bundled with the 3G model.
