Actually I just installed my Unifi VIP5 last week and I was not aware of this Ja-Jumbo deal and when TM called me to confirm my registration the CS never told me about this deal

Gettign VIP10 at RM149 + RM60 for Hypp TV seems a fair deal.

What will be the price after the contract?

Can I upgrade for this Package?

I just called TM to upgrade my newly acquired VIP5 to the Ja Jumbo Package for RM209

But was told that after 1 April the amount will be RM209 + 6%

Always thought the RM209 was inclusive of GST / Service Tax already

Anyway. it will take 24-hrs to be done. Check with speedtest tomorrow

TQVM for all advice

Hi guys Im getting really low speed for my unifi. only around 1.3Mbps. my package is 5MB.

I called the customer service earlier and they told me they will reset the connection at their end.(what does this do? does it magically improve your speed? so you have been cheating my money all these while la?)

Here is the thing. Right after I restarted my modem + they reset the connection, I check speedtest I got around 4.4Mbps which was fair. then 2 mins later I checked speedtest again i got 1.3Mbps. (without any tabs running or dl)

Is anyone leeching my wifi? I checked on the router(stock) settings only Im connected apparently.

Help is greatly appreciated, feeling cheated  sad.gif

Have you change your Wifi password?

See if there are any improvements

Also to try speedtest for different servers and different times

So far for my VIP5, for MY Based servers, its between 4.2++mps to 4.8++ mps

Hi guys, just wanna ask a stupid question about this unifi thingy.

My old Streamxy was very prone to lighting strikes during thunderstorms and I always had to take out the telephone socket from the modem and also to switch off the modem and sometimes unplug the power socket.

I have lost about 2 modem's to lighting strikes in part years.

Now since unifi is using fibre optics and not the telephones line, must we switch off the unifi mofrm or router during thunderstorms.

no need.. optic fibre is lighting resistance..no need worry about it but it fragile

Tks for the quick reply.

What do you mean by fragile. Saw the fibre before it was nstslled. It was inserted in a tube like casing, now up my ceiling

What precautions to take.

So no need to power off during thunderstorms like the normal telephone modems.

I am subscribing to the Ja Jumbo package for VIP q
10.

Only pay RM209. Not RM199 + RM60 but rather RM149 + RM60 or perhaps RM199 + RM20 since must have the hypptv together with the Unifi.


Unifi basic 20 mps is RM249 a mth. For jumbo package, total all in is RM269, just RM20 more.


Seems OK, if u have time to watch.

Bro, its not like that

If u google ja jumbo package, the list of channels coveted are there.

The 1 mth free premium channels means all premium channel are free for the first mth. This is actually given to all new unifi and hyppyv subscribers.

After the 1 mrh, you can only watch the channels that is on your package.

To me paying additional RM20 more is worth it over and above the normal VIP 10 price for the ja jumbo package to get the channel for the hypptv

free as in you pay 209-60=149 for 1st month. after that, u pay 209.
many get confused, it's the way they advertise it.
actually, it like this - "normal" vip10 w/o hypptv is 169 or 179 for many.
those paying 199 is with mega pack.
current 209 is with jumbo pack.
jumbo vs mega, diff is the sportspack. if u like the sports pack (don't assume the astro supersports channels r the same as astro!!), then rm10 or rm20 is worth it.

again, some confusion... the way they advertise and the many variations in price and hypptv packs in the past.
*
Yes very confusing.

VIP 10 is advertised as RM199 but not clear what channels comes free.

Also not stayed that you can subscribers to VIP 10/without hypptv. Thought that was only for existing subscribers whose contract has expired

If you are not a heavy suffer and do not downloaded a lot of movie, etc, suppose VIP5 is sufficient.

But if you do download a lot or perhaps keen on the hypptv which cones with the ja jumbo package, u can considered the VIP10 at RM209

avfan what makes it even more confusing is that based on TM website, VIP5 price is RM149 and VIP10 is RM199 on a standalone basis with limited hypptv channels.

The ja jumbo package is RM149 for VIP 10 plus additional RM60 for the hypptv channels but its not stated that we can just have VIP10 without the hypptv.

Also, offer valid until April 15. This is cos I signed up for VIP5 and was told to pay 149 for very limited hypptv.

And when I signed up in early March, the TM staff never told me abt the ja jumbo packages, just sat VIP5 is RM149, VIP10 is RM199

That's why I upgraded to ja jumbo package. Double the speed for addition RM60 with more hypptv channels.

Telekom bought 55.3% on P1 from Green Packet.

Wonder has service for P1 improved since then.

Anon34, does your VIP10 for 169 also come with hypptv

What package are you currently on?

These TM staff must he given big KPI to meet.

Perhaps scared that the unifi customers will jump ship to Maxis which is cheaper.

TM and Maxis has some sort of arrangement, TM allow Maxis to use their broadband backbone and even charge cheaper in return for Astro to give TM some sports channels cheaper.

But let's hope we can all enjoy say 50 Mps for only say 100 per mth in future.

Cost is getting cheaper and with Gamen subsidising the cist of the roll out, TM should be charging much lower.

got offer to upgrade to VIP20 +Aneka for 209. Currently on VIP10 for 169 with standard hypptv. What do you guys think?
*
IMHO, unless you got many uses and Download a lot, 10/MPs is sufficient.

Maybe you are better of asking for lower price,say RM139 for VIP 10.

The above pics is existing price * 6% GST

VIP5 basic price is 149 * 6% = 8.94. = 157.94

Was informed that broadband is currently exempted from the 6% service tax but will be charged GST.
