TSE Maid Agency reviews and complaints

Im using the same agency : TSE MAID AGENCY, the service are really really bad! Process renew my maid's visa take few months until the maid's visa expired! I really feel felt up to call them, as they will always say call back but never, or might not pick up phone! (due to this agency, my Father in Law now angry of me, as he always pressure me to let the maid back as the maid's family call him daily, but this agent's bad services let him feels like is my problem and bother him, until now still angry of me totally not talking with me for 4 months)
Now still pending for cancellation as my maid didn't back to Malaysia, so we need to do cancellation, also take few months, until now haven't settle for me yet! They are liar, im strongly agreed! AS i still have balance of RM300 with them (excess due to they haven't renew my maid's passport), so the staff named JAMMY said, she will help me to do cancellation, the fees + travelling is RM250, so she will return RM50 to me. But now, she said the RM50 will be the travelling expenses for her (see! the bad service + liar). Its ok, the RM50 let me consider i've donated. The problem is, until now, the cancellation still not done yet, few months already!
Everyone saw this please tell your friends or your relatives do not use this agency! Stronlgy not recommended!

The same agency im using, TSE, really bad service! Renewal my maid's visa take few months until the visa expired! Call the agency staff named JAMMY, everyday telling me besok lusa, what service is this?! Until my Father in Law angry of me (almost 4 moths already due to this case) as he thought im purposely don't let the maid to back to Cambodia. Now need to do cancellation of my maid as she didn't back to Malaysia, also take few months, at first told me the fee is RM250 (i still have balance of RM300 with the agent), now tell me need to pay them RM50 being the travelling expenses (I think she want to telan my money), it is ok as this is what im expected they will did! But the problem is, money they want, but now 2 months already, my cancellation haven't done yet!

Anyone survey for maid agency please do not go for TSE MAID AGENCY (Sg Long Branch). I Strongly wont recommend this agency, really bad service!

Hey guys ! Since i read from the complaint and both party, but some times many thing is not control by agencies, Myself that it happen before in immigration, i submit my document to Immigration by myself they misplace my doc and officer said no record in system, I was submit my maid document to Immigration by myself, and they told after a week u can come or call to immigration to check but the way i m already wait almost 3 week, and they told me re submit again, i was so angry but i cant scold them, because i need a maid if not they were give me trouble. but later about this i have to submit again. so i will understand agencies why some time there cannot give the promise. and some times both also must understand each other .

Is there a government agency to look after these issue we faced ? Such maid agencies must be regulated as many issues raised but seems no action done nor any government intervention. really mad!

want to decide take a maid, the maid is not 100% is prefect, if prefect is not call a maid, they can same position with the employer already, the agency is have train, sometimes the maid is so may pattern, sometimes they after go employer only show out the pattern, the maid date arrival actually i think don have all agency is use promise this word to promise to customer, coz this problem sometimes is processing problem, if want hire a maid must be patient to wait, somemore now is less supply, but demand is more, sometimes the immigresion is process slow also cant blame agnecy, agency is to help customer to find a maid, don keep all the problem blame to agency, and then all the maids is doing fomema only go to employer house, unless that agency is using tourist visa, thats y make so many problem come out ...
if is use calling visa sure is after medical only can go employer ...
somemore all the agency also standard warranty period is 3 months only, if after 3 months if the maid run or reject or dont want to work is all burn already .

pls all the customer must understanding

That time i have ask true now Indonesia maid can come, she told me YES, we still can get it. She say you may paid RM500 for booking the maid, cause i paid it. She say the maid can come 1-2 month. between 1 month i call to check the status she say Immigration not approve yet, i wait, wait until NOV i call, she O...now Indonesia cannot come you choose cambodian maid. When i hear this i'm very ungry i say i call you today you just told me saying NOW indonesia cannot come, if i not call you, your never call me to say this. I compelled to choose combodian. Same she say 1-2 month combodian can come. i wait till JAN 2010, i call to check she say the maid you choose cannot come you choose other combodian, ...i no SOUND but i'm very UNGRY. No choose cause can't refund the money total i pay +- RM5000. Have only choose another. Chiness New Year is near, she promis me say before chiness new Year can arrive.

AP ZNS Wawasan Recruiting Sdn Bhd is a cheat! I agree. Read through my complaint posted on this webpage.

tse worst agency ever. poor services, staff attitude freaking bad, no money no talk, got money, talk money again. maid quality bad but nevermind, the worst thing is their service, my maid still not yet arrive, i just wanted to know my maid status, the staff shoot me said " ms, im not incharge ur maid application, please find back the marketer who serviced you, im busy to attend customer" i replied " this maid is under your agency and you work in this company, you just help me to check, i give you my husband name? she replied" sorry la ms can u more 5 hour only call back? i really dont know who are you can u dont ask me?" i replied " is this ur way to talk with customer? can i speak to your manager? if you couldnt help then please pass hp to anyone of your agency to talk to me better. she straight close hp zzzz.

AP. ZNS Wawasan Recruting S/Bhd in Klang is a cheat.! I have a bad experience with them. First of all I have been given quote at RM6935 in total, 2 months later, another quote reaching RM7900 and then 2 more quotes followed after that and the last one came up to RM9000. I agreed to accept the revised quotes since I was so desperate, but couldn't accept any longer on the last one. All in it took 7 months, but no sign of the maids at all except at one stage I was offered a 'recycled ' one, but Inahev to reject it.. I have filed a case in Tribunal court.

