Here is possibility TM is pulling fibre optics cable but I cannot confirm that this is fibre optic cable or just a normal phone wire.


you can search in google with this
pulling fiber optic cable

Its really looks similar like pulling fiber optic cable.

Few months ago, I was submitted a request for Unifi in Sandakan to MCMC through Aduan SKMM.
Few weeks later, a Malay girl who was called from TM and told me that currently Sandakan don't have unifi. However, she added up, they will begin to install unifi after 6 months. Which mean is next year at 2016. I can't confirm whether this is true.

I was just noticed Sandakan at some Taman-taman area such as Taman Tyng, Taman Wemin, Taman Lucky, Taman Pertama and Taman Tshun Ngen already got Unifi. Now I just hoping that Unifi will comes to Taman Utama too. Since all that Unifi areas are located at Mile 5. I hope Unifi will available at Taman Utama as soon as I will moved to my new house (Taman Utama) at next year.

I just hope I can subscribe 30mbps for RM179 per month package as soon as I move to my new house later.

my house is located just behind St. Monica primary school there. Its landed house.

No, but last time I got make report to MCMC. TM got reply me by phone. They say Sandakan will got unifi by next year damn its true. At least got unifi at some taman at mile 5.

Actually at this year, I got make 2 complaints to MCMC. First one of course is Unifi availability in Sandakan. Second is poor Digi coverage in Sandakan. Since TM and Digi are care about my complaints because I am making report directly to MCMC. Now Sandakan already begin to serve unifi and 4G at many areas. My iPhone is now in LTE mode. Used to be 3G last time before I made complaint to MCMC. Since Digi got call me back at August, they say they are upgrading satellites tower. At May of this year, I got make complaint about Unifi availability to MCMC, few weeks later, a Malays girl who comes from TM and call me, she said Sandakan soon will got Unifi after 6 months. during that time, is about June of this year. So after 6 months is next year January. I use my Taman Utama address to make report during that time, so I guess Unifi should be arrived to Taman Utama at next year.

Where is your area? Taman Utama? I think next year Taman Utama 100% confirm will have Unifi. Since common sense, Taman Tyng is just the opposite of Giant and Giant is located at IJM Land. Then Taman Utama is belong to IJM Land. That's confirmed that Taman Utama will has Unifi at next year. Not only Taman Utama but Unifi will soon expand till mile 4. Since in Sandakan here the main Taman-Taman with middle to high income are located at mile 5 until mile 6. They will concentrate on the middle to high income families first because Unifi is not served for low income families since the price is not cheap also.

hahahhaha
if they want to install that white boxes, they just need few days only. Now they are still pulling the fiber optic cable at underground around that area. Pulling cable need to take long time to complete.

this video was taken by me at last year. unifi may soon expand widely to whole Sabah but not just KK and Sandakan in some small area.

Can't believe that you are living in city only has 1mbps??? I'm living at Sandakan Batu 9 rural area, already got 4mbps. Soon I will no longer living at Batu 9, its time for getting ready to enjoy unifi soon.

Sure you can complaint directly to CFM or MCMC. CFM is an organizer under MCMC. Usually I will just head to MCMC directly. Since last time I claim warranty for my iPhone 6 Plus was also complaint to them. Just complaint Digi kaw kaw until they scare about me already haha.

Just complaint at http://aduan.skmm.gov.my
Click on the "New Complaint" at the right side of that portal.

Got chance too since that condo are all belongs to Taman Utama. Mine is Sri Lagenda Villa at Phase 6 of Taman Utama.

At least to wait until here to update

Just now I just check the unifi coverage in Sandakan, some of the places were removed from the availability list. So sad that Taman Tyng was became unavailable again. Another new area was added which is bandar maju, the shop area of TMpoint Sandakan.

I was saw one of this at outside of my house too at mile 9, Jalan Labuk since after I saw several technicians pulling a blue cable from the underground at last year.

