Thanks for your previous answer to my queries.

is there any 1 month trial/no contract plan (at a slightly more expensive price also can, like additional $10)? I want to try before I commit to any 24 month contract

Currently don't have any no contract plan available, though we do have a 12 month contracts available at a slightly higher cost.

i feel so left out and shortchanged. still paying original price of $60 while prices have been going down, and now $60 for 1Gbps... sigh.

actually u r saving money if u re-contract even with OTC, assuming u don't have any free months left. lets say u pay otc around $60 i believe.

after 6 months of bills from 49.90 per month u saved around 60bucks also which is equal wad u pay for the otc liao..

It's normal for this kind of things to drop one.. sooner or later it also benefit u.

But if u ask me, i say 1gbps for 49.90 is a good signing.. i don't really expect the price to drop any further or speed to increase since it's already unbelievable.

actually do MR do anything about ppl that re-contract with free months left.

The only promotion that I can think of in the future is to offer Ultra 1Gbps @ $89 with free 11 month subscription.

Currently promotion
Ultra 1Gbps @ $49.99 = $49.99 x 24 months = $1,199.76

Future promotion (My guess)
Ultra 1Gbps @ $89 with free 11 months subscription = $89 x 13 months = $1,157 - Based on the past promotions, I highly suspect this will be the future promotion.

or

Ultra 1Gbps @ $89 with free 10 months subscription = $89 x 14 months = $1,246

The above is purely based on my personal guess.

Why not make up your mind first THEN sign up?

Because you can't FORESEE future? The installation date for me is AT LEAST half a year away from now. There maybe changes, new deals, etc. No one knows.

 

[loftystew]

I think Lawrence has mentioned that before the installation. MR will call you to confirm and if you decided not to sign up for the 1Gbps then they will just cancel your application without any penalties.

can =).

Thanks for the clarification.

actually i think they stop doing the free months thing already.. coz it's quite bothersome for people to lose their free months if they recontract/upgrade.

It is down to individuals either to enjoy the cost savings upon completion of their existing contracts or start to enjoy the cost savings after a few months after breakdown.

Sad to say I think its highly likely .I gonna wait and be patient too this time cause I dislike getting short end of the stick.

I'm currently paying $59 per month. I think I'm supposed to get 2-3 months free at the end of my contract. So if I sign up for this new 1gbps thing not only do I have to pay for the OTC, on top of that all my free months gone case liao?

What's my current plan anyway, 100Mbps or 150Mbps etc...? Thanks.

My customer id no. is : C1005470

For those that are enjoying free months. Go ahead and sign up and request for installation after the end of current contract.

My contract has free months. It is ending Oct 2014. Which are the free months left?

So if I upgrade to ULTRA and ask for waiver for installation, what about the remaining free months I'm entitled? (since 2 months will be worth more than $58 of installation).

You can wait for future promotions (if there is) if your contract still has a long way to go.

If I never remember wrongly, the free months are either 11th, 12th, 22nd, 23rd and 24th month or 10th, 11th, 12th, 23rd and 24th month

I think your remaining free months will be forfeited because upgrading to Ultra 1Gbps will overwrite your existing contract.

No Internet connection for both wired and wireless?

wireless; didn't try wired.

 

[xRenol]

wireless; didn't try wired.

You can test with your wired connection via the router.

If still no Internet connection, try connect directly to the ONT.

I'm thinking if it's possible to install the 1Gbps at a later date. As my current contract ends in June, it will be good if the 1Gbps installation can be after that. So that at the same time I can complete my free months + enjoy the current price.

 

[ilovetoeat]

I'm an existing customer on 59 per month 100 Mbps, if I upgrade, will I lose out on the 6 months waiver?
