In case I was not clear, in my example, the base package price is RM90.You have to pay that minimum.  Each additional 50Gb you want, you pay RM30 on top of the base price. So there is no RM30 package.

Reasons for doing this way could be:

1. they are serious about increasing broadband usage in the country.
2. they want fair usage for all users
3. they want to curb online piracy
4. they want to ensure less network congestion
5. they can earn more from heavier users (ie pay per usage method) and hopefully improve their network or international link capacity. As time passes, they can even consider increasing the quoatas depending on how much capacity they have

Are the caps even confirmed?

Why did TM postpone the price release last night? was it like when PM saw the price and say OMG this is too high, lower the price or my relatives wont let me off the hook if i announce this price

It would be nice if this was the case )

if tm announce the price that night, sure people straight away condemn PM and someone will shout somewhere in the crowd "i will not vote BN in next GE!" XD

You know what. If DIGI is given a license to implement fixed line, i bet we can achieve almost similar package pricing like our neighbour Singapore in 5 years time!!

TM monopolized the market together with UMNO....no competition, that is why they're free to charge as they like.

And yet some people think what TM charging is "reasonable".....this country really has no hope with people all brainwashed by UMNO 50 years of dictatorship.

they only do condo biz

the problem now is the capped limit they provide us. like others existing broadband services like maxis n celcom. they have a capped bandwidth limit. this is why im sticking to my streamyx with unlimited download bandwidth even though its not so reliable. im a heavy internet user myself. i download a lot. n i dont think they should include the iptv in the package. because not everyone own a hdtv.

The sales representative told me that the bandwidth will not be throttled once you go over your cap. Instead, you will be given bandwidth overage charges which means for every GB you go over your limit, you will have to pay an additional fee.

The actual overage charge rate is still unknown.
