actually there is a marketing strategy.. so be smart next time lo.. everytime i c maxis/hotlink promotion, i do hv a look in their website 1st bcoz there is always T&C applied.. Added on August 4, 2007, 11:53 amQUOTE(cy_an @ Aug 4 2007, 01:32 AM) before that i cheated by the RM1 for 1000 message. They did't not mention the period sent those message. What to do?Maxis stra to attract coustomer... last time i oso purchased 1000msg/rm1.. but fyi, hotlink do state tat it's oni valid 4 1day, mayb u didnt read carefully..

QUOTE(jianee89 @ Aug 4 2007, 01:35 AM) Now i got to know , there is no free lunch . QUOTE(Mgsrulz @ Aug 4 2007, 01:56 AM) so blame the customer for being so greedy. Already stated inside T&C but don't bother to read at all... Knowing that's is marketing strategy but end up saying cheated by Hotlink.

QUOTE(chicaman @ Aug 4 2007, 10:24 AM) zzzzz less than 1day...... 1am to 7pm only 18 hours and who the f*k is going to sms in the middle of night when everyone is sleeping? deducted sleeping time left only 11hours.... They should put 6am to 12midnight.......that is the time ppl wakes up to do their work, phonecall, and sms Dirty HOTLINK, all go DiGi pls......I'm getting fed up thats why i changed to DiGi. Now my parents and sis waiting where 012 can convert to DiGi preserving their number. Then all change to DiGi, no one use hotlink later.....
their advert is MISLEADING!!!! Wow, me too. Hopefully they launch this service as soon as possible. Then I will surely change my existing number to DiGi..

I really SMS could offer a more attractive SMS rate instead of introducing this kind of crap!

Anyone that get cheated and knows Chinese, can contact CAP. Consumer Association of Penang... http://www.cap.org.my/cn/complain/index.htmlThey are very efficient 1....more efficient than mcmc which belongs to goverment... you know la...belongs to goverment..... They sure will sent Hotlink a letter and want them to explain....else....Hotlink's name will be famous actually i attempt to make a complain too but i am not cheated so can't launch it.

"valid from 1am-7pm daily" this phrase can't show that it will be expired in 18hours time , the secret is inside the FAQ that I don't even think of reading about that that time . Report ? I don't think i would do that . Just want to let everyone knows it .
For those who are not aware of Hotlink , Important : FOR EVERY NEW STUFFS THAT MAXIS OFFERS , READ THE FAQ , DON'T JUST WATCH OUT THE TERMS AND CONDITION AS IT DOESN'T TELL YOU THE WHOLE STORY .

even campus plan.. i also feel that DiGi is better...  actually report is good la, at least can prevent others from being cheated. because the CAP (Consumer Association Penang) might reveal this case in newspaper or their Utusan Pengguna......
