I believe the SEA region warranty is true and one to one can be happen here.

But I guess they are not aware of this.

I've sent email to both Qisahn and Sony Malaysia, as well as PS Asia. I doubt SONY Malaysia is aware of the issue, and as per what the service centre told me, I'm the first they've encountered and it means they seriously had no idea on this. But what anger me is aren't they supposed to be updated on this issue that hit worldwide. I believe our game community or industry in Malaysia is not strong, which mean they do not take our word seriously.

This is what the person from US Region told me:
[attachmentid=3780449]

So yeah. Let's see how they will deal with it.

But I'm just curious, is there ANYONE ELSE encounter the same Blue Light Of Death Issue in Malaysia/Singapore? Or just me?   

SONY Technician finally called me and confirmed with me that I will be getting a new replacement for my console.

BUT, it will take 7 - 14 working days.

So me, as a consumer who is impatient with his new toy and has been waited for so long, of coz not satisfy with the answer.

I called up to the CSC (Customer Service Centre), told them about this and asked them whether I am getting the first batch console, or 2nd batch console. Because it is not making sense at all if I am getting a first batch console after the 2nd batch is released.

If I am getting the 2nd batch then it still make sense, however if it's the first batch console, why don't you just get it from KLCC, since there are stocks available.

But there are still people purchasing from KLCC.

Well I gave them choice and reason which:
1. If it's the first batch stock, then I should be able to get it FAST, since there are stocks over at KLCC.
2. If it's the 2nd batch stock, then I accept the fact that I have to wait until the 2nd batch launch (which will be just in probably another week?)

So the person will double confirm with me again.

this time the 1st batch adoption of PS4 feels like a tragedy  

not surprise if PS4 will have other problems since its temperature is higher than XBone.

Probably anybody who purchase PS4 will play it in an air-conditioned room

SO,
After I've spoken with someone from SONY Service Centre:
1) Console is to reach on tomorrow from HK, and most likely to reach to the curve on Monday. They will call me back again after they have the ship schedule.

2) I was the first to sent to their service (that's what they said) which then makes me on the first of the list to receive.

3) Regarding on the on the spot exchange:
I've been told that as far as she knows, there isn't anyone got on the spot exchange, because stocks are very limited.

4) SONY Malaysia purchase vs. Retailers.
- SEA Regional warranty goes towards all as long as it is SEA warranty.
- It is a first come first serve process to repair / replace.
- However, back to the point 3, if there are people who bought the console from SONY Malaysia during launch, and found broken and send back to the SONY Malaysia (for example the curve), they MIGHT have a chance to get 1to1 replacement on the spot PROVIDED there are stocks left. If not, things will still go back to the normal process - First come first serve regardless on SEA or SONY Malaysia.

5) +2years extended warranty.
The practice was only for those who purchased from SONY Malaysia will be entitled. HOWEVER, this was for their other gadgets, and since SEA warranty is new, they will check again and double confirm with me.

May I know is the person who received the immediate replacement bought it from Sony The Curve Store or retailers?

From what the Sony CSC told me, majority of the console that will be ship on tomorrow is for those will to be replace.

sound like it's advisable to get the set from Sony rather than retailer (even the authorised dealer)

btw someone here mention that the curve restock 2nd bath PS4 already, is that true? I feel like going over tmr n grab one now @.@

i think whole sony asia only jason from ps asia is a professional.. I called him last time then he say still need to go through processing, then today called him, he got my contact number then he said he's gonna sort it out for me himself by calling 1300881233.. Then he's gonna call me in 1-2 days.. Atlast someone with brains lol

It's stuck in custom, waiting for clearance. She said by end of this week, but I say not tomorrow, not thursday, and probably Friday. Why?

Tuesday (today) - stuck
Wednesday - Document process.
Thursday - Send to The Curve. Count stock. Call up. Close door.
Friday - Please come.

I don't even know what batch is this. Now let's see if there's more drama when receiving like:
1. Oh shit got your console wrong, yours is camera bundle but we don't have camera for you.
2. Oh shit this is first batch actually, coz your console is 1st batch.
3. Oh shit we are sorry we missed out your order, please wait another 7-14 working days.
4. Oh shit did you just got another BLOD? We are sorry but please wait again.

If they really do give the excuse you mentioned I guess I will reply in this way to them:

1) Limited stock Are you dumb or fail in maths? Can't you see the amount that you needed to restock?
2) Sony only gave us this much Are you dumb not to report this to SONY or are you keeping to for ur own sale to hit your own KPI and sales target? If yes then I will fail you by complain about your treatment towards customer using social media. Dare me.
3) You're the only one that reported this issue Do you think I'm stupid?
4) Because it's purchased from SG you'll have to wait 7-14 days (while we try to bring in more) Why don't you tell me to go Singapore and get my console? What's next, because I didn't buy it from you personally? F U it's SEA regional warranty - first come first serve.
