Those who already terminated astro service and posted the smartcard to astro to avoid fine, what you do with the decoder and dish?
A. Sell them for RM30 each to Electrical Shop cum astro installer? B. Modify it to receive Thai HD channel or channel from other satelite? C. Just leave it as it is collecting dust or rust. |

I cancelled my Astro back in 2001 and the disk is still sitting on the roof collecting dust... decoder and card still with me in the store room...
3 weeks ago, I also cancelled my father's Astro due to worn out after many years of service and there was no part for old Astro decoder and I was asked to upgrade to Astro Beyond with RM20/month more of which I refused since "wheather proof" problem still exist on Astro Beyond. This round I was asked to return the card to Astro but I ignore it, is it normal that Astro ask the card to be returned after cancellation? I didn't get that back in 2001 when I cancelled mine... |

Yup, over the phone the lady told me Astro Beyond better than the old decoder but not weather proof. That was part of the reason why I cancelled mine a decade ago... Can image after 10 yrs the problem still there and they don't even bother to do extra mile like doing cable TV etc...

QUOTE(ycs @ Dec 17 2011, 09:12 AM) TS, i'll take the dish for rm30 or any other sellers? The current market price is RM30 just for the dish? I thought it's more than that? What will you do with the dish anyway? |
