M1 is a bad company

M1 is a very bad company who does not teach their employees properly and educates them on the wrong things, which causes them to give wrong information to customers and does not even help them to solve their issue. Their chat bot also does not freaking work at all, every time i type, "Chat with Agent" it just prompts me to call 1627, and when i call 1627, none of the words that i say will even lead me to any help at all. The issue was, i needed a multisim for my line, and when i went down to the store personally, i asked if i could get a multisim for my line, and since the line was under my fathers name, they said they needed him to come down in person to verify his identity, which i thought was reasonable, so i did not dispute. I even asked them if i was required to be present or show the device that i wanted for the multisim, and he said no, so i just went home and my father went to the store in person a couple hours later, only to be sent off stating that my presence was needed in order to get the multisim, and told my father that he could not get it. So whats wrong with M1? why are they giving conflicting instructions across employees, and making us waste our time? and i needed the sim card so that i could get data. And whats worse is, they now disabled my orginal sim card line so now i have no data on my original sim card, how can M1 be so incompetent?

Customer service

Today 11.01.2023 @ 2.10pm went to Tampines Mall to renew my contract telco M1 was helped by a guy called Wai Keong he was nice to explain everything and after some discussion with my sister after 5 -10 mins want to renew and he was not on his seat so I check around the staffs said he might be going to the toilet therefore waited for him. He returned after 10 mins and I told him could I renew and his answered was he is going for lunch asked me to look for another , this to me was bad as I had waited for him and since he is handicap but he just rejected serving just going for lunch. The front guy said I will get you a queue number I am fine but I was waiting for the Queue to be called but looks like 2 staffs were doing nothing one looking at her nails so I think enough is enough I told the guy I will go to another branch . M1 kindly look into your Branch in Tampines no customers and your staffs attitude of serving is not there. I am really disappointed will go to Bugis. Been a M1 customer for many years but am really upset to see this kind of serving attitudes.

Blocking an unauthorised number

I have been receiving repeatedly messages from +44 7781 470659 which is not a number in my contact list. The message asks for me to activate a 2-step verification on my Sony Entertainment Network account which I don't have in the first place. Is there any way I can block this number?

Regards

Hotline 1627 is eating all my talk time

I was deeply surprised that my talk time shooted up by 140 mins jus over the past 3 days. I remember that i was calling 1627 using my m1 numbers.
They charged every duration even their hotline is always busy and i had wait 20.mins or longer to reach cust officer and during redirect call between their department.

This is too.much.. not customer oriented.. we call because we need help.

I will.port in to Singtel or Starhub when.my contract end this Aug2020.

Stressful to go to M1 shop to fill in form during COVID19 circuit breaker

My elderly father's broadband plan expires in mid-May. He has received approval from CDAC that he would continue to receive broadband with subsidy (amount lesser) from M1 after current plan expires. My father or authorized person has to go to M1 shop to fill in form and submit the letter from CDAC.

During this stressful COVID 19 circuit breaker, we are advised to reduce movement. I called M1 hotline to request for alternative way to proceed with new broadband plan for my father, for example online or post. M1 Insists we go to shop. Products can be purchased online and delivery made. But form processing cannot be done online in this digital age. My father and his tenant need WiFi connection everyday, more so during this circuit breaker where people work from home and socialisation with me and other family members through online means is essential.

Please help. It is stressful to go to a shopping mall and walk into M1 shop to fill in form and complete whatever process. Every trip outside home is exposure to people and therefore risk to COVID19. It creates anxiety. With the date of date of expiry drawing near and circuit breaker extended, it is stressful to go out besides buying food for our families. My husband is busy working from home. My father is elderly. I have to take care of children at home. It is stressful to go to M1 shop, more so that the shop is beyond my neighborhood

Calling 1627 no longer free

I have been using M1 since 2010. Calling 1627 used to be toll free when using my mobile phone but now is chargeable. This is very unfair to M1 subscribers or customers especially when they need help calling M1.

Calling 1627 no longer free

Mobile data usage

My billing cycle starts on 14th of every month. In my phone plan, I have 7GB worth of data I can use every month. To my surprise, for this month, I have consumed 120% of my mobile data within two days despite me checking my apps and my wireless settings. At 1539 today, I received a sms informing me that I have consumed 75% of my data. Within 5 min, another sms says I have consumed 90%. Not to mentioned, by 6pm, another sms came out and said I have fully consumed my data. All these happen while i am in a meeting, did not use phone. As I am typing this complaint at 820pm, I am already at 120% of my data plan. I called 1627, the customer call Centre lady can only run through the checklist with me - have u done this or that. ( Btw, she mixed up my iPhone to an android phone. ) I asked her what can she proposed, she said from her side, there’s nothing wrong with the telco nor the line, and that I will have to pay for the additional data I consumed. She suggested another option, which is to get me upsize my data plan so that I can continue using it or I just turned off my mobile plan. Is this the best solution M1 can offer to me? I have told her I will not pay for that additional data and she said I will still be billed anyway!!!!
To think that I have started with M1 since it first started in Singapore, this kind of customer service is a huge disappointment !!!! I will definitely now look at alternatives.

