I think this calculation is still too expensive. It is more reasonable if adding one more "0" at the back, so it will become as belowed:

5000 MB / day - RM 44
10000 MB / day - RM 66
20000 MB / day - RM 88
50000 MB / day - RM 128
100000 MB / day - RM 188

1. Even nowadays, TMnut revenue earnings is unpredictable. It will not making any differences if using pricing structure.
2. If international links cost are fixed (regardless of more or less been used), TM nut is definitely wrong to throttle BT. TMnut must increase international link.
3. TMnut is earning BIG BIG money every year because it monopoly Malaysia's broadband service. How TMnut will bankrupt ??
3.Actually, BT is functioning through internet. Increasement of BT usage is accouraging internet usage and it is just perfectly match with government's achieve.

and after the implement of quota, TM must not throttle BT anymore.

sounds like you want to pay more to TM ??
and do you think one 2M speed line can download up to 100GB per day ??

10GB per day with RM188 is too expensive.
that is why I say 100GB per day with RM188. and I don't think I can reach that amount with my 1.5M line ( even I download 24 hour).
@@ I don't like cap/throttle. It should be fix to constant speed .. why 4mbit and later back to 128kbit ??

another word, RM188 should be package for unlimited p2p download

Actually, I am hoping for special package for BT usage. If TM can provide this kinda of package, I will consider to apply also. At least, this is a guarantee to customers to use BT ( and no more throttle as long as within the limited download amount).

I am now paying RM66 per month for "unlimited access". Just imagine if TM provide a same package - "limited BT access - 10GB/month" with RM188 ( almost 3 times expensive) ... I wonder how many customers will agree with this price.

Maybe , thread starter can make a poll to collect opinions from customers.

I know exactly what you say.

I pay RM188 for 300GB per month ?? no way. It is still too expensive. THis should be for UNLIMITED access package. I truely mean this. Most customers will compare this price with the previous package. If I can use "unlimited access" with just RM66 per month, why I should pay more
(almost 3 times expensive) for a limited download package ?

Also, Malaysia will have its' owned Ibu Sawat. We supposed to use cheaper and better broadband service in the future. Also, this is Malaysia market ( not Australia, not Singapore), it is meaningless to compare with foreign countries.
If really want to compare, I just pay RM150 per month in Japan then I can start to enjoy 30MB Yahoo broadband line !

I don't know, maybe others will agree with this package. But, not me. I disagree with 5000 MB / day - RM 128 & 10000 MB / day - RM 188 -- too expensive.

Refer to this:
500 MB / day - RM 44
1000 MB / day - RM 66
2000 MB / day - RM 88
5000 MB / day - RM 128
10000 MB / day - RM 188

I am not a heavy BT user. My maximum usage will below than 50GB per month.
I will choose RM88 (2GB/day), this is good enough for me. I can accept this price. Reasonable and not too much. slightly a bit expensive ... but ,still good . at least got GUARANTEE and SAFE to use BT.

I think thread starter is talking about Australia broadband.

I am not agree with this fact. please explain this.

@@ an off topic question: R you working with TM ??

Government force TMnut to make the promotions ?? I never heard of this kinda of news. TMnut can just stop the promotions. Now, customers will only blame TMnut ( for its' stupidity to throttle BT and making so much FAKE promotions). Customers will not blame government. At last, this is TMnut's faulty. Nothing to do with government.

If someone tell TMnut to jump down 10 levels floor building without any safety equipment, will TMnut follow it too ?? Just think this by common sense. Of coarse not. TMnut want to make promotions in order to attract more customers and earn more money. This is nothing to do with "government forcing etc ... or any political issue "

customers pay money to TM every month. We pay money because we need the service. Let say I buy a car with RM30,000 but at last, I find out that this car is only worth RM3,000. I think I am "kenak tipu" and will definitely feel angry.

It's same case as apply TM's broadband, customers are not satisfy with its' service. Of coarse we will complaint and F*** at TM. Do we need to bring this thing to our Prime Minister ?? or discuss it in the Parliment ??

The worst thing is that even TM receive countless of complaints everyday by customers, TM still pretend as if nothing is happening. I wouldn't say TM doing nothing. Yes, TM is doing some improvement. But, the improvement is so damned slow ... like snail crawl ....

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
back to this forum discussion,
I will agree to pay RM88 for 2G/day.
but, TM must promise to customers that this is not something similar to "based on best effort basic"
also don't unreasonably throttle my line if my BT download not more that 2G per day.

really ?? don't forget about those FREQUENT and COMMON problems TM ( unreasonable line disconnection and unreasonalbe speed slow down ---- all happened without any prior notice ).

I think we are start to use "wira" at the very beginning.

agree with this.
After all, customer is the BOSS. TM must follow what customers ask for. If TM failed to fullfil customer's need, then TM must be F*uck off. As simple as that.

just one question here:
Is quota based on " best effort basic" ??

agree with this. even with good local peer , BT can reach ( >120k). I am not good/ understanding at those theory or calculation very well, which you stated at 1st post. I hope there will be a good solution for this issue. may be, price quota will solve it. i hope so. I can pay more for BT ( but not too much) with 2G/day, RM88.

off topic here .....I don't mean to "personal attack". Sorry , if thread starter or admin think it this way.

I really don't think a 20-year-old boy can be such informative/knowledgeable

don't discuss anymore about this off topic. I don't understand a 20-year-old boy thinking with my 17-year-old brain (maybe because of my stupidity). Forgive an under-aged boy talk. ok ??
