Yes sorry I meant upgrade. But I expect everyone will understand it cause I mentioned upgrade there

it would be better if Maxis offer to end customer where similar price to their Business promo, which is RM189 1Gbps broadband...

Yup. I renewed contract with them this evening d... Took option 2..
Schedule to come install new hardwares on Saturday noon.

Didn't thought they would offer me anything actually... Bcoz many times I called customer service 123 to ask about recontract fiber and my phone plan and mentioned about terminating they just asked why but didn't offer me anything...
But today when I finally made up my mind to join unifi with the agent and bring the transfer request to maxis center.. Only when processing halfway through on the phone call at the maxis center, they start their retention offer. Lol

what new hardware needs to install for renew contract?

so direct terminate no offer, bring transfer request only have offer?.... wtf waste all ppl time

btw fahmi said the price will significantly drop since a new deal is going to finialize, why don't wait for a while?

If gaming wise, always pick Maxis over Unifi cuz they don't restrict/block any games/server.

Even their Default Wifi 6 router is better than Unifi, but 3rd party router always superior hahaha

my 3 years experience with maxis, i never had downtime.

Customer service wise, there was one time im experiencing high ping and packet loss, they gave me rebates as long as the case is ongoing which is something Unifi won't do lol.

But yeah, if your Unifi is pretty much stable, there shouldn't be a problem for maxis too since they are sharing the same backbone. The only difference is just their routing.

Consider unifi if you need public IP

Actually since Maxis changed my public IP to private one... got more issue than previous but I don't want to pay RM10 extra for non-sense.
I will going to port to Unifi after contract finish or move to 5G

hope you enjoy your stay in unifi
I was from unifi > Maxis because of 3 reasons :

- unlimited data plan on postpaid
- backup 4g dongle
- Maxis will rush TM to fix line problem and better follow up service if you report MCMC and provided me compensation [rebate on service loss days]

Why I did not liked unifi :

- if you encounter any problems and report MCMC, unifi still doesn't give a shit on it [slow response all the way], no follow up call even after issue resolved, no compensation on service loss days
- no backup dongle, unifi down = outage
- if you terminate / switch line ..... wow good luck to you ... there are many threads out there complaining the slowness of TM unifi side on processing - on releasing the port to Maxis (mine took 1.5 months after reported to MCMC!)
- maxis never called and bother me to upgrade plan, unifi agent did (at least once annually).... so annoying....
- Unifi had very bad stock wifi router back then .....serious packet loss when more devices connected 

Well... of course, everyone gets different experience  cool2.gif

Backup Dongle is for 1 year only, after that no more

This time unifi take just a few days to upgrade my 300M to 500M
I am still waiting Maxis to upgrade, more than one month plus already

unifi I contact their chat couple of time and they also responsible and come to fix
Maxis charge me extra on Public IP, now their so call CCNAT cause me a lot of problem, my solution now is site to site vpn to my Unifi there and work from there...
I never use any telco router as they are always suck

I will move back to unifi or 5G plan after contract end

CGNAT, not CCNAT.

Backup dongle is minimum subscription period is 1st year, NOT expired and gone after 1yr. I still have it right now beyond 1st year anniversary, month 18th(?).

Have you applied the free speed upgrade through MyMaxis app?
It's not automatic even if eligible and free.

thanks just noted it is manual process and just applied for upgrade

i was told that the dongle is available for free for 1 year only, after that it will be auto discontinued

however I'm using Asus router and not the Maxis one, so not care about this...

most concern is the extra charge of Public IP during my contract, it was free when I apply and now get charged.