Incompentent Service by Xavier x1623

20 Aug - called 1623 to enquire about Note 9 as I received the link for Note 9. As it has both new and re-contract option with the phone price $598 - I finally managed to speak to a lady after 3 fruitless days to dial in to enquire. I need to know if I re-contract - is this the price I should pay based on my plan and for re-contract purposes!!
The lady explained that I'm eligible for re-contract on 21 Aug without having to pay extra $250 and to click for re-contract. She checked and advised that my phone price will be $478 with 512GB free upgrade and my plan is under MAX PLAN!!!

21 Aug - I called 1623 & spoke to Jacey (as I was on my way to JB) to enquire because I couldn't find Max Plan!! He told me he will check as he also cant find the option Max Plan.

23 Aug - I spoke to Jacey again. He advised that the order has been closed on 21 Aug at 5pm. As M1 rep - he doesn't know the closing date?? and told me that I have to downgrade my plan but pay higher for the phone!
I requested to speak to the Manager and Xavier called.
And he told me the same crap story! and start to shift the blame to the lady whom I spoke to on 20 Aug for not reading instructions properly! I cant believe working in the same company - the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing and slapping each other face!! And best - he told me he will check and revert BACK ON MONDAY!!!!
AM I AT HIS MERCY! HE"S THE ONLY PERSON THAT CAN MAKE DECISION AND THE WHOLE WORLD HAS TO WAIT FOR HIM TO COME BACK ON MONDAY???
HE HAS NO SENSE OF URGENCY! DOES HIS ATTITUDE WARRANTS HIM TO BEHAVE LIKE A MANAGER??

I WANT THE SENIOR MANAGER TO CALL ME BACK TODAY BEFORE I CANCEL ALL MY 5 LINES AND I WILL GO TO STARHUB SINCE WE ARE GIVEN CORPORATE ACCOUNT! I HAVE BEEN M1 FOR A LONG TIME AND IF M1 DOESNT VALUE ME AS A CUSTOMER WHY SHOULD I STILL SUPPORT M1 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Services

I’m been with M1 since 2009 and using their service for so long, but then after almost 10 years they fall me because of their services, firstly I registered to IDD to calling overseas with a local price, which is very good deal to me, but after using this for almost 10 years then I’m really shocked when received the bill come up to $500, I called their customer service regarding about this case, they blamed because I wasn’t dial 021 (IDD code), sound like I using this service for first day, and I even tried to clarify with them, but no one really can help me to explain this, this is really made me pissed off.

Billing and Services

This is first time happened to me, I was registered for IDD which is call to over with the cheaper price, and I have been use it for almost 10 years, but then this month when I receive my bill, it was totally shoot up to almost $500 bucks, and then when I call customer service regarding about this matter, they explained because of I FORGOT TO DIAL A IDD CODE, so they means for totally 10 years round this month then I forget to dial this? It’s very ridiculous sound to me, I really need an explanation about this or else I will end the contract even I been loyalty to M1 for so long.

Can't receive call and unable to hear calls

Dear sir/Mdm

I've checked with m1 shop twice and called m1 hotline 4 times about this issue. I've tried a few suggestions.

My homeline was confirmed to have even ported successfully from SingTel to m1 since 19 th 2 pm.

Prior to this matter, my home line is perfectly fine.

On 19 th June, I couldn't use the home line at all. Ok, I think m1 requires sometimes to port the line.

On 20th June, I was able to make calls using the homeline. But I can't hear calls or receive calls. When anybody tried to call ( they shared), there's this engaged tone, and a message " invalid number or the number is not in use" . 1 person managed to get through and my homeline rang, using the Internet digital line to call.

Finally the 4th m1 person (hotline) , said he'll email to the Technicians, to check; and it's going to take a few days to a week.
It's way too Long to wait for a week.

Please resolve this issue as soon as possible.

Can't Receive or hear calls from home phone

Dear sir/madam ,

Since 2 days ago, I am unable to receive and hear phone ringing , from my home phone. I had checked with m1 shop about it twice; I called m1 4times, and tried different suggestions each offered. I was told the home line has been ported from SingTel to m1 successfully, since 2pm yesterday.

I can make calls using the home line, but nobody can call in. We also received the msg invalid number or number not in use when we tried to all. One person managed to get through only using an Internet digital line.

My phone receiver is working very well all along. Finally, I was told it takes a few days to a week for the Technicians to check. It's way too Long. Please resolve this issue asap.

Billing

Billing address: 162 yishun street 11 #03-280 (760162)
Date of Birth: 19 March 1942
Bill Plan for this line: $45
Bill payment method: Using M1 apps payment.
Comments: I have been a M1 user for quite a long period and currently i am only owing an amount of $123 and it's combined for 2months plus bill which I think it shouldn't be distrupted and as I agree to make the min amount of $20 by today 24feb as being told by M1 officer to do so. But I just called M1 to ask for an arrangement that I'll be making the amount of $50 by 4th March which is one week later issue and I don't understand why M1 can't even do this arrangement for customers when I always make payment and it's not that extreme high amount that I'm owing! Therefore, I hope M1 can arrange this billing issue for me thanks! I do not wish my line to be distrupted.
