Im surprised that they don't learn from other brands mistake. First is the server issue on PO date, they should be anticipating a high volume since they are opening for pre-order of the device but yet, they can't cope with the volume of traffic accessing their online shop. By the time people can log in, it's mainly no stock and all, that would certainly leave a bad taste to a lot of people's mouth.

It's just another gimmick and a failed gimmick I would say. Generated more hatred compare to love . Yup, I think if people getting just the phone, it's better to just get it from Apple store online, minus the hassle of asking for stocks, rage when there's no stock, can keep one emotions in check.

As for people who wants to have rebates by being on contract, guess it's best to just wait till the demand cools down before buying.

Best way to do it is to charge it to your credit card, then do a transfer balance to MBB card as they are having a promo right now.

It's mentioned quite a number of times, CIMB charge overseas interbank rates when you use it on Apple Store online.

No worries, should follow this thread. Then you would've avoid using CIMB card for that transaction.
