Complaint against tashfinsheikh - Maxis broadband

taaron — Wed, 24 Oct 2012 23:16:22 +0800

Forumer you are complaining against: tashfinsheikh

Item being sold/bought: Maxis mobile broadband (MIFI Modem and Simcard)

Original thread link: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2318481
Here is my 1st initial unsatisfied complaint in his thread --> http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2318481/+2560#

Date of transaction: 22 September 2012

Amount of money involved: RM950.00

Details of the complaint :

The main reason I'm posting here is due to the long delay of parcel still not received by me and the twist of facts by the seller. I'm going to post the timeline of what had happened in below in order to give a brief idea to all of you, please look closely on the timing.

Timeline:
Sep 22 (Saturday) - Paid a lump sum of RM950 to the seller by following his instructions

Sep 27 (Thursday) - Received call from Maxis for customer verification purpose. I am not sure if it was a GENUINE call or not. I still have my call history and the phone number was 012-5019143. However, I've sent a PM to the seller to inform him that I have received a verification call from Maxis. The seller told me that at this point of time, I should wait for the simcard to be activated and sent to me. Right after that, he sent a registration form and requested me to email the form back to him after completing the required details on the form.

Sep 28 (Friday) - I have completed the registration form and sent that form to his email. By the way, somehow I felt curious as to why I received the verification call from Maxis eventhough I have not yet sent the completed registration form to the seller. Is this in a correct order, received call then send the registration form later?

Oct 6 (Saturday) - Sent a PM to the seller asking on the status as totally no updates or news from the seller to tell what is going on. Seller replied and informed that Maxis will update him on Oct 8 (Monday).

Oct 10 (Wednesday) - I knew that the seller informed me that Maxis will update him on Oct 8 (Monday), however there is no news/updates from the seller until Oct 10 (Wednesday). I chose to wait until Oct 10 (Wednesday) to give some time to the seller as he might be busy or Maxis busy. I then sent a PM again to the seller to ask on the status, at this point of time I'm starting to get a little frustrated.

Oct 11 (Thursday) - Finally the seller replied my PM, however his reply was strange. In his reply, he asked me whether I have received the verification call from Maxis. What? Why ask me again on this? I have already told him that I already received such call since Sep 27. I told him to refer to my PM on Sep 27 on the Maxis call. Next, he said my postage is under transition and was posted since Oct 6 (Saturday).

Oct 15 (Monday) - Still not yet received the parcel ever since from Oct 6, 1 week has passed. I sent PM to the seller to ask how was it sent out and he told me that it was sent through Post Express. He offered to try to find the tracking number, and he even reconfirmed with me that the parcel was already sent out a week ago, and told me that I should have received it at this point of time.

Oct 16 (Tuesday) - A day has passed, sent a PM to seller on whether he managed to find the tracking number.

Oct 17 (Wednesday) - He then replied that he is not yet been able to get the tracking number. Besides that, he listed out my exact address that the parcel was posted out to, and also gave me the new phone number registered under my new simcard which was under the broadband simcard. I told him to follow up on this matter, but instead he sent a PM to me asking have i still not received the mail, and if not, he told me only got 1 way which was asking me to go Maxis center to get a simcard replacement. This suggestion is useless as I am still waiting to receive the modem. Although I can always get a simcard replacement, how am I going to use it without the modem?

Oct 18 (Thursday) - Postage since Oct 6, but still not yet received by me. Seller told me that all the parcel from a week ago got LOST during transit. Told me some have received, some did not received.

Oct 21 (Sunday) - Sent another PM to the seller on whether any action has been taken by him. Not long after, he told me that he has taken action and a NEW modem is going to be posted to me. In addition, he still asked me whether I am sure or not that I didn't received the old modem and simcard at my address. Pointless question if you get what I meant. If I have the tracking number, for sure I will do my part and investigate with Post Office on the status. He even told me that I NEED to go to Maxis center to get the simcard replacement. Same question asked again..Then, I told him that since a NEW modem is going to be posted to me, why not include the simcard? Why must tell me to get a simcard replacement from Maxis center? Why must I do that? If the seller insist to do so, ok then I'll go get a simcard replacement. But who is going to pay for the replacement? I have not asked the seller if he is going to pay, but I have found out that one of his customer has no choice to get the simcard replacement (instructed by the seller) and in the end the customer was the person who bear the cost. The seller sent a PM to me that he will try to get the tracking number and inform me by the next day Oct 22 (Monday).

