Tat's very bad...i dont 1 2 go tat shop n c notebook ..thanks for info bro~

do u still have the receipt?
what did they write on it?
1 x 512mb memory?

I thougt laptop in UK is cheaper and of better spec?

MSY
it is ur own foolishness dat u can actually trust de sellers at lowyat plaza. u shld know wat kind of ppl dey r.

now u juz hv to swallow dis thg.

to others: make sure u check and double-check watever thgs u buy; make sure resit is write clearly.
do not depend on promise. make sure got write down.

nope, its too expansive there. Same price, but in Pounds!

yes, check before you leave. I trust lowyat shops, but only a select few and Sri is not in that select few.

Sri Comp reputation has been bad.
I thought I've seen ppl complaining this shop.

But they r still one of the best store that carrying a lot of satff...

Maybe one worker careless cause the company reputation damage. A drop of ink will change the color of the water.

let me share my experience with u just happen past 1 week...
i went to that shop to buy graphic card...then i ask the shopkeeper to pass me the sapphire gc then i ask is this 256 bit and 256 mb ..it say yes..then i say open see...after that i say i wan have a look on powercolor pulak..he ask me in rude way and say what u wan...i say i wan to compare....he say same..then i with more anger voice say again...i say i wan to compare can u get for me...then he finally take ....damm ccb wan..say 1 time dun wan take... i wont go there edi lo....
somemore i got worst time with the technician la..i think my qualification (2 certified technician from informatic, 2 certified pc installation and maintainance from informatic, certified linux and windows maintenance from informatic) also better than the technician there la...damm sien ..go there 4 time and kenot fix my problem and at the end blame my ram and say my ram rosak..when they pull out my ram and put thier ram in and everything smooth.... then i so blur and i go back do checking myself and i do surfing and i found out is not my ram problem ...is the amd64+ proc problem ..ccb ...so long working as techinician duno amd64+ kenot support 4 ram stick running at ddr 400...pui pui...duno y they can be technician..sad la that place...

Their staff face really cannot see 1.

Ya loh, i wan ask buy mobo, and ask open box but he reluctant, and ask question in a rude manner, fark lor.

Thank`s for the info man...

how come u post tis way? u r staff at sri com also liao?

aiyak....the much debated sri comp that shop really sux

He said that cos the info will make him not to go to sri comp...

i dun think he need to say coz he been here long time should know there were lot complaint about sri com already.

meh.... lots of shop in Lowyat deserve to be *burn*

burn? means...?

mean he want all the shop should be burned by all the disatisfied customers, but tis is too violence to discuss that.

Kasi bakar!! Cakap (price list) tak serupa bikin (quote higher than pricelist) punya shop.

sricom is total bleh!..the workers are not just unfriendly they're RUDE..my opinion to my friends is always:

go to sri com and see their displayed items..buy from somewhere else..

my bad experience:
i was looking for Abit's NF7-S at that time...i knew it was rare but i still checked around low yat la..so i went to sri com...i ask nicely whether they still still have abit nf7-s ..the fella replied "where got ppl still buy socket A board one...if u still using socket A ur system might as well throw away and buy new one la" then i said "i wasnt asking for your opinion" then he reply "abit board dont have la..you stupid wan meh...find the whole world oso not selling adi la..so old board oso nobody want to use la"..VERY RUDE...what kind of service is this..
(in the end i bought my NF7-S v2.0 from IMBI plaza coz low yat really nomore)

pls calm down, i will froward all complaint to the supervisor there tis saturday.

Haih, orang macam ni pun ada .Probably because regardless of whatever they do to customer and potential customer, there is always someone else that will come and buy things from them, so they don't really care.

Sri Comp.....

Sad.. sad... some of their staff really make me angry. Service to the customer very bad n lousy. Wan to buy stuff from them but some of their stuff pretend like very busy and treat me like a "invisible" . Wat kind of attitude lar!!! If wan to hav loyal customer,then better treat the customers nicely k.. But after a few times of sad and unhappy experience, now dun buy from this shop anymore. Better buy from robyncom or Thundermatch. Their staff is friendly. I'm not trying to be bias right here. I'm just telling the truth

tell me, just tell me who is the one who treat u like tis?
china or malay?
i also cannot tahan & believe really got tis thing happen, tis is too far.

Wah...so many complaint bout sricomp

I also hav probs with them.....WAnted to look at the casing on top of the shelf.
So i asked the worker to help me...He said he was busy n ask me to wait a while....
So i waited..n waited...then i asked another worker the same thing happened....at last i saw one of the worker at the other end of the store dunno doing wat....(look like lepaking) as though like he forgot.....so i went to another shop n buy....

hais a SAD place it is

This shop sucxs.

