AFAIK, TM start this waive rental fee thing at 2015.
B4 2015, i think most people have to make the difficult decision that giving up the old number or paying for the rental fee (sb even change the number to tm prepaid for saving money)

Obviously , it is not fair that TM didn't allow non-combo package user to keep their old telephone number in free of charge.
Did you success to keep your old number?
Your experience is valuable , pls don't mind to share...


p/s: I just wonder can we upgrade the streamyx(non-combo) to combo, and then immediately upgrade the combo to unifi ? can this work?

i don't think anyone here is interested with it. maybe those desperated streamyx 1-4Mbps users will.
The plan is not cheap after all , it will cost RM199 without any Offer (although,it has RM60+RM60 offer now)

Thanks for sharing.
btw, video and audio quality is too lousy (view with 1080p).


Not much useful info in the video. quite a waste of time to me.
I think nobody care about which PON technology they gonna use for new UNIFI users.
If anybody wanna sign-up UNIFI , they only care about where, and when TM are going to deploy it.

Obviously, they currently deploy it in a very passive way.
All Malaysian can only "checking" their address in TM website to know valid or not currently.
no transparency at all.

since they got the money support from the gov, i think people have the right to know where is the HSBB2 and SUB URBAN areas they refer to(which area? which town?) ? and when they will proceed it ?
We always heard about it, but, seems that nobody ever saw their schedule, everything is in the mist.


For the users in non-unifi area (/streamxy user) ,
Seems that, they plan to use their own VDSL2 variant to be the successor of current ADSL technology.
but bad karma still waiting for them in next decade (from my understanding).
anyway, the those poor users finally can get rid of the slow slow 384kbps upload speed.

coz, the most 2 irritatting problems of streamyx (for decade) is not cause by technology itself.
The unreasonable congestion in so called "peak hour" (even u paid a very high price for it) and
The unfair treatment to different users (too many promo price for new users, but not for existing users, they can only waiting for the "lucky call"??what the f??? )

they can change the technology, they can change the package name, yet it's role still remain.
some kind of Good Kid vs. Bad Kid thing...
streamyx , bad kid, expensive.
UNIFI, good kid, expensive too. which one u gonna choose?


p.s.: the info of vdsl between 00:40:00 and 00:46:00 in the video stream.
there is a flash back moment b4 , i do like it .

I believe what he meant is the "Tiang telephone" .
If anybody wanna deploy broadband faster, they had to re-use the copper telephone wire, right?

but, i don't think, other isp can use it without the permission and help from tm.
and, if they do co-operate with tm, i don't think the price will be cheap.
just look at unifi-celcom-maxis style.semua sama-sama lah...

I know it is too hard to believe, just believe it or not.
and very sure , it is not hardware issue or human setting error at TM or user side.
and the behaviour is by designed.
(skip all the details here...).

I think there is no right or wrong here.
after all, TM owned the final right to interpret it.
no matter how their staff and reseller told u.

and seems that it was a marketing strategy since streamyx days to unifi vip.. and now.
they always writen black and white with one story, and tell u another one.
Finally, which one become effective , really hard to say.
maybe both can be true ,or either.

just like unifi vip, it is still with quota in black and white,
whilst they haven't apply it yet...


so, we all have the same question: will it permanet or not? no one got the real answer, until it is effective to u.

no need to re-new the contract ? so nice...

actually , it was original 5Mbps only
luckily ,after couple months it launch,
they upgraded the upload speed from 5Mbps to 10Mbps officially..

just forget about 30Mbps upload, it won't happen nearly or never happen.

upgrade to 100Mbps package will have alot faster upload speed.
