idk. i did that statement to actually ask u back.

yet, i hv been offered the same thing...
still, i dont understand why they chose me to be their home fibre customer?
to be a scapegoat in the future?


here's the excerpt they sent via email..


We’d like to make you an unbeatable offer exclusive to existing Maxis customers. Sign up for Maxis Home Fibre Internet for only RM158/month * and get:
- Your first 3 months subscription for free (worth up to RM654, depending on the package)
- Free standard installation worth RM200
- Vouchers worth RM480 (RM20 x 24 months) redeemable for selected Maxis products or services

That’s over RM1,000 worth of savings, if you sign now!

Plus, there are also further savings every month of RM105:
- 400 minutes of FREE calls on your Home line to all Maxis mobile numbers (worth RM40)
- 100 minutes of FREE calls on your Maxis mobile line to all Maxis mobile numbers (worth RM15)
- 100 minutes of FREE international calls (worth at least RM50)

With such monthly savings, it makes sense! More speed, more functionality for less.

Same offer as us.
I think they select a lot of the maxis postpaid customer to enjoy this offer.
And they are trying to get more customer over unifi. My wife's sister receive same offer by mail and it state the offer end by 31 march (i receive sms).
Both of us is maxis postpaid customer.

If without this offer, i think i already sign for unifi already, luckily they send me the offer just in time.
Nice marketing strategy.

yes, i'm postpaid customer as well..

i do have interest to subscribe this, and they also state that this offer is up to end of march ( marketing strategy spot on)

initially i'm thinking of unifi as well, but when this comes into the pix, i'm reconsidering my options.

i'm a heavy downloader, that's why i'm a bit hesitated to buy this offer...the cap set is low.
and as per their site, says that filesharing is not recommended....wth

Currently no quota, but when quota apply to maxis ftth, 60gb is same with unifi. Isn't it?
No cap for streamyx but throttled. That's the reason i change to fiber.

yup. the quota is as the same as screamyx. cap is not exercised yet, i think.
but when it comes into action, i wonder ler..

i would definitely buy this offer if :

1) there's an affordable fee or FOC to lift the cap
2) can dl using filesharing sites : torrent or premium acc.

such things will never happen, i reckon?

No choice, i crying for streamyx already. last year i subscribe VPN to by pass throttled speed.
And vpn not cheap, so prefer to pay for fiber and get better speed, if quota apply. Then don't download that much lol.

i) unlimited calls to Maxis fixed line number ... hmmm how many out there has em ?
ii) 500 mins per month to Maxis mobile number ... I'm almost sure that its bout RM0.15 - RM0.20 to cross networks on a 30 secs block
iii) 200 minuts per month to US, Singapore, China or Hong Kong ... thats like RM20 bucks cuz per min call is at 0.10 to these locations.

and Unifi leased lines to Maxis FTTH under wholesale agreements

However, I heard that Maxis gonna launch their IPTV real soon with a number of good channels.

"and Unifi leased lines to Maxis FTTH under wholesale agreements "

my house(condo) did not use VDSL or telephone port like unifi , maxis is using its owned infra prevly i also want to install unifi but port infra finished so i take maxis.

Unifi and Maxis deals covers mainly the housing estate whereas MTU ( Multi Tenanted Units ) like condos and appartments are provision directly by Maxis. Main reason is that its cheaper to place active equipments in the MDF room and then deploy to multiple points using copper / fibre then erecting outdoor cabinets and placing equipment there.

How good is this Maxis Home for Subang area say apartment area?

i called and ask them regarding the subscription free 3 months promotion..
they knw nothg bout it...

My unifi contract is going to end in another 6 months. Is it possible to switch to Maxis Home fiber from Unifi after that?

Hi all,
I live in Condo, may I know if I want Maxis FTTH, does it need to drill hole for the fiber optic to come in to my unit? Or it uses VDSL?

Thanks
