Imagine if the results from the checking turns out negative.

Maxis : "You're not worthy to purchase this phone! Begone and pay us firsssstttt"

U know the difference between pre-check and register for interest? Did I see the word ROI at maxis website? It clearly says PRECHECK isn't it? Means checking for existing customer previous contract and eligibility to signup extension plans with iphone 6.

Agree.. actually I still got 2 more months to go before my contact expires, good that there can be an extension or some form of grace period.

1 Club member, Maxis user for 18 years... I've never gotten an invite to buy anything lol

I think the people who get the invites for the first XXX are probably the ones who are noisy on social media and not necessarily loyal customers/high bill customers. That said, I'm probably going to buy contract free

18 years.... they treat u so nice?

Actually if count ADAM/TIMECel that got bought over by Maxis then it's 20 years

Not some big shot on social media... that's probably why I get so "nice" treatment haha...

Same scenario here , over 15 years and counting but never treated well LOL. Iphone 5 also not even invited to pre launch even thou i ROI on the first hour they open up. Their loyalty scheme indeed has some problem.

i got invitation for iPhone 5 and 5S.. but i signed up 5 with digi instead and skip 5s.. hehe..

Why I choose imos. Been using for 2 years plus on the brand.

I'm just a MOC Select member and every iphone launch, i get invites. even last year for the 5S, they called me to ask my order. i said no thanks. this year if they call, might wanna get it but i still feel like playing both phones in my hand side by side before committing. lets see...

Interesting... I wonder what the criteria is for the invites then...

I was Maxis users for around 10 years.
I had one nice/surprise experience when I went to Machines to buy 5s.
After purchasing, I was shocked that 5s sim card is smaller. Nevertheless, walked over to Maxis and queued.
Finally it was my turn, the lady proceeded to process my new sim card. Then I asked her how much, she said no charges for me, since I've been with Maxis for 10 years.

I was expecting RM25 or RM50 payment.There was once, I was charged when my sim card was broken.
So this time around when they waived it I took it as a good gesture from them, albeit the small amount.

As a conclusion, Maxis is not that bad, but perhaps they have plenty more rooms for improvement.

Not sure if i want buy from telco or machines. Hmmm

Cause my 5s using maxis line.

Good to know telcos do have some appreciation for long term customers. I did my checking on the sim card specs and swapped my micro simcard for the nano simcard like 2-3 weeks ago in advance. Don't forget to do this if you come from iphone 4! Iphone 4 runs on micro, not nano simcard

All it took was my time coming to celcom's big bluecube branch and RM 0. They also said no cost because I was a customer for over a year (actually I am for 5).

The new simcard got activated before my ass left the chair at their counter. Not bad at all. They did say the activation period was fast because not a lot of new activation request at the moment though.

LOL...

My experience differs.

Maxis overcharges me when they first introduce the credit sharing between principal and supplementary lines. Then they charged me for the sim change which the CS told me is free. Yes, I paid nothing when I get it over the counter but was surprised to find that a RM10 (or 15) was being reflected in my bill. Moreover it was them who recommended the sim change after I continously screwed them for poor 3G speed.

Talk about Digi. 3G were slow for them back then but when I get a Nokia N9 to test, I didn't have a micro sim. Walked into Digi Solaris and they provided the sim change for free. It was broken after I ejected it for few times to compare and they replaced it again for free.

No doubt I was sold on Maxis Internet speed and device discount, but that was a thing of the past. Now the only reason why you would sign Maxis is solely for the 4G speed. They knew it which is why they ain't bothered with Digi and Celcom outdoing them for Note4 contract pricing.

Get off your high horse mister. They are not challenging your "capacity to pay" and your good credit history. This is standard for everyone.

All people who wish to order WILL go through the same page, regardless of your capacity to pay and if you have money. Of course they are going to check everyone's records, your lock-in period for previous phones owned, etc. If someone who has a negative credit standing pre-registers, of course they would still be checking with their accounts. Or maybe a foreigner wants to apply, but being a foreigner Maxis would want additional requirements.

Self-entitlement much?

Celcom ROI is up.

Thanks for the info man

Thanks for the info !!
