I guess that I am not alone in thinking that UniFi sucks. According to TheStar, consumers had their bubbles burst when the packages were announced. However, the article got some of the facts wrong.
In Singapore, a 1Gbps (gigabit per second) service – which is five times the speed of a 20Mbps connection – only costs about RM200.
A 1Gbps service is not five times the speed of a 20Mbps connection, it is fifty times the speed at a similar price point. To say that our broad-band services are expensive is just laughable. It is sad that our national monopoly cannot get its act together to give our citizens what they need. If it is about buying aggregated bandwidth from the international hubs, we have 10 times the number of citizens in this country compared to Singapore. Our bandwidth consumption should be 10 times more than Singapore. So, that excuse just does not fly.
Telekom Malaysia CEO Datuk Zamzamzairani Mohd Isa said at a press conference to announce the UniFi pricing yesterday that the measures were part of its Fair Usage Policy. This policy is a standard industry practice to ensure that all subscribers get to enjoy the same web surfing quality.
While I agree that fair-usage policies need to be implemented, it is unfair to cap the bandwidth at such a low value. The caps are hardly enough for a single user, much less a house-hold. However, they have no caps for business users and the business packages are only slightly more expensive than the home packages. So, I would recommend that consumers subscribe to the business packages instead of the home packages, if that was possible.
my office use 10MB Business package. reality speaking, streaming HD Videos from Youtube still jerky. Use IDM with speed of 900kbps.
Speedtest revealed during business time, d/l speed just gimme 3 MB while u/l 1.6 MB. dude, it cost our company RM500+ /month. Is it worth it? Yes, if you use it after 7pm…after office hours.
Demn TM. Early birds are always lab rats. Long live beruk band.

UNIFI = BULLSHIT. F**k Unifi . Upgraded to unifi and expected better and smoother lines..

Holy cow. Maybe there was a bad installation or some other problem. Instead of cursing, try contacting them to fix it. After all, you’ve paid for it.
One word..useless! Should have just sticked with my streamyx! Too late I guess!
My experience is that if you keep calling and bugging them, they try to sort things out. That said, it’s still very frustrating for the user to have to keep bugging them and calling them.
look at the hypptv guys,why cant they have the same channel like astro except for the astro in house produced channel? is there any restrictions that 2 different dth operators cannot have the same channel for e.g astro has hbo and star movies why hypptv cannot have it?? astro have been too powerful even TM not dare to compete face to face..no wonder investors take their money because there is no fair competition and laws are govern by monopolistic companies.
Quite normal for broadcasters to sign exclusive deals. That said, I don’t have Astro at home and I don’t watch HyppTV. With Unifi, you can stream everything from the Internet!
Lol what? 5times? fail la
