Beware 132 to UK

dayojah — Mon, 16 May 2022 17:07:46 +0800

I have been using the 132 prefix to ring a UK landline, getting about RM0.60 per 240 seconds
Last month this jumped to RM1.88 for 30 seconds, about the same as a normal call.
The result was my bill jumped from RM200 to RM700
There was no notice about this hike, you have to dig into the depths of the website
The rest of Europe is still a cheap VOIP rate.
No result after a case raised after 1 week so I am porting out
Is this worth reporting to the MCMC?

CAC inconvenience

dayojah — Sun, 13 Feb 2022 09:52:15 +0800

I have been asked to go to a CAC under a HSO, so logically go to the nearest.
Oh no, I live in Ampang, which is Hulu Langat, so I have to go to Kajang, which is a two hour drive a lot of the time.
I could walk to the Keramat one.
This is madness.

Casual contact self assessment period

dayojah — Fri, 21 Jan 2022 10:01:46 +0800

All of the quarantine periods coming down, but after getting tagged casual contact yet again, I will still have to fill in the form for up to 14 days.
I'm on day 3 and the person who triggered this, who I have not been in contact with is already recovered and negative. This was casual contact by being a neighbour.
Very annoying

MySejahtera reporting bug?

dayojah — Sun, 22 Aug 2021 11:45:38 +0800

Two weeks ago I got Casual Contact yellow status again, so I had to report health every day for 10 days and it went back to blue.
Then it kept prompting me to to report day 12, 13 & 14.
Then this morning two messages asking me to report at 2am
Checked this morning and it said day 1, but profile is still blue low risk.

Something is not right.

MYVI gearbox error

dayojah — Thu, 12 Sep 2019 22:16:12 +0800

My friends 9 year old Myvi 1.3 auto has started getting stuck. It starts, but sometimes cannot move forward or reverse.
When it goes wrong, the gearbox, battery and oil pressure warnings come on and the rev counter shows zero. Wait 10 minutes and the car runs normally.
I have checked the newish battery and fixed a loose connection.
One side effect is that the radio clock resets.
The SC say no faults in the diagnostics.
This looks like bad wiring or maybe ECU to me
