Wow. Finally got my Streamyx today. My fixed line was installed last Monday, but nobody call me after over a week. Call to those TMPOINT or 100 number all useless. Said they'll call me back, but never did. So finally, i stormed TMPOINT DU with guns blazing and rocket lauching yesterday...threatened them to burn down the shop if they don't get it fix for me pronto...
...okok.......
I exageratted a bit.
Anyway, i make a hell lot of noise there, those incompetent TMFOOLS for some reason misplaced my Application Form (according to one noob looking staff there)...somemore said the form is with one of the staff and she/he is 'resting' and can't be found. WTF!! That is your problem! Not mine!! Then another equally incompetent TMFOOL came and ask me about my old line..which i already have CANCELLED 3 TIMES (Once at Celcom(it's a Home,Hop,Awat package), twice at this idiot branch itself). Luckily he didn't ask me to fill up another termination form or i'll HAVE HIM TERMINATED.
Finally, one senior looking dude came over and help out these bunch of useless noobies. At least, he knows how to handle customer. Promised me he'll call me the same day. I told him make sure to call me or i'll come looking for him. Yesterday, after 6pm, the guy only call me. But i was driving, so i told him to SMS the contractor mobile no to me. But he never did. I was thinking to send to nuke to the TMPOINT DU the next day, luckily for him, some malay lady called up after 8pm(yes 8pm!! You see, if you don't blast them kaw-kaw,they never do any work.).
Today i called the contractor, unfortunately, it seems my job is to be handle by another contractor, thankfully, this guy is very prompt and send me an SMS for contact detail to the right person. (But he still got the name of this guy wrong). Anyway, this guy is very prompt and arrived at my place slightly after 12pm. And the things is settled. Unfortunately, i tried to coax him to cap the ADSL port higher, but he refused and gave me excuses like line not stable or can only work in Condo and not landed house. I look at my SNR and Line Attenuation and it rates at about 32db and 29db respectively, which is considered excellent!
I initially thought to belanja him 100plus, but since he won't do the higher cap for me...i took back my drinks...muahahahaha!!
So now my speed is about 3.5Mbps....okler, it's more than 3 times faster than my previous 1Mbps line. Maybe i complain later to TM....haha.