This shop is only the exhibition ground. Go there to see and buy from other stall.

Bad experience many times...today go and tomorrow go, same item selling at different price. LIKE STOCK MARKET.

Ask them what is the different between normal kingston and elite what is the different. they said same one. WTF. After research through net and friends only know the speed is different. I thought a sales promoter is suppose to know about this.

best to survey online b4 go sri com asking them i quess.

ya, some of them very rude. Bought a cpu clip from them, asking confirm about the clip izzit for socket 478.. the way he reply is grrzzzzz...... lucky i was a nice person, still able to say "thank you" but in my heart is "(#*&$(#*&$#

sri comp more than sux.

They frisked my fren who brought in stuff not from them, and ask for receipt. My fren brought a PSU to claim warranty from another shop, luckily that time he got a receipt. Otherwise we will have a big hooha. The guard at the door assumes that all items people carry belong to Sri Comp, as though no other shop there selling PSU.

On the same day, I went to buy HDD casing. I ask 4 staff (2 chinese 2 malay) all say they dont have such thing. THen the 5th one told me 'belakang'

I went to the section and look around. Then I wanted to open one of the items, so i ask the staff to open for me. He said "no need open, all the same"...so i asked, if all the same then why different price?..he said "brand different"...WTF?

My 2nd fren, on the same day wanted to buy a KOSS headphone. It never mention the length of the cable, so he opened it. Then kena sound also. CBK fella, my fren already wanted that piece.


End of the day: 3 customers get insulted by 7 of their staff. If I'm the boss of Sri Comp i would really be sweating like hell now.

i go Sri. i See. i Found. i Take. i Pay. i Walk-Off.

no need hassle that much with any staff. just take the goods, pay and go off. same goes to other shops.

me also like this. but i guess our situation is different because in my case the stuff is small/general (mouse, regulator, etc), not like those motherboard or display card must asked them to get for us.....

last time i used to go to sri comp for window shopping and buy things in other shops...

but after all-it-hypermarket open in lyp, i dont even go there for window shopping

heard too much complains about that shop.....

but i prefer sri com window shopping coz all it need to take out ur bag.

i'm also had a bad experaince with this shop. I bought a p4 3.0HT last last year. when i pasang it on my mobot, the CPU FAN dint working. then i ask to change it to a new one but they refuse to do so. they change only the FAN. WTF??? i donu even if my CPU already demaged or what. THEY SUPPOSED To change the whole set as in term of condition 1 week one on one.

Big store n big ass!! nice to look buy somewhere else.

i think if i sell a t-shirt with "sri comp suck" word at the back sure laku here wan i experience twice edi and i swear no more for sri comp..better other place..baikot them untill kau kau

deng...u no need say also I wont give a damn to that shop edi.

That day I accompany my fren go buy burner, the staff see us like see ghost like that, if people dunno the fella might tot the fella got PMS. Smile also dunno, talk like no eat rice. Really wonder why SRI service quality drop until like that. No eye see man.

the boss also dont care wan.
last time my friend buy hdd and spoil in 1 week.
the boss wlk around so my friend ask him,he say duno.
hav to find another staff.

u can buy stuff from there but buy stuff tat no need warranty..
other wise go there to do servey oni..

emm... I also had bad experience with sri staff b4.
It was quite long ago when they just start/ open at lowyat.
I bought few hardware, just to upgrade my pc and ask their staff to install the motherboard , harddisk etc... .
The salesman promise and said it will be assemble in 30min, so i went window shopping and came back to found that they havent start doing their job.
I waited for around 1-2 hour and when i approved the technician , the technician
,sri staff with very rude say " wah , buy so few thing , also can ar , where got ppl buy thing like that one , ppl buy whole set one, like that better don buy.

Wow....if i haven paid, i will certainly not going to buy from them...

I never saw that guy now.. maybe kena Fire already....

seem more like only a best place for windows shopping ler.

unfortunately doesn't always works

i bought a pc system from sri comp about 2 years ago when i came back to malaysia, their prices are slightly higher than all the other shops but i figured higher price = quality
when i got home i get a faulty philips monitor, sometimes the display will turn yellowish, went to claim warranty 3 times, says fixed but took it home still the same even until today, waste of time and energy to take it back and forth
btw the monitor is still around for thrashing

avoid sri comp

yea bougth dvd rom b4 at sri comp..
the staff very rude... mcm bagus...bila tanye apa pun tatau...
dahla kuli je... mcm la tokey...
apa la salah buat baik.. bukan potong gaji pun...

dem i buy power supply

then go home tak boleh pakai!! kong?? expensive wor!
membuang masa!! so far fr kajang! penat ma
dem dem! later dun want buy at Sri Comp

so far i saw only MYPC willing to do a free checkup for those customer on the spot.

