alamak 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2010 (edited) finally moved in last friday. everything is done up in time. even the tempered glass backing and door are up. thanks to my contractor for his help to push. all the touch up and rectification are done. maybe 1 more round of painting after CNY. still in the process of unpacking and buying small small items for daily use. also missing a computer, going to sls this friday to buy the parts and assemble. but had a very bad encounter with singtel. called way back in Jan for them to relocate my mio internet and tv to my new house number and maintain my parent's number. they terminate my parent's number twice during the process. then on monday, they terminated my number. till today only got back my phone, internet and mio tv still pending. WTF is singtel doing, such a simple task of relocating and they cock it up. cannot even follow simple instructions and their helpline is crap. even dare to hang up my call and show me attitude. going to write in a complain letter after all is done. talk to them nicely, they take their own sweet time. only when i flare up then they get things done. will post more pics when i am more settled in. move house is really tiring. my contractor is Edmund from DX Interior. Will write a review sometime later. Overall quite happy with his work. Edited February 10, 2010 by alamak Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
