With the latest offer from TIME:
100 Mbps at RM149.00 per month
300 Mbps at RM189.00 per month
500 Mbps at RM299.00 per month
These deals come with the very good D-Link DIR-850L router inclusive of :
Free Installation
Free Cordless Phone

Anyone would be crazy to get IPTV with Astro which demands that you use their Broadband deal or they would not give you IPTV. Astro Broadband deal is:
10 Mbps at RM156.88 per month
20 Mbps at RM209.88 per month
30 Mbps at RM262.88 per month

There is a RM26.50 monthly off Astro SuperPack Plus / SuperPack 1,2,3,4 for Astro IPTV customers.

The TIME deal is so very much better than Astro.

I just called to Astro IPTV to cancel my account.
Reason - I have been calling them for more than 3 weeks and they still can't give an answer whether my internet speed will be upgraded to 100mbps.

I told them they charging me RM156 and I get 10mbps but if I use Time (same internet provider) I pay RM149 for 100mbps.

If you are already out of contract I suggest you also cancel.
After all, if they come out with new package then can still sign up again - some more new Router and decoder.

i waiting for my contract ends on Nov. I been email both Astro & TIME, both saying in discussion for this upgrade but unable to provide the ETA. Reason for not terminate Astro because when sign up again, will tie to another 24 months contract. Hopefully they can finalize within 1 or 2 months.

If your contract is already over my recommendation is to CANCEL Astro.
That way maybe their "in discussion" can end. Nearly one month and still in discussion !

After all, one month later can still subscribe back and they give you new equipment/ free one month and maybe by then cheaper with better internet speed.

Nothing to lose except maybe one month no Astro.

will they lock us for another 24 months?

Hello Astro IPTV,

I am still waiting for your response regarding the Time 100mbps upgrade. May we know when it will happen on all lines?

i doubt they will upgrade as astro iptv also has same package with maxis but maxis unable to provide 100mbps like what TIME did. so dont think it will happen.

I wrote a complain to MCMC complaining on unfair business practice and excessive "profiteering" by Astro.
You should to.
Astro replied that they are coming out with a new package on broadband.
I did not accept their reply and cc. A copy to MCMC repeating on unfair/ unethical business practice.

sure.. will write in later...

i email to TIME yesterday asking if I terminate my AstroIPTV (under TIME) and move to TIME fibre. Eventually they said I will be considered as a new subscriber and 24 months contract is applicable. So sad..

As per zerko suggestion, I wrote in to MCMC yesterday noon and this morning Astro CS call up to talk about this matter. As usual, they unable to provide the timeline on the upgrade as their discussion and approval will take time. At the meantime, Astro offers to activate the free preview for all channels starting today until my contract end. Astro did not offer free preview for all channels after few emails flying around until I complaint to MCMC. So the rest who having the same issue suggest to lodge a complaint to MCMC.

Just cancel and resubscribe. Don't see any issue with 24 months contract. I purposely cancel my line and re-subscribe a new line to get the free 1TB External HDD promo previosly. Can get free new modem and router somemore. LOL

It's not like there's anything better in Malaysia.... laugh.gif

will cancel once contract ended. although astro activate all channels for free, but still not satisfied because of getting 10mb rather than 100mb.
