SINGAPORE - The Sim Lim Square mobile phone shop under fire for the last few weeks over its unsavoury business practices re-opened for business on Friday, after remaining closed for a week to escape media attention.
The shop, Mobile Air, was in the news after its staff tried to give a female customer more than $1,000 in coins as a refund.
It attracted more media attention and online criticism last week, when a Vietnamese tourist, Mr Pham Van Thoai, had to resort to begging on his knees to get a refund from Mobile Air.
On Wednesday, the Consumers Association of Singapore said it had decided to take out an injunction against the business after the company decided not to sign an agreement to stop its unfair practices.
