Poor MaxOnline Service
I am writing in to complain about the extremely lackluster performance of your 7.2Mbps plan that was promised.

Your promotional campaign advertised a rate of 7.2Mbps and the rates that i experience is a fraction of that. And i'm not talking as if i am residing in a distant part of Singapore. I am in the heartlands of Tampines where such service should be exceptional. I have made numerous calls and trips to your service center only to have your "technicians" give me the same advice over and over again.
I experienced the same issue when i had the plan for 2Mbps and i even went to the extent of multiple SIM card changes and even a device change.
I have had this service for a few months and prior to that i had the 2Mbps service for 2 years. The lack of delivery on your advertisements and poor customer service is atrocious. And i am a very loyal and firm supporter of your company.

Billing for GPRS services not utilized
hi all,

i've set up a group in facebook to gather petitions against starhub for their overbilling charges, lack of liability to their consumers, not responsible in taking care of their customers when help is required.


Please feel free to join the group to air your grieves or share your situation or pls help to spread the word to as many people as you can who faces the same issues with starhub.

You're also welcome to join us in petitioning even if you do not have issues with starhub. Please feel free to browse through the group comments and the issues we face..

All contents in this group will be consolidated into a petition to IDA against starhub or any other telcos in hope they will speed the process in implementing neccessary rulings in place that will protect consumers like us against corporations like starhub who behave like a legal "Ah Long and Associates".

a thousand whispers gathered will generate a roar of discontent even IDA cannot ignore..

THEY CLAIM THEY ONLY SEND REMINDERS IF NEVER PAY FOR 2 MONTHS! BUT THE FUNNY THING I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN MAKING PAYMENT AND SUDDENLY IN NOV I RECEIVE LETTER SAYING LAPSE FOR 2 MONTHS! THEN IN SEP THEY NEVER SEND ME DETAILS OF ANY OUTSTANDING. THEY EXPECT ME TO CHECK WITH MY BANK BUT THEN TO ISSUE STATEMENTS I HAVE TO PAY TO MY BANK! PAY TO SHOW THAT I HAVE PAID! RIDICULOUS!

Failure to rectify activation of Sim Card
I visited Tampines Mall Starhub Customer Service Centre Today at 11:45am on 21 nov' 10 to collect my new SIM card after reporting the lost of phone. A chinese girl with pony tail attended to me, she gave me a new SIM card and told me that my SIM card will be activated within 6 hrs.

To my surprise, after 6 hour my SIM card has not been activated. Immediately, I called the call centre and was attended by a lady. She responded this, "IN PROCESSING" and assured me that by 7pm it should be activated. So i checked my phone at 8.30pm and, my sim card has not been activate AGAIN! I called the call centre again and was attended by a male staff who told me that the current new sim card serial number is not found in the system!!! He verbally re-confirmed with me a new serial number and instructed that i have to wait for ANOTHER 2 hour for the activation.

UNTIL NOW, 4:00pm, my sim card is not activated.

This is atrocious and horrifying! I do not have any telecommunication service for the past 28 hours! I am disappointed with your service efficiency and effectiveness! Starhub should do a follow up over the phone to ensure customer sim card has been activated OR to update the client the progress of the activation if it should take longer than expected! This has caused a great inconvenience to me! All Starhub customer expect professionalism from Starhub Service but from this incident, i realize Starhub service is inefficient and unreliable. Whether is this a human or system error, THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN AT ALL! Even after so many hours of waiting, Starhub failed to rectify my problem!

Unethical Internet Service provider
I would like to voice my unpleasant encounter with Starhub’s business etiquette on their billing system. In December 2009, I contacted Starthub and spoke to Tommy Tang, the Billing Manager with regards to an additional month billing imposed on my bill. I have been billed not only for the month of utilization but the following month .I raised my concern and Tommy Tang has suggested of solving this by deferring payment as there is another 15 days of grace after the bill’s indicated date. This would mean I will not have to pay as per bill indication date but before the 15 days of grace is over. He further assured me that he will indicate a note so as a written reminder will not be imposed should the payment is not paid by the billing date.
Things do not seem to occur as suggested. I have been receiving monthly reminders till today and with most often these reminder bills have been double charged despite making my payment before the end of the 15 days of grace period. This has been extremely contradicting, as Starhub, the initiator of a solution is not keeping up to their commitment. Should starthub does not wish to honour a suggestion of their own, they should not have made any unfulfilled suggestion in the first instance.
Last month, as the result of double billing, I received an arrogant letter from Starhub with headline enlarged, bold and capitalised urging me to resolve my credit card payment. This letter is outright spiteful and is stepping beyond boundaries, similarly liken to the threats in the reminders received of imposing additional charges for reconnection fee.
I have been contacting Starhub for the past two weekends but only finally able to speak to a billing representative who has not been helpful but putting me on hold without any concrete solution at the end of the call. I have demanded a solution with a higher authority but was informed there was no one to assist me. This is truly outrages and unprofessional for such a company that do not handle a customer’s concern seriously. I was left more confused and frustrated as I have endured the last few months of endless reminders and double billing that led to an incident with the credit card company. I have engaged starhub’s service for the last 2 years and since have been a loyal and dutiful paymaster. With these reminders received now, has reconfigured me as a poor paymaster.
There is not a point further to discuss with starthub as they are not keen to resolve a problem, act upon consumers calls professionally and swiftly nor has customer’s interest at heart and worst of all, do not deliver the action they have suggested.
With the above, I would like to share my tales of woe and seek you advise on a possible option or the necessary course of action as I am still in a contract with this company for another year and I would no longer wish to be further manipulated by their deceptive lies and extremely degrading services.
Victimised Consumer.

Cheat
StarHub publish in the website stating when you signup for flexisurf service, you will be able to play the game MapleStory. http://www.starhub.com/broadband/athome/maxonlineflexisurf.html
I was cheated by them, brought a modem and found out that is not true, Called them but guess what, they will work on it, but for about 1 month nothing came back.

Extremely POOR & BAD services!
I called starhub on 24/12/09 for line termination as I've signed up for a new line. According to the customer service officer, the line would be terminate within 3 days. But, after 3 days, the line was still working without any termination.<br />
<br />
3 months ago, my husband experienced similar problem when he called to request for line termination. He was told that the line would be terminate within 3 days, therefore he starts to use the new line one day after his call. Whilst, he was still billed for the following 2 month's subscription eventhought he had not use it at all! We called the service line again to clarify for the bill problem and was told that it was handled by the accounts dept. Despite our call and verification with their accounts dept, they insist to have the payment made no matter how!<br />
<br />
As worried the same thing would happen again, I called again to their serive line on 29/12/09 to clarify if they already take down my request and share with the officer my previous experience. However, the officer answered very unfriendly and insist it would not happen, then she told me sometime it might takes 5 days to terminate the line (*Which is totally different story from the first officer & my husband's case) and ensure it would be terminated latest by 30/12/09. As for the subscription charges, they would prorate it up till the date of my first request of termination which is on the 24th December.<br />
<br />
Today is already 31/12/09, the line is still not terminate. I wonder is it a technic for Starhub to have their EXTRA income towards those customers who wish to terminate their line with Starhub? I'd say, this is really an EXTREMELY POOR & BAD SERVICE!!!
