One person's good experience doesnt mean you will have it. Now is 2019 NOT 2009! Best if when you are free and less stress, you walk into any telco to inquire.

Afaik, a company, eg TM, will not spend RM10k or more to go to court, to recover a debt of just RM1k or a few hundred RM. If big debt of many RMk, maybe lah.

Lawyer office gets a big commission from every small bad debt that it recovers and collects for a company, eg for TM. So, the lawyer office uses legal scare tactics to try to "trick" or get the debtors to pay.

I "owe" a mobile telco company about RM700 since about 10 years ago after I unilaterally stopped the service. I refused to pay because of its bad service = very slow Internet speed compared to its advertisement. Kena blacklisted by the telco but until today no court case yet.

not saying that your experience is not relevant anymore, but nowadays there are more small time law firm that do bulk work will take on those case for minimal to few hundred bucks cost

also TM aint interested with your few hundred bucks, they need to do that for their audit purposes, they probably have no intention to execute the judgment against you in the first place, it is the mechanism for them to write off bad debts for accounting purposes

https://www.thestar.com.my/news/nation/2019...ith-court-order - Indah Water to collect 14 years of arrears from premises with court order - Thursday, 07 Nov 2019


Recently, Indah Water got a court order to disconnect its sewage services from a retail lot that owes it 14 years of bill arrears = about RM5k, ie at the commercial rate of RM26 per month(= profit-gouging by IWK.?). IWK probably dismantled its toilet or sealed/blocked/plugged the toilet drain outlet with cement. Retail lots usually have only 1 toilet.
....... So, if owe a few RMk, we need to pay up before getting raided by IWK and the court. We can't win against the powderful government or GLC.

Of course, the retail lot owner may still refuse to pay up by paying a plumber a few hundred RM to reinstall or unseal/unblock/unplug the toilet or go shit elsewhere. If so, IWK would have to go to court again.

Many thought that IWK could not cut off their sewage services/supply like the easy cutting off of water or electricity supply or Internet connection if > 2 months' in bill arrears.
