That's the price we pay for supporting a monopoly!

changed to super pack 1 just now. monthly price will be rm 125 plus tax = rm 132.50
i ask the astro cs many times about the hd fees and she told me it is all included in the rm 125, means no rm 20 hd fees, she also told me i can record using an external hd.

before this my package is 2 mini+movies+sports+family is rm 105+hd fee rm 20 so total is rm 125 plus tax.

now the monthly fees is the same but i get 3 mini + movies + sports + mustika + abo tayangan hebat + recording using external hd and hd service.

what u guys think ? i also ask the astro cs when will this promotion expire and she told me there's no expiry date

For me if I opt for SP2 its cheaper now ! I wl pay 137.95 for Sports,Movie , 3 Mini,, ABO TT,Maharaja and Mustika plus HD/PVR services.

why is the Chinese SuperPack priced higher than the Malay & Indian SuperPack ?

I just called Astro CS to subscribe the Super Pack.
I asked the lady when will the new HD channels, for example Discovery HD World be available and she told me they started this channel on 1st June.
But I am already a Learning Package subscriber (plus HD service), and they never give me this channel, only change to new package offering can get this!

Thats right,they told me activation is Instant but I wonder wld all new channels be on air now or 11th july ! I forgot to ask that.......someone here knows ?

The New Pricing Calculator is available now...

Hi smileguy, actually the lady told me it was started on 1st June...
Those Learning Mini Package subscriber do not get this channel 571, unless switch to their new package lineup..

Don't if I'm stupid or the lady? I previously subscribed to 2 Mini Packages, now my Super Pack offer 3 Mini Packages,
and she never ask me which additional Mini Package to add. When I called back minutes ago, another guy act like they cannot change for me.
They automatically gave me News but I rather prefer Variety lar...
Now the guy said the lady will call me back...

How much are the fees ?

Astro CS says the new HD channels (Sundance & Discovery) will start on 11 July 2011.
May not be wise to upgrade now ;-)

Why new pricing calculator - Price is different with Package 3?

Package 3 = Family+3Mini+Sport+Plus Package = RM94.9 before GST
If I using the package price calculator per astro = RM109.9 before GST
Remark: I am taking new Emperor for plus package.

Anybody know?

Someone said , I think azrin Kiko, earlier here .....RM300 I think !

I called and the CS says FREE installation (unless need to change cabling from dish to B.yond decoder)
RM100 additional (one-time) if you want to upgrade from B.yond decoder to B.yond PVR decoder.

The new Pricing Calculator is for the new pricing which Astro will charge beginning 11 July 2011...
