Wanted to bring closure to this thread and here's what happened:
- Sent my note 2 for repair on 13 Dec at Dhoby Ghuat Plaza Singapura
- Samsung called me to quote $358.23 for replace main and sub motherboards on 16 Dec
- Samsung sms me on 17 Dec morning to collect repaired phone
- Collected phone and make payment on 17 Dec afternoon at Dhoby Ghuat Plaza Singapura
The Samsung Service Centre is crowded on both occasions that I visited. The technical staff even almost forgot to collect payment from me until I reminded them :/
