This way, way beyond anything acceptable. I think the only solution would be an official one-week flying and booking boycott organized via Facebook. I am all in.

Fellow Krisflyer members and (now) ex-SQ passengers have voiced their complaints on SQ's customer relations department for months but to only fall on deaf and arrogant ears. Online website and web blogs notably sqtalk.com and flyertalk.com have shouted loud and clear about lost revenue from frustrated passengers. One man gave up booking 6 Suites class seats from LHR to SYD last year and booked with TG instead !! SQ's only response was - call our reservations department, loh ! Which incidentally is located in INDIA ! SQ had one IT company design this horrible website. The old one worked fine and was more pleasant to work with.
Why change a good thing to a horrible thing? But what was worse was that SQ refused to admit fault (typical) and yes when the CEO admitted that there was a problem and that it would be fixed soon... but that was 6 months ago and NOTHING has changed. In fact it got worse! Is it that SQ does not want to lose face? Well, it has lost it long ago. If it admitted a problem and fixed it right away, then all would be saved. Including their glamour honor. But now, SQ's website is the laughing stock of all the airlines in the world.
To those who book online - why list cities that SQ does not even fly to. ISN'T it more logical to have SINGAPORE right up there as everyone would be looking at least to/from SINGAPORE? I don't want to scroll through all of APIA to ABERDEEN to AUCKLAND to find SINGAPORE. And even when I attempt to book a codesharing flight, I was told on website, that SQ does not service the city. What is the point in this ??? Yes, this is certainly gaining interest as the airline others talk about !

Perhaps they have to run by SQ before posting on line?

Goh Choon Pong should lose his job for failing his customers, his employees, his shareholders, and to a somewhat smaller measure, the national pride of Singapore.
A website is a fundamental commercial tool of an airline's enterprise, and to allow this level of entrenched incompetence is a perfectly justifiable career-ending move.

Something I also realised that the SQ website will not do...
If outbound has higher fare eg H class, instead of W class, but inbound flight has W class, the SQ website will automatically choose H class for both directions instead of oneway in H and the return in W for a combined difference of the two. That is what MOST airline websites will do and choose. So in fact, SQ is cheating the customer.
While my fare was ex-BKK, the difference wasn't that great. But it would be for someone departing from say EU !

Flew BKK-SIN yesterday. Am to fly SIN-BKK on Wed.
Went online to change flight.
Was given choice to change either one or two segments.
Chose one segment obviously, the SIN-BKK segment.
Result : ERROR. Call SQ Reservations.
Conclusion : Calling the Indian Call Centre is just as useless. I'll head to ION instead.

If GOD created me for only 1 reason. That reason would be to the love of my wife. If there was any other reasons involved, that would be for the love of Singapore Airlines
