Hi all, I need help.. hopefully I'm on the right forum.

So my brother was being approached by Pinggir Armada Sdn Bhd, I think it’s some 3rd party telco thing. He agreed to have 2 year contract with them (I know right wtf) because he thought maybe really can lower his bill and increase data. He's just a student...haih. So he paid some rm100 deposit and was being asked to send 3x Maxis bills as 'reference'.

Manatau his bill came - more expensive than what he used to pay to Maxis lol They just send him SMS to pay but never send itemized bill statement to refer to. Just a damn sms asking him to pay.. e.g. PAY RM150.00 to Pinggir PBB account. Whattttttt? So we whatsapp Pinggir Armada la.. walao, the staffs are not trained professionally. It is a headache la.. until now tiada bill. promise will send but never send. eh, i understand during this corona season, messages can be late and THAT'S OK but they kept giving non-helpful shit.

So I dug up their info hopefully I can help to settle on behalf of him but damn, it’s so dodgy. Pinggir Armada is a subsidiary of Avista. And Avista website is very weird.. They dun tell u what exactly they do but they put up nice generic words. Yadda yadda top telco service provider.

I dunno man, he kena pay penalty if he wants to terminate. damn soi for him =\

I want to know if anyone here has the same experience? Mind to share? I also dunno how to help clean up his mess.

Thx for reading

Thanks for replying.. the penalty fees are like, e.g., RM80 (monthly) x 24 months. haih.. I oso suspect scam..

Thanks for sharing the thread! now all these make bloody sense!!
