QUOTE(KuzumiTaiga @ Jan 13 2024, 03:38 PM) Hi. So I've reached out to TM regarding the below issue but couldn't come to a resolution. Hence the post here. complain to mcmc la.Last night my internet connection was suddenly lost. Lodged report, and technician came today to check. Checked inside my house (landed 6 year old house), no issue with the fibre, then went out and they found that the fibre optic underground is broken. Technician quoted me RM300 to repair and have the connection restored. I felt confused, isn't this TM's infra outside of my home so it is TM's own cost to maintain? Technician didn't like that I disagreed and tried pressuring me to let him fix if not i'll have to look for other contractors and the charges may be higher. I declined and he closed the report. Now I am still without my internet. Called TM again to complain and they said they will open a new report and send a technician over in 3 working days ![]() |

Is the contractor a Chinese middle age uncle call Kenny?
He was the one install for my house at Semenyih, same pulling cable underground outside my house. He asked for rm700 for my case. I know hes trying to make a quick buck I paid up because I just want the Internet up as soon as possible. Before that already got few groups of contractor came, all told the same thing "You need to hire your own contractor to pull the cable" which contradict with what I read on TM website. I really cannot tahan anymore. Im pretty sure beside taking my monies these croock also claim installation charge from TM, basically they take monies from both side. |

So fibre optic problems within the compound of house is covered by TM and we don't have to pay?
And if we pay, it should go into bill and not paid directly to contractor? |

Non standard installation is it?
TM will only give your 10M and they will repair them if got problem. However for those newly built area which is just a small parcel, if developer didnt pre-install those 10 cores, basically you have to pay to licensed tm contractor to pull those extra length. Yes, TM wont fix your cable if it is broken. My cousin always had his fibre optic bitten by mouse and keep paying few hundreds to sambung back. |
