My guess is that the packages will be revised next year. The current promo and upgrade offers users are getting are probably to establish the base prices for next year. Current users are given the opportunity to get the newer prices now, with an extended contract , and maybe with a slight advantage over newer users next year.
But the differences cannot be too great. For example, if a current user is going to pay RM179 for 30M now and get upgraded to 50M next year, then 50M may be around the RM179-199 range next year. It could be RM199 but with some add-on. New 199 user cannot say they are paying more than old 179 user as they get some add-on. Old 179 user cannot say they did not get the add-on as they pay less than new 199 user.
There are 5M users offered to upgrade to 10M for RM159 and get free upgrade to 30M. This means that 30M base price may be at RM159. Maybe next year the 30M will be at RM179 with some add-on.
There are many variations of old packages. I think most will be adjusted to new package pricing. For example, maybe discounts will be given to those paying more than new package prices.
Since old 5M at RM149 will be upgraded to 10M, that is the lowest package. This fits in with current highest Streamyx 8M package at promo price of RM140.
Looking at the different upgrades and offers, my guess is the base prices may be something like
30M = 159-179
50M = 179-199
100M = 229-249
I think there will be price adjustments for old users who may be paying higher than new pricing. This could be the thank you surprise and better offer mentioned.
Just some guess work...
Good analysis but again no B&W from TM that they are giving free upgrades to old users. Again not sure how they evaluate the eligibility. But the differences cannot be too great.

Till date, I have not received any surprise email from TM. Anybody else in the same boat as me?
