I use to love Malaysia Liga Dunhill back in 80's and 90's. We use to have quality players and fantastic piece of game. But now that has turn into some horrible gameplays here..

All because of $$$$$$$

We wake up 2 to 3 in the morning expecting to watch our favorite team play and there's no weather affecting the Astro signal but then, Astro STILL manages to find a way to piss us off! Somehow along the line, my TV reads "This channel is not included in your subscription. To subscribe........"

What the hell have I been paying for then? I can understand that transmission would be interrupted in the event of bad weather but what's the excuse this time?! Bear in mind, this is not the first time this is occurring, when United played West Ham (and Spurs played Arsenal), we had the same crap and missed 20+ minutes of the matches shown. It's annoying as heck.

Is there a channel where we can voice our complains? Writing to papers, would they publish our rants? Consumer tribunal or something cause I didn't stay up at 4.51 AM to face this garbage.

i'm not sure if anyone here replied to your post, but i'll try my best to answer yours.

Do you put your Astro on Standby mode? I have seen many people (friends, family, neighbours) after watching a program at Astro, they just off the TV and go off and leaving the Astro still on. I'm not a tech geek, but Astro needs to be at Standby mode so that the folks at Bukit Jahil can install the latest patch, if you will, into your Astro box, system, decoder whatever you want to call that thing.

Just like games these days, you can't join a particular server if you didn't install the latest patch first. Anyone has Steam? You have to let Steam download and update Game ABC before you even play it.

If you do put your Astro on Standby mode when you're not using it, check if you paid your Astro bills on time. Once their Customer Service folks told me that they might cancel off some of your channels if you don't pay the bill in full, or late payment.

just my 0.02

Recently it happened the day Arsenal vs Spurs. I missed the first 25 minutes because of the blank screen. Try to contact Astro call centre but no one pick it up. Some say its because of the installation of updates thingy as mentioned previously by The whacker. But i dont know. Probably because there is no competition in term of who be able to deliver a live coverage of football match other than Astro?

The dont have competitors.

If companies like Astro and Streamyx have competition from other companies .. then i don't think this sort of problem will exist ..

To Threadstarter (kobe8byrant):

You are a Man Utd fan yet you called this frustrating? Man Utd games are shown week in and out.

Think about football fans from other clubs (especially lower division, midtable premier league teams) who don't even have a chance to watch their team play. We have a Southampton fan in the forum yet i have never seen him whines.

How long have you been supporting Man Utd? Man Utd fans are already more fortunate than most of the other teams in the league, you should be thankful for that.
