Hi gals,

can i find out if any of you took the singnet promo pkg?

coz i took dat & it's only 8-course, tinking of whether to haf additional dish...
 


hi girl,

i think it costs around $45 to $50. I took the singnet promotion by the way and intend to add one more dish. ask the co-ordinator to put in the option of having additional dish in the contract so that you can decide when nearer the date.
 
Hi EL,

Thanks for your compliments! Me too like the casual ones taken @ the beach. My actual day photographer was taken by a fren.

Hi girl,

What you need to look out for is any "hidden cost" b4 signing out with bridal shop. Get as much perks as you can when negotiating with them. Don't feel paiseh loh.

Cheers,
Sancai

Hi ladies.. after seeing your pics.. especially the outdoor, I think I will ask my hubby to do a 2nd photo-taking. He didnt like the outdoor pics we taken becos he looks fat in it. Hai...

Orchid, still in my biz trip. Very eager to see what's going on here la....

Carol, u sure take a lot of pics on the actual day. How did u come up to 12 rolls?? Thats a lot!! I am not sure how many rolls my photographer took. No time to check with him yet.

Welcome Jen, dont worry about the lack of prep cos somehow it will come out right, like the old saying, when the boat reaches the harbor it will become straight. I think Jan is a good time for wedding, after everyone get their bounes.

And there is lots of sales too!!! I bought my shoes for my evening gown during last christmas.
 
Sancai,

Got it, thanks.....

just got a card from hotel to pick up wedding cards !!! Urghhhhh !!!!!!!

Got to delay for a while
 
Hi Anges,
How are U?

Humm... In fact I'm someone who really love photographs, so I told my photographer to take more. We went for some outdoor phototaking, that's why I had 12 rolls.

Cheers:
Carol

Hi girl,

I didn't ask for more carpark coupons as most of my friends are not driving. I've tried asking for complimentary food tasting but was not successful. How about you? Did you negotiate for complimentary food tasting? I find the food tasting quite ex at 50% so I've decided not to go for it.
 
Hi smallady,

I don't have a copy of my package with me now. Maybe you can call up Eugenia and ask her about the promo? I think the package includes the same things as the normal one except that it's cheaper.
 
Hi EL,

Can I use my partner or my brother singnet's bill to ask for the promo? When is the deadline for the promo?

Thanks
smallady
 
Hi smallady,

You can only use either your own or your hubby's. Don't think can use your brother's bill.

Hi Carol,

Thanks for posting the link.
 
Hi Carol

Very sad, I haven't even sign the confirmation letter and Eugenia said it was only offered at the point of enquiry not confirmation.

smallady
 
Hi EL,

I know my hubby has it, but eugenia cannot give the offer to me, even though I have not signed with them yet. very sad.. kinda of depress now. You know, my in-laws was a bit upset that i have more tables than them, and I m trying hard to cut down costs for my partner. But now I cudn't... kinda of sad.
 
Hi smallady,

I went to the website and this is the term and condition stated:

Terms & Conditions of this offer:

Both Promotional Packages are valid for SingNet and Magix subscribers only.
Both Packages are valid for confirmation between 1st September 2002 and 31st December 2002.
Please present your latest SingNet/ SingTel Magix bill and NRIC upon confirmation of package.

You can try to "fight" for your right! It's stated in black and white that the promotion is valid for CONFIRMATION between 1st Sep and 31st Dec. It did not state that it's only valid during enquiry! How can they use such a lame excuse!!
 
Hi EL,
I've not tried asking for more complimentary coupons, failed in getting complimentary food tasting. Find that the 50% off is ex too but will keep on trying to negiotiate...hekhek...

Hi smallady,
totally agree wif jas77, since you haven't sign the contract, tink u still can bargain wif her. juz curious, how many tables do u have in total? coz u mention ur tables > ur hubby....

cheerios
 
Hi EL,
How many tables have you got? Can try to talk to them again about asking for more tickets.

Hi Smallady,
Have you try talking to Eugenia about that???

Cheers:
Carol

Hi Jaz77

Yes I went to the website carol mentioned, i tried to fight for it... and according to the terms and condition It was stated only upon confirmation. But still she says no, it was only upon point of enquiry. she says she cannot do that for me.

Depress
smallady
 
Hi Carol,

I even begged her, she says it was not possible. I was so upset that I become so aggressive and tried so hard to fight until... sigh dun wish to mention wat is the content... but may to them I seems to be so yao gui.. but I really wanted to cut down for my hubby. I can't sleep last nite.. drank half bottle of wine to sleep.
 
