I guess if it is true that Maxis is leasing the bandwidth from TM, they can never offer something cheaper than what TM is offering I suppose...
*
Not true actually. The agreement is such that it is a win-win for both parties.

As for value for money, Maxis has very good offers, such as the RM128 package for 4Mbps and RM158 for 6Mbps, with all the free calls to Maxis mobile numbers and other freebies

it says free unlimited home call, so do I still need to pay for the phone line access fees(25 bucks that is a must every month.. for my current package)??
*
Nope, no such thing as RM25 for phone line access fee. It's just a flat rate of RM118 only and nothing else (assuming you make calls within the FREE minutes quota, which is hundreds of minutes!!!!)

But u have to folk out 500 quite big amount.. Plus registration for maxis.. Cost a bomb
*
RM500 for the termination fees for UniFi is indeed quite a lot. And yes, you would roughly need 16-17 months to cover that. That being said, you will now also get much FASTER speed, free calls to Maxis mobile numbers and BETTER line stability.

Also, there is NO registration fees too. And the installation fees of RM200, has been WAIVED till 30th June 2012. Same goes for the phone deposit of RM75, has been WAIVED till 30th June 2012.

In short, no upfront payment, and only start paying what you are getting (RM118/month) once the line is up and running.... :-)

Thanks for the information! But if quota back to 100GB/month after exceed 100GB what speed will I get for the rest of the month? And I checked that installation need 6-7 hours?
6-7 hours setting everything up at our home? And how everything is going to be? Drilling everywhere(seems stupid question but... I'm quite confuse about where the fibre optics will be installed)??
*
Currently, there is no quota at the moment, so can use as much as you want! :-)
Installation depends on the residential type. If high rise, can be as quick as 30mins. For landed, as quick as 2 hours. The time stated is the maximum time taken, assuming it is really a big property (3 storey bungalow?) There will be some drilling to lay the fibre optic cables for landed, but for high rise, not neccessary.

Deposit wise have to ask the agent.. But I know d installation fee is waived until june (rm200) grab it fast if u want it.. It's better alternative if compare to unifi.. Cheaper n higher speed. With free phone calls some more..
*
No deposit actually.....also waived till 30 June 2012. Or not, the phone deposit fee would be RM75 for Malaysians and RM300 for non-Malaysians.

Yeap, loads of free calls to Maxis mobile numbers and also on the customers Maxis postpaid line itself... :-)

wow... such a great deal for anyone who like to upgrade their existing Internet plan. Btw, can we keep our existing TM phone number if we migrate to Maxis fiber Internet?
*
Unfortunately, that is not possible. The current TM phone line/number has to be terminated and upon registration of Maxis Fibre Home, a new number will be assigned. It will be a local area prefix number (etc: 03-XXXX XXXX) for Klang Valley area.

another 5 months

how is the process like?  Need to go telekom to terminate Unifi and then go apply Maxis FTTH?

If next time got problem with maxis FTTH, call maxis to come fix ?
*
Yes, you would need to walk into the nearest TM Point to terminate UniFi and at the same time, apply for Maxis FTTH. Most of my customers apply such that the termination date coincides with the installation date of Maxis FTTH.

For those that have subscribed to Maxis Home, have you found any need to change the Thomson router, to say a TP-Link or Asus?  A quick glance at the Unifi threads show that changing routers is almost a given.

So, can you change to your own equipment and if you did, what was your experience?  Brands and models and settings used would be helpful to the community.

Would like to share my experience and feedback so far with my Maxis Fibre Home but i'm sure alot of people will say I'm bias since I'm a Maxis employee....

I shall let the others speak then.... :-)

sound enticing. been overpaying broadband/phone bills for too long.
a price war is long long overdue in bolehland.

hope more goodies to come.
but 24 mths contract seems a bit stretch,
*
All fibre cable internet providers have a 24 months contract at the moment and it is standard as the cost to lay out the infrastructure is really quite costly.

More value added goodies will come for sure.... :-)
