Price also diff Jeju office for KT Kumho is nearby airport, while Lotte Hotel is on another side of the island.. IINM, if you want pick up rental car at Lotte Hotel, they will need to bring the car from Airport to Lotte Hotel, thats why pay a bit more.. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

QUOTE(cookwithjamie @ Feb 27 2014, 11:24 PM) I wonder how did everyone get less than rm1.5k return ticket to Seoul. Booked mine yesterday for March 20-29 for rm1950. haha, easy.. wait for promo season, usually during matta fair or year end.. that is for MAS.. For AirAsia, since they have random promo, just check it everyday..

QUOTE(_ChAoS_ @ Mar 31 2014, 10:54 AM) Need help in answering a question regarding Korail I'd made a reservation and provided the credit card details for a train ticket from Busan to Seoul. I called Maybank the same day and they received the order from Korail for the ticket charge. With this, i assumed that i no longer have to make any additional payments as i exchange for the ticket at the train station there. But it has been 3 working days and Korail has not accepted the payment from Maybank yet and it's still on floating status. Maybank told me that Korail have only 3 more days to accept the payment or it will be cancelled. Did anyone have any experience in booking train tickets from Korail online website? Did you also have to wait this long? For now, i have no idea what will happen when Maybank cancels the transaction after the floating time period and if Korail still recognises the booking without payment.. =( Last year i bought KTX ticket online.. IIANM, you will be given booking receipt if buy online.. When you go to station and exchange the booking for ticket, then they will charged your credit card on that day.. Might need confirmation from people going there in this few months back

QUOTE(rEvivEd- @ May 11 2014, 08:44 PM) Hi, I've a question. I'm currently in Korea now. and I wish to withdraw money through my maybank debit card ( I already activated the overseas withdrawall. ) I would like to know how will the rate be. For example, if lets say i would like to withdraw 100k WON how much will they deduct from my maybank debit card. p/s; is every atm machine is the same rate? they will deduct it according to the exchange rate + rm12.. you better withdraw as much as you need because rm12 charge is per transaction..

QUOTE(rEvivEd- @ May 11 2014, 09:16 PM) hi thanks for the reply, but where do i check the exchange rate? sorry i'm still pretty young and i'm here all by myself. we will never know the exchange rate before withdraw because it is fluctuate everyday, and there is bank charges too.. you can make a wild guess by looking at any exchange rate online like XE Exchange plus 1% or 2% for the back charges.. but if you have withdraw once, check you balance online then you know how much the exchange rate for that day, for next withdrawal..

QUOTE(eugene9201 @ Jul 19 2014, 06:32 AM) By the way, have anyone tried to use a multi sockets on top of an adapter in Seoul? Heard from the shop assistant in electronic shop that it might burn or something.. but I need to charge a lot things (laptop, camera, power banks, phones) at night at one time. Thank you!  it is safe to use multi sockets plug to power up multiple low Amp device like phones & powerbank.. just dont share it with refrigerator or iron.. most important, get a quality one with fuse or circuit protection..
