some people, they only look at cost of tv.
if you account only the tv installment, it's RM21/mth.
that is RM756 for 36mth.

some people, they want to see total cost of ownership.
Difference between 500Mbps and 100Mbps is (RM219 - RM129) = RM90.
if you account having to upgrade AND tv installment, it's RM111/mth.
that is RM3996 for 36mth.

some people also want to account SST. but input it aside as it just makes presentation more difficult.

Zerolution - pay 24mth to own it. now have 36mth option.
Zerolution360 - pay 24mth and return it. OR, continue paying penalty to 30mth(??) to own it.

i think maxis already stopped offering Zerolution360. Now only Zerolution.

so rm3996 not yet including the sst rite?
if the retail price of the tv (maybe after discount etc.) is really more than rm4k or maybe at least rm5k it is still quite a good deal.
to be frank, nowadays the 4k uhd tv is also not that ex rite? but of course 70-inch maybe different story.

actually for those who really need high speed such as 500Mbps plan. it is not lugi.. quite good deal actually.

among all the devices, i calculated that the ipad air is not worth it at all.. becos no difference at all becos to be frank for most ppl 100Mbps plan is already overkilled unless u are doing 24x7 downloading of huge files which normal ppl do not do it.

i check my existing maxis bill w/ mobile zerolution devices;
devices not hit with 6% SST. only mobile+broadband gets taxed.

so it will be projected increase of ((RM90+6% + RM21) = RM116.40/mth.

RM3996.00 before tax,
RM4190.40 with SST on the fibre subscription portion.

still way below RM6700 RRP if pay lump sum price today, right?!
*
is this the same tv as per what maxis is giving?

yes, agreed that if one needs:
1) tv - without paying lump sum but 0% interest installment over 3 years.
2) extra 400Mbps speed on fibre.

it is still a good deal for sure.

so my question is that if i opt for 36 months zerolution, but maxis fibre is 2 years contract, does it mean that one can also not terminate the maxis fibre after 2 years since it is on 36 months zerolution?

i took ipad air 5th generation some time before covid-19 became a threat. RM91(?) for device. RM28 for the line.

RM18 only have its own quota; no sharing, have to buy add-on if finished.
RM28 on the other hand joins and increases the shared pool with other main+suppl.
i had 160GB/mth in the pool.
after i subscribe fibre, all become unlimited (*mumble* *something* 300GB hidden-but-not-hidden mobile internet FUP across account)

you cannot subscribe the RM18 and RM28 on their own.
only if you buy device from maxis.
(salesgirl lamented that even she can't get it for her pre-existing ipad.)

so still good deal?

dun understand on the rm18 and rm28 parts...

it was good deal to me even if nett device price did not differ much. the SIM plan is special, as it taps into my shared pool that otherwise is underutilised.

https://www.maxis.com.my/en/faq/devices/sma...id-tablet-plan/

Maxis Postpaid Tablet Plan

Plan 18; comes with quota for its own use only. Buy more data if finished.

Plan 28; comes with quota that adds to the shared pool of mainline.

only available for Apple tablets purchased from Maxis.
I already paid 24mth, but can continue to maintain the RM28 line.

The tablet line is part of your account, but does not count as a supplementary line. maxis limits the number of supplementaries based on your primary plan level. in my case postpaid 128, i have 2 supplementaries AND a tablet plan, don't need to upgrade to postpaid 158 (3 supplementaries).

E.g.
main postpaid 128 have 70GB to share, 2 supplementaries add 60GB, tablet SIM adds another 30GB; so total available for all SIMs in the pool is 160GB. If sign up fibre, then pool becomes unlimited.  (but, FUP total for all mobiles in the account is 300GB)

ic. that's quite a good deal.

i actually signed up the maxis fibre last week when they first release this deal. i did not select any device becos i cannot figure out if it is worth it.


anyway, my main purpose to sign up the maxis fibre broadband is not to really switch to maxis fibre broadband but just want to get the transfer request id to bargin with tm for better deal to staywithunifi (i am existing unifi user without contract).

so come back to revisit this deal to see if it is worth it or not.
i think i am interested i will need to wait for the transfer request id to be cancelled first and sign up again. or unless maxis allowed me to add this to my original sign up.

yes.

i think there's a cooldown of 3mths if not mistaken for fresh meat.
but otherwise, just need credit check.

if you did this in maxis centre, re-approach the sales and ask to add to your fibre "purchase order". maybe no fuss if add outright.

add:
there is a cooldown of 3mths to the next zerolution device.
e.g. i add iphone and watch on 1st feb, so i can't get another device until after 3mths. i get TV in july, so next device contract - if i want more - is only available in october.

wah... that's really good. they even allow more than one zelution for a customer. shocking.gif tongue.gif

You know what's the joke?

"Ok, dah upgrade fibre ke 500Mbps. Nanti saya proses abang punya TV; detail dah ambil hari tu."

That was 2 weeks ago. He never did.

Until I knocked door again. Today.
