Anyone know how to contact SEA Web Payments by phone call? The payment service is just terrible
23rd August 2021 : Make the purchase and received notification from bank of the transaction (credit on hold) and peripheral is mail out
25th October 2021 : Notice the delivery status "Your order is currently on hold due to credit issue". Send an email to seapayments@lenovo.com to inquiry about it.
26th August 2021 : Contacted 1800-88-5266 to find out the problem and was informed the "SEA Web Payments" will contact me within today. 1 hour later received an email the order is cancelled. Then I call again, inquired why is it cancelled then the order status change to onhold. 2 hours later, received an email "We have been unsuccessful in receiving an authorisation from your card. You may have exceeded your credit limit or your issuing bank might have blocked the transaction for security reasons. Please note we will attempt to reprocess your card payment over the next 5 working days, if payment remains unsuccessful - we will cancel your order.". Contacted bank said credit onhold on 23rd August 2021 (the day i make the purchase). So it should not have problem for the payment unless they charge me new transaction, then really exceed my card limit. Till end of the day no call from them and 5 working days is from when?

If there is payment issue just contact the customer not directly cancel the order. QUOTE(ZM Fong @ Aug 26 2021, 07:55 PM) To clarify, it's for authorization. Mainly for credit card. Which is why debit card is not supported, since it will keep charging the same amount until ur transaction limit reached If i am not wrong once authorized it will hold the credit for 5 days or more (that is they do not charge it directly).. Then I have no choice but to ask the bank to increase the credit limit temporary, not sure the bank will allow it or not. If they hold the credit again for the second time,  QUOTE(cyrobytes @ Aug 26 2021, 08:07 PM) Got my laptop today, was going thru the payment issue with my debit card. Decided to call customer service after 2nd charging on my debit card. Request to change to direct deposit instead and the CS is kind enough to help me up as well as to expedite my shipment date. From initial estimate delivery date 30 Nov to delivered by today 26 Aug (less than 4 weeks).  I think the cash and credit card payment is different department, there is a risk they might charge you both side due to delay / miscommunication  And that brick This post has been edited by jimmy_none: Aug 26 2021, 08:18 PM

QUOTE(lovingforyou @ Aug 26 2021, 08:46 PM) So do i have to do anything? I didn't receive any problem / cancellation / information regarding my order I just noticed the credit limit that on hold by lenovo is not holding anymore Conclusion, they will hold and release, hold and release the credit limit, until they shipped it out, hold and charge  mine is they hold and charge again.  get the credit limit problem. is better you call them check the status increasing credit card limit is not possible  And the credit hold up will be release after 7 days..

QUOTE(Dyson Jin @ Sep 4 2021, 10:13 PM) Bought on 25 August received this email today.. Ordered ThinkBook 14 G3 ACL so let's when will arrive.. Using cc as payment method.. so it will charge,hold,cancel,charge again,hold..maybe later will cancel again.. until the shipment truly shipped,then only will fully charge i think.. to be safe.. make your remaining credit limit is at least twice the amount of your laptop.. mine got charge hold on Monday and Wednesday got charge hold without releasing the previous hold and exceed the credit limit..

QUOTE(lancelot567 @ Sep 20 2021, 11:03 AM) Not sure what to do, found out they gave me Realtek RTL8852AE WiFi 6 802.11ax PCIe Adapter instead of Intel Wifi 6 AX-200 as stated in spec. Anybody have the same issue?   Have you or anyone filed a complain to Lenovo? Or just accepted it.

QUOTE(lancelot567 @ Sep 22 2021, 09:34 AM)  Some people complaint about it, if your laptop wifi chipset is not soldered you can change it easily. Refer to this guide or you can search in youtube, many people done changing their wifi. https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Lenovo+Legion+...lacement/139292thanks. I have reported to lenovo since is still under warranty and the wifi card should be Intel according to the purchase detail.

QUOTE(jimmy_none @ Sep 21 2021, 10:29 PM) my wireless is mediatek mt7921. worse than realtek? I want to ask anyone having problem with the wifi card and manage to solve it? I have turn off the "Auto Turn Off" but connection is not stable. Connect and disconnect. Reported to Lenovo, since they gave me different wifi card and their reply is "the machine that you have purchased was supposed to come with Mediatek wifi card and not Intel wifi card as published." Gave 2 options , 1. Full refund 2. 5% discount. Full refund probably I will be paying more for next purchase.. Is changing Wifi card easy? will it void the warranty? From Lazada, Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX200 11AX is selling around RM100..installation is the risky part..

QUOTE(deathbringer @ Sep 27 2021, 06:22 PM) Mediatek wifi cards do not have the most stable connection, but should do the job. what laptop are you using? if you are running the Lenovo Vantage, do not activate "network boost" or you're gonna have a bad time. i do not recommend full refund since new laptop prices now are too high for lower specifications. changing the wifi card is very easy and does not void warranty. the hardest part is removing the back cover of your laptop. Frequent disconnect is  .. Even when the lenovo support asked to remote in.. i cannot get the wifi up, end up using LAN cable. Lenovo Legion 5 2021 Ya the cover.. saw the Youtube.. looks easy .. if you do it before.. I notice the models for Legion no longer state what Brand.. only features.. e.g. Wi-Fi 6, 802.11AX (2x2) & Bluetooth® 5.1. This post has been edited by jimmy_none: Sep 27 2021, 09:41 PM

QUOTE(deathbringer @ Sep 27 2021, 10:06 PM) i also replaced my Killer 1650x wifi card, which was suppose to be good, but gave problems just like yours. so i got an AX210 card instead and everything is good now. replacement is easy and straight forward. the youtube videos help. i also noticed that lenovo no longer states what wifi card you're getting (unless it's the killer card for the Legion 7/7i). i guess they cannot provide the Intel AX200 card anymore. either mediatek or realtek are the options now and you can't even choose. may i know where you get your AX210 and how much? Is it not overkill to get AX210 instead of AX200 unless your router/modem support Wifi 6E? thank you..

QUOTE(terion @ Sep 28 2021, 10:33 AM) u can try changing the connection mode from AX to AC, see if it improves the connection while waiting for ur AX200 do note AMD cpu can only use AX200, AX210 is for intel only Thanks will try to tweak the settings first.. I checked AX200/210 is shipped from China for the RM180 price. Local is more expensive. Any reputable recommended seller? USB Wifi is no joke the price is almost double.. way over the 5% refund..  Update changing it to AC seems stable for now.. need more time to test.. This post has been edited by jimmy_none: Sep 28 2021, 10:45 PM

QUOTE(vanguard_15 @ Nov 6 2021, 10:11 PM) hi, just curious, which model did you order that had a different Wifi card? I'm getting a bit paranoid seeing that my order is on the way already suppose Intel Wifi but comes with MediaTek. If you order in October 2021, probably you will not have wifi brand/model in your order. They updated the list to Wifi only without brand/ model.
