QUOTE(jusbella @ Oct 6 2023, 04:56 PM) Heard the step like this:- no lah. wrong.1. Walk in maxis centre, make a transfer request. 2. Get transfer request ID from Maxis. 3. Walk in UniFi Store, register fibre, give them the Maxis transfer request ID. That's all. it's like mobile number portability. you go to the new ISP first to generate transfer request. then bring that transfer request id to old ISP. they will arrange between themselves to replace with new ISP equipment first. the old ISP will terminate slightly later after confirm no issue during switching ISP. your following bills from both ISPs will have overlap period.

QUOTE(mahdes77 @ Oct 6 2023, 05:48 PM) Let say Maxis never give the free upgrade and we decide to switch with still under contract can the other party absorb it? My friend last time under unifi and switch to maxis still under contract and Maxis absorb it..I believe there was some mutual understanding among unifi n Maxis but not sure now if any not anymore, i think. gentleman's understanding between ISPs. last time there is fixed penalty clause, example; RM500/once kinda denda for early termination. now all follow unifi style, penalty = [fixed amount + your subscription fee for the months not completed]. too hefty to absorb wehh....

QUOTE(jusbella @ Oct 6 2023, 05:39 PM) netken, the important thing is, you don't want to let go of the DB port already assigned to your premise. You might not get it back if there is already pending queue waiting for chance to install fibre. |

QUOTE(YoungMan @ Oct 6 2023, 08:02 PM) Cannot. Need to pay remaining months which is too hefty for any ISP to absorb the cost. For example if you subscribe 500mbps for RM219 and still have 8 months left, then need to pay almost 2k to terminate the contract. well, the earlier advice was to terminate first... Switching provider will not let go your current port. It is just like MNP process and no downtime at all. few days ago somebody wrote the same wrong way "terminate first" elsewhere. |

QUOTE(QuantumEdge @ Oct 6 2023, 09:50 PM) am i correct to understand that current 500Mbps subscribers will get [RM30+RM40]=RM70 discount for 24mth?that will bring 500Mbps/RM219 down to match the new promotional sign-up offer price of 500Mbps/RM149. Looking at those pricing for new <=500Mbps sign-ups (without the RM10 teaser), actually the pricing exactly matches what unifi unveiled on 5th October. jusbella liked this post

QUOTE(QuantumEdge @ Oct 6 2023, 10:55 PM) Should be, and I hate their method of using rebates for 24 months instead of proper discount like Unifi i... don't think this rebate will come with forced 24mth tie-down if auto-eligible.Like Maxis is trying to tie us for another 24 months with no actual commitment after that Yeah, I'm not happy seeing this But from what my agent told me, might have something else on the way unless it's only given if customer request. (if for me personally, it won't make a difference if having to request and need tie-down, since i have tv-zerolution 20mth still anyway, i think, so not a lost. but i understand the hassle and the worrying if already out of contract.) yeah, from that original posting, it did say that RM10*24mth is plug-in immediate response to unifi's threat; maxis is in midst hashing out an affirmative response. jusbella liked this post

QUOTE(QuantumEdge @ Oct 6 2023, 11:01 PM) Regardless, Maxis feels so much more... money faced than TM for all we know - and didn't -, Unifi could have hidden "RM10" in the pricing of 300Mbps and above...Charging RM10 per month extra for public IP, giving 24 months rebate instead of proper discount like TM And the annual mobile outage... Even thought their routing is way better than TM, I just dont feel comfortable renewing my contract under such a company (unifi "recently" default assign public IP to 300Mbps and above) jusbella liked this post

QUOTE(KenYoung @ Oct 7 2023, 04:13 AM) I renewew with maxis a week ago @ rm 99... With 6 months waiver.. 100mbps... that RM89 is time-limited promo to new users only maaa....Am I getting a bad deal since now unifi lowered their price d to 89 and agent saying got 6 months waiver and that RM40 also only to drive price down for existing users. both only 24mth. -- So assuming the base is 100Mbps/RM129: you got things down to RM99 (RM30 less than 100Mbps/RM129) and 6mth waiver, that alone is this much over 24mth [RM129 * 6mth] + [RM30 * 18mth] = RM1334 for those that only got 24mth of discounts for their 100Mbps/RM129, over 24mth is only [RM40 * 24] = RM960 and assuming subscribers stick to status quo and does not change plan, in 25th month, while you continue enjoy RM99, everyone reverts back to RM129. but of course everyone is free to shift their subscription around to new pricing over the period. insuggest to you, don't lose sleep over it. everyone regret and ponder what they have could have done better with 20/20 hindsight. you've made the best decision at that point in time, based on the best information available to you at that point in time. example: who could have guessed Unifi' 800Mbps and 1Gbps subscribers have a shot topermanent upgrade to 2Gbps for whatever lower price they are already at (less than RM300), while we 2Gbps subscribers had to stick around paying more than RM300 and only getting "a token of appreciation" cry.gif 😮💨 😭 KenYoung liked this post

It does not make sense. back then can get that same 70" TV for RM1/mth if subscribe 800Mbps/RM299, that alone already does not justify taking 800Mbps as I would be paying RM80 more on broadband for a saving of RM20 on the TV. Upgrading in midst of existing contract makes it less sensible as then i would be paying not only RM21 for the TV but also RM80 more on fibre. regardless speed upgrade to 800Mbps/RMsame or reduce 500Mbps/RMless, i am for it.

For new sub RM139, with WiFi 6 router Maxis: Price lowered to RM129, speed remains the same, new sub RM129 500Mbps Unifi: Existing user will be upgraded to 800Mbps, price remains the same, new sub RM159, with WiFi 6 router Maxis: Price lowered to RM159, speed remains the same So if you are users with RM20*24 months rebate (300mbps at least) Basically your bill will remains the same |

QUOTE(QuantumEdge @ Oct 10 2023, 01:47 PM) Same price as Unifi but we're not going to get any speed upgrade 24mth is good enough then for an existing 500Mbps/RM219 with ~21mth left on TV Zerolution.And I believe the discount will come in as rebates for 24 months hopefully no contract renewal. -- previous TCO projection: RM21 * 36mth = RM756 signup discount RM30 * 12mth = RM360 500Mbps/RM219 * 36mth = RM7,884 nett RM8,280 -- revised TCO projection: RM21 * 36mth = RM756 signup discount RM30 * 12mth = RM360 500Mbps/RM219 * 16mth = RM3,504 500Mbps/RM159 * 20mth = RM3,180 nett RM7,080 -- the TV itself was RRP RM6699. So with or without downward price revision, I'd still say it was and still good investment. This post has been edited by Oltromen Ripot: Oct 10 2023, 02:06 PM |
