the problem is , i got the same call from MR CSO, stating that installation will not be charged as contract left 1 year. That is why I sign up.

Only for recontract upon contract renewal then the OTC is not applicable.
Else for upgrader, OTC is applicable.

Did MR Field Engineer setup any ASUS N56U router during the installation?

I wasnt around during the installation. The only thing I saw when I came home is the new Modem for the 1Gbps. I am using my own N66U purchased elsewhere.

Wired connection through my N66U obviously. Happy enough.

with all the "negative" comments in this thread, I was initially worried that my appointment which was today would end up to be "invalid/not scheduled" that i had called the service center to ensure that the appointment today was going to happen as planned and the CSO ensured it.

to my delight, the technician came around 3pm (appointment was 2-6pm) with the router i had ordered (AC68U) and he even gave me some tips on the network structure since my place is a new estate.

so all in all, the setup was smooth and the internet is working fine. Didn't get to test the speed though, since i've not moved in to my new place yet. hopefully this will cheer the MyRepublic team up abit. lol :s13:

Thanks. Chatted with MR CSO online and Billing dept has emailed me they will credit the incorrect charges of $127 back to me which can be used to pay for August onwards bill. :)

No problem. dun worry, if got issue they will check. sometime is human error.

My installation last week went without a hitch as well. Everything was done properly and there was no complaint. I know there are grouses and dissatisfaction registered on the forum but so far, I have had pretty good dealings with MR's customer service and their internet performance.

Yes, there are speed fluctuations occasionally but nothing unreasonable. After the 1 Gbps upgrade, my download speeds have been blistering fast mostly. Any bottleneck is purely with my N66U's wifi throughput. Direct to ONT, it ranges between 900 to 945...

Not everyone has an issue paying more for their internet access but I have a limited budget monthly for this, and MR has been pretty good striking a decent balance between price, performance and acceptable customer service.

Just my2 sen... :s13:

MY HOMEVOICE IS STILL NOT WORKING SINCE INSTALLATION ON 14/07/14(Customer ID C1000832). Called in so many times, feedback through facebook&hardwarezone and no one from myrepublic is taking care of my case now. This is the kind of poor customer service i get, or u all just cannot figure out why my homevoice is not working. Looks like whenever u all cant fix the problem, u all just leave it hanging. Worst thing is, i saw my tax invoice of 49 dollars homevoice INSTALLATION&ACTIVATION CHARGE already issued. In what way is my homevoice installed/activated? 28 July is my next pay cycle, dont force me to inform the bank to stop paying. Paying for the service that is not even activated/usable is NOT going to happen.

They scheduled to do my optical network upgrade today at 2-6 pm but until now still haven't show up. My internet has been cut and they are not answering their customer service hotline. Will definitely switch ISP as soon as I can, I never encountered a company as irresponsible as MyRepublic.

Update: Managed to reach their CSO, gave me some lame reason about how their technician called and a lady (I'm a guy) told him she didn't known of any appointment hence the guy didn't show up. Now I have to reschedule the installation and have no internet connection till then.

By right, OTC is applicable since the installation date is before the contract ends. Maybe MR will just waiver off the OTC since the difference is like a few days but best is to email MR to have black and white on the OTC waiver.
