The micro issue of personal experience. We are all entitled to seek the best service as individuals and I don’t need COFEK to but into my personal customer service issues unless I specifically invite them to. Having said that its always a good opportunity for organisations like COFEK to take up such issues for public interest - with a caveat. If the original complainant isn’t interested in cooperating with COFEK or other Consumer Champions then that is also his/her right. No one should try to bully them otherwise.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Whilst COFEK provides a valued public service and I applaud them, I would like to humbly request my good brothers and sisters at COFEK to really examine their model of operations.
