Maxis asked me to get an iphone4 from Digi. Terrible!!

Welcome to the world of Apple. :) says MunYee.

Actually rewarded myself something great and awesome yesterday (Saturday). It was like an advance birthday present to myself? :D Tadaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

Congratulations, Mun Yee. You have officially joined Apple group yesterday.

An Apple iphone 4! *wooooot. woooooot* I've rewarded myself an iphone4. 22 years, wait wait, chop first. Lemme count properly. *counting fingers*

Sorry, my mistake. :D Its not 22 years, it should be 21 years and 11 months of living in this planet, I have actually got myself some expensive gadget. LOL

I KNOW!! This is like.. so duhhhh that I actually bought something costs two k in my life, for the first time in the entire of my life, for like 21 years and 11 months of living?!! and FIRST TIME?!! Shame on me. Couldnt afford much exclusive/ canggih gadgets for myself. Never take up any part times also. I think I should have start, but ehhh, should be getting a permanent job next year. Sobz.

Back to the iphone4. The price is pretty cheap, but stilllll... Im just a student *sob sob* who is doing my intern now *sob sob* and the amount of the money that I hafta digged it out from my piggy bank.... *sob sob* Costs a bomb to me, but its okay and worth it to get something that I lurve and wanted it for myself.

But dont expect me to get something luxury, that is not a need in me yet, but sooner or later, who knows, probably when I've started earning pennies? ;D Thats when my career starts.

Well, I dont mind to spend on something that I really want and lurve. :)

okayyyy, I seldom pose all these kinda cutie cutie posing, but because Im in a good mood, lucky you. A picture of me posing "nicely" with my lurvley iphone4 baby!

all rite, this look much more better but is not purrrrrr-fect especially with my pimple on top of my forehead. Probably too stress in making decision whether to purchase iphone4/ bb torch. LOL. But I dont mind and I dont care, since Im in a good mood. La..la..la.. An ugly pic of me in my blog! Haha!

Im loving it

Day before: Saturday


Went over to the Gardens to check out the ticketing number on the Maxis iphone4 launch. Before purchasing it, I have a pretty much long thoughts on the iphone4 consideration, then only I've decided to head over to the ticketing counter and asked for a number.

Starting on Thursday (the day where Maxis launched the iphone4 in midnight), I double checked my confirmation booking of iphone4 in my email, and wtf, look what I updated in my FB status.


Yes. My mistake. I have actually booked the wrong timing, 2pm-6pm, Friday for the collection of my iphone4 but how can I apply for the half day leave in such a short notice? Dang. I really got a mixed feeling, aint sure Im happy or sad, but my plan was just to go with the flow. Let the God decide on whether I should save money to get some other things/ BB or just.. get the iphone4.

But its fated. God wants me to have it.

Finally my kind boy offered me and told me that he will be going to the Gardens and take the number for me since he dont have to work on Friday, and so....yea, I just accepted it since he's offering it, btw. XD

Reaching midnite at 12.24am, I've updated a furious status in my FB.


Why? Thanks to MAXIS. Lets see what had I tweeted on the same day, minutes before I've updated my furious status in my FB.


Story 1: Why am I mad over MAXIS?!

My boy went over to the Gardens and took the number for me. Fortunately, we got 4015, where the Maxis team asked him to come back in 6 hours later.

6 hours later which was 7.30pm...

I went over from my workplace and checked out at the current ticketing number; Sigh, what a long queue. Still left 400 ppl in the line. Guess that we should be back in 2-3 more hours later? We dont know.

All right, fine. So my boy and I went to had our dinner. After our dinner, we went over and checked the ticketing number again, 200s more to go. T_T

Im so tired and exhausted since I dont get adequate of rest when Im working on the last busy week. Needa rest, cant do anything more except for resting. Definitely a no-no for me to wait in Gardens until midnite just to collect my phone and what I needed the most is to get a fully rested body and mind so that I can have the energy to work and wake(at 5.30am) on the next day (Saturday).

We both then went back to our own respective home where he told me that he will then come over to the Gardens AGAIN (for the third time) in around 11.30pm just for the collection. The moment when he arrived in the hall, still left 90s more or less to go.

He then approached the Maxis team just to find out whether he can collect my iphone4 since the booking was made by me, with my name, NRIC and my number.

