every year-end got this problem, kinda cliche don't you think. 

another way to throttle is progressively...

for example for a 2mb line, once reached
15GB... 90% of international speed
25GB... 80% of international speed
35GB... 70% of international speed.
45GB... 60% of international speed.
55GB-100GB... 40% of international speed.
>100GB... RM5 per GB (still 40%)

anything less than 40% of international speed would be too low for a house that uses a 2mb line for a whole family...
so this is where the RM2 per GB should come in... or... just keep it at 40%... until they cross a high mark (unlikely) of 100GB... then start the RMx per GB

then for a 1mb line, throttling the international speeds too much will cause the line to be unusable for household more than 1 user... hence for this package,
15GB... 95% of international speed
25GB... 90% of international speed
35GB.... 80% of international speed
45GB.... 70% of international speed
55GB.... RM 2 per GB (still 70%)

55GB of international is quite alot for 1Mbps (i think, for my usage)... it's about 1.8GB a day... is about 75MB per hour... but i doublt people will online 24 hours, if you are, for the reason of pirating something, then, well, u'll suffer, which is the point

... so if you make it 12 hrs... it will be 150MB of international traffic per hour for 12hours of online time a day... for 30 days in a month. If you make it 6 hour online a day in a month... u will get 300MB per hour before you start payin...

... do note that this is international and excluding local CDN stuff like youtube...

somethin like that...
it also follows "u pay more u get more" ideology..
and also...the more u troll the bandwidth...the more we'll take it away from you...
and yes, *we pay for unlimited*
it's just advertising terms. if petrol company says "unleash the full power of your engine", it doesnt mean if your engine is capable of producing 150hp will produce 150hp when using that petrol... same for TM i guess... they have defined "unlimited" as unlimited time.

Same goes to all that Shampoo products that reduce dandruff, that can actually rebond (straighten your hair) as shown in their ads on TV... if it does for you, great. If it doesnt, well...

anyways TM will do this one way or another i guess...

this way, TM gets to save bandwidth w/o affecting average users much
moderately heavy users will be slightly affected
heavy users will be affected
hoggers will suffer

Im not sure what you guys think about this.
But i give you a simplest form.

The bandwidth itself doesn't necessarily cost money (if you own the network entirely), but there is a cost to setup & maintain the network in terms of equipment & expertise, and that cost must be passed onto users of the network & the amount you use the connection should dictate how much each user should need to pay. measuring how much bandwidth a customer uses is a fair way to distribute your costs across the customer base.

So like Malaysia to Singapore, 10Gbps connection do cost money.
1. Setup cost.
2. Employee cost.
3. Equiment cost.
4. Data center cost.
5. Many others.....

Most of the ISP's customers are hogging bandwidth that have no limitations of downloads then sooner rather then later the ISP is going to need more bandwidth. 

The reason becoz they put caps, they doesnt need to buy more bandwidth and allow more users to subscribe, so its all depends isp want to earn how much from users by the lump sump bandwidth they pay, the submarine cable the joint venture with others company, peer to peer to malaysia to singapore, malaysia to thailand...

All this is cost.

instead more response from TM would better.. it like one-sided information here.. we talk among our self but no response from TM itself

how would we know what on their mind before we start give our own opinion
it like playing a game of dart throwing but with no dart board to throw at

back to agenda. IF tm is reading this. it really unfair for few individual to do a crime but whole community is punish for that.
Yes i label it as a crime the injustice TM is doing to punish everyone just for a few individual who abuse their line.

another example is like a few robber rob a bank but the whole neighborhood is reprimanded for investigation and punishment. You are a multinational company, your image is priority. Doing this does not improve your image seriously. What for u have management to run your promotion and services while in the back your are doing stuff making customer unhappy with you. Like wise again, your current FUP automatically handle those abuser. Then handle those abuser while the normal one is left alone. It that too much to ask or demand ? Why must until the level where even normal user have to face similar jurisdiction which is imposed on the abuser.

Another on the agenda, i read about unifi 60GB per-month and 2GB per-day usage until finish the 60GB monthly quote. I have to ask from where u get your management and IT employees ? It is from some kampung university or from oversea. Let take a simple example, you are given a monthly ration of 30kg of rice. Then the authorities ( TM ), say u can only take 1KG of rice perday until 30days instead of 30kg straight.  It all green when everyone is at home and no extra ppl is included. So how when no one is at home. The 1KG of rice can just throw away ? Or when there extra guests. 1kg of rice shared ? each person only get one spoon full of rice only. Seriously have you even considered that ?    Many ISP around the world, just give a monthly quote and how you you it is up to you. Extra you pay simple as that.

So TM want to be the first ISP company that implement monthly quote and a daily quote on same package ? Being 1st in good stuff is ok.. Being first in not good stuff is a huge no no.

So TM please do some justice by punishing only the criminal not everyone. You already have most of us bonded with the contract and yet we no complain. But when problem crop out, we cant just sit down and watch you do whatever you want. Surprisingly other ISP bond you for 1month to 1 year. TM is 2 years.. i dunno why.

So FUP now is a verb.
