"If customer terminates Streamyx service within minimum subscription period of 24 months, an administrative fee of RM350 will be charged to customer’s bill."
Really a down side.
Anyway, can just go to TM center and upgrade right? And request immediate effect.

Just check out the many threads on the main page here and you will learn about the what TMNet is secretly doing to throttle the download speed on the major file sharing sites! 512kbps is already more than enough for internet surfing. We only require the fast speed because we want to download stuffs from internet. TMNet is a cheater - on one hand it is offering you faster speed but on the other hand it is throttling your download speed to 5kbps! You're worst off in the end since you are now bound by contract for 24 months. That means you cannot change your ISP if you find out their trick subsequently without having to pay a hefty penalty! Looking at TMNet's present offer, it looks like their hidden main intention is not so much as to give you goodies but to bind you with a contract to prevent you from switching to another ISP such as P1Wimax or any others that will come on-stream in the near future. That's the trouble when we have a government that gives out monopoly business to its cronies. They can cheat you and you can't do anything about it! Very good point there. I am still using TMNET because my mom want the unlimited nationwide call, so I just apply the combo and stay with the 512kbps. Perhaps I going to upgrade it since more likely my mom will stick with her unlimited call combo. If I want better connection, I will get other more reliable ISP in the future.

The other day went TM Point (again) at Pandan Indah. This time, they said "Sistem offline, tak boleh upgrade". I was really WTF, waste my time go there only.
