New Scam

Published by suzette under All, Mumbles

Received a warning email from my cousin this morning, about a new way of cheating people. Thought of sharing it here.

In fact, my ex-colleague’s father received this call. My mother in law also received this call. So, I believe it is true.

Well, it starts with a phone call - upon answering it you will hear a recorded voice message stating that the call is from the high court and you have a case to attend there on so and so date/time. To find out what case you have, you are required to speak to the operator, so you will press the ‘9′ button.

The operator will ask for Continue Reading »

Isabel’s First Birthday

Published by suzette under All, Isabel

I have so many things wanted to write, but due to no web access, have to delay them, and lost the mood already…

Anyway, last Saturday was Isabel’s first birthday. I wanted to give Isabel the same treatment Ian received two years ago. But then, pity Isabel, everything turned out to be disappointing. I really feel very sorry for her, and I am also very upset/angry with everyone… yes, everyone…

I took leave on Friday, wanted to take her to take some studio photos, just like Ian did. Well, this one is her own fault. She is worse that Ian. Ian frowned his face all the time, but at least he didn’t cry and we still managed to take some good photos. But this Isabel… the moment we put her down, she looked frightened. And then, when the camera flashed, she was so scared that she screamed and cried. No way we could put her down again. Continue Reading »

Burger King Sales (1 Day)

Published by suzette under All, Mumbles

Not sure this also happens in other outlets on other days…

Today from 12 noon to 8pm at Burger King Sri Hartamas, they are having this great promo: for RM10 nett there is one burger (Whopper or Grilled Chicken) + Chicken Tenders (3 pcs) + Onion Rings + Mango Drink.

As it is raining today and I was outside, on my way back to the office I’ve decided to use the drive-in service. Naturally I bought that set on offer. :P

Guess I fall into that promo trick. ;)

Telekom/Streamyx Down

Published by suzette under All, Mumbles

It was frustrating that my house’s phone line was down for the past few weeks. It wasn’t hurting me badly until recently when I was on leave on Friday.

I had so much that I wanted to blog about, but being unable to access the web upsets me! Lodged complaints to Telekom also no use. They only said they will attend/fix it asap - but ‘asap’ is just the word they use - without committing any day/time!

Until now, it is still not fixed. Paying monthly fee for my Streamyx and phoneline, not receiving the services that I am entitled to. :(

Another Hotel Incident

Published by suzette under All, Traveling

Can’t believe this is happening to me again!

I had a busy weekend traveling and working in China from city to city. This morning, I flew from Shanghai to Guangzhou with a male colleague from Beijing. Arrived at the hotel, found out they were over booked, and they let us shared a room. Well, not really that to be exact. They let us share a two-room suite. Believe that or not?

They were not honest at first (sound so similar to the previous Pakistan case). They took our credit card, swiped, made us signed the registration… and then we noticed the price quoted there was different from the confirmation email. Upon checking, only we found out they put us in a two-room suite.

In our culture, it is just not right to put a male and a Continue Reading »
