I'm not sure if you guys have noticed, but Maxis seems to do traffic shaping when streaming with Spotify on 4G. I use Spotify pretty often when I'm driving and I often get stuttering.

So I turned on my data traffic monitor and I noticed that the data speeds average 60KB/s at most... and this is obviously not sufficient when streaming on very high quality. I'm on MOP 98 with unlimited data so data usage isn't an issue for me - but if Maxis is doing traffic shaping then this obviously this is a concern.

Will open a complaint tonight, but I'd like to see if anyone else is facing this issue.

I'm certain it's not due to station switching... I tested it while stationary and the speeds are still the same.

Save mobile data is disabled on my settings.

Would have loved to but I don't have a VPN unfortunately. If you have one please go ahead and do so, I'd have a better case to put against them.

Made a report yesterday - let's see what they say when they get back.

So I got a call from Maxis claiming that he was from the Network team - and apparently it's been reported before but they aren't able to do anything about it.

So guys if you are facing these issues - take 5 minutes to make a report because it's basically BS that Maxis is restricting your usage yet be able to claim 'unlimited data'.
