I called Astro, they said it is compulssory to take back the old decoder and dish and replace with new one. They said can't keep your old dish and decoder.

No I specifically mentioned to pay RM80 and get new decoder and dish. The girl said no, and then went to consult someone else. She came back and said there is no such thing, she confirmed MUST take back all the old stuff.

You will receive the Astro B.yond Box, a new smartcard, a new outdoor dish unit (ODU), new remote control, and HDMI cables free of charge, on the condition that you return your current Astro box and commit to take up the high definition channels at RM20.00 per month, for a minimum of 12 months, which will allow you to enjoy the high definition channels of the standard definition channels available on your current subscription. If you want to keep your current Astro box, you are required to pay a RM80.00 standard installation fee.

Refer to Astro's reply above.

sometime astro staff don't read their own FAQ, or may be they change their terms without notice rclxub.gif

Yes I mentioned that I read in their website about paying RM80 and keeping old decoder, yet she said no such thing.

Maybe what they meant was they will take back the old satellite dish so that you can't use the old (for the old TV) and new (for another HD TV in another part of the house) together.

the thing is everyting is free, but installation is RM80.

How much will it cost to sign up for Astro B.yond?
The Astro B.yond Box, the remote control, the Outside Dish Unit (ODU), and HDMI cable will be available for free. However, an RM80.00 installation fee will be charged on top of the RM20.00 monthly access fee for the High-Definition channels.

No installation is also free for now, but they will take back the old decoder and dish.
