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.

Switching provider will not let go your current port. It is just like MNP process and no downtime at all.

That would be disastrous...
Btw, unofficial info so far regarding Maxis fibre pricing.
100Mbps @ RM99 (Discount RM10 x 24mths @ RM89)
300Mbps @ RM139 (Discount RM10 x 24mths @ RM129)
500Mbps @ RM159 (Discount RM10 x 24mths @ RM149)
800Mbps @ RM249 (Free MaxWiFi)

Any info of 1gbps and 2gbps?

Those who need speed upgrade will definitely be disappointed, while those who want to see reduction of price will be happy.
I think this is also part of their strategy to force people migrate to new plan, so that in future there will be less pricing varians for each plan unlike TM.

Perhaps wait for official anouncement. Hopefully by then something would have change and existing users allowed to upgrade/downgrade.

But are those really official statement from Maxis?

Make sure you done switching using TR ID as mentioned above. Do not terminate your line as then it would be difficult to apply back

Maxis terbalik from TM. They have offer from authorise deelers but no official Maxis own offer. For TM must get offer from Tmpoint, authorise deeler cannot give any special offer. Wonder when will Maxis officially lower down price for their fibre?

Previous experience TR from Unifi, I was told TR may take up to a week or 10 working days to approve.

Modem aka BTU is own by TM, so the TM technician may or may not change the modem during installation. Mine was replaced with ZTE modem from old Huawei modem.

Definitely... it's the same if you get any offer from Unifi.

Unfortunately in Malaysia it's a long time practice by Maxis, Unifi, Astro, you name it.

The free upgrade for MSAP compliance should not be subjected to renewal of contract. If Maxis renew your contract for the free upgrade you have the right to report to MCMC and to Fahmi.

Wonder what took them so long to come out with official anouncement? So far all the anouncement are from forum and deeler but not Maxis.

Hahahaha, kejap, kami nak untung lagi.

Must also make sure to have good coverage at the place where you eat, play and shit. Otherwise will regret later. This applies to all telco regardless.

no harm to try. Just bring it up to MCMC on the reason that your provider do not owner the call to lower broadband pricing.

Try to find those agent that has promo of 6 months free or free smart TV. It is called Unifi winback campaign

Wow really? I thought I saw some on FB marketplace already follow the new price, either 6 months free or get a smart TV.

Do you get 3 months free bill? Got info that switching from other provider to Unifi:
rm89 100mbps, 3 months free bill.
rm129 300mbps, 6 months free bill or free TV.

Never terminate existing line, just do by transfer request to avoid your port taken by others. Approach agent and register your Unifi plan, tell them you switch from Maxis. The agent will give you transfer ID which you can submit to Maxis. After Unifi installed then your Maxis line will cut off, but of course there is a final prorated bill you need to pay.

Yes, just that initial investment to buy a good 5G modem is expensive. Worth the investment if you plan to go along this root. Can consider the Yes plan or the Umobile 68 plan.

Unifi will always have Winback Campaign for you to switch over. The current one I asked from agent is 129 for 300mbps, plus either free 6 months or free TV. Maxis also have offer of 129 for 300mbps with free 6 months for people switching from other provider.
My Digi fibre contract ending in a month, so by then I have to decide either Unifi or Maxis

In my pov I rather get the free months than the TV.

To be honest the agent just bullshitting you about the free SviCloud 9S. The price of that box is around rm400+ and you are paying RM380 for it. Everything is just a matter of few clicks on the remote to setup, not rm380 for the service as claimed by your agent.
Consider the agent "trick" you into buying the box but at a slightly cheaper price.

👍

Overall you got a good deal there... The rest of the gifts not so significant...
