WTH is Proton Doing?

jcmf — Sun, 17 May 2009 02:28:56 +0800

There is no doubt that Proton is in deep sh@t.

Take the Persona. Why would they force fit customers to buy the medium & hi lines with an over priced navigation system they claim is worth about $1,900.

I can buy a better product from Courts Mammoth about $400.

My friend in Proton Customer Service told me that internal politics from top managment force customers to buy it with this overpriced mynavi.

There was also an iternal survey conducted where about 7 out of 10 people were more concerned with vehicle security and chose Captor over the Mynavi. Why then was this internal report quashed and Proton continued to supply mynavi?

If Proton can buy the mynavi from the supplier at about $400 wit map, I wonder who pockets the change? Hmmm....

The new Exora MPV is also supposed to be "B-Smart" enabled. This company has no ISO certificstion, snd only a trading company. How can Proton bypass all factory testing and make it compulsory to be bought at the showrooms? St the last minute, it was found if they installed B Smart GPs it would cost $1900++ and $50 per month, and after one week without engine turned on - the car battery will die. I would not be surprised if no one even bought Exora with the B Smart GPS.

I sincerely hope that the Government and NCA investigate Proton management for any shady dealings.

Digi Overbillings

jcmf — Sun, 17 May 2009 02:07:37 +0800

I would like to share wit you all the terrible Digi overbillings that my company has seen

Free Calls Under Same Group (CUG)

Digi has repeatedly failed to tag voice lines under the same group to be free.
Therefore you are overcharged.

Digi has massive problems with its GPRS billings.

GPRS Usage
Ideally Digi GPRS must never exceed $149. If they charge more than this (excluing SMS or roaming) then Digi is overbilling you

2MB Plan
Under the $6 packege data only, you are allowed 2MB per month without contract.
I have many cases where I exceed the 2MB usage and use 5-6MB, but Digi charges me $140++

8MB Plan
The same goes for the 8MB plan $22

Digi does not act on the letters to upgrade,terminate etc the lines when you request it
For example, you ask 20 lines to be upgraded.
Digi upgrades only 15 lines and forget the rest.
Digi then bills you for the 5 lines hey forgot to upgrade abd charge you for their mistakes

My advise to all consumers and MNCs - check your Digi bills. You will find many mistakes.

Refer this matter to the Digi CEO johan@digi.com.my

And complain to MCMC and talk to your lawyers.

I am sick and tired of Digi incompetence.