Thought I could actually use my iphone on the Saturday, I was so sexcited about it but Maxis somehow disappoints me and gave me a really bad bad negative services to a loyal customer like me!

I tweeted all these:


Story 2: Conversation between Maxis & Boy- Reasons why he left when he went to the Gardens for the third time

Boy: Can I ask if I can help my gf to collect her iphone4 since the booking is under her name?

Maxis: No, you cant. The booking is now registered using her name, so she should be the one who must have collected the phone on herself, or else she cant get any of the phone. We need her IC for verification.

Boy: But Im the main line user where she was previously registered under my name. She is now my supplementary line. Cant I just collect for her since her number was registered under my name.

Maxis: Im sorry. You cant collect for her. She need to come here for verification or else we cant give you the phone now.

Boy: Bro, please la.. I've been here since 3pm to take the number and now its 11.30pm. And I came here in around 8.30pm just now, waited for about 8 long hours, cant you just help me in getting an iphone for her?

Maxis: Sorry, the booking is all under her name, we seriously need her IC for verification. You cant do anything since you dont have her NRIC and we need her signature too.

Boy: Thanks..

p/s: Conversation is not 100% accurate, wrote it myself.

Just giving you guys a picture on what Maxis was trying to tell my bf, and that was it. Maxis said that I need to collect the phone myself. Note that.

But I got so furious when the Maxis are not even helpful at all.

Im not mad at not getting an iphone4 that night, but the thing that I mad was about the hours of waiting. Hello, its been 8 hours of us waited for that blardy damn phone, and we couldnt get one? Whada f is that!

Couldnt even control my hot temper in that moment cuz I got really really mad at Maxis services and so, I made a call to Maxis customer service to sought for a better solution from them.

Went over to Fb and search for Maxis profile and got their number there.


Dialled 1800 customer service line.

Story 3: Maxis asked me to get an iphone4 from DiGi- TERRIBLE!

Me: Hello. Im calling regarding tothe Maxis iphone4 launch in Gardens today, can I talk to respective person?

Maxis: Yes, I am.

Me: All right, can my friend actually help me to collect my iphone4 since I have already booked via online?

Maxis: You registered under your name?

Me: Yes. I registered under my name. Actually, I've been to the Gardens just now. My friend helped me to take number since 3pm and I went back at 8.30pm, still under waiting list. So happened to be, Im not free on that night and I asked my friend, who is my main line user went over to collect the iphone for me.

He just only been there knowing that he cant collect the phone on behalf of me. So can you all provide any other alternative solutions where I can collect my iphone4 if Im going back to the ballroom tmr? Or if I just book and leave down my contacts and collect it? Cuz Im really busy and am really unsatisfied with your services right now.

Maxis: Im sorry ma'am. The booking is registered under your name and your friend cannot collect it for you. We need your IC for verification and you need to sign on a document too to proof that you are the owner.

Me: Hmmm, all right, but is there any other solutions for me? Because I've been waiting for 8 hours, and its like a whole day already and Im not getting one of it in the end of the day. Cant you all just gimme any solutions/ priority so that I can have the phone upon my arrival the next day? For like if Im going to the Gardens tmr without taking any numbers to queue, I still can collect the iphone when I reach, is that possible?

Maxis: Im sorry, you can just come early in the morning. No matter what, you will still have to queue for it because we are giving you all the priority already. The launch is not open to public yet and Maxis are already giving priorities for Maxis users to book the phone and collect it in within these few days of launching.

Me: Okay, its not the phone that matters me much but its the hours of waiting. I've been waiting for 8 hours long and now you expect me to wait for another 8-9 hours just to collect that phone? And you want me to spend another day just for that phone? Its like a whole day man...

Maxis: I understand that.. But.. What can you do is just to come early in the morning and you can get your phone.

Me: Okay, if I come tomorrow, do I still need to take number for the queue?

Maxis: Yes. Everyone will gotta take number because Im not sure of the amount of people who booked for the collection of their iphone4 tomorrow. This wan is managed by the management, I dont even know how many people will be queue-ing tomorrow also.. So you can just come early in the morning.

Me: But Im not free in the morning. I just can come and collect in the evening and that means you want me to wait for another 8 hours more? Its like 18hours just to wait for that phone? Cant you all gimme any priority where I can just come for collection?

