Samsung Z Flip 6 Warranty & Where to Sell?

jhua — Sun, 08 Sep 2024 23:59:00 +0800

Hi all! Can I ask how does Samsung warranty works? Is it international like Apple or depends on the country purchased?

My wife received a gift from her company overseas which is a Z Flip 6 512GB Peach. However, she does not know where was it purchased from or what region is it.

She plans on selling it as she is an iPhone user. But we don’t know how and how much to sell the set for. Any advice on warranty conditions of non-Malaysia purchased set and a reasonable price to sell for this and sealed set?

Melting Gold jewellery to redesign other jewellery

Hi all, have several gold (916) necklaces and rings which have rarely been used due to old design or size.

Is it common to have your old jewellery melted and redesigned? Or do you have any suggestions?

Accor Plus Members

Hi all, received a call from an agent selling me an Accor Plus membership. They got my number from my last stay at Novotel KL last month.

Initially had doubts so the agent sent me an email and I checked from the Live chat in the official site to verify if the email is legit.

They required my credit card no and expiry date and after a few hours. I received a notification of an RM760 charge to ACCOR PLUS-2D. I then received emails from Accor about my membership details and account creation. So I guess I’m safe?

The agent told me that I get 3 nights complimentary stay on any Accor hotels in Asia, but I’m still not sure how to redeem it. Can’t find it in my account too. Any suggestions?

Also, what do you all think of this membership? Appreciate any advice on how we can maximise the full benefit of the membership!

Thank you!

Preauricular Sinus - Ear Pit - Hole near ear

jhua — Mon, 07 Nov 2022 02:45:15 +0800

Hi all, have anyone undergone a surgery to remove and seal a preauricular sinus aka ear pit before? Care to share your experience and cost?

Been living with it for my entire life. It doesn’t get infected much often but the stagnant fluid will smell bad and it’s quite embarrassing.

Anyone ever went for surgery and used the medical card coverage?

Kiara 1888 @ Kiara 3

jhua — Wed, 10 Aug 2022 00:30:19 +0800

Hi all, tried searching everything related to Kiara 1888 on the forum and also on several property sites but a lot of them are very outdated and old topics.

What do you all think about buying a subsale unit in this property? Looking to rent it out for a few years and possibly staying in the future.

I know the building has been completed for more than 10 years ago. Location seems good and low density.

Any residents or tenants who have any experience they can share about this condo? Would appreciate any feedback!

Thank you.

Super Basic Digi Plan Recommendation

jhua — Wed, 20 Jun 2018 11:48:46 +0800

Hi guys, Seeking your kind suggestions on a basic postpaid plan from Digi to maintain my number with minimum data and promos to use during my trips back to Malaysia. I tried looking at the list of plans Digi offers on their site but could not find any that fits me.

I am currently based overseas and do not return back to Malaysia frequently, even if I do, I will only stay in Malaysia for a week or so. However, I'd like to maintain my phone number as I use it for some banking and administration purposes. Therefore, I do not need a plan which gives me a lot of internet quota or call minutes/ free texts etc.

I am currently subscribed to the DG Smart Plan 58. And I am under-utilising it as I am not always back home. However, I do enjoy using my Digi line while travelling for holidays with the Roaming Passes.

If you all know of any plan, please share here.

Thanks!

Driving from KL to Muar

jhua — Tue, 28 Nov 2017 17:53:21 +0800

Hi all, I will be arriving at KL next weekend and will be driving down to Muar for a wedding reception. I am from Sabah but have been based overseas for quite a few years and I am totally unfamiliar with the routes, tolls in Peninsular Malaysia.

I’d like to seek the advice of all the bros and sis here about driving down from KL to Muar. Thinking of stopping by Melaka as well. Hope you all can give me some idea or suggestions with the following questions:

1. Which highway do I take?
2. Which exit do I take to reach Muar?
3. Will I pass through tolls?
4. Do I need a TouchnGo card if there are a toll fees?

I will be renting a car to drive down and will definitely use Waze or Google Maps to navigate. Appreciate all the feedback and suggestions!

Also, if you can recommend any car rental agencies, preferably in KLIA 2, that would be the best too!