they got alot of staff there, thats y they cant control their staff easly

tis sounds like helping them..?

but allit hypermarket still ok ler the attitude.

my boss bought a hard disk, 120GB from them, and within 1 year, it spoil, then send back for waranty, but then that sri comp didnt do anything to it, just keep it for 2 months, then tell my boss it is ok 1...
then my boss test it, and found it is still spoil 1, and send back again....
then the guy in sri comp told my boss it is not warranty anymore since it is more than 1year already, .....so beware to buy thing or send thing back to sri comp for waranty....cannot trust 1

Did u complaint to their boss?

so you're implying that companies that have lotsa staff dun need to supervise their staff lah? so in that case walmart which has more than 100000 employees worldwide dun need to have friendly, helpful staff lor? open your eyes, that's what supervisors are for! do you know what's customer satisfaction? bet you dont

my own experience a few days ago was when i bought the belkin surge protector, which offers lifetime warranty and warranty for attached electrical products which are damaged while connected to the surge protector. So i asked the girl cashier when i was paying 'so where do i claim warranty?' she said 'lei kong mat yeh ar?'. i know this is not a big prob, but at least reply me in english lah, it's not like everyone in kl speaks canto rite. then i proceeded to another end of the shop and asked the ppl at the hardware corner, all of them talked to me in canto even if i asked in english! man i cant even speak proper canto nor understand lotsa canto. imagine if i dun understand a word of it. in the end, staff ask other staff, after about 5 ppl only 1 guy came out n say that cant claim warranty from them. sigh, i rather them have 1 knowledgable and helpful staff over having 5 idiots who can't even do things right.

i like to go to Thundermatch to shop my computer parts....
they are friendly also!!

Sri Comp, most of the people rude, muka masam, and unfriendly the way they communicate with customer.

Thundermatch recommended

Actually sometimes I notice alot of the "SALESMAN" don't know what are they talking about wan lah. So u have to be savvy your self.

One day my friend when to a "SALESMAN" and ask about computer stuff, my friend wanted a freaking POWERFUL computer and willing to spend at least 10k on his new comp. That stupid "SALESMAN" con him like hell tell him all sorts of old stuff and put at the price of the latest stuff. My friend that knows nothing much about computers think that he is an expert, so happen I was there at that time and i greated him and my friend ask me to hear that SALESMANs specs whether it is a good buy with his 10k cash in his pocket at that time. That stupid SALESMAN think I don't know anything and when on blab.

I ask my friend to buy the oposite site and config him a kick ass machine to play his DOOM3 and HALF LIFE game.

*no company names mentioned*

edit:
oh yeah that time DOOM3 just came out I think... and his computer can play near full details and everything ON. PRETTY POWER for that time.

I did enquire from them the price for a mobo, processor and RAM. The guy quoted and said have to add RM20 becos not buying full set from them. I said never mind, TQ. In my mind I said "U go and FLY KITE".

as i said in my other post plz la read b4 purchaisng dunno ask no one will fark u the most also sum flames wth flames make u more aware on wat u r dealing wif.

now buy already got prob wan come n start farking the shop the ppl in it n the monther n the father n God knows wat

sri comp motto - if u see, u must buy
wtf??? i hate sri comp..

Thundermatch is not bad la...don't know about low yat but the guys I dealt with a few months back at the pyramid branch were pretty good and polite. Thundermatch staff at pyramid quite good. But for sri comp,diff story. I bought some stuff from there, sometimes the staff good, sometimes pretty lan c. Last time I bought a pair of speakers from there, the guy let me listen to all the speakers should me a couple of models and even waited for me to make the decision which took a while. But just recently, went to ask for casing, standing for about 15 minutes looking for someone, I guy sitting at the desk doing nothing, when I asked him he buat muka semacam only.

all customer refer to the lyp branch lah.

Mind as well file a report to the consumer right department (or something). b****ing around here is not gonna help to solve ya problem. It might as well set a thread listing which shop/company has the best/worst reputation as refrence to other plps who visit this forum.

Cheers.

