Oh i see, didnt notice that till u tell. I think they might refund u and will be reflected in your next months bill? (So u pay less for your first month unifi bill)

Or maybe they will continue to provide streamyx until the very last day of ur bill? (eg: u can still use Streamyx even after u terminate till 30 May)

My parent house has the FTB. Their distribution point is on the pole.

My is on the ground, but no FTB.
*
My new home also have the green distribution point on the ground, and house developer preinstalled fiber cable + Fiber Wall Socket (FWS) in the living room. No outdoor Fiber Termination Box (FTB) given. This is expected since fiber cable all buried underground till the living room, no need for fiber cable to go up the wall.

I am installing for my old home. Fiber cable will come from the Fiber Termination Point on the pole along the lorong behind my house.

If they pull the black outdoor fiber cable into the house, they got to remove the metal wire that support the cable right (for indoor use)? Cause i remember the metal wire that prevent the cable from excessive bending/ breaking is quite stiff.

And BTW, if the fiber cable break (indoor or outdoor due to rat, fox that walk on cable), whos responsible for the repair? TM or me?

FYI, this is my experience with CS and it's still not solve yet (still waiting my last streamyx bill)

1) you will get messy mytm account with streamyx & unifi
2) you suppose only get unifi bill from mytm
3) any extra payment will send thru cheque within 3 months.
4) after the last streamyx bill been generated, review it, if TM didn't terminate streamyx by date, make complaint

Oh, thats what happen when I downgrade Astro. Removed sports pack on early March and the CS said I still get to watch sports channel till end of March cause the amount is already billed. Wasted $$ as I never tune to those channels even once for the entire month. mad.gif mad.gif

TM should just reflect those -ve charges in the bill and debit it from the Unifi bill. Such an inefficient way of billing customers. Is TM still issuing separate bill for phone line service and Unifi?

There is another box on the outside of your house wall.
No more this white box on the wall.

Edit: I may be wrong on the boxes.
Are these two boxes the same?
One is outside the house and the other is inside the house.

We are discussing about the white box on the wall outside the house (called Fiber Termination Box, FTB), not the inside one (called Fiber Wall Socket, FWS).

The box inside will surely be given by TM, if not there will be no place for the BTU (aka fiber modem) to plug in. laugh.gif

The box outside the house, FTB, that might ease future upgrade/ repair, is no longer provided during installation.

Having 2 separate accounts is the worst thing ever. Does it mean 2 mytm account == 2 email addresses? shakehead.gif

And im retaining my existing landline number for RM1. Will there be 2 separate bills? One RM1 bill and one Unifi bill delivered separately?

Similar to my case, 1 mytm account == 1 email, n most likely two bills (yet to confirm).

Who knows TM will secretly launch Unifi Lite Sabah/Sarawak package once SKR1M cable system is ready (expected in June 2017)? As a lot of customers are using Streamyx 4mbps at RM88 and the fibre networks are to be partly funded by the state government.

Bla, not many people can get RM88 for 4mbps. To have TM to launch special Unifi lite for east M'sian is like dreaming in the wonderland.

But most installers will try all means to charge u unless it is a simple setup with all equipment placed at the same location. Print out a copy of the installation guide n show it to the installer upon dispute.

OK. That means I am in the right track.
One year ago, they don't provide the FTB outside the house.
The outdoor fiber cable (black colour) goes straight into the house and terminate in the FWS.

Looking at the FTB and the FWS, both function the same.
Outdoor fiber goes into the box and indoor fiber cable goes out to the BTU.

a lot of installer does not follow the guideline to charge.

need to be firmed and extra careful on this.

for those who did not provide receipt one for those charge likely the $$ goes into their pockets.