I would like to complaint about my maid agency which is in Bandar Puteri, Puchong, the company is Agency Pekerjaan SetiaXXXXX Sdn Bhd, is same row with OCBC bank,
My maid have ran away and after new days she returned to our house then we sent her back
to maid agency for counselling since mid of September and yet they no news for us how to settle these issue. After long waiting for more than 6 weeks she still no news for us, not until yesterday we rang this maid agency for solution, and request back our maid but they refuse to
give us back our maid which is still under my name.
I suspect they already rent out for others or send to others house for trial during 3 mths period to learn back another agency fees. They can't even give me back my maid and asked us to collect my maid in Embassy...What do you think and any comments on this?

Nonsense! why you all likes to complaint so much? so free to wrote a lot of nonsense here...
If you feel upset, not satisfy, don need to argue, there have so many agencies to go, otherwise don use agency, you can do it your self...
and also, don't simply say somebody cheating your money, if you have prove, you can report to police, you can complaint to tribunal, if they really cheating your money, can ask lawyer to sue them.

peace be with each and every one.I am from TSE Agency.which regards to your complaints i am very sorry.As a maid, not all of the maids that they are sending here are lazy and untrained. Before we came here we are being trained well.But which regard towards the attitudes of the maids, I think the problem is on the maid itself.Because when we are talking about discipline we are being thought well and give instructions and we are being oriented about the Do's and Don'ts.But to the management, I myself has a complain but i just keep up my silence.It's all up to you to judge what kind of management they had.I am also trying to give a call to the one who is incharged with me but her number cannot be reach.Anyway thank you for all you're comments and reactions about my fellow maids.It gives a lot of help for me to improve more.Thank you very much and GOD BLESS!

I am too late to read all complaint about TSE Maid agency.

They also cheated my money total of RM11, 000.00++

My regret to take maid from them.

I cannot agree more with you regarding AP TSE's services. I am liaising with their Sg Long Branch. I applied for my new maid since Nov 2009. They promised me she'll arrive within 2mths+. Finally came time for her to arrive, they say she'll be on the flight the following week. They never kept me informed on any updates, and instead I had to keep on calling the sales rep. After a few days of the maid supposed arrival date, i called again to find out that the maid was NOT on that flight. They screwed up their internal communication, and finally at the end of 3 mths, i got my maid.

However, just within 1 week of the maid working with me, they inform me that the maid had failed the local FOMEMA medical test. But according to the CAmbodian health test, the maid had passed. I am amazed that they engage in such partners in CAmbodia. That's not the end of it. So I was very very upset after all that has happened, they asked me to pick another replacement FOC. Having picked one, the new maid came about 2 months later. (the initial promise date was 4-5 weeks seeing that mine was an 'urgent' case). Throughout the entire process, they did NOT keep me updated on what was happening.

I was so disappointed with their lack of service, i wrote a letter complaining to the manager in charge and also the Managing Director explaining my case. They did not respond until I called the agency asking to speak directly to the Manager, but conveniently, the manager is NEVEr around. The following day, someone from HQ calls me and says she's been assigned to "update" me on the progress. I was a little relieved that someone is listening.

Finally the 2nd maid comes along. I asked them to help me pick one with a decent level of education so that she could have at least minimal english ability. The new maid had next to ZERO ability. She kept repeating every word I said, couldn't figure out how to open/ close doors despite me teaching her many times. I even have a dictionary to refer english words to her with the corresponding cambodian word, and the maid just didn't get it. She'd only repeat evertyhing I say but get almost everything wrong. One day she forgot / or did not know how to close the balcony door, and within seconds, I couldn't find my 1 year old baby. I rushed out to the balcony to find the baby had already walked out to the balcony (which she could actually climb over - and we live on the 5th floor). Naturally I freaked out. I gave her another chance by slowly teaching her how to use the washing machine. She stared at me, and even after I marked down every knob, box for her to click, she could not even follow that. The worst part is, she lacks any form of courtesy and will take my belongings as if it belongs to her. If i were to ask for her to return it, she'd be aggressively pointing that she wants it.

AFter all that horror, I refused to keep her as she was untrainable. The agency wanted me to give her another try after they provide 1 more round of training. The maid upon return to the agency complained that she could not learn because I was trying to teach her Chinese and English at the same time. This is ridiculous. I can't even get her to understand english words, why would I bother teaching her chinese.

I was not willing to anymore to keep this maid as her existence in my home poses high danger risk for my baby.

I've asked for a refund several times but they insisted to find another replacement. So OK. They recommmended a Filipino. Fine. I went ahead and started to go through their online portfolio. I even asked that they do phone interviews with some candidates as that is the same service other agencies provide. So they said, yeah, just pick a few and we'll interview them based on questions that you want us to ask. (again, i only manage to find out all these if i keep calling them endlessly. the sales agent is perpetually avoiding calls, or never updates me on any matters).

Finally today I found a few candidates I was interested in, and I called the sales agent. She abruptly cuts me off and says she'll call me back. She never did. So I sms-ed her all the biodatas I wanted to check, but guess what? just within an hour or so, the one I was super keen on was 'TAKEN' by another customer. I called up their HQ to complain but they say its not their problem. I have since tried calling the agent more than 10 times, and she just refuses to answer, nor reply sms.

Is there an official government body, or some small business court claims I can bring this up to? Its already half a year and they have kept my full payment since the 1st maid arrived. (this is more than 8k already sitting with them).

Very very upset customer
