Wow the power of inflation!

 

Thats why I try to spend all my money as soon I get it.

 

Unfortunately I have not succeeded and I have been spending money even before I even earn it.

Hi, need to urgently replace car battery for my Toyota Vios.

 

Looking for a new maintenance-free type. Appreciate recommendations on the brand/model (price including labour) & workshop for the replacement.

 

Thank lots.

 

Hi all, thanks for all the discussion & recommendations.

 

Have my car battery replaced already.

 

Cheers.

Sorry to hijack this thread, as I don't know of any other way to DEFEND myself against many false allegations by DACB on their Facebook (8,600+ followers); and depriving me of means to make an honest living.

Truth About Dial-A-Car-Battery (DACB)

My name is Bobby Ng. I am a former employee of DACB and want to share with everyone how I had been short-changed by my "honest" former employer and how he tried very hard to deprive me of the means to make a living. Please see the attached LABOUR COURT ORDER issued by MOM on 29-Jan-2015. I ask you to judge for yourself the truthfulness of my words versus the "honesty" of DACB. As you can see, the Court had made a judgement against DACB (Eric Koh Tat Fatt) and ordered DACB to pay me $9,145 being money they shortchanged me for the 4 months that I worked there.

When Eric hired me, he made promises to entice me to work for DACB but many of these promises were not kept. Despite that, I worked hard and served DACB's customers well, getting many good feedback on DACB Facebook. When I asked Eric about missing payments (eg for midnight rescues), he gave excuses and made my life very difficult, forcing me to tender my resignation on 31-Dec-2014. But on 4-Jan-2015, Eric announced on DACB Facebook that he had terminated me due to "grounds of misconduct" and posted my photo as well. Eventually, he had to remove these defamatory postings after the Court hearing. But by then, damage had already been done.

Fortunately I have formal certification (NTC2 Vehicle Mechanic), good skills and experience. Despite DACB's attempt to demolish me, I will continue to work very hard and earn an honest living.

I am writing this article to DEFEND myself because DACB has once again started to spread lies and I can no longer remain silent. DACB can go on telling people how "honest" they are on their DACB FB - I will just let the Court document do the talking. Thank you for reading.

P/S: I am prepared for "haters". Yet I also believe in "goodness" of most fellow beings.

I empathize you situation. Hope that you will get your outstanding pay soon.

 

3 months of outstanding pay to an employee kinda explain what kind of company you are operating...

[Chucky2007]

1 of my first company that I worked in.. capitalized on bad economy in 1998.. gave me a low pay and 7 days annual leave, and justify saying it's minimum MOM guideline.. which now I also don't know whether I kanna bluff.. after putting in hard work of 10-12 hours every days for sometimes 6 days to 7 days per week.. give me a $150 pay raise.. I quit immediately and offered me $500 pay raise.. knnccb.. really some employers just exploit good workers.
