Hye all.. please help me..

https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3474457

Need help and guide from lowyat members. Im seriously very frustated with what happen right now. The story begin like this.

I just bought iphone 6 plus 128gb from Machines in Sunway Pyramid on 17 Jan 2015. As an apple procedure, we have to pay first and then can only open the box. So i paid and they open the box, i found that there is damage at the phone which is under the screen at the side right of the phone. So ask them to change new one. They say cannot. Have to go to machines service center to claim 1 to 1 phone. So i just proceed with the purchase.

So today(19 jan 2015), i went to machines service centre in Midvalley to claim the warranty. Suddenly, they said it is a cosmetic warranty which is not cover under warranty. (WTF????). They say they ask me to refer back to outlet where i bought.

So i like stupid person go here n there, go to sunway machines and see the manager. They also said they cannot do anything. Seriously im really pissed off. The manager said email to contact@machines.com.my to report a complain. Because he cannot do anything.

I call apple customer service, they say if buy online, u can claim if anything damage on the phone within 7 days. I said, so how about my case, they said has to refer to machins back since bought from there.

Seriously i really need ur kind of help. I thinking to make polis report. I just give them 2 option. Money return or change mew iphone.

Please guide me.

Sorry nothing we can help as we already posted many bad experience with machines. They only interested to sell phone, not claim warranty. They will accuse u 101 reasons so hat u cannot claim. U didn't buy direct from Apple, so they also cannot help u. The most u can do now is go to the branch u bought and demand see manager.

A friend of mine just updated his FB status about a Machines outlet selling him a scratch devices. Not sure iphone or others. Same like previous user problem luckily he manage to get replacement after argument with the Manager.

No use. U cannot tag Apple US. I tried that before. Go to official machines service center fb and post review there. Many including me have done that. U can see all the bad reviews there.

definitely bad experience, just make sure you guys get what you pay for. i never had any good impression with the resellers here anyway. but during my uni days in australia buying from apple store is just wonders. top notch 5 star services, not like here some of the employees are not even properly trained!

btw buying from apple store online is much better, their online customer service is 10x better. i rather pay full price get premium customer service than paying full price and get lousy treatment from under trained monkeys  shakehead.gif  doh.gif

Not true if u call Apple hotline malaysia. I think it's redirected to one of the resellers. If u call direct Apple singapore, totally different story. Top notch service. Just go online pole store look for their toll free number.

Within 7 days, 1-1 exchange. They will send courier service to collect and give you the replacement instead.
My sister's 4S which was bought from online had issue earlier and just sent in at the centre in Berjaya Mall (opposite of Times Square) and replaced her a refurbished unit, that time she was at her 11th month of warranty. thumbup.gif

But good luck if after 7 days. They direct u to local reseller service center.
But if within 7 days(some say 5), no questions asked. They ask u email them a photo and they send courier come collect.

if online order from Apple... is it Apple and not Machines' if want to claim warranty?

Already asked many times. If within 7 days, Apple replace 1 to 1 no questions asked. The most they ask u email them photo of defect. They send courier over to ur place to collect.
If after 7 days, too bad, they ask u go to any local reseller service center.
But any decisions the stupid reseller do, Apple can overwrite and ask them to go ahead and replace.
For the case where defect when just bought from machines, u r at their mercy. Apple cannot overwrite them. Technically machines already bought the device from Apple and paid by machines. So the phone is machines'. Machines will have final say.

Hi all. Please help me.

New iPhone 6 user here. I received my iPhone on Monday afternoon. Buying from Apple online store. Yesterday my iPhone suddenly died when I take out from my pocket. Last time I check my battery was around 70% which is 20-30 mins before I put it in my pocket. Already done hard reset and charging around 2-3 hours still can't on. I put it in my front pocket and it seems like there is no bend at all. Is it possible to ask for 1 to 1 exchange? Because just read that someone said within 7 days if my iPhone got problem can ask for 1 to 1 exchange.

If till now still cannot on, pls quickly call their hotline. U can find Apple singapore hotline in the Apple Store.

Yea, their service was very good. No, I just explain to them the problem of my iPhone and the operator transfer me to Apple online store support for arrangement of 1 to 1 exchange.

Actually before I call Singapore hotline I already call Malaysia hotline where the operator ask me to make report thru their website because they still close. Hahaha

Btw, thanks for your suggestion to call them.  thumbup.gif

you don't have to read the things you don't want to for GOD sake.

It's wrong when page 1-100 is about battery ...
And page 50-100 is about losing 1-2 hours running time due to update 8.1.3.

is it worthwhile to buy iphone 6 plus now or wait for the new generation which mostly will announce in the coming september? i knew this might be a silly question. but i just looking for more opinions and ideas. since iphone 6 plus been announced about 5months ago.
*
That's the problem with gadgets. If u buy it, the next day it's obsolete. A newer phone from other company would have came out with better features/specs. Same goes for ip6s/ip7. Especially true for Samsung phones as they come out many models a year.
If waiting game, u will never buy any.
Just see Ur needs. If u don't really need it yet and can wait, then wait. Otherwise get it. Furthermore, with Apple Eco system, ur phone will still have the latest so for the next 2 years.

Very major difference I must say. Lag and full of junk ware unless u r on nexus. Regardless if 4gb ram. So what is the use? Example, I put airplane mode at night, next day wake up 2% gone. And I am those that disable everything from app and data manager.
Yet ppl here complain how come my 100% > 99% became faster after update? They should go try other os.
Android Os update is very rare and security gaps are seldom addressed. Unlike Apple will address it on 2 weeks once highlighted to public.
Worst part, after 1 year, it's a bonus if ur phone os still have updates.
Yeah, I jumped from Samsung Galaxy series.