Oct 22 (Monday) - At this point of time, I should expect some response from the seller. But none and I decided not to PM on this day and only to voice out on the next day Oct 23 (Tuesday).

Oct 23 (Tuesday) - Still no news from the seller after i sent a PM asking on status. I knew that he was online but no response from him. My PM was sent on afternoon, and his last active time was on the same day 6:08PM.

Oct 24 (Today) - Finally got a response from him. Please refer below for the response given by him. I haven't replied to him yet, but anyway please refer to my response in blue colour below.

QUOTE(tashfinsheikh @ Today, 3:24 PM)

bro I told you that I will send you the tracking number on monday, a day only I forgot to send and you wrote that many stuff on my thread , this is really bad, you could've asked me nicely and I would've told you that, as you should also know I am not the one sending it, it takes time to get update from maxis for tracking number and other stuff
(taaron) = Why am I not be able to raise my dissatisfaction on your thread? You think is really bad? I'm only doing my part as a pissed off customer, the usual complaints that customer is entitled to do so. Am I not entitled to let the others know my status? There are some other customers facing the same fate too, you know your own customers. Now you telling me that I could've asked you nicely? I'm expecting some reply from you on Oct 23 as you were online that time and my PM on asking the status was way earlier after you've went inactive in the forum. At least give me some updates to let me know what is going on instead of me kept quiet. Lack of communication leads to all these troubles and hassles if you get what I meant. Yes, you have told me before that Maxis sent the parcel and was not you. I understand that you mentioned that it takes time to get update from Maxis for the tracking number, but PLEASE at least update me as the long delay has stretched beyond my expectation.

you should've PM'ed me and I would've sent you the tracking number and if you wanted the refund for modem you could've asked me,
(taaron) = You telling me that I should PM you so that you will send the tracking number to me? I did PM you asking the status on Oct 23, but where is the tracking number? You tell me to PM, and yes I did. But where is your response? Some more telling me that you will send the tracking number? U sure or not? Now also have not given the tracking number. Where is your cooperation? I am very willing to do my part too but I am unable to do so as I really need the tracking number to investigate. From my past trade experiences, there was once a parcel delayed quite long, and decided to investigate with post office as I have the tracking number. If you can't do your part well, then throw all the hassles to me then by giving me the details of the Maxis contact person so that I can deal directly without troubling you. I am more than willing to do that. Refund for modem? You're saying that I could have asked you? Before you ask me that question, you should questioned yourself on why you have not given me the option to refund since you know that I am a frustrated customer? You are not professional as you did not offer refund at the first place, I'm sure some of your customers are facing the same problem as me. A good example was when I've joined the bulk purchase for the HTC One X casing accessory organised by someone in LYN forum. That delay took very long and everybody was waiting, and in the end the organiser decided to cancel the bulk purchase and offer to refund to his respective customers. Ok then, from what you've said, it seems to me that you could offer a refund right? Please refund the modem price to me so that I could use that refunded money to buy another modem by myself. No troubles then as simcard replacement is easy right..Problem solved.

and why have you the only one who didn't received both stuff
(taaron): Why am I the only one didn't received the parcel? Do I have the answer for this? Pointless question! Supposedly you are in a way more appropriate position to answer that question. Don't ever ask me why! You should be responsible to investigate.

giving tracking number doesn't mean you will receive the item, it is posted to you and even without tracking number you will receive the sim and modem
(taaron) = What a statement! Ok, I agree with your statement, but I do think that statement is more appropriate for those who have not waited long enough. But for me? I have waited so long and you want me to wait the parcel to be sent to my address blindly? You try lah! You try to be a customer and see how long could you stand to wait..Bro, you told me that the parcel was sent using Post Express. Now u tell me how many days are off the expected delivery period. It is way off target. That is why I insisted to get the tracking number to investigate.

and for you I even worked hard to get a new modem to be sent to you and you don't think about that also
(taaron) = I appreciate your efforts. But now your statement made me think that I don't appreciate your hard efforts? Are you assuming my feelings? All this trouble is partly due to lack of communication.. Everytime it is me that I need to PM you asking on status status status, then you reply..Have you taken some efforts to inform me timely?

and why don't you go to maxis center to get new sim replacement ? I suspect you have the sim already with you , it does looks like that to me , why don't you just go to maxis center and get the sim at least so I can convince maxis that your postage is lost, they are saying it is not lost and you are saying it is lost
(taaron) = Haha..What a lame question! Suspect me hah..nice try..Why must I go through all these hassles if I already have the sim? So are you going to suspect me next that I also have the modem? Go figure it out. Another contradicting statement from you, NOW YOU TELL ME MAXIS SAID THE ITEM IS NOT LOST??!!! nice try again.. Before you tell me that, go refer to your PM on Oct 18, please check what you have written to me. Another thing is you blamed that I am saying it is lost? How realistic is that? Since when I said is lost? Get some solid PROOF to everyone here that I have said that! The only thing that I always said is I HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE ITEM, i did not say lost. Try to differentiate that statement. I'm done now.

