Getting Started

|
Hey guys, I was offered to change my decoder and the dish to a newer one after upgrading to super pack 3 ( Currently using the beyond decoder and satellite dish when the astro HD service was introduced). After changing to the new decoder and satellite dish, can i still use it when balik kampung by bringing the my decoder and swapping the decoder to watch my channel? Thanks.

Coz you know what, all along you have been paying Govt that 6%, from the Govt Tax. So your fee whould be the same, but onlt the term is changed; from Govt Tax to GST. Anyway, I stand corrected
