Learn how to blamethe seller. They make money out of it. Blame consumer? For asking?

The seller is to be blamed, but when you sign up the plan, you should also very well know what you are jumping into, not just 'wa this plan so good I go sign this'. At modern day, there are so many TnC that are used by sellers/merchant at their benefit, so it has also become consumer's responsibility to understand what they would be facing. I am not blaming everyone that is asking stuff, it's just an example of potentially someone clueless and did not even do research asking some question that should be very obvious to all of us.
My main point of saying those, is because there are just too much user openly having discussion about quota, which since last year has already been a known sensitive topics. The senior members here have also warned about it, but before blacktubi closed the thread, there are so much discussion on that, and after reopening the topic, the same group of people are just having the same conversation. needless to say, now, we gotten too much attention and they are enforcing something. I am not blaming everyone here, but I am saying that a small herd killed the whole community

Maxis being a large company on the KLSE has the responsibility to treat their customers ethically, internet is a basic need for education and communication. For them to - with one days notice - cut off the internet for thousands of users forcing them to pay excess amounts is disgusting.
They could of dealt with this in a fair and ethical manner, giving at least some beneficial notice to the consumer but alas they didnt. They screwed us all over knowing that no one can get a fixed line internet in 1 day.
Maybe contractually Maxis is correct in what they did but ethically they are a bunch of dicks who took advantage of us all when there was no need to, other than make extra money from desperate people who need internet to go about their every day life.
For what they have done to us three times this year we should not give up so easily, keep up the pressure complain, write in, call do what ever you can your effort will make a difference even it it is just a call.
yes, I agree that we should fight, and preserve our right, they have all the rights to cap us at 3GB, or even 30GB as stated in their internal system, however, it's not ethical to just inform you in less then 24 hours before they implement that, at least inform users about the implementation a month ahead, and give options for us whether to continue or terminate or find some alternative, especially contracted users, since the plan differs so much now. I'm fine with capping to a more acceptable speed( 1mbps or 512kbps,), or dropping our 30GB quota to half, not merely 4GB, which seemed overpriced compared with so many other options out there. but I am thinking, whatever the outcome, I might as well just terminate mine since I have already gotten Unifi as my home broadband. I'll miss my bottomless portable hotspot tho
