This is related to my previous entry about MAXIS here and UniFi here. Let’s start off with MAXIS first. Since I purchased the modem in December 2009 until today, the connection is very unstable and the speed is terrible. No wonder many people call it Beruk-band instead of Broadband…
So, last week I made another round of complaint to MAXIS as a followup to my previous complaint in December 2009. They told me that they are upgrading the services at my area and it should be completed latest by April 2010. Now, it’s already May 2010 and I have not seen any improvement to the broadband services in my area, Seksyen 9, Shah Alam.
The asked me for some readings and I have sent them the speed test results that I made using Speedtest.net. While this modem has been tested to reach up to 7.2 Mbps in downtown KL, the speed recorded at my area was a lousy 0.12 Mbps for downloading and 0.10 Mbps for uploading.

Isn’t that pathetic or what… Beruk betul… At the same time I tested my old-school Jaring Wireless Broadband connected via the aging Somaport and look at the results below:

It managed to hit 2.09 Mbps and 0.43 Mbps for downloading and uploading respectively. Even the ping speed was much faster. Anyway, I would email MAXIS again since I have not received any response after I sent them my readings. Anyway, I did not really need the MAXIS broadband at home since the Jaring box is connected via a 4-port router. The only time I would need it is when all 4 ports are being used…
Now let’s talk about UniFi. I sent them an email regarding their progress for my area and I got a not so encouraging reply from their customer services. That prompted me to response with this:
Dear UniFi,
It is already over a month and it is rather sad to know that a location smack in the middle of Shah Alam and very close to KL could not enjoy such services despite the big hoo-haa that the government is promoting more usage and exposure of high speed internet services… Is there any plan or it is just simply an area that would not be contributing to the profit of Unifi? Some explanation would be appreciated so that I could share with thousands more people who are waiting for the outcome of my hunting for a faster broadband services in Malaysia.
Then their reply tone changed a bit and asked for my full address to be forwarded to their management… So, it looks like high speed broadband is still to far away from me and I have to stick to my Jaring for many more years… Will be disturbing them again next month!
MAXIS, buck up! UniFi, Speed Up!

I noticed that one transaction was missing from my Touch n’ Go eStatement and it was one of the biggest transaction for the month. It was a RM21.00 transaction for a trip from Jabor to Karak… That might affect the 20% rebate amount for the month of February… Banyak tuh!
As usual, I called up the online customer services to give them the benefit of the doubt that this time it would not be another bad experience. I spoke to a person called Ms Tagala… It didn’t take long for me to anticipate another row with the phone service people… duh…
I told her that I needed an assurance that the amount would be reflected accordingly for my rebate and she refused to give me a straight answer by saying that it was a common thing that always happened to their system… What a system that they have… Finally, I agreed to have a fax the missing details to me for my reference if needed. And that’s when the nightmare started…
When I checked the fax machine the next day, there was a cover page saying a total of six pages but the rest of the pages were not there.
So, I called up again and this time a guy called Mr Fibroid answered and he promised to fax me a fresh copy. Again, I checked the fax machine. It was neither a fresh fax copy, since Ms Tagala’s name was on the fax cover and again, only the cover page was there.
I had to give them a call for the third time and Mr Fibroid was there again and asked me to wait at the fax machine. I waited… and waited… and waited… This time, not even the cover page appeared! Bodoh betul!
I then made the fourth call and another lady picked up asking for my card number again… I told her, “You guys are really ridiculous” and I put down the phone.
Then I made the fifth call and this time Ms Tagala picked up and I told her about her fax problem. She did not even apologize and told me that she would fax another copy… Memang la bengong minah ni…. I told her she can fax it to herself since I want my copy emailed to me. She just said ok… It was like talking to a zombie… without the usual zombie gnarling sounds or whatever sounds that zombies make….

Hunting for Hotlink
On Friday May 15th, 2009, my wife and I went to KLCC to meet up her friend who would be going back to Jakarta. One of the things that she wanted him to bring back is an activated Maxis Hotlink SIM card for someone there. Somehow, due to some technical problems with my short term memory retaining capabilities, I had forgotten to purchase the card from the shop near my office.
So, right after dinner, all of us decided to walk over to the LRT station where they normally would have those prepaid cards sold there. It was not really a normal walk for me as my son had dedicated me to carry him all the way there. If you have been to the Suria Mall in KLCC, then try to imagine carrying a a load of more than 12kg from the centre court to the LRT station…
