The guy gave me a nightmare when I gave my laptop for repair. He never returned it after almost a week, I took it up with the police.
Even later, he started threatening me.
Finally, after going through lot of stress, got my laptop back with the presence of officers.
My advise would be to avoid SIM lim, especially this shop for repairs.The guy is mentally fucked up. Only release your laptops if the shop is ready to do a spot check & fix in front of you.
Many people, including this guy don't know how to fix & lens it to other shops there & demand for more money. I'm not sure why the police is not taking any actions against these mongers.
Sim Lim cheating cases: Jover Chew, accomplice face additional charges
SINGAPORE: Two more charges were levelled against Jover Chew, who used to own Sim Lim Square electronics retail shop Mobile Air, at a pre-trial conference on Thursday (Jul 30) morning.
Chew, 33, now faces a total of 28 charges. The two fresh charges involve one count of cheating and one count of insulting behaviour.
He is accused of making a customer from China, Ms Zou Jing Tong, pick up coins amounting to S$547 from the floor of Chew's now-defunct shop, Mobile Air, at Sim Lim Square. The refund was given to satisfy an order made by the Small Claims Tribunal.
One of Chew’s four accomplices and co-accused, Kam Kok Keong, also received a fresh charge of cheating by deceiving Ms Zou into paying S$1,600 for an iPhone 6 plus.
Chew’s other accomplices, Koh Guan Seng, Kelvin Lim and Edmund Lim, face 15, one, and two charges of cheating respectively.
Chew’s dishonest practices came to light in 2014, when a viral video of a tourist begging Chew for a refund, began circulating online. The Vietnamese man had paid S$950 for an iPhone 6, but was told he had to pay another S$1,500 in warranty fees.
The five men are out on bail, and will appear in court again on Aug 27.
For each count of cheating, the men could face up to 10 years’ jail and a fine.
