4) on celcom fibre's advantages, the best is the termination clause....but if you read the terms carefully :
a) do you know that the ONU only 1 year limited warranty? TM warranty you for LIFE as long as you're under their contract. Tukar berapa kali also nevermind, i just changed mine not to long ago FOC, because the connection not stable due to overheating of the ONU unit and resplice the fibre optic. Sometimes, if you pandai-pandai and good relationship with the contractor, can even help you replace your router.
b) if you move house, you incur additional RM200 to "transfer" your account to another branch servicing your new location. For TM, no such issue. As one forumer stated, transfer of ownership ini macam pun boleh.
c) if you ffk/reschedule installation date from initial appointment, any change is rm200 unless give 4 days advance notice. I'm presuming this also applies to after sales service issues. For TM, if you give reasonable time ahead, the contractor has no qualms rescheduling, even half a day before you tell them need to reschedule also ok, FOC, come another day.
d) there is no guarantee that celcom won't "over-deliver" for certain users, but chances definitely lower because of margin concerns.
i also looked into celcom when i undergone this fiasco, but item 4a and 4c is quite a tough consideration because ONU can die at anytime. This one TM takes the cake. And there is no guarantee that celcom after sales service is any better.
If you subscribe to Celcom Home Fibre under TM's HSBB network similar to Maxis Fibre, your ONT(fibre modem) is supplied by TM Wholesale themselves, it's lifetime warranty.
By the way the market is throwing ONTs out there now, it's just a plain dumb media converter with some basic routing function and switch. They're dumping them below USD$45 per unit out there with advance function. Those one ethernet port mini ones are even cheaper goes below USD$35 or less.
Early termination is only one time off RM500 under contract, downgrade only one time RM50 and no renewal of your contract, continue from where you left off.
Their 100M plan is among the cheapest RM120 only just use it for data, dump the stock router and get your own.
