I called my bank, they said the merchant (Apple) needs to collect the money from the bank because the credit is not automatically transferred to them for safety purposes. Then Apple told me they need to prove to the bank that it was indeed me who ordered, that's why they needed the statement. Makes sense now...

And although the store is in Singapore, the goods is shipped from China, so I will have to wait 4-5 working days, says the customer care personnel...

Here T-Shirt hahahah ### of la

Do you really know what "Back to school promo is?",its an annual promo that is done in US,its their own program where school and college kids get to go back school and get good deals on all computer not only macs. Dont be so greedy and talk as if you know everything about the online store or put down our online store most of us,hardcore mac users have been awaiting for it's release for many years,Apple Malaysia has come a long way. The T-shirt was just a thank you gesture when the store started.

experience as in making a purchase through the apple online store..

hi i just purchased one thru edu pricing yesterday,my experience is never use bank transfer it'll be awfully slow,you cant use maybank debit card either cause its only meant for physical swipes not for online purchase. i used public bank debit card,it works smile.gif normally the item should be arriving by 4-5 days make sure you purchase before 3 to allow for on the spot processing. use CC also can hehe.

they have no business asking for your statement. the most they should do is ask for a copy of the card and signature to verify.

wow thanks for replying to my post, may I know how is it that it is no longer that way? I'm interesting in getting the ACPP from Apple Online Store as it is much cheaper than the retail price here. *(If the credit card statement thing method had been abolish)*

Regards.

well thus far my friends who bought thru the online store with student edu with their father's cc,didnt require bank statements,normally its the bank especially HSBC that will call u up if its a big transaction. I think it was the early days that made them quite paranoid.

until today, no news on freebies for the New 2009 MBP(from the website)
coz I stay in Ipoh, as here do not hav an apple reseller
mayb u can check the reseller store in KL for better info
but according to Maccity and Machines website
freebies only applicable to the previous gen Macbook, macbook pro and air n mac desktops

Added on June 16, 2009, 5:41 pm

from my prediction
A new 10" touchscreen Mac is juz around the corner
coz Apple already ordered the 10" touchscreen a few months ago
nw they put the UMB 13 as MBP 13
n left the almost half a decade old MB there
iz it quite obvious they will launch something new anytime soon

Speed bump might be around late tis year, juz a few weeks before Christmas (normally)
*
dude get ur facts right the first MB was launched on May 16, 2006. its just 3 years and 1 month old how is it 5 years?

Guys, I would like to buy an iPod touch through the Apple Online Store.

Any idea on how long will it take for me to receive the item if I make my order today? Will adding engraving delays my order even longer?
*
normally its 2 days only without engraving. with engraving its a week coz its engraved in china.

if the online store they support installment plan..like dell ..confirm alot will buy

actually you could do that,charge the lump sum to your card and call the bank to make it a flexi payment over a period of xx months,there'll be charges though.

IMHO, that's not the case any more. read my previous post. I've also check the US Apple Online Store, the estimated ship is 7-10 business days for 2.53GHz (both 13" and 15") MBP. Normally, and if you look at other MacBook models, the estimated ship is within 24 hours.
*
maybe its a shortage of the2.53ies.
