QUOTE(b00n @ Mar 26 2010, 09:59 AM) To answer your query, the topic was merged because there's an earlier topic on "Rants" created by Roxygal: No prob mate And since this topic was created later in regards to "rants" also although of different nature (capping vs slowness/connectivity); I decided to merge it together. Maybe it's my mistake for doing that, but I see too many similar topics around (was clearing couple topics in regards to HSBB). Anyway, thanks to wKkay who rectified the situation.  Thx to wkkay for clearing it up as well. Splitting up a merge topic isn't easy normally  Appreciate the effort.Added on March 26, 2010, 12:14 pm QUOTE(Matrix @ Mar 26 2010, 10:23 AM) The Star also highlight the capped issue: Looks like our facebook page had some effect http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=...0663&sec=nation PETALING JAYA: After the excitement of Telekom Malaysia unveiling UniFi, its high-speed broadband service that offers Internet speeds of up to 20 megabits per second (Mbps), the bubble burst for many consumers here. Some are disappointed over what they feel are expensive charges for the packages for home users: RM149 for 5Mbps, RM199 for 10Mbps, and RM249 for 20Mbps. In Singapore, a 1Gbps (gigabit per second) service – which is five times the speed of a 20Mbps connection – only costs about RM200. But the real disappointment is the realisation that the UniFi packages have a cap on the amount of data that can be downloaded. The consumers bristled when they learned that the 5Mbps service is capped at 60GB of data per month. The 10Mbps service is capped at 90GB while the 20Mbps service has a 120GB cap. They were even more disappointed to learn that the data download caps are calculated on a daily basis. Consumers were further horrified to learn that if they exceeded their daily download limit, their high-speed broadband connections would be throttled down to about 10% of the purchased speed. Telekom Malaysia CEO Datuk Zamzamzairani Mohd Isa said at a press conference to announce the UniFi pricing yesterday that the measures were part of its Fair Usage Policy. “This policy is a standard industry practice to ensure that all subscribers get to enjoy the same web surfing quality,” he said. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak launched UniFi at the Dataran Merdeka in Kuala Lumpur on Wednesday night.  This post has been edited by silverhawk: Mar 26 2010, 12:14 PM |

So if you don't use it for some time, then your daily cap is "wasted"Price is considered "affordable" you you compare with existing streamyx packages. I am not saying that I am totally satisfied with the pricing (who does not want to pay less) but I think is not as big an issue as the CAP. |

Which is why I take the Combo package 384kbps + free telephone calls for only RM70. The lowest package of is always the best one because it is the closest you can get FULL speed on what u pay for all the time.

This is getting dumber as time goes by.
Monthly cap.......I'm OK with that. Daily cap..........NO. Daily cap that got deducted even when I am not using the line.........HELL NO. Daily cap that got deducted even when I am not using the line + high price.............. F*** YOU. It seems TM is working harder to come up with T&C that piss off its customers than T&C that pleases its customers. |
