Today I've got an sms saying that someone told the person from i-city mall that I wrote a complaint here at LYN. But what I am doing is merely sharing my own experience. The person is even asking me why I felt cheated. It has been 1 week to 3 months waiting for my purchase. Of course, I also mentioned that the person from this company is responsive to my emails from time to time. Though sometimes a delay of a day or two. But for 3 months and even when asking for a refund, this has been delayed again and again. I've read in the other site that the person-in-charge in this company mentioned that all refund will be handled within 72 hours (I only found out about this yesterday night).

I've requested for my refund and they told me 3~5 working days. Fair enough time for them to check and clarify on the transfer and as well refund me back. But after waited for 5 full working days, no updates from them and I have to again asked them for a status. When I mentioned in my reply to get them to take this seriously and I might report this as a fraud, they told me sure to go ahead and they will take this in highest extend of law. I did not make this story up as this is my experience purchasing from this site.

When I called after 5 working days, the person told me she was busy and just came back from outside doing some other refund to other customers and my refund request got to her only after she was out handling the earlier batch. Then, next, the person email me telling me there is a limit of 5k transfer via online with bank. I do understood this fully. But then again, I was thinking, why need WORKING DYAS if you are telling me the transfer would be done online? and what happened when I was told she just got back from outside doing some other refund transfer??

I mean after all the communication and asking them to honour their words, again and again I am being delayed. For 3 good months and they can't prioritise the refund or even delivery of the product of an unsatisfied customer? They did mentioned when I asked for refund that they could send me the product if it is available from port klang within the refund period promised. They said they missed to send me my purchase in their first batch of stock arrived? How am I not feeling upset? A purchase for 2+ months could not be treated with higher priority? What about the same day (local) and next day delivery promised on the website? rclxub.gif

Just my 2 cents

Hi Lexus150, I'm facing exactly the same issue as you.
I placed my item back in April, and May, they told me that prioritize the first batch shipment to others and not me. After that 2nd batch, keep saying got issue at custom, keep delaying and proposed me to take a refund. I accept the refund, but it drag like 2 weeks until today I still not even receive any refund. At first, they saying by Tuesday 7-June, after that drag until 10-June, and 10-June, when ask for status update, saying already done with e-transaction, when I ask for the transaction number, promised will send email to me, but until now, none! Luckily I kept all single email from the day I purchase and all the communication with the company, the transaction documents, even the SMS from the company in my backup. If Monday I still don't see the money in, I may want to lodge a police report on Monday next week. When is your dateline Lexus150? We may want to file the report together.

Hi wooncc, lexus150.

I'm sorry to hear about the problems you are facing. Really hope you guys will get your money refunded.
If the police or any other government department need further information I'll be glad to provide 'threatening' msg that they have sent me, saying that they will take legal action against me if I don't remove this thread from Lowyat forum.
I also know another forummer who received similar msgs.

Hi Gepochai, I just received the transaction screenshot attachment after the delay, delay & delay.
The screenshot looks to be true. Transaction made yesterday afternoon.
I will wait for today or next Monday morning to see if the refund amount is in my bank account.
If still something happened, Monday evening will lodge police report.

Lexus150, please check yours too.

Gepochai, many thanks for your help if needed.

Hope this will bring to an end! Thanks.


Added on June 11, 2011, 8:58 amBy the way, how should I check the validity of the transaction with the reference number that they sent? Just want to make sure everything is clean, and no more hiccups from them.

I will still compiling & printing the history of email, bank transaction, SMS etc today, in case I don't see the amount reflected into my bank account my Monday or Latest by Tuesday. Then my print out will be helpful for my report.

What kind of transaction? If it's a maybank2u online transfer then the amount should be reflected in ur account. U can check under 'today's transaction'. If it's cheque bank in then it'll take 3 working days.

yeah 3rd party bank transaction. The problem is the company did the transaction on Friday after 12 noon.
Thus, I think it will be reflected in to my account by Monday only.

I have not receive any single refund from i-citymall.
This morning Mrs Corina called me saying that the refund shall take 5 to 7 working days, because the account was Standard Chartered Singapore.
So, from Singapore to Malaysia Local Bank, will take 5 to 7 days. The last deadline is Friday 17 June after 12.30pm.
I lost my toleration already. By Friday 12.30pm still can't get it, I will straight lodge the police report and also to the consumer society.
THIS THE FINAL DEADLINE FOR MYSELF AND ALSO FOR I-CITYMALL!

Lexus, may want to PM me your contact number?
Same goes to gepochai. Thanks.

Added on June 14, 2011, 1:05 pmI did called up to Standard Chartered, but i'm not allowed to ask for any status of the transaction based on the Receipt Number (transaction number).
How come?
You guys remember to ask Corina to send you the screen shot of the standard Chartered 3rd party fund transfer.

The lady just sms told me she already done the e-transfer to me and said will be sending me the transfer ref id. But until now I have not got any relevant email. I will check and wait until tomorrow. Ok. if it's for overseas bank, mayb will take 5~7 days. Wooncc, if you know any1 working in the bank (SCB sg), i think high chances you are still able to track. They havent tell me which bank they are using, just told me transfered and will send the transfer receipt to me.

I don't have any friend who work there.
Any of your friend able to help?
By the way, remember to check clearly the screen shot. I PM you my email.
