Hmmm, alright then.

there's a rumour that tmnet will soon implement charging according to Gbytes transfers per-months. and the mysterious Gbytes usage in our monthly bills somehow feels like validating it.

sorry... i just got a hold of my bill, ya it does state the data usage on the right side... didnt notice those were there

*edit: wow i hit 12gb on january bill... down to 3gb on feb (taiwan quake i guess)

HOW DO YOU TRUST THOSE FREAKING TMNUTS?!


Unlimited, that's what it says, we hope that's what it really is, but we don't know for sure.


About the billing, it's not surprising that your bill may be sent over to KL when you live in Sarawak or vice versa. If they're charging extra for the unlimited pack they gotta be sued.

u guys sure know that we cannot connect to international peers when we're on p2p software rite? (either BT, emule, kazaa, etc.) and by WE, i mean those on 60.* IPs.
well, i got a chance to speak with their technical staff and he said that tmnet might wanna come up with some new value-added services, whereby IF the user wanna get connected to international peers on p2p software, they have to subscribe to that particular value-added services.
this is what the staff told me on OCT 2006. it might be true or it might be bogus. i'll just wait until they start charging me extra, then imakickyoasstmnet!

hidden charges? hmmm

Heh I don't even get my freakin' bills. Changed address like 3 years ago and the dipsh1ts over at TM never processed the address change. Luckily there's Maybank2U

shit..if this is true..charging us by how much we download a month is pure bullshit man. f*** when are more private ISPs coming up man..the bloody govt sooo sayang tmnet..but service like shit...f*** la wei...i know la i shouldn't be cursing abt tmnet cos without them we have no LIVE, but i ain't gonna be worshipping either cos..they're the ONLY ISP capable to have our LIVE running..

if they really charge for how much we're using...that's bullshit man...BULLSHIT!

do ISPs charge their users by download amount in other countries? bloody tmnet...sucking our f***ing money for nothing!!

It's cheap[skate] I'll tell you that but I'd rather pay like 3 times more for a guaranteed stable connection and customer service involving more than a single person working.

u know after the taiwan quake..my fren asked tht if his connection is affected..until it's as if no connection at all..will they still bill us?

guess what those f***ers at tmnet answered..those money grabbing whores..

and yet, they just got the "best broadband service in malaysia" award. uhhh...sure u could win..if you're the ONLY broadband service in a monopoly? sheesh!

whatever it is, i will get very very very pissed off if they DO charge per usage..

Uh ... welcome to the club? I'd say 95% of the LYN ppl feel the same way ... but guess what most of us can't do a damn thing about it

Personally I don't ask for much ... I mean, Korea and Japan are measuring their internet in triple-digit mbps now, and we're still stuck at 1 mbps, but to me that's ok ... what's NOT ok is the terribly inconsistent latency I get when playing online games with people outside m'sia/s'pore ...

... but ya ... again I have no other option where I live so it's streamyx or 56k dialup ...

Oh and for those of you who've studied/lived in Australia ... the internet plans over there are all pretty much usage-based, no? I remember my aussie friends complaining that "oh no I've almost used up my quota, can't download anymore" all the time.

this thread is going nowhere.......... phewwwwwwwwwwwww lets fly to africa

I called up Tmnet Constumer Service and asked about the data usage, and she said that it was only to inform on what rate your upload/download is.

She even stated that we dont need to pay extra fees for that. (For now i guess)

No, there is no whatever charges based on your bandwidth usage...

I'm on 512k package, and i download an average 30-40g per month, still paying RM66

oh.. u weren't charged extra? i tot this whole ruckus was about u being charged extra

Looks like this is turning into another TMNET bashing thread. Threre's many threads for that already in the broadband section

Thread closed.
