Online payment is very convenient but at the same time it can be very, VERY scary! Especially in Malaysia...

Few weeks ago, I bought two flight tickets online coz it's much cheaper than going through travel agent. I happily paid using my debit card, being very proud of myself for getting such cheap tickets. However, when I checked my balance in the evening, I realised that I've been charged double the price. Instead of RM300, I was charged RM600!! I got a shock and was so worried! I didn't know what to do. RM300 is a lot for a poor working lady with tons of commitments like me. I couldn't sleep that night! I was tossing and turning on my bed thinking of what to do, who to call, whether I should go to the bank or not, what to say to them etc. Luckily, in the morning, when I double-checked my balance, I realised that the overcharged amount has been added back into my account. I was SOOOO relieved!!

Just when I were to dismiss it as a one-off thing, it happened again! Yesterday, when I bought Universal Studios tickets online, they overcharged me again! ARGH!!! As of now, it has not been resolved yet. I'll check again tomorrow morning, hopefully it will be corrected. Otherwise, it'll be really troublesome and I won't like it! Why do they always have to deduct more than they are supposed to? Don't they know that they are actually putting people off?

After these, I'll think twice before paying anything online. Actually, I'll try to avoid paying online unless it is absolutely necessary. I never had any problem making online payments in Christchurch. In fact, I don't use cash at all when I was there, it was either EFTPOS or online payment. Everything was so easy and safe there. Why can't it be the same here?! I really don't understand. Maybe it is just me...

1. Singapore trip this coming Thursday. Sentosa Island, Universal Studio, Orchard Road...here I come!
2. Cousin brother's wedding. Finally I get to attend! I've missed a few of my cousins' weddings in the past due to my studies in NZ.
3. Long study leave from work! However, I am not looking forward to my 1st ACCA paper coz I haven't really start studying yet! *worried*
4. The end of the year. By the end of the year, if JPA still hasn't call me up for interview then I AM FREEEEE!! *finger crossed*
5. Meeting up with dear friends from NZ who will be graduating and coming back to Malaysia end of this year! Yipeee!!
6. CHRISTMAS!! Love Christmas! Best time of the year! ^^

Dearest Viva,

I'm really grateful to you for always being there when I needed you. Thanks for always bringing me to my destination safely. But sorry, I know I'm not a good owner. You are only 7 months old but you've had scratches all over you already. I'm sorry I couldn't protect you from those idiots who keep adding scratches onto your beautiful body. I have no idea why would anyone in their right minds would do such an awful act. I am absolutely disgusted by the stupid idiot(s) who broke your window! Sorry for not being able to keep you at a safer place, away from all those mindless people. Just so you know, it was not my intention to keep bumping you into curbs and poles. But as u know, I'm still new at this. So, please forgive me. You've really been through a lot the past 7 months. I'm really sorry and ashamed of myself. I will be more careful and take better care of you from today onwards. I promise! We've still got a long way to go. Love you! =)
