Celcom Axiata Internet Slowness

I've been using Celcom Service for so long that the useless that it is providing is the worst in it's history. I have been having "No Service" as the network signal so constantly that I took it positively and went to change my sim card but it's still the same. This is the worst service Celcom has offered to their long-time customers since the merge

Desired outcome: Fix your damn service and provide better service for your customers. 4G should be as fast as it used to be, not worst than it was.

Clients considering Celcom Axiata should delve into its customer service record to gauge compatibility with their expectations.

Celcom Axiata earns 91% level of Trustworthiness

Perfect Trust Endorsement: Celcom Axiata achives 91% ligitmacy per Complaints Board. Highly recommended, yet always stay vigilant.

We found clear and detailed contact information for Celcom Axiata. The company provides a physical address, 3 phone numbers, and 2 emails, as well as 4 social media accounts. This demonstrates a commitment to customer service and transparency, which is a positive sign for building trust with customers.

Celcom Axiata has claimed the domain name for celcom.com.my for a long time, which suggests that the website is established and has a history of being in operation. This is a positive sign, as it indicates that the website has been around for a while and may have a reputation to maintain.

Celcom.com.my has a valid SSL certificate, which indicates that the website is secure and trustworthy. Look for the padlock icon in the browser and the "https" prefix in the URL to confirm that the website is using SSL.

Several mixed reviews for Celcom Axiata have been found on various review sites. While some customers have had positive experiences with the company, others have reported issues with their products or customer service. It's important to read and consider a variety of reviews before making a decision to purchase from this website.

We looked up Celcom Axiata and found that the website is receiving a high amount of traffic. This could be a sign of a popular and trustworthy website, but it is still important to exercise caution and verify the legitimacy of the site before sharing any personal or financial information

However ComplaintsBoard has detected that:

  • While Celcom Axiata has a high level of trust, our investigation has revealed that the company's complaint resolution process is inadequate and ineffective. As a result, only 14% of 214 complaints are resolved. The support team may have poor customer service skills, lack of training, or not be well-equipped to handle customer complaints.
  • There was some difficulty in evaluating or examining the information or data present on the celcom.com.my. This could be due to technical issues, limited access, or website may be temporarily down for maintenance or experiencing technical difficulties.
  • Celcom Axiata protects their ownership data, a common and legal practice. However, from our perspective, this lack of transparency can impede trust and accountability, which are essential for establishing a credible and respected business entity.
  • We conducted a search on social media and found several negative reviews related to Celcom Axiata. These reviews may indicate issues with the company's products, services, or customer support. It is important to thoroughly research the company and its offerings before making any purchases to avoid any potential risks.

It’s so ANNOYING as I m in a RUSH to attend a meeting…I told her off n stop asking repeated questions n be quick…THE CS JUST CUT OFF MY CALL!

How RUDE n it’s VERY DISAPPOINTING!

Then I called again the new CS was polite person…malay girl…👍

I SINCERELY HOPE THAT CELCOM TAKE STERN ACTION AGAINST HER INCLUDING DISMISSAL…👍

Celcom Axiata Unfair charge

Assalamualaikum wbt

I would like to complain about my July bill. I just came back from Saudi Arabia and I activated 30-day roaming pass twice.

I came back with bills amounted RM 527.45.

I contacted the customer service via whatsapp on 31/7/2023 after I came back from Saudi Arabia and asked about the bills.

The person in charge that I chatted with informed me that I was charged for voicemail for all the calls that I did not pick up.

The issue is, first, I don’t know that Celcom will charge for voicemail and I’ve never been informed on that upon activation of roaming.

Secondly, I didn’t pick up the call, and it went to voicemail automatically, how can it be my fault if I wasn’t around to pick up the phone.

Thirdly, I didn’t receive any voicemail, yet I’ve been charged for that.

The call log that he had given to me were as below

Pada 30/6/2023 awak ada terima panggilan dari nombor ini [protected] sebanyak 2 kali.

