If your parents don't use internet why do you need a landline? Get a mobile phone for them and use prepaid SIM, only RM30 a month.

This is good idea, TS. You can also video call with your parents.

They do use the internet. I don't need a landline even though I have one from Unifi. They already have mobile phones with prepaid SIMs, only RM28/month.

3G shut off well advertised and everyone know. Shut off fixed line and change to wireless phone or fiber line for those subscribe to fixed line only (no internet)... Published where?

QUOTE(PJng @ Jul 1 2022, 02:05 PM)
if you still copper, even streamyx, it will call you change fibre, but if you don change plan price still same
end of last year my high rise flat copper change to fibre because TM keep call me,
i ask it will renew contract? he say no unless i change plan
then i just agree change fibre, and upgrade plan

ping from about 30 -40, now only 1-5

yeah correct. tm will not entertain/service copper anymore.

if you dont have unifi, have to pull dedicated fibre for phone.

This info published anywhere? 3G shut off was widely communicated

Yes, my FIL's house copper landline which has no internet of any sort changed to the wireless phone. This was about 5 years ago. Free.

Monthly charges the same or higher? Higher deposit for hardware? Able to keep same landline number as before?

copper replacement to unifi air not sure but my office previously using copper with DDI (multiple phone number) package.

we want to downgrade but tm force us to pull a fibre cable because they 'dont have' copper package anymore. costs us around 3k from ground riser to 2nd floor.

from fibre, connect to device and then connect to our pabx

I think it is better they just migrate all to fibre, even those without internet subscription, can just have the BTU and phone line without internet.

Idk about you, but the ancient fix line phone is more reliable. The cheap cordless phone after a while kaput already. If you want cordless better invest in a good one, just buy and plug in.

too many thieves nowadays. copper phone line got stolen.

one month still havent settled, TM doesnt seem to be interested to fix it.

they recommend to change to wireless to clean up this mess.

if we are forced to change due to depreciated technology, i can still understand. but to be forced to change due to too many thieves is real sad case.

Mine is 89rm pm with free phone. No call no charge. Many months '0' billing. Connect to home alarm system too.

Change lifestyle with change of tech.

Wait.... when it was copper only line last time, just a home telephone line is RM3x per month.

How come your "Mobile" home phone cost RM89?

This cost more than you buy the cheapest mobile package and use a SIM card home phone!!! WTF????

The prob with their wireless phone is they can get faulty easily, or battery cannot charge after sometime usage.

I still prefer the old line phone
