MyRepublic fibre - Part 4

[misato]

I highly doubt this is possible though..

It depends on MR thou. They can be nice guy or nasty ass***. By right, once the service has been commission, you can take everything you have signed on the contract as fully enforceable and in the clause is the penalty and under what conditions can a subscribers terminate. The last time I read the various ISP contract terms.. nothing is said on giving user the rights to determine the conditions for no-penalty termination. Thus if you look at it from this angle, only and only the ISP has the rights to waive off any outstanding and potential cost incurred or lost due to the early termination of contract.

* This advice is not MR specific, it applies to all contracts, specifically ISP service contract. Sadly, the Singapore law does give a flying f**k on what end user thinks and basic consumer protection is very much next to nothing except for the very gray lemon law.

Yeah, only MR can decide whether to terminate ur contract w/o penalties or not. If he simply just ask his bank not to pay for this month bill, he will get double bill for next month. If he tries to argue, got chance they can cut the internet till he pay the bills.

It would be interesting if he actually does it. Good case study for all of us here.

Usually the end user is the biggest loser in this case. Most ISP has a late payment penalty clause.. and soon subscriber will be forced to pay bill + late penalty and still no internet to use and still under contract. Usually in such a losing case, best is go the soft approach and persuade ISP to waive off instead of just cut payment.

Able to use a download manager to accelerate the dl speeds?

My modem LOS is blinking red. As usual, no one will pick up the phone line. I have to send email again. This is the second time it has happened. The last time it took them 2 days to call me.

 

[alamakazim]

the only way... is to boycott them

tell your friends and relatives, DO NOT SIGN UP with Myrepublic until they fix everything and hopefully compensate the affected users

 

[ChiSholm]

Yes, their level of service has gone down the drain. So disappointing.

[gongkia2000]

Mine are similar. Every night its like that. Unacceptable

 

[souler87]

Before I upgrade my contract from 100mbps to 300mbps I usually can get 90+ over wifi. After upgrade, It dropped to 13 like most of you guys are facing.

Sometime really don't fixed what is not faulty. Blame my itchy brain.

 

[mcmxcii]

MyRepublic at night...

...slow, slow, SLOW!!!

ARGH.

 

[The_King]

my plan ending soon.

so i lam looking for a new isp. currently using cable very stable at 32Mbps always all day, all night. any hours

but when i search around, MR thread always have the most complain. vq + m1 + singtel combine their complain so cant top MR

 

[jackycar]

Change to VQ la. No complains at all, amazing speed. Confirm worth the price

 

[justfortrading]

It's affecting my streaming. Playing smoothly in the day but lag like siao in the night.

Too bad football streaming is in the night. If not solved by their update on Monday, I will recontract M1's 1gbps