[protected] no ini pada 07/07/2023.

[protected] no ini pada 11/07/2023

[protected] terima sebanyak 2 kali pada tarikh yang sama iaitu 11/07/2023

[protected] no ini pada 15/07/2023

[protected] no ini pada 16/07/2023

[protected] no ini pada 20/07/2023

The roaming charge is RM301.60. He kept on changing his explanation when I asked why the bill reached RM300. Initially he said I was charged per call. Then, he changed to per second. Then, he changed again to per minute.

When I asked for detailed breakdown of the bills, he asked me to check on the bill, of which I couldn’t find the details on the bills.

I think the charge is unfair, as I hasn’t been informed, I don’t even know the unanswered call is charged because of the voicemail, and I am charged for something that I don’t receive. Furthermore, the charge of RM300+ means that there were around 50+ unanswered calls.

I’m frustrated with the Celcom service. Even the coverage is not good. And now, they are charging for something that I don’t use. They can't simply make money on customers for uninformed charge.

Desired outcome: I want my bills to be reduced. I want an explanation how can the bill go up to RM300+. I don't want to pay for the service that I don't use and I don't know exist and I don't know it is charged.

Celcom Axiata Network

As salam.

1. Bad coverage in general area Taman Puncak Utama, 43000, Kajang, Selangor.

2. Reason was that they had to vacate the shared tower with Maxis.

3. Business n general communications is always disrupted resulting in loss of business n contacts.

4. General area Taman Puncak Utama has no coverage or limited coverage since 20 July 23.

5. Switching to other reliable service provider is not possible due to outstanding contracts signed with Celcom Digi.

6. What are the steps taken and how long will problem persist?

7. What are the rebates and compensation to be offered to Celcom Digi subscribers due to incompetence in providing telecommunications services.

Celcom Axiata Bad services. Liar.

The agent called me to offer a free phone. I asked her so many times, whether my existing plan which was Mega80 wil change or not, all my monthly payment will increase or not, she said 'no'. That was why i agreed to take the free phone. I already received the phone. But when my bill came out, it was stated there my current plan is Mega98 and monthly payment also increased. When i called them to tell this issue, it seem no point. They promised to call me back until now i haven't received any call yet from them. Are you trying to close my case without any solution at all? Are you a scammer? Please la Celcom don't manipulate your customer, be professional. Try to put yourself in other's shoes. I want you to call me back and provide me a solution regarding this issue. Don't simply ignore.

Celcom Axiata Contract termination & poor follow up

Sat 28 Jan – Went to Blue Cube Greentown Ipoh, unable to terminate the contract due to “server error” when they tried to read my fingerprint. Spent 1 hour in the morning and afternoon another 20 mins at this centre. Was told ticket was raised but didn’t receive any sms.

Thurs 2 Feb – Went to Blue Cube Ayer Itam Penang, again same issue when they tried to scan my finger print. The staff raised the ticket an I received the sms with Cased ID # CS5486430.

Called the hotline and talked to the Customer Service Exec then after request talked to the Manager. She asked me to pay the penalty $2604 thru JomPay which I did and she promised to

call back in 3 hours to update the contract termination status. Waited until Friday morning and no calls.

Fri 3 Feb – Called to hotline again and upon request talked to the 2nd Manager. Was asked to pay $209 for the upcoming bill amount in order to terminate the contract which I did.

Sat 4 Feb – Contract yet to terminate so called the Hotline again. And now talked to the 3rd Manager and she said the termination delayed due to system migration. Asked her why Celcom’s billing system never had any issues as they can bill the exact amount on the exact date without FAIL.

Unable to accept this kind of lame excuse for something that can be done within hours. It is all about people and their mentality/attitude. And NOW, I am still waiting for a miracle from Celcom….

