For customers with the Ultra or Ulti Box, you are required to return only the Astro box along with the Smart/SIM Card. There is no requirement to return the remote control, power cables or satellite dish/outdoor unit (ODU).

Who wants to buy brand new Astro Ultra remote (unused) ? rclxms.gif brows.gif

Want to use Netflix must pay... sharing was misused by bulk of the users and they have calculated the number of accounts vs money collected by them.

if you own Netflix or its shareholder, you would have to do something about it.

Do we need to call them early to terminate eg. one or two weeks before the contract expires?  bruce.gif
*
I call earlier to enquire the contract end date.
best to call 1-day after contract end date but before the statement date.

According to Astro website, all termination request require 30 days notice period.
So it has to be within 30 days before your actual billing date, and termination will be carried out according to your bill cycle day.

Of course, you don't so last minute inform them laa, like less than 3 days before billing date, who knows later they'll say cannot terminate with the excuse of "too last minute"...
1 day after contract end date? Isn't that too late already, since contract auto renewal already been triggered?
*
why would it auto-renew ?

Mine was cancel less than 30-day notice... it cancel on the next statement date cun-cun

Astro Malaysia Holdings Bhd's net profit nose dived due to higher content, broadband and staff-related costs and net financing costs due to unfavourable unrealised foreign exchange from unhedged lease of transponders.

Yippeee i am proud to say i'm a long term Astro subscriber who quit using them

Question, is it EASY to terminate our Astro subscription nowadays?

I have been subscribing them for 8 years.

I am thinking another way to watch Liverpool play in case if I terminate my Astro.

Suggestion please, brothers and sisters here. Please.

Call and enquire about your contract termination is possible after which date.
Best to call before the statement date.

The Astro WiFi dongle works PnP on Windows 10 using default 802.11n USB Wireless Driver.

Based on FCC ID, it’s a Edimax EW-7733UND

Surprisingly advanced for the time, since it supports 5Ghz (the DMT5 does also)
And based on the pics it is absolutely the same device just with a different logo
user posted image

Seems like it uses the MediaTek Ralink RT3573
https://www.mediatek.com/products/broadband-wifi/rt3573

So, surprisingly decent and still can be used since it'll be far better than those RM15 N150 dongles

Managed to save RM15 and "reused" Astro Wi-Fi dongle hahaha
