May I know what is the Astro phone number that we may receive when they try to send us info, either from technical support or spam.

I could have block their number when I received ads call, but now I am expecting to receive relevant info from their technical support, but never seems to have arrived.

Thanks, you mean the whatsapps auto reply ? It does not seem to recognise Live agent command.

is it possible to subscribe to only Primary Pack + Learning Package? Cannot seem to customize the package in Astro website.

KUALA LUMPUR: Astro Malaysia Holdings Bhd’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Measat Broadcast Network Systems Sdn Bhd, has secured a term loan of RM400mil from Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp (SMBC) (M) Bhd on a clean basis.

In a statement, Astro said the term loan is available for multiple drawdowns, with the first drawdown to be made within three months from the date of the facility agreement.

“The facility shall be fully repaid in four years from the date of the first drawdown with a one-year option to extend.”

Astro said the purpose of the term loan is to finance the costs relating to the production, purchase and licensing of content, programme or channels and its purchase of set-top boxes, including the settlement of vendor financing.

The pay-TV operator added that the financing facility will also be used for capital and operating expenditure and to refinance the existing term loan facility of RM380mil that was obtained on Aug 9, 2018.Separately, Astro said it had brought civil claims in the Kuala Lumpur High Court against two food and beverage (F&B) outlets after gathering evidence that they were streaming and showing pirated Astro content to customers at their premises.

According to a statement, the F&B outlets are Restoran Jamal Mohamed & Sheriff in Petaling Jaya and its owner; and SDP Bistro in Taman Molek, Johor Baru and its owners.

“Astro was subsequently able to secure from the High Court a declaration that the outlet owners’ acts of screening and showing Astro copyrighted content to the public in their business premises without Astro’s consent or licence was an act of copyright infringement pursuant to Section 36 of the Copyright Act 1987.

“The two outlets and their owners have admitted their misconduct and ceased from infringing the Astro copyrighted content. Restoran Jamal Mohamed & Sheriff has also committed to a legal Astro subscription.”

In a separate case, Astro said the directors of Robataya Sdn Bhd, who owns Scotsman Yakatori Bar in Petaling Jaya, have issued a public apology to Astro for showing unauthorised Astro content, after being issued a cease-and-desist letter.

“Robataya Sdn Bhd has entered into a settlement agreement with Astro, admitting to its wrongdoing and signing up to a legal Astro subscription.”

Also ch.307 would be cease this 27th.

Can cease as it is worthless to watch too.

What is channel 307? Astro rarely update their Chinese channels offering

Channel 307 is Astro Shuang Xing and the content will moved to Astro Quan Jia HD on 28 August 2023.

Same fate as Wah Lai Toi I guess, Shuang Xing would be transitioned as an On Demand channel, or simply ceased altogether.

Astro Quan Jia will be Astro QJ on Aug 28, 2023.

Any price reduction? If not then is not fair. Reduce or replace channels with lower quality channel then price still same then watch more ads? I dont understand.

Assthrow contract is auto-renewed. Not much difference if you are not alert.
To terminate assthrow a lot of T&C.

Auto renew is for new subscribers only? I've seen my brother contract has expired with no renewal. He was able to terminate immediately without hassle.

If you are not under the legacy subscription, it will be auto-renewed.

Best is to be with legacy plans package if u don't need those Disney+ or Netflix

I remember that time force everyone in movie pack pay RM5 extra. Is FORCE. Lol. Big huuhaah then.

Any promotion for Astro recently? Currently I'm subscribe Super Sport Pack 3 which monthly around RM195, planning to downgrade, I need AOD, Sport, if possible can addon Movie.

Buat hal lagi

Just realized got 2 pop up channels in astro..

Ch 100 - Merdeka related

Ch 400 - Ultraman content

👌

Ch100 - it's rojak recycle content from existing channels...

not enough staff to do subtitling 

all VSS already

A pity that it said it has English subs, but the subs is not available unless you are watching it On Demand. :V

What is actually 'On Demand-only'? Previous Wah Lai Toi ceased and become tvb drama HD channel. How to watch this channel after 3 Sept?

FYI, from 18.08.2023, who subscribe platinum pack will get SPORT EXTRA PACK without additional cost

The additional pack is for how long?? I mean just for 24m or until u terminate your astro subscription?

mean platinum pack at slighty over Rm200/mth still don't get everything??

Josh want ask you, now Astro can customise the package or not? Those package on website no have my perfect choice.

What for so susah?  Just complaint to MCMC can get fast response from Assthrow.

Yes, we should go thru the easy way and not letting Assthrow to torture us if anyone wants termination.
How badly is VSS?
Getting latest big loan meaning their cashflow is no longer sustainable.

From some fb post unifitv will launch 4 hbo channel in 1 sept. All unifi tv sub can watch for free for 1 month. No hbo go app. The app only come 1 oct when hbo will be part of the ultimate packs. No price increase.

If unifitv can score epl from 2025 bidding then azzterooo really have to think hard hard.

Hi, does Astro reconnection fees applies to an active account(paid on time) but the Astro decoder is off for a long time till need to WhatsApp Astro to “update the list of service” error code: WAFT

I see, by any chance do you know if I left the decoder unplug for a while, how long would it take to show the “We Apologise For The Service Interruption message (Code: WAFT)”?
