Did you order the bumper in Malaysia or Singapore? From what I gather you have to send the free bumper to a Singapore address because the iPhone4 isn't officially launch in Malaysia yet.

Cool, thanks for the information. Yeah I have two iTunes accounts, one Malaysia and the other Singapore. I was hoping we could order the bumper to be shipped to Malaysia once we got the app into our iPhones. Oh well, gives me another excuse for a second trip to Singapore

Will you be using a Singaporean mobile provider? If not then why will the data charge rate be international unless you are on Maxis and out of Malaysia

I swear, sometimes these questions can really make you

You can download applications from the country your account is set too. So if you have a Malaysian iTunes account you can get all applications from Malaysia only. Hence the reason why some people have multiple accounts. Applications are not transferable between accounts

I was at Kotaraya today and the shops there quoted me RM2800-RM3200 so called "Original" sets. The salesman was spouting some nonsense to me about original/non-original sets from China Talking to me like I don't know nuts about Apple products and he was just freshly trained by Steve Jobs himself

I ordered mine on the same day I can't check on the status because my cousin ordered for me and he will inform me when my unit arrives, oh yeah he is Singaporean

Either you can't read or you are just plain lazy:

6. There are some users here ordered from Apple Online Singapore with their Malaysian Credit cards and the order went through.
*Do note: If you use any CC below, it does not guarantee that your order went through
The cards that went through is: Hong Leong, Citibank and UOB [Malaysian CC] & American Express[US Based]

*There are times your order get stuck. There are 2 possible reason. I have stated the alternative as to what you can do if you face the problem.
a) Credit Card Company doesn't release your payment to apple. Alternative: You can change cards or cancel your order.
b) Apple suspect you using credit card from overseas. Alternative: You can cancel your order or send in your documents
*Sending in your documents does not guarantee your order will go through

Already posted in the first page! I've read through from page 1 to 49 over the course of the week and if you bothered to spend some time you will find the information So no, I won't link the page for you because I cannot remember where it is & the information was posted by several users. You either take my word for it or find it within this topic. You can ask the TS if he is willing to link

I've gathered conflicting reports on this issue. The best is to check with the Singapore customs if the GST is claimable

Bank currency exchange rates are usually higher than money changers. If money changer is selling SGD at 2.32, expect the banks exchange rate at around 2.35~2.38 or higher depending on the bank

Yes you can but it will be invalid the moment the bank opens in the morning. Bank exchange rates updates every few minutes

There is no definite answer. Some people were charged after a few days and some were only charged once the status changed to prepare to ship. It really depends on apple store on when they want to charge you. Majority of people were charged once their shipment was shipped as stated in the apple store Q&A.

Tourist trap spots usually sells the iPhone 4 but at a cut throat price. I'm not too sure but I think Lucky Plaza at Orchard Road should have resellers with stock there. I've heard these units are also parallel importeded from US/EU but I cannot confirm if it's true. You need a thread member whose recently been to Singapore to inform you of more places.

The delivery company will attempt at least two~three times before they will leave a note for your friend to collect the unit at the nearest collection center. Your friend can call them after the first attempt to specify the best delivery time for the second attempt. I've done this in Malaysia and it should be standard procedure for professional courier companies like DHL, UPS, etc.

Just make sure your friend is aware of your tracking number and he is informed when the first delivery failed when he is not in. You can check this with the tracking number provided when your shipment is sent, not sure if apple provides one as my order is done by a relative in Singapore under their account.

Most credit card should work without any issues. The most important factor is your bank should be able to contact you for verification should either party (Apple or your bank) needs too verify the purchaser. Majority of rejected orders is because the bank or Apple store could not contact the credit card holder to verify the validity of the transaction or you've ordered above the limit allowed per customer Of course there are other factors but if the transaction is normal and verification can be done then it shouldn't be a problem

No worries. I've gathered the data from all the pages as I've read most of them. There is another member a few pages back who reported his credit card went through and it was not listed in the main page. Hopefully the TS will add the bank to the list of successful credit cards. You could also assist other members once your transaction is successful and you've received your iPhone 4 I've seen many successful transactions from different banks that is not listed in the main page

I've just got my order info from my relative and mine ships on the 22nd Sept and delivers on the 24th Sept. Ordered on the 31st Aug. They are really taking their sweet time with my order

My unit is the iPhone 4 32 GB.

My unit shipped two days earlier. I ordered on the 31st and shipping date stated is 22nd September. However they shipped my unit yesterday on the 20th and it will be arriving in Singapore tomorrow on the 22nd

Is it me or did we already pass the 12th of Sep?

Yeah, if they decide to stop you and find the phone they tax you kow kow

Kastam officers are not stupid, they will either ballpark the figure or use a previous case where someone declared with an invoice before. Trust me, they know as I have a friend who is a Kastam officer

My unit just arrived in Singapore today right on time

Planning to go down tomorrow or Thursday to collect it

I ordered on the 31st of August and original shipment date is the 22/9 and expected delivery is 24/9. My unit arrived on the 21/9

Once it is prepared for shipment you cannot cancel the order so do it before then