I have a story to share about from SRI COMP also.. Last saturday i went to low yat to buy UV CCFL.. I walk the whole lvl 2 and ask more that 6 to 7 shops about this item and all shop say there didn't sell.. And then me when to the SRI COMP shop. I go in find the UV CCFL but i couldn't get that item. Then i saw that item was display so i ask the worker.. (malay staff) "Bang.. Ada jual UV CCFL tak, then he reply TAK ADA" then i say WTF i think is loud enough to here between me then he went off. Then i go ask other staff (malay also and this staff quite good and friendly) i ask him again "Bang.. Ada jual UV CCFL tak? saya nampak display ada tapi staff lain cakap tak ada. Then he guide me go and show where it is and show me which 1 is better. then i say "Ada Warranty dan boleh test? then he Reply warranty ada seminggu. Then he call me go out and pay. Then i went out to the cashier and the dumb staff (that malay staff who say no that item) Then i call him to test and he went to test and show give me see.. The most funny thing is The UV CCFL is rm39 (that show on the tag price) And then the cashier type RM15. Then i also blur and looking at the staff.. then She check back the resit only know her mistake. I dunno wat SRI COMP have hired wat staff. Me jz wan to go to SRI COMP today to buy UV fan and ANother UV CCFL. But some people told me that shop have many unsatisifed customer. So that i think izit have other shop that sell UV CCFL and UV fan? ANy shop from LOWYAT which have still this item?

Think that shop juz hired bunch of zombie workers...Slow, dumb and stink.

lucky me i know 1 staff there where i can take granted......hehehe baddddd me
cheapo price as evaaaa...... other staff damn ignorance la, so i just
ignore them. i use go there belek2 buka n when their staff come just walk away.
you can see their face lo...... try once n u know!!!

dun buy thing from Sri Computers.Last time i went there buy an altec lansing speaker.They took me an old stock so i requested for a new unopened box.Then the worker face showing baad sign,like hate me so much.Sucks....
Better go buy thing at All-IT on lvl 3!

luckly they willing to let me change my altec lansing to a creative speaker within 7 days.

Sadly there isn't many ppl aware of it........
The shop is quite big so many ppl attracted to it and they let ppl test their speaker. They earning BIG money no point complain so much.

Went to LYP for some item yesterday and browsed through Sri Comp. Wah, the staff made donno at me, never tried to ask or serve me. Made me feel like my money 'not laku ka here?' or maybe because I was still on holiday and went there wearing t-shirt and slippers only, I 'low-value' customer. Last-last I went and bought my stuff elsewhere

that is mayb bcoz lately many customer only want to do a quiet window shopping i guess.

last holiday me n my gfren went to lowyat..n found sricomp, pretty big comp. store. ask bout ram's n gcard wanting to buy , wah the sales guy terus answer in a rude unmanner way like no time to layan one.i gues my gf was unhapy the way he treat us..so she jst say "thank u for ure time but we'll get it at the next shop" omg me jst smile back n so shock she say that..we went out n buy at cycom in the end

It's like never-ending bad stories of Sri Com since I joined this forum few years back

This post has been edited by vearn27: Nov 9 2005, 02:24 PM

the never ending story ... lol

wow, wat a lady i c, not yet saw a female fire sri com b4 so far.

i still dunno why SRI COMP still full of ppl and buying stuff from them..!!

i kena tipu also from sri comp..
dun ever go there anymore..!!
1malay stuff gimme wrong cable.. i need 3pin to molex he gimme cdrom to soundcard..

actually there are many people just do window shopping at there..because there had a wide range of product.some people ask this ask that and open the box to see the product..but never buy.so the stuff there are tired of entertain u..(maybe only).

i had very good comment in this shop, cos i know a malay guy who are friendly and willing to spend his time for me..even if i ask for a few product with preview but dun buy...

yah true also....for this "but never buy.so the stuff there are tired of entertain u"...
sometime we are too much haha!!...
soemhow i feel the sri com people not friendly lah...maybe their are too tired...haha..i just go there to buy acessories only, most of the time i went to ThunderMatch, that shop is ok, especially got one man call KK, he si friendly, nice to be friend with.

hmm...open the box and see i think it was ok, at least we wanna to see inside condition.

haha...some accessories are truely available in Sri Com..haha...and pricing wise, ok ok la!...

usually i buy accessories in Sri Com...buying hardware in ThunderMatch..

ermm ermm... if i had not mistaken we have a poll last time bout d worse ship in LYP... n sri com scored bad...

a lot of bad news bout it lor....

so far i only been conned by all-it d ccb chinese supervisor.... i know d boss mr.yee so i dun 1 make fuss bout it ler...

Me too, kena tipu. Go there and change my mobo. Later when I came back found out the new mobo cannot work. Bring back again. They tell me my mobo and PSU spoilt. They charge me for a new PSU and installing new mobo.

Conclusion ask them to install new mobo need to pay 2 times installing fees, mobo and PSU price.

They are the one who mess up my thing and I am the one to pay for it. Bloody hell.

Bought a razer mouse and a razer exactmat from them. Maybe i was lucky, a young good looking chinese boy explain very detail to me and give me the cheapest price compare to oter store. Somemore he went into the store room get a new set for me, he said the item on the rack many customer open the box and put it back, dun want to sell me defective item. But after reading all this, it is unbelievable.

the boss very weird,always walk wit school bag!
