Thanks for sharing your experience. I would like to supervise the rectification work as well but I can't leave my office so easily and they finish work at 5pm. The guy at the Project Management office said it will take at least 30 days to complete the work.

Did you or your friend check when they will start their repair work? Like which day they will be working on your friend's unit or a schedule or sorts. If I decide to do a surprise check and ended up seeing no one would be a waste of time and effort.

I don't mind chatting up with the workers. Would bring them drinks too if I know they will be there.
*
They do work on weekends so it may be beneficial if you drop by then and yes, they are obliged to complete the rectification works within a 30 days period window but I wouldn't rush them however I wouldn't also give them all the time in the world. At the end of the day, it's all about managing time.

Once they started working on your unit, they will complete it before moving to another. My friend's started about one week after the defect list was filed. They have separate teams doing separate things though. So, you cannot expect the guys who do skim coats to replace the wall plugs or tiles for you.

to be fair, although the developer did a bad job but the follow up team has been so far great. they have been attentive and is very willing to do everything that has been asked for.

unlike some developers i have encountered, their rectification team is snobbish as shi-

for what it's worth, i think the property is a good buy for people who bought it back then however if you intend to buy it right now then i considered it on the pricey side but hey, it's on top of the hill.

also i think that there is a very big chance that there will be a new road open leading straight out to KESAS through the housing area at the end of the site.

Mine is block B. So far there are minor minor defect. I think its acceptable given the fact that I've seen some even worst defect.
At least the guard and people there are quite friendly and attentive.

My view is sunway view, and I noticed that my unit you can get full view from sunway to PJ to KL. Yes. you can see KLCC.

But the only thing is immediately below your unit, you can also see the factories, the kubur
*
Yeah, the factories and the cemetery is quite a turn off. One can only hope that with the remaining housing projects already substantiated there will cause the local council to relocate the factory, the cemetery however is rather difficult.

My friend's unit is facing Atmosfera so it's quite decent.

where will we get the exact drawing and measurement of our units? wanted to go for interior designer ....

you can extract the layout plan together with the measurements from the appendix to your Sale and Purchase Agreement. your interior designer should be able to cook up a design with that.

Not sure what search criteria you entered but I can still see Zefer in the coverage list.
I searched through HERE

My wife already registered for unifi 30mbps to be installed in November smile.gif
*
Actually, I did a search 3 weeks ago through the same site you provided and Zefer was listed as covered and so I applied but UNIFI only got back to me after i have called them a thousand times to check the status and guess what, a female UNIFI customer service operator called me at 7:00pm and told me they cannot provide the installation now because there's something wrong with the hub station or something, I need to wait for at least three (3) months before I can apply again -.-

Yalo. Because of these investors who push up the price and effected those real buyers who really wish to own a house become unaffordable.
*
It's not so much of these investors that are artificially pumping up the prices of real estates but rather the real estate agents. The higher the selling price, the higher their commission will be but though it may seem tyrannical in an aspect, what these real estate agents are doing is actually good. If they priced the real estate at a higher margin, the price point acts like a sift to sift out undesirable buyers.

Seriously?! My wife registered the unifi 30mbps package and set the installation date for November. Everything went ok (it was during a TM roadshow in MidValley). Hopefully they don't screw us over.

Just an update, some of the residents already have working internet in their units while some have service disruptions still. Bad cable management maybe?
*
Yeap. Fingers crossed that TM don't screw you over because I've been screwed by them for one too many times. Keep us updated though.

I move in on end July and the relocation of Maxis Fiber (using backbone of Unifi) which took them (TM ppl) to come 3 times (about 2 months) time only got it done.

1st of the time the TM ppl said the relocation can't be finished because of their equipment got problem as you mention. That time I'm also being told no new installation can be done irregardless whether you register under Unifi or Maxis.

2nd time they said the port of the equipment of my unit spoil  cry.gif  and took them another 2 weeks to settle it. They also blame my unit fiber cable have problem and complain to management office. 2 days later the contractors who send by our management office check & confirm there is nothing wrong with the cable at all.

3rd time....I'm being advice by Maxis to inform management office to get the contractor to stand by when the TM guy come for the installation. It is to avoid the TM ppl pushing the ball to our management again. And finally........got it settle on mid of Sep which is the 3rd installation
*
WOW! that's some very interesting experience you have been through XD

Anyway, updates from my end. Manage to get myself registered for an installation on 24/10/2015. Wanted to register online so that I can enjoy that first month fee waiver but encountered the same error no matter how many times i tried. It says the package selected is not available for my location. It's only a VIP5 and not VIP30/50 rclxub.gif

Got fed up, walked into the nearest TM centre and signed up.

So, no first month fee waiver. I can overlook that so as long as after installation, the line doesn't F*** me up like how the customer service did.

By the way, how's your connection speed there, decent and stable?

I wanted to give Maxis a try initially because I'm already on UNIFI but after much inquiries, their support staffs confirmed to me that Zefer Hill was not within their coverage yet. They replied through Twitter and so, I gave up.

Then again, the fact and their info seems to be contradicting. I'm starting to wonder if Maxis did not brief their support staffs enough on their actual coverage area.

I face the similar situation as well cause earlier I had give them the old postcode number (47100) for that area. Just search it with postcode 47170 & Jalan Pipit 4 or Zefer Hills Residence would able to give you the result. According to Maxis, they will able to provide the same service as long as it show at Unifi website that the area/building have the coverage
*
Yeap, 47170 is the new postcode for the area.