Hi Girl,

I have 25tables, maybe going more becoz of my relatives. I m getting stress up now even though wedding was at dec 2003. I dunno still considering whether to take up the original package or find another one. I think I jepoardize the whole matter last nite when talking to Eugenia,guess I have offended her more or less. Eugenia is nice, but I still dun understand how come the terms and condition does apply to those upon confirmation, when I have even signed the confirmation.

depressing
Smallady
 
Hi girls
wow, great to see so many many posting here.
very excited that my big day is coming soon.
Stars away for honey moon liao,hope to hear from her when's she's back

Hi smallady
have you asked Eugenia about it ? She's always very helpful and I doubt she will give any LAME excuses. As this promo is exclusively for singnet subscribers only, of course you have to 'present' your bill and IC for verification lah, otherwise, any tom dick and harry can get this promo package too. Try not to jump to any conclusion before you see the whole picture or have a better understanding of the whole situation, it's only fair that at the point of enquiry that you make known that you are a singnet subscriber and that you are keen on the promo package, so both of you speak the same language and sing the same tune, nevertheless,don't be so upset lah, try to speak to Eugenia again, I guess she must be feeling the same way too, she always understand how we feel. Hope she can help you in some way or other

SP
 
Hi Carol,

How many did you use? Was thinking if request for so many and then didn't use, will it be a waste? How many do you think I should ask for? Sorry for asking so much.
 
Hi smallady,

Don't be sad lah. I think the savings is not much though I don't know how much you are paying for per table.

Is your in-laws paying for your banquet? If not, they shouldn't worry about which side has more tables. I also have more tables than my hubby's side cos my family is a big one plus both my grandmothers are still around so of course I'll have more relatives who keep in touch with us. Besides, we are paying for the banquet ourselves so our parents didn't comment much. Maybe your in-laws are just concerned about you and didn't want you and hubby to overstrain your budget?

Don't worry, ask Eugenia about the terms and see what she says about the confirmation thing.
 
Hi Smallady,
I understand how you feel. Please don't feel so sad about that. The saving going to a lot of dirfferent for you? Is that a possible chance to cut down the number of tables?
 
Hi SP,
So grart to see you here, so you're on your way to your big day. Must be feeling very excited now...
How's all the preparation, you must ready to be a beautiful bride.

Yes, Stars is on honetmoon, will ask to tell us more about her wedding day and honeymoon.

Carol

Hi EL,
Sorry I can't really remember how many I've got, but I didn't finish them...
some of guests are not driving on that day.
 
Hi SP,

I know Eugenia won't give lame excuse I was doubting whether her boss know how to read the terms and condition or not... She is just an employee working for her boss, she has no say in it, but I hope I won't jepoardise my relationship with her, coz she is a very nice lady. I have been thinking the whole nite, have I been too aggressive in demanding for singnet promo? perhaps I m... sigh....

smallady
 
Hi EL,

I m paying S$688 for per table, so the dif is $70 per table. my in-laws have only 8 tables and the rest of the tables are mine... both of us are paying for the banquet not the in-laws, I know they are concerned that we might spent too much on the banquet, and I was thinking maybe they thought that their son is paying for the banquet only. I can't tell them we are both paying, coz, in every man there is pride. My in-laws even ask me to rent a wedding gown at 100 dollars will do hehehehehe. I dun blame them, coz they keep thinking in their times, 100dollars to rent a gown is pretty expensive. That's y whatever I do, I try to think of a best solution to solve both side problem.
 
hi carol,

I tried to negotiate with my parents, but end up everything went sour.. my mom is understanding but it will be hard for her to opern her mouth and tell my relatives not to come. she dun wish to offend them.

smallady
 
Hi smallady,
so we are in the same predicament! I realised there is this singnet promotion last week when I saw the dicussion here. So I checked with Eugenia and she says ok, we are entitled and even sent me the Singnet package. But the next day, she said her mgt decided otherwise even though we have not signed the contract yet. I felt quite disappointed but to a larger extent, worried. I have no complaints about Eugenia but seems like there is no room for negotiation at all with the hotel mgt, even though we have not even signed up or paid deposit. Will we be trapped after we have paid deposit?
 
Hi SY,

Sama Sama, I think her boss is the main mastermind hahahahaahhaa... sorry need to laugh it off... coz very stress leh. Sigh, then wat for put terms and conditions rite? My english not so good, but still, I can understand wat it means by upon confirmation kekekekeke.. sigh..just our luck sy. So are u still considering HIPV? Actually regretted being aggressive towards Eugenia, coz at that moment I almost went crazy thinking abt the diff we will have to pay.

smallady
 


Hi Smalllady,

Can understand how u feel.. I myself also dunno abt this singnet promotion until today. I mean I heard abt it in this forum, but I dun wanna prone too muz, 'cos I've already confirmed my package at a usual price minus abit of dollars.
When I went in to take a peep juz now.. wow .. the promo price is indeed much much lower than my package. I was also 'dui' at tat second. But I can do nutting except knock my head against the wall abt not being updated of this promotion.
crazy.gif

Think the only thing we can do now is to look forward & not backward. Try not to regret for things u've already done, & try to make the best out of it
happy.gif
, of cos u still have the choice of choosing HIPV & other places.