UPDATE as at 31/10/2012 - Simcard replacement had been done through Maxis center and modem cost refunded. Case SOLVED.

Myvi Alternator problem

taaron — Mon, 24 Oct 2011 18:59:51 +0800

I think my alternator is showing up failure symptoms, but still doing ok at the moment..I noticed that in these few days of driving, the light of the dashboard meter panel and HU sometimes together flicker on and off in a split second, but seems fine most of the time..there was 1 occasion in past few days, the same flicker happened which caused my audio actually stopped momentarily and the engine is very close to shutting down, but all recovered and back to normal stable condition after 1 or 2 second..

once back home, i checked the wirings.. Battery terminals are still tight, wirings connected to the terminals are also tight and not loose..alternator is still charging the battery at 14.2V, no problem, but this does not rule out the possibility of alternator failure as I suspect that my alternator may be only partially good and fault at other areas.

another symptom which raised my concern on the alternator failure, is the alternator whine on my ICE is much louder if compared to few months back..I had created another thread (Link to thread) on my alternator whine problem few mths back, some of u may have known my problem last time..my problem was not solved yet since then, but I have masked the whine by lowering the amp gain till to the point that it is barely noticeable..from that day until today, my amp gains are still at very low level, but recently the alternator whine is getting more noticeable.. another thing is i felt the SPL (sound pressure level) of my ICE have been reduced by a tiny bit, not sure if my mind is playing tricks or not..usually i play at HU volume 24 (out of 35), but these few days I increase it to at least 25 or 26..

any opinion on my above comments?

BTW, any myvi owners here changed their alternator before? What's the price of original Perodua alternator (Denso)? How is the performance of other aftermarket myvi alternator such as Bosch and APM? any other brand? have u guys heard of MSD racing alternator (was recommended by my ICE installer last time)??

Alternator whine

taaron — Tue, 31 May 2011 22:12:35 +0800

Dear ICErs,

I've just discovered that my system has alternator whine problem, not really serious but noticeable if my volumes are low, while at high volume you won't know there is alternator whine because loudness of the song cover up it.

Previously, there is no alternator whine with my amps gain at 9 o'clock, but until recently i slightly raise the gains to 11 o'clock and there it goes the alternator whine. After that, I turn down the gains to my previous settings, no alternator whine. The alternator whine is only slightly noticeable if i raise the RPM during my ICE is on. The pitch will be higher based on increasing the RPM. Increasing HU volume will not affect the loudness of the alternator whine.

I tried troubleshooting, the 1st thing i noticed is if I turn OFF my HU, no alternator whine. Turning ON my HU, alternator whine comes back. 2nd step, I removed all RCA cables from my amplifier, no alternator whine, is it safe to say that the fault is not on the amplifier side? Now what's left yet to be tested is the RCA cables and HU, will only check out with my installer at a later time.

Any tips to share with me in helping out to solve this problem?

Custom built High-Output alternators

taaron — Thu, 31 Mar 2011 01:56:29 +0800

I recently google on custom built HO alternators, as I believed it is hard to find aftermarket HO alternator or even NONE for some car models. Anyone heard of custom built HO alternators from Excessive Amperage, Iraggi, Stinger (made by Wrangler) and Ohio Generator? I made enquiries with them through email, 1 of them could build a 180A for my Myvi, rest of them haven't replied.

Any members ever custom build a HO alternator with them or from other sources? Reliability issues?

Anyway, I have another question to ask..is the voltage regulator built internally inside the OEM alternator, or external separate? Heard that they could set up an external adjustable voltage regulator (12-20 volts) for an added cost. Is this good?

Capsim

taaron — Wed, 14 Jan 2009 02:07:46 +0800

I am currently taking business capstone for my final sem in uni. Just wondering if anyone out there have experience on business capstone simulation. It is something like u start a company in the simulation, u are given few years time to complete the whole simulation. In the simulation, every round (1 round = 1 year in simulation) u have to make decision for your company on R&D, Marketing, Production, Human Resource and Finance. This simulation is from w w w . c a p s i m . c o m