Apparently, MAXIS has been giving contradictory answers to each and everyone. I got a resounding No when I made my inquiries. Oh well, their lost.

Got my UNIFI installed last week

Any problems with the Unifi installation?

The TM operator told me they need to do some setup/installation in the server room before setting up the network in my unit. True?
*
The installation went smoothly with no hiccups.

Yes, it's normal if you live in a stratified property, the TM contractor will need to drop by the main server room to do some configuration before heading up to your parcel to complete the installation but those are their concern. Just make sure they come at the time when the Management is still open because the keys to the main server room is with the Management.

The only problem I now have is that I cannot stream HyppTV simply because HyppTV requires "wired LAN connection" from the router to the box itself and the router is currently placed near the DB box because that's where the LAN connection ports are located. For this setup, if i insist on using the HyppTV box then I will have to drag a cat 5 LAN cable all the way from the dry kitchen to the living hall.

Alternatively, you can replace the existing telephone wall jack (near the television wall) with an Ethernet wall jack and then plug your wireless router there, With that distance, you can safely connect the HyppTV box with the wireless router without having to expose any wires on the floor.

To me, replacing the jacks will be too much a hassle and doesn't really bring much benefit to me since I'm getting Chromecast. I'll just cast everything straight from my laptop. HyppTV service doesn't justify the hoo-haa.

OH! i should get my VIP30 upgrade by Friday =)

by then, i should have buffer-less streaming. not that i experienced them alot with my current VIP5.

Great to hear you found a workaround for your connection issue smile.gif

I thought each unit comes with a phone line and LAN port point in the living room area? If it doesn't then credit goes to my contractor for adding the LAN port point in the living room.

I have my Unifi up and VIP30 speed is a beast! For streamers and torrent-ers of course tongue.gif But sometimes I still get buffering on a football replays site.

Oh, I just moved in on 30 Oct, Friday. Hello, neighbor! wave.gif
*
Well, they don't =/ In fact, I was surprised when I went over to the Management Office and they told me they don't provide and install LAN wall jacks. My previous Management Office provides this for a nominal fee of RM20.00. The funny thing was this, my previous condominium wasn't "Fibre Optic Ready" whilst this was. The least I expected of them was for them to provide this but the don't =(

I remembered though how everyone complained about the location of the DB Box but I guess for my case, I managed to turned the frown upside down =) The cabinet built around it helps to conceal all the wires rather than having it lay around the living hall.

Haha, yeah! VIP30 is amazing. It was so fast compared to VIP5 that now, I don't know what to do with it XD

I believed those football replay sites are hosted in servers which has limited streaming speeds that's why even when we have 30Mpbs, if their streaming speed is capped at 10Mpbs, we cannot get the best out of our VIP 30 =)

By the way, welcome!! Which unit are you? Block A or B?

Just got HyppTV fixed yesterday. Smooth streaming so far.

I'm on Block A. Hope we can meet when everything is settled down.

Surprised to hear about the break-in news last week sweat.gif

Great to hear you have everything set up nicely. Did you stream HyppTV wirelessly or through the cable? I heard someone complained that despite having VIP30, they HyppTV was stuttering.

I'm sure we'll meet someday. Are you organizing an open house anytime soon? Oh! did you move in with your family?

Are you referring to the one where the fire engines came too?

Do you know what happened actually? I only saw some people hanging around the sloping area between the main road and our fence. Hearsay there are 4 thieves in total and they only 2 was caught.

I dunno why they still focus develop in kinrara area, dont they study about the area first  congested and traffic there? build road first then develop the area..

Malaysia's government is always like that. Do first then think later.

Let the area gets fully occupied and then study their driving behavior and which routes usually the drivers take and then erect toll booths to collect tolls. If they develop the road now and toll booths later, the government will get scolding.

Win-win to them. They can collect toll money under the false pretense that they are alleviating the traffic congestion people are facing and the people won't complain. By right, like you said, you should study the area first before approving projects. Alleviating traffic congestion was already their first step in the book but they moved it to the last chapter.

HyppTV was connected via cable. Smooth so far. Wouldn't want to try wireless at all.

Yup, moved in with my wife and mother in law. No plans for an open house at the moment. If you have one do invite the whole block eh? tongue.gif

Yaa.. Couldn't believe even the bomba needs to be involved. Apparently it happened to a unit in block A. What I heard was 1 got caught (the guy who jumped into the ditch and need bomba to get him up. lol) the rest escaped. Happened around 5.15PM according to my contractor.
*
:haha: I don't think I'll do an open house for the entire block, I'll do one, eventually but just for very close friends only because as ironic as I may sound, I moved here to avoid people so that I can live in peace :haha: my previous condominium was overly occupied that there's no one day I failed to see someone in the lift and they cannot stop chatting with me early in the morning. I am very cranky in the morning XD but i'll invite you when I do =P

I think it's an insider job. Maybe some workers from a contractor because who else would know which unit is occupied and which is not? Unless they are well versed with the premise otherwise no one would know how to get up to the individual floors without the owner's consent.

I'm sure all these nonsense will stop once people starts moving in.

Just wondering is this issue solve now after VP for quite sometime d?

I still hear from some people that their units are leaking rain water from the window panes but those are most probably caused by the improper silicone sealant applied but other than that, nothing major already but it's quite hard to determine cause I'm not sure about the occupancy rate now. It's still quite low so probably these people don't know even if their units are leaking rain water OR water from the units above.
