TM may come up with the pricing scheme similar to Singtel.
Different pricing for 12 month, 24 months, 36 months or 48 months. The longer the cheaper.
So we buy/re-contract package, eg RM149X12, RM129X24 or RM99X36.
IF remain 12-month penalty, someone may take advantage.

Please read the Singtel Fibre Broadband Terms and Conditions (pdf file)

Minimum Subscription Period / Early Termination Charges
11. The Minimum Subscription Period of each of the Services under this Agreement is as set out above.
12. Customers on Fibre plans with premium top-up are not allowed to make any changes to the premium
after sign-up.
13. To terminate or change your Service, please call the Customer Service Hotline at 1688.
14. Termination of individual services within the Singtel Fibre Bundle is not allowed. Termination of one or

15. In the event that this Agreement is terminated for any reason within the Minimum Subscription

It will be solved by Unifi Magic Box, wireless at last mile, but fixed at your premise. Min 10Mbps.

Free upgrade (2019) for existing Unifi Lite customers (RM129) to >20Mbps.
Check the status after 15/7/2018.

They don't qualify to pay tax.
But you can claim up to 28% under lifestyle tax (Internet) relief.

I assume BR1M B40 takers (household)

Wait for this package launched first.

Check the status after 15/7/18.

Unifi B40 is Internet-only, no HyppTV. Only for the poorest 40% households. Just like Streamyx 1Mbps@RM68, 4Mbps@RM88 a few years ago.
So most likely the rest paying RM129 for 30Mbps (free upgrade from Lite) with HyppTV (not sure with TV box?)

Mostly Jan-Jun19.
Very few allocated Aug-Dec18.
TM are working on 30-100Mbps users first.
If you now get 100Mbps at RM129 or less, sure those 30-100Mbps users will complain.

Next year TM should have a cheaper Turbo package, otherwise 30-50Mbps users (2019) will make noise.

Already announced by TM in July, for FTTH only.
But the upgrade will be carried out in 2019 only.

No need to jump ship lah. Pay RM200 to downgrade.
I believe Unifi will come out with a similar package soon.
It should be the final package for those will not be upgraded to 100Mbps.

Guessing... Basic plus or super lite RM89-109 will appear soon.

Gobind already proposed to give rebate and backdated to 1/1/18. I wait and see.

Maxis can't take order and installation before 13/9, right?
TM has 3 weeks to plan, maybe the new package yet to be approved by Gobind.
Maybe TM will give up low-end users as TM will get most of Maxis FTTH's revenue by leasing the ports.

Still remember...
- someone got Unifi 30Mbps without HyppTV @ RM109 a few days ago?
- A special announcement before 31/8?

Maybe YTL and Celcom are the next one shocking you.

10Mbps users, mostly in Jan-Jun 2019.
The email never told you the upgrade would be carried out on 15/8/2018, but "Speed upgrades will roll out in phases
starting from 15th August 2018".