Its not that I dont wanna come for the collection, its just that Im busy. You see, I came over just now but there are still 200 ppl in the queue, and because I aint free, only I asked my friend to collect it for me. Cant you all just provide any other alternatives for me? 18 hours you know. If its like 2-3 hours I dont mind waiting, but now another 8 more hours.

Maxis: Yes... I understand that.....

Me: So you all still cant provide me any alternatives for me to get my phone?

Maxis: Yes, Im so sorry for that but you can just come in tomorrow. I cant do anything for you..

I was like whada f!!! What kind of services is this! DAMN IT!! Getting more and more furious.

Me: You must understand that is not the phone that I wanted it so badly, but its the HOURSSSS OF WAITINGGGGGG!!!!! And Im not getting any of the phones after 8 hours of waiting?!!!! Now you want me to wait for another 8 more hours. Thats crazy!!! Might as well I just go over to the Digi and get one from there???!!!

Maxis: Erm..... Yea.....

I LAGI PISSED OFF AFTER HEARD WHAT SHE TOLD ME!!!!

ASKING ME TO HEAD OVER TO THEIR BIGGEST COMPETITIVE AND GET THE IPHONE FROM THEM?!!!!!!!! GOD DAMN IT!!!!

Wanted to shout at that blardy fella already!!!! But, I calmly ended the call. *stupiak me!*

Me: If its like that, okay.. Thanks for the information. *sound low*

Maxis: Okieeeeee, Byeee.

p/s: Conversation might have been shorten it down and did not accurately scripted it down.

OMG!!! I cant believe it that thanked her for what she had asked me to do? DAMNNN!!!! I feel so stupid wei. Seriously. I need to bang wall already. DAMN IT!!! *bang bang bang*

Damn bengang!!! And tried to calm myself down, never ever wanna think of that stupid blardy Maxis poor services at all. Ruined my mood! Ruined my night!


Saturday


Next day right after my work at Sepang Gold Coast, headed over to Gardens and took the number only after I made a super very long decision, by myself. I thought that it would be better if I could just take the number first and decide it later whether to take or not to take the phone. :)

Before I took the number, I had a good chat with one of the Maxis team regarding on what did the Maxis operator team had told me yesterday night. Well, she was shocked to hear that from me and kind enough to apologize on behalf of Maxis to me.

I required them to send me the SMS updates for the current ticketing number and oh well, they did. Updated me at least half an hour once. :) They told me that they are already speeding up their working process. So yea, proud to say that they were kinda efficient that day.

600 ppl, and it took me only 4 hours of waiting, but of course I did not sit there waited for that phone la. I came back to the Gardens when the number is nearer to my number and when I arrived at the hall, apparently it only took in around15 minutes to wait for at least 20 ppl? Cool. Pretty fast and I was rushing for the 9.45pm movie in Tropicana City Mall as well.

source: pic taken in twitpic (first day of Maxis launch-Thurs midnite)

And yay! Finally I got my iphone4. :) And oh my lord, managed to catch up the movie with bunch of friends in Tropi City Mall too.


Knowing the next day (Sunday) that Maxis will be launching in only 5 outlets; TTDI, KLCC, Pavillion, Pyramid & Gardens, I dare not to take the risk to collect my iphone4 that day. Afraid that theres too many ppl who demanded for it and yes, bingo. Thank god I bought it on Saturday (last day of launching) in Gardens Ballroom.

My friend actually queue-ed at the TTDI outlet and I saw her tweet.
  • the earliest customer queued as early as 5am in the morning. *damn*
  • at about 9am, the queue stretches in about 7 shoplots, that long..
  • theres only 180 pieces in TTDI Maxis centre, and its out of stock now!
Heard that the Apple will be shipping in more iphone4 next week but cant guarantee when will they be shipping in here. Cant promise, so just wait la for those who wanted to get it.

a pic that I taken from her twitpic.

My goodness sick! iphone4 is totally driving everyone nutssss!!!!!! iphone is like a really femes superstar internationally and everyone is grabbing a seat for themselves upon the arrival. But at least I got mine and using it right now. Hooray!

Tested the flash & auto focus with my new babehhhhh! CLEAR!!
XD


Am totally happy with my purchase! You're earning more than a billionaire, Steve Jobs! Congratulations!


Welcome to the Apple world. ;D