There have two types of unifi boxes. First one is big white box on the ground, second one is small white box hang on a pole.

Is there anyway to request for unifi coverage if my area don't have unifi?
anything like fill in a form, leave down a waiting list etc.

Good news, for those who are living in Taman Bukit Saujana, 88400 Likas KK here. I was just went back to my home just now and saw a TM technician was pulling a fiber optic cable through the behind of my house. They just hang the fiber optic cable on the pole, another technician was pulling the cable at another side. Confirmed is fiber optic cable with its yellow-black stripe. Sorry for my poor camera, I don't dare to walk forward there to take camera since the technician was working at there.

I was reported once before to MCMC for Unifi coverage at last year December. TM was also called me and apology for Unifi unavailability at my house area at last time. I really can't imagine how soon they take action to install fiber optic cable at my house area now. Same like last year when I report Unifi unavailability at Sandakan. I was last reported to MCMC with my Mile 5 Taman Utama Sandakan address. Soon, they are now already installed fiber optic cable mostly at Mile 5 area.

TM only install the fiber optic cable base on demand just what I read from the posts above. They won't simply install the cable unless there have someone stand out to complaint. The most effective way to request for Unifi coverage at your home area is to report your Unifi demand directly to MCMC. They will pass your complaint to TM after a week and TM will reply for your complaint within a month.

You can try to report your difficulty to MCMC if you really want to use Unifi at your home.

Another good news for those who are living in Taman Aman/Taman Bunga Raja, Sri Borneo, Iramanis, Bukit Saujana KK Likas/Kelombong area.
I saw 2 TM pondok were set up for registration near my house at outside there. I go forward and ask the salesman. They are offering free installation now. The actual price for wiring is RM200 but now is free 15 meter. Soon Unifi will on service at next month. Since I was just upgraded my home streamyx to 8mbps and worry about the 1 year contract exist. I was asked him, if I was just upgraded my home streamyx to 8mbps at few months ago, can I upgrade again to Unifi again? He say no problem. Besides that, the guy say, since unifi cable is different from streamyx. They cannot just upgrade, they need to terminate my streamyx in order to install a new cable to my house. If I want to keep my current phone number, I have to add up RM1 extra phone rental fee in my future unifi billing.

Guys who are living at these area please go out to the pondok now. One is near the roadside of Taman Bunga Raja, another one is near the junction area of Taman Sri Borneo.

streamyx may discontinue gradually in the future until they successfully advise all of the existing streamyx users convert to unifi.

Bro, just be patience. You no need to worry about the registration matter. When you area soon has Unifi available, the TM will come to set up few booths at the roadside. You can go forward to fill up the form. If better, bring along a copy of front and back side IC. Their phone quality is bad, the sales keep called me for resend him my IC due to blur images. So if you provide them a copy of your IC, so they no need to keep ask you to whatsapp them IC over and over again.

Usually

Sure got port don't worry. I was saw my area here, the TM came to set up booths at last month for whole week. After that, I thought they already not coming again. However, they come again at this month. Just at last week, a TM booth set in front of my house. I went back to home then the TM sales yelling and asking me for Unifi registration. I replied him, I filled up the form already. Actually, TM is more aggressive and wishes you to sign up for their service because they are invested a huge billion of ringgit to install those fiber optic cable. They are now keep grabbing more new users, first they need to earn your money, second their salesmen and saleswomen want to earn commission.

Another reason that I can confirm Unifi sure got port. Actually not all households wish to upgrade their internet. I saw that many of them are still using streamyx 1mbps. Some of them even just using mobile data. They just thought that mobile data is more than enough for them to surf internet and browse facebook. Since TM come to set up a booth in front of my house, I got notice that nobody come to fill up the form. The sales just sit at there for whole afternoon plus the hot weather under the sun there. I knew that most of the households already filled the registration form at last month so nobody come to register. Means that there still got many empty Unifi port ready to serve all the houses.
