Contract with MyRepublic ending soon

[keanteac]

Good to recontract with them or jump ship ?
Any recommendations ?

If u have no issues with them why jump ship? People jump ship is because of speed and connection sucks.

just renewed with MR.

My consideration if change new provider:

need to arrange for new appt to hook up connection
need to pay for installation / activation,
Traffic lights providers customer service cannot make it
need to port tel number to new provider.

recontract with MR , top up $120 for AC88 router
so far , havent encounter big problen with MR,

I am also due for re-contract.
My contract expires a couple of weeks b4 Sep's PCshow or Comex

Tbh, the re-contract offers from MR now are not so attractive (1 month free subscription & free router installation).
There is no guarantee that MR will get the 4th telecom bid for the 1 year unlimited data sim as well.

But as I have not really experienced any issues with MR, am considering whether to save the hassle & just recontact with MR.

300mb plan for 39.90 a month

M1 offering same speed for 29.90.. Wonder if should jump.. Chief is heavy downloader

You all can wait till Sep for Comex 2016 if possible to compare the promotions.

My contract is due next month and I was in the same predicament a few weeks back. Was considering whether to stay or jump over to VQ. I don't have big issues with MR since sticking with them since they started but recently the connection had been extremely slow during the daily evening peak slots. VQ had a promo and I seriously considered jumping ship...

After getting feedback from both sides, and seeing VQ has been having lots of unscheduled downtimes lately, I recontracted with MR. Their 1 mth free with 6 mths at 50% off promo is very attractive. Since both providers have their own sets of problems, might as well go with the cheaper option... And after the last maintenance, the peak period slowdown seems to have improved a bit.

You did not consider M1 1Gbps?

Yah, I was actually thinking of getting their 1 mth free with 6 mths at 50% off promo & getting the Asus-AC66U for S$70 off.
The free 4 months+S$70 discount covers for the AC66U with a bit left as lunch money.
Even with this, MR is still more expensive than M1.
But I suppose the hassle saved by re-contracting may be worth the extra time & money.

I did briefly but decided not to in the end. Some friends said M1's connection is even worse than MR's... and having previously been bitten by Starhub, it'll take more than a good promo to get me back with one of the big 3

You're right, imagining going through the hassle of changing ISP and all the heartaches that may come with the process was also a main consideration sucking me back into MR's grip

Don't get me wrong, I wasn't bashing M1, having no actual experience with them personally

I was merely feeding back what I've heard from others and based on all available info gathered over a week, decided to recontract again with MR.

Just back from AMK renewing my contract with MR. .. so far no big issues since 4 years with them. . just give my ic for verification, activate with OTP and wait for the installation together with the router, thats it..payment in the next billing. i heard stories about MR so do to with others. . feel free to choose.

 

[haoKRR]

just get the cheapest in the market, all of them have "problems" 1 way or another.

so far my service with them is quite ok.

I jump ship from mr to m1, I see like no difference only, some more M1 cheaper got 35% off
