The idea of zero entry fees is very misleading..

entry fees... isn't that referring to new signups? new entry into streamyx?

if they are making it free for those who are upgrading their account, that isn't new entry anymore..

bleh, trust TM to come up with all these nonsense t&c and we still have to comply cos there's no other landline broadband provider...

anyway, phone or not.. it's not really important to me..

more important is how fast they can activate my line.. my telephone line was installed on saturday, activated on monday.. now waiting for streamyx to activate my account...

so many departments and all are not connected.. even the technician that installed my line also say have to wait patiently as they have to forward all the application to many departments to have it approved...

what an inefficient way of doing things... all because there's no competition.. if got competition, i think within an hour can have everything done..

anyone tried to install the streamyx-in-a-box thing? i couldn't get the tech to come to my place (not in during working hours) thus i collected the streamyx-in-a-box and did the installation myself.

The activation slip says i need to sms in stxactv (login name) to 33535 which i did many times since yesterday and today.. however, i keep getting this message from digi "the service you requested is busy, please try again later".

I called 100 to check and they are also stumped.. any one has any advice?

Finally got my line activated and running.. took 10 days from application of phone line to finally being able to use it.

They capped my line to 1.5mbps and upload 750kbps. I'm on 1mbps.

Speedtest shows 1.4mbps constant speed..

I'd suggest that those who wants to get the blockbuster deal sign up through agents instead of going to TM Point.. I went to TM Point to sign up at first but they told me need to have my line fixed up first before can subscribe to the package.. I'm like, isn't the package supposed to come with telephone line? Aren't they supposed to do the registration all at one place?

In the end fed up with TM point. I signed up with one of the agent here in LYN. His userid is onebroadband and i highly recommend him. Contacted him to sign up on Monday, he sent in the application immediately. The following sat, the Technician came to fix up my telephone line (which took less than 15 mins). Streamyx activation slip was given on Tuesday, i went to see him to collect my modem as i wanted to install it myself instead of waiting for the technician to come again (not at home during office hours during weekdays). Set up the modem, but streamyx wasn't activated yet (their smsing thing to 33535 to activate the account is bullshit.. Keep getting the "Service is busy, please try again" message). 2 phone calls to TMnet resulted in my port being set up the next day and account activated the following day.. As a bonus, they capped my line to 1.5mbps dl. Youtube all works fine.

Btw, here's the link to the agent i used. Contact him directly and see if he can give you his "special offer" smile.gif
