I think it's for the standby power connection inside the toilet. Just above the sink, you can see an electrical wire, think it can be used should you want to put a power point inside the toilet. -

Initially, same thing they told us. But since ours was transfer and under a plan, we told starhub to pause the plan and stop billing us. Next day our block status became active, and starhub told us that they will send someone to install the cable in a week time... can't wait during that time, went outside and plug the cable ourselves. -

yes, can use that one. HDB gave us 1 coaxial to coaxial cable. The rest are coaxial to RCA cable. -

You can open your ET. Besides the electric meter, and singtel box, there's another box. Open it, you can see(for 2 units)12 coaxial cable connected to a 4 x (3 in 1 splitter). The splitter parent are connected to the HDB antenna by default. If you have extra coaxial cable, you can connect the parent to the starhub points inside. There's a diagram on the door that tells which unit own which point. Also there are cable labels, but sometimes those installers don't care about labels, so it can be inaccurate. I'll take photo and post it tomorrow. Alternatively, can call starhub, but they will charge $30 to do it for you. -

Most of the blocks, except 25B are already starhub activated. http://www.starhub.com/cabling/cabling_search.jsp You can call starhub connect the line inside your ET. There's a cable junction there, by default its connected to HDB antenna, but there are points ready for starhub. -

We also had a nightmare experience with Supreme People. Almost got a heart attack with all the stress and frustrations talking to Supreme workers and managers. 1. During the date of installation, they said cannot send people down because they have an exhibition and they need to allocate resource to set it up <- So exhibition is more important than customer? 2. After convincing them of the urgency of the situation, they sent 2 guys, arrived about 6PM and did everything faster than a movie show. In just around 2 hours, they did the whole house (1 living room, 3 bedroom). They just cut anyhow and hammer here, hammer there. 3. Rush, rush, hammer here, hammer there. Result = Main gate tile was chipped off, curved gap on skirting, a lot of the lower wall part was was heavily scratched. Hmm... I noticed they have problem with shapes, if a skirting cannot fit, they will hammer it into submission... Hello Supreme guys... if it doesn't fit, it doesn't fit, using mr. hammer won't make the problem go away, need to take time to saw a proper piece to fit the thing. 4. They will not use all Supreme brand. Half of our floor, they used a brand with an "Owl" logo, can't really remember the name, think it was "Smart" floor. 5. After a more thorough inspection, we noticed that mr. hammer also chipped of some of the Supreme floor itself... how can supreme give lifetime warranty, when during installation, they already damaged their own product? 6. Supreme told our screeding contractor the height of the floor screed. Result = room doors cannot close. Supreme needs to remove our doors and trim it. I don't know what Supreme universe is exist on, they have their own interpretation of shapes, measurements and customer service. Talking about measurement, they measure the floor as the entire unit floor area... I didn't see any laminate flooring on the kitchen and bathroom, what's with the 85sqm quotation? If we didn't need the place ASAP, will need to take time to contest all the measurement. 7. After removing the door, they damaged the screw of the 2 room door hinges... grrrrr, that's why we heard a lot of hammering on the doors during mounting.... Haiz... Please Supreme, a screw driver is for a screw, and a hammer is for a nail. And please after you "screw" the thing, don't tell us to blame HDB... Very tired and angry of them already... need to go doctor and ask for calming medications. 8. After the door incident, made a door inspection. I think they are unhappy with the colour of our door frame... they wrote, using a BALLPEN, Big "A", "B" and "C" on the door frames... Supreme, Supreme, if you are going to treat our door frame as a document label, please use pencil, contractors use it, it's standard practice. 9.They sent all different contractors, so they spent a lot of time blaming each other for the chipping, graffiti, etc... They really have a resource management and work quality assurance issue. 10. Floor is very uneven, they never even bother to put a double foam to those uneven area. Hmm... Maybe Supreme needs to adopt a new company slogan from one of those classic movies... "Frankly our dear customers, we don't give a ****".... hehehe So my dear neighbors, Should you not want to disrupt you harmonious aura... you know where "not" to sign. -

Hi nemo, didn't make any report, main wood door was still locked and no items were missing. now more cautious and left my handphone to take snapshot of any motion movement and mms the image. btw, one of the supreme people trim our door and locked it from the inside... then we call locksmith to unlock it and it only took like a minute to unlock the door !! locksmith said that our locks are expensive type but can easily be spoilt -