Desired outcome: Overall Customer Service Improvements

Celcom Axiata Internet Reload via Celcom Life App

I have been reloading Internet for my celcom sim through the celcom life app for quite some time and realised a huge issue. When I'm left with, say 5 or 8GB, my Internet becomes really slow and I receive a message from Celcom asking me to reload my Internet. I will opt to reload my Internet plan to get more GB. However, once I reloaded my Internet, my remaining GB is lost. For example, I have 8 GB remaining on my device, I opted for 30GB+99GB YouTube. Instead of getting 38GB in my account, I only have 30GB. My remaining GB was supposed to last for 28-30 days within my account but I was wrongly deprived of it. Please mend this issue as soon as possible.

Desired outcome: I would like a compensation and also request the company to change their policy in such a way that my remaining GB will not disappear after reloading.

Celcom Axiata Purchased iphone 14 pro at celcom online shop

I would like to make a complaint regards to Celcom Online Shop. I had purchased Iphone 14 Pro with Data Plan on 6th December 2022 at Celcom Online Shop: https://shop.celcom.com.my/home . The website mentioned it will deliver within 7 days, I decided to check the status of my purchase on 12th December 2022 which i found out that the system shown the order created. I had made a call to Celcom Customer Service on 14th December 2022, they had highlighting to me that did not receive my ordered which I had given the order ID. I been told to logged a case to report this which they will checking with their online store. 15th December 2022, i contacted Celcom Customer Service, a staff called Issac had informed that to resubmit the supporting document such as email from Celcom, proof of payment to [protected]@celcom.com.my which i had forwarded and given the case ID no. He informed that he will submit to higher level to investigate my case. On 16th December 2022, Issac had contacted me to asked me sent the supporting document one more time to Celcom Whatsapp +[protected] which i did it immediately and he told that will contact me if have any outcome.

I made a call to Celcom Customer Service today, 19th December 2022 which still no outcome from them. I was so disappointed that it been charged my card & Celcom did not have any of my order. The sad part was every time i made a call to Celcom Customer Service which they keep apology and working on it which still not solves my case and this is the third week. When I asked whether can refund or cancel order which they informed cannot and I asked whether can be walk in to Celcom Cube to take the phone since my current phone spoil which they're not allow. In such, they did not provide an alternative way to solve my problem and just keep telling me to wait and working on my issue. It's ridiculous that my order did not find in their system and my card was charged. This is the first time I had experience on such a bad online purchase service.

Celcom Axiata Poor customer service guys at celcom bluecube at alamanda shopping centre

Date: 19 December 2022

Time: Around 1.30pm

Location: Celcom Bluecube Alamanda Shopping Centre

A very poor customer service handle by a guy when I am about to asking direction of service provided in that premises.

At that time, there are no customer service people are available. I waited around 1-2 minute to see/scout if there are possibilities to see any direction of what will customer to do (such as taking qué number, etc) while waiting for customer service people to assist what to do next.

So I saw, a customer service guys assisting a woman & decided to ask the direction of service provided (SOP on what to do in order to get assistance). But, the guys immediately telling me (pointing finger to a direction of a customer service woman) to go there with a rude way & poor tone of voice and telling me that he with a customer. So I am telling him, can you be more polite? He again telling me that he is with a customer. I'm asking him again, are you in a bad mood? If you were, I also in a bad mood. But we must control our emotions.

Desired outcome: Should be handle with more appropriate manner, polite, and tone of voice whenever dealing with customer. An apology would be sufficient.

Celcom Axiata Postpaid

Over the weekend from 21st onwards until today 23rd Feb 2022, I found digi line with “1 bar” only and sometimes no internet connection at all. I am working from home and this happened, it is really really frustrating.

My friend told me it was because of changing from 3G to 4G, Fine! Why there were no notices to us? I recalled Celcom sent me series of sms when they upgrade to 4G/ 5G.

Clearly Digi is unable to communicate effectively and no email on its website for customer’s feedback.

Desired outcome: Someone needs to be sacked for such failure. Please learn to COMMUNICATE!!!
