Please recommend me 1-stop-solution for home reno

pherac — Sat, 13 Mar 2021 19:21:17 +0800

Hi guys

First home buyer here. I am probably getting the keys to my condo end of this month, so I am looking for contacts of interior design or contractor company that provides 1 stop solution where they provide the services below:
- Door relocation (to maximize built in wardrobe space)
- Built-in wardrobe
- half wall half glass partition for my study room
- AC relocation & AC installation
- Lights & ceiling fans installation (including placement of the lights & ceiling fans)
- Power points installation

I roughly know how I want the design to be for my unit. I would just need advice on how to maximize the space utilisation (probably squeeze in some more storage without looking packed?) and advice on lighting & ceiling fan placements and choices. Most importantly, I would need someone to coordinate the project to ensure everything is completed on time.

Do you guys have anyone good to recommend?

Lousy poslaju and pos ekspress

pherac — Thu, 21 Mar 2013 17:37:23 +0800

Since I always buy things from lowyat forum, I'm pretty dependent on the postal service, especially poslaju and pos ekspress. However, recently the post office in charge of my area has failed to deliver the parcel every single time.

What is really frustrating is :
1. Tracking info shows the postman attempted delivery at a certain tine but the recipient wasn't at home to receive it.
Not true because I was home everytime at the time of delivery. My door is always wide open so it's impossible i won't hear it if someone knocks on the door. McD and Domino's have always successfully delivered their food to me.

2. There's no sorry note left at my door as a sign that the postman has actually been here.

Every single time I have to go to the post office myself to collect the item. Is this what I'm paying for? Last time I called pos Malaysia customer service and made a complaint about this but the issue recurs.

Any ida how I can make the respective post office more responsible on delivering our items?

Roommate or housemate issues

pherac — Wed, 20 Feb 2013 16:48:19 +0800

Currently have a chinese from x country moving in to our unit.
We had some problems with her because she always thinks she's right no matter how and what we tell her. She denies a lot of things she's done and she thinks her money can solve every single problem.

Does anyone else have any roommate or housemate issues? Come share.

Snatch Theft

pherac — Sat, 05 Jan 2013 10:41:20 +0800

Just got my handbag snatched at Dataran 3 2 at Section 17 PJ. I was on my motorbike when it happened. As the road was very bad, I was riding very slowly. As I was making my turn into the Dataran 3 2, I noticed a car (old Honda.. car plate MAT 1126) was coming very near at me. Initially I thought it was an accident (I'm quite accident prone) so I stopped immediately. The driver quickly reached his hand out of his window and snatched my handbag (which was in the motorcycle's basket). The car sped off, ran a red light and took the turning into Jalan Semangat ... That's the last view I saw of it.

Everything happened so fast.. I didn't even get to see the snatcher's hand... not to mention his race and face....

I had Rm90 cash in my COACH purse (A few days old only... Christmas present..worth 250 USD)... Also lost my White Samsung Galaxy Nexus which I bought 2 months ago ....

After the incident, I quickly went to the police station PJ branch... Sat at the counter .. but nobody bothered to talk to me.. there were at least one malay guy and 2 malay girls there... The guy was taking police report but the the girls were just occassionally making some unimportant calls and talking to each other. I had to approach each one of them to have them take my police report. Throughout the whole session, the policemen were kidding with each other, laughing here and there. It's a bit shocking.. .it's okay if they don't show any compassion... at least try to act professional... After all, we do pay tax ... that contributes their salary ..

Don't know why I'm writing this.. just feel like sharing...

faulty ram slot

pherac — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 16:22:08 +0800

my toshiba L310 wouldn't even boot up two days ago so I sent it to toshiba company since it's still under warranty. Later, I got a call from their technician saying they found a liquid stain on my mobo, so they wouldn't be able to claim the warranty for me. (I spilled some drink on my keyboard with protector on it a year ago, so I don't think it's due to liquid damage) He also said that he found out the 2nd ram slot was faulty so he took out the second ram and my laptop would finally boot now but he's not sure how long my laptop could stay in good condition. Due to his not very good communication skills, some of my questions were not answered.

I just want to know whether the faulty ram slot is gonna affect my motherboard even with the ram taken out from it already and how much it will affect my motherboard. Cause I'm still deciding whether or not I should have it repaired or replaced by a new mobo which will cost around rm850.
