Boater Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 I have noticed UBC are running a promotion , free installation and 1 month free . I rang the main service centre with my address and home number and they told me I had to contact my local agent in samui . So I went to the booth in tesco lotus on 3 occations , and no body is ever there , even picked up there leaflet showing the offer , have rang the number many times ( local samui number ) and again nobody answers ... ( Also they seem to advertise higher prices then the ubc website ) Anyway , if you have ubc , who did you contact to install ? And how quick where they to come and install ? , are national ubc promotions available on samui ? Or am I likely to get riped off by the local agent Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tropicalevo Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 and they do not open before 10 am Mon to Sat. At times I have found them closed again at 3 pm. The install/call out engineer is usually next day. If you rent, the service is better than if you buy. (if you live on the island- rent it. Repairs are free.) Yes - they do try the occasional rip off, but it will not be much. (now and then a 20 baht/50 baht 'service charge'. In 10 years - only once have I had the "cannot print a receipt" only to find that the payment was not recorded at HO. I look after 12 accounts, and the girl is no longer there. These days they always give receipts for the paymaents Yes, national promos are available here. Sometimes they do 3 months free for a particular package. (gold/platinum etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boater Posted October 24, 2010 Author Share Posted October 24, 2010 Thanks tropicalevo Will pop down there tomorrow , will rent as its 282 per month , plus 2000 for plat . If they install for free and give one month for free , I presume there is no upfront payment . Do they require blue book or anything for your property ?
