Correct me If I am wrong,
From what I read in forums around here, why some walk in customers can get their phones within the day and always have stock when pre-order customers like me have to wait so god damn long for my stock to arrive?
I think this is a little unfair, as because, Maxis should reserve those limited stocks for those customers on the long waiting list, because they pre-ordered it earlier, and some even paid the deposit and sign up for the plan while waiting for stock.
As for my case, I register myself on the waiting list 2 weeks ago, and they have not even contacted me for my phone yet. When I called Maxis, and they boldly told me the whole of Klang Valley ran out of stock for the 32gb model that I ordered and can't even tell me a probable date of arrival for the next stock intake. However as I see from this forum, certain outlet do have stock coming in from day to day, which contradicts with their statement. Why are they not rationing their stock accordingly?
I could have no qualms and wait patiently if there is genuinely no stock, but I do not see that happening through browsing this forum.
I know this is not within your control as you guys do not represent Maxis, but could anyone here who knows more about this matter could kindly clarify me on the real deal behind this kind of act.

yeahh sounds like something fishy here..my gf in the wating list and have to wait for few days..but how come u guys can get within a day?
Nothing fishy here / either with Maxis. It is just that their 123/customer care consultant will probably/mostly not updated with the stocks level of every branch.
You either get yourself the contact of the desired Maxis Centre branch, and contact the person-in-charge.
Otherwise, just follow the advise/latest stock level update from fellow LYNer, to get your iP5.
