The Ends 'is' Near!

Surprise.

I was wrong when thinking about UNIFI, TM Net's fibre Optic Broadband.

When seeking desperately for when are we getting UNIFI to our home here in Klang, we did not get any positive news from the internet, the media...etc. No favourable reply even from Kedai Telekoms. I even concluded that I may not be so lucky after all, to experience UNIFI. And day in, day out, we have to suffer in silence with the snail paced 1MB Streamyx which go bonkers almost everyday. Not forgetting the blood suckingly expensive Asstro.

Yes Streamyx and UNIFI belongs to Telekom Malaysia.

Then this morning, BANG!! A sound of a fall of an aluminium ladder in our back lane.

There was a commotion with chattering of human voices.

Upon investigation, we were surprised to find that there was a team of contractors pulling cables and climbing telephone poles. These are fibre optic cables. Yup, UNIFI's.

So, the end is near.

Or should we say, the 'ends' are near.

[The fibre optic cable is the top one]

It is our frustrated end of Asstro and end of Streamyx.

By end of September, perhaps?

Thank you guys.

Banyak Terima Kasih.

A Customer No More

FUCK YOU STEAMYX!!

Today is a day to remember. It is a very special day.
I am No Longer a Customer of TM Streamyx. I have, faithfully, been a customer of Telekoms since Jabatan Telecom time. That would be in 1973!!!!!!!! That was when I would only pay $7 per month and would also get 100 free calls!

I remember your 28kbps "Internet" introduction. Also the 56kbps era. Also remembered the Usenet. Had wonderful time at Soc.Culture.Malaysia.

I have been a good customer for 35 years! TM have just lost a good customer.
But do they care? Really? The shocking thing is that many were still lining up to sign up for Streamyx Combo while I was in line to cancel my Internet today!!! That goes to show that many are still clueless about 'real' broadband'. Many also really do not know that paying RM110/Combo 1Mbps per month is a 'short change'!!!! Do they have a choice?
Their so called "Broadband" sucks Big Time and all the time talking cock about Multimedia, Borderless marketing, Cyber'this' and Cyber'that'.
Is our "Fast Internet" really that fast? Bullshit!
In Klang North, getting anything more than 700Kbps is a Miracle.

Yah, go give those selected rich farkers 10Mbps, 100Mbps or even 1,000Mbps.
Our Malaysian Broadband is a sick Joke!!!
P1WiMax?Izzi?Maxis?Sellcom?DG?.....................another sick joke!
Yah! FASTEST EVER!!!! Only if you live next door to the Prime Minister!
Anyway, farewell TM. May You Rot In Hell!
