“I had never
lost my Identification card and I do not even know where is Tawas Baru, Ipoh (the
place where the fixed line was applied), and I was shocked when Telekom
Malaysia Berhad send a letter to me informing that I owe them that amount of
money. I felt very distress when I keep on receiving calls and letters asking
me to clear the debt and they even want to charge me in the court if I am
unable to pay them” Yong claimed. “I had made a police report in March 07, 2008 and gave it to Telekom
Malaysia Berhad. I thought that everything was settled until I receive a lot of
calls from few debt collectors. The latest I received those calls was during
October. ” he added.
“This is not the
first time we receive such complaints. Moreover what is the point of hiring
until 6 companies to collect debt from Yong” Dato’ Theng Book
(Head of MCA Selangor Public Services & Complaint Department) said. “Why Telekom Malaysia Berhad wait until such
an high amount then only send letter to Yong?” Dato’ Theng questioned. He will discuss with Telekom Malaysia Berhad
regarding this matter.
