In the afternoon during the lunch hour, I drove purposely to TM to downgrade the Streamyx package. I had been using Streamyx since late 2005 till now ported from Penang to Ipoh on the RM88 1Mbps free modem package. It was however still require to service the monthly rental of RM26 ++ and so the total packaged cost will be at RM115.
I used to download 24 x 7 for movies when you are around as the movie were always your accompany and favourites during leisure. It was at least one thing I will do it daily for you to search and download the latest series. Now, it is required any longer as I seldom or do not watch these movie. And so, I decided to cut down the download speed from 1Mbps to 384Kbps for my night surfing and download. I believed it would still meet my demand. In contrast, the true benefit would be that I would save RM50 each month because of the change of package. Besides, if I calculate the electricity cost of almost 24 hours PC times per day for a month which will equal to approximate RM35 per month, then the total saving would transfer to RM85. Not bad!
At least I am making way and progress to cost save and avoid.
Nevertheless, the waiting to make this to reality really annoyed me. TM never improves the level of service to its client. I would praise for Immigration department for their fast passport processing as I renewed the international passport within half an hour including of waiting time. In comparison, the waiting duration for TM was 45 minutes althought there were really 4 of them in front of me. The actual process for the request to downgrade took on 3 minutes but I needed to wait for 15x longer. No longer I called Streamyx as Slowmyx!
