I just got a call from TmNutz 10minutes ago after i complained about slow speed to international sites, guess what the technician said....
"Sorry, we only guarantee speed to local sites only but not international sites, we will look into this matter further" don't you think that is just plain ridiculous??!! |

I really do feel that we're being cheated out of our money. What we get is probably (only) the unlimited broadband...but the speed and line quality is terrible. Not only that, tmnet always seem to be coming out with new techniques which limit our download speed...like throttling.

Do remember to challage them and ask them what is Internet in the first place."Sorry, we only guarantee speed to local sites only but not international sites, we will look into this matter further" don't you think that is just plain ridiculous??!! Or else ask TMNUT to change thier Streamyx advertisement that it is no longer Internet... Streamyx is CountryNet... LocalNet... with a bit Internet there...

FYI, when I called TM again for rebate, this time they gave me report number as they usually just ignore and want you to hang up.
And they said it will take 1 to 3 months to process. I told them there is a MCMC regulation and they told me he do not need to care of that. MCMC is nothing and only providing guildlines... And still said fastest is 1 month. TM is truly aggorant.... Cheat people money already still can action... |

I think TM customer care has been trained to identify the type of complaints and users. For those that launch complaint like slow speed internet, usually they don't give a damn ... but for those who complaint about technical issue, they will serve you better.

okay this is my opinion,
regarding if some international sites is slow due to congestion or packet drop at certain nodes and expect TM to fix it is just plain ridiculous. its like asking 1 highway operator to repair a highway that was owned by another and complete different highway operator. its funny. the only thing i tick of about isp in malaysia is the contract that the user must abide like 12month pr 24month contract that u cannot cancel it easily if u'r not satisfy about their performance. this part is actually a joke by my yamen friend that although his country suck, but the isp doesn't have anything similar like this. they have broadband using pppoa, but the contract they do not. they can cancel the service if they aren't satisfied with the service. i understand to setup a broadband to an area is expensive, but isp should suck up the risk rather than push the cost factor to the user. one more thing for TM especially, i can't find their bulletin board easily regarding any announcement about their service (down, interruption and etc) and i still am. Happy surfing |

QUOTE(Moogle Stiltzkin @ Nov 25 2008, 11:28 AM) You are wrong. FYI, I am getting less than 10% of the speed I paid monthly... Maybe 5% max... and that also very unstable... average download rate are 0 to 3kB/sWe have very real and valid complains for the package we are subscribed to. We don't expect to get 100% of the max speed. but we aren't even getting 70-80 % ! Where is the standards ? So how exactly is this the customers fault ? We derserve the right to complain when we aren't getting a minimum 70% of the advertised speed. Anything less is a con. The second complain is why are we paying such a premium price for such a crappy service ? Other countries are paying far less for more ......... so again is it wrong for the customer to discriminate and call foul when we are obviously paying more for less then other places ? Third complaint. The reason for complaint 2 is because tmnut is a monopoly on wired broadband which explains why we pay more for less, and have such bad service as they can get away with it. If there no competitors that can compete, they have less to worry about and no incentive to improve which is a fact and reality. So how is this not a relevant customer complaint ? The communications industry for broadband especially tier 1 needs to be liberalised to bring in more competitors to improve prices and packages that tmnut fails to deliver. The only people that voted no clearly are working for tmnut or their shareholders. Even with the sabotage, a vast majority voted that we are cheated. So the statistics speak for themselves ......... nuff said. Now if only our leaders stop turning a blind eye and wipe their smug smiles off their faces, they can fix this crap. So please understand that there is a reason we call TM as cheater... And even today, TM still claim nothing wrong with them from point to point! |

QUOTE(Moogle Stiltzkin @ Nov 25 2008, 04:12 PM) Ok another good point someone else raised earlier, was even if they want to throttle p2p ( which i don't think they should ), they are wrongly throttling HTTP !!! I did wrote to them... But not published only... because once published, sure TM making noise... How can they throttle http more specifically rapidshare ? It's a legal file sharing for http downloads. The government body that handles internet communication regulations needs to supersive tmnet strictly so they cannot make up any rules and restrictions as they like. I'm pretty sure they are guilty of deceitful marketing which doesn't reflect accurately their crappy and restrictively throttled narrowband. Rebates are just not enough. Tmnut is getting away with providing a crappy service. Nevermind if they provide crappy service, but the sad thing is they are given a monopoly stake in which case it matters a lot because their the only choice we have ! Why isn't there any news on thestar and other media about this ;_; |

Honestly, I have to say StreamyX service has been pretty good for me all these while. I have used it for 4 years and it hasnt let me down a bit. The proxification has dent StreamyX reputation for me, but not as much as Maxis has done to me. There is no moving back for me after getting used to broadband for so many years.

We should be getting at least 100% of the speed surfing malaysian site and at least 70-80% of the speed on international site. If they have shit international speed, they need to get more bandwidth/pipe to international site.
If they cant do it, please unbundled the last mile connection (this mean allowing multiple telecommunications operators use of connections from the telephone exchange's central office to the customer's premises) so that OTHER PEOPLE will get us better internet. I am sure you guys at Lowyat can get together to make an ISP that is guarantee better than TMSHIT. You guys know what is the email address for thestar, feel like writting in email to complain on the newspaper. The transparent proxy thing they just did is just ridiculous. |
