basically t-mobile phones come with the logo of t-mobile on the casing, and they have certain extra menus that are tailored to T-Mobile services (which can't be used here). no other difference...
in other words WATERSET
I suspect this promotion thing isn't an official one from DIgi, it's the shop that is having this promotion to cheat unknowing customers and they sell off their cheap watersets
it's easy to get hold of these sets... eg: ask ur fren who has a t-mobile t610 to report it lost, he gets another one for free, u bring it over, sell off for cheap, make money
better ask ur fren to go back to the shop and demand for an original set

gilthoniel,
u siao ah.... demand for a warranty set. u think u can get it for 1k? i don't think so.
guys,
ask sanj about his R520. last time digi have a very good promotion on this R520 with only RM300+ and register DIGI line. but turned up  service center will not entertain that as a warranty set. if any upgrade or faulty party. Authorise service center will not provide u any free service or claims of warranty. u have to pay in order for them to fix that for u.
it's not so call water set or not. DIGI paid the import tax as well. they bring in the phone themselve and not thru so it's sad that it's at ya own risk.
for some charges they will face will be like
1. upgrade firmware - RM50 per upgrade
2. check for faulty - RM50 each time
3. replacement of parts - depand on parts.
4. service center will not be responsible for any faulty due to any upgrade u requested. (90% will remain ok but 10% will face some problem) |

@ Fulat, i'm affriad u have wrong info regarding my R520m. My R520m warranty is NOT ONLY by DiGi, its ALSO by Ericsson. I got an unfilled ERICSSON warranty card and 1 year warranty by DiGi themselves. I have been to Ericcserve to upgrade my FW to the latest for R520m and they stampped the Ericsson Warranty card. I think the t-mobile one is a con case wan... DiGi don't do such things... It MUST be one of those "pariah" or "caplang" stalls u see in malls... My R520m was bought in a DiGi CENTRE... not some crappy booth ... 
Cheers,
~Sanjeev~

@fulat,
me not siao,.... just that as customer we should demand our rights. THe poor fella didn't even know, and wasn't informed... so it is his right to get things straight mah. it's all about consumer rights.
as for the R520m, sanj already explained. There's no way digi will bring in waterset/non-warranty sets la, it will only jeopordise their good name. So as i said, this T-Mobile unit is a con-job promotion in the name of DIgi.
why would they bring in units with another network's name stamped? not very good for business isn't it?  |

Its definitely a pariah stall or can i say stalls. Plenty of em at low yat. In fact, there's 1 with SE logo plastered all over the booth and they sell t mobile branded t610s at normal retail prices.

Hey why can't I access Malaysia thread in esato forums through my Z600? I am using DiGi post paid. It says please contact WAP service provider. Anyone can shed a light on this problem? FYI, I am able to surf other threads of esato, only the Malaysian thread cannot. WHY? 
How does the word "this message has been posted from a T60" appear below your post? Does it appear automatically? I used my P800 to post a reply. But there is no such message under the reply?

I'm in a dilemma here. Do I tell my friend that his T610 is an imported one and couldn't get the SE warranty and free upgrades? He seems sooo happy with it that I didn't want to spoil his fun. For some, ignorance is bliss. Besides, he is "one of the masses", who just want a "cool phone"...not like us the type that'll research first then ask in forums etc. So do I tell him, should I do the right thing?
@waja
i get that error sometimes too while browing esato on wap. As far as I know just try again later...sometimes only certain posts will give that error...so i just skip the post and it will work fine again...

guys,
P900 local original warranty are available in the market start on friday. u might be able to see some around some retail shop and don't surprise they told u is a local warranty set.
before u purchase, please consider the below issue.
1. check for local warranty card and sticker on phone.
2. check for any defrag. (currently no replacement unit available)
3. check the price before u purchase. due to so demanding of this phone. the price is comfirmed higher than recommended retail price.
good luck for all wanna be P900 User cheers~ |
