I saw people having problems with sandisk so I bought myself kingston.

So far so good for my Note 2.

Not sure where I heard it.

Seems like scandisk the quality degraded.

Heard a lot of RMA for it while Kingstone is catching up on quality.

I am still pending to go for scandisk or kingstone! haiz.

Keep finger crossed if you buy Sandisk.
RMA mine.
3 days to get a case via phone, settled those online form, verified genuine product and received instructions to send to HK for replacement.
7 days to reach HK via Singpost and it must be registered mail at your own expense.
14 days for HK service center to verify the product and informed me that my replacement will be send.
It is 6 days since they sent out my replacement and till now i have not received...

For a pricey well known brand like Sandisk to get a simple RMA done take more than 2 weeks and still not resolved, i think i will not buy Sandisk anymore after this...

Huh??? Why you go through so much trouble? You CAN service non-local Sandisk microSD cards at local Sandisk outlets, you just have to pay a fee.

if I know it's going to take this long to replace it, bet I would go ahead with the local outlets.

However, based on my understanding, the local outlet plus fee does not warrant a replacement within 2 weeks. That fee is charged for administration. And do note that local outlets are only authorized distributors, not service centre. Anyone paid to get a replacement from the local and manage to do a 1 to 1 replacement?

Just my personal thought after rma for the first time with sandisk.
1. big brand with no local service centre to handle replacement is a big joke. 3 authorized distributors, no service centre...
2. process to get a replacement is too long. they require you to send in first, check and verify before replacement is being send out.
3. after trusting the brand so much and paid a high price for it, you need to pay for your own delivery to them in order to get a replacement back.

I cannot recall which is the brand and item I brought before but they sent me a replacement once I scan the receipt and snap a photo of the item for verification. and they even include a return envelope for the faulty item. all at their expense and they use courier services instead of normal registered mail. all done within a week. That's what I call quality after sale service. I think it's Microsoft Arc keyboard that I claimed warranty on it's last year of coverage.

with that rma experience, I returned with more purchase and recommendation to mu friends.

its disappointing as i use sandisk CF cards exclusively for my photography. their QC on ultra mobile microsd is just not there along with their rma procedures...
