Ridiculous P1 Wimax upfront fees

advertisement.gif

With a RM999 for a modem fee, RM100 registration fee and RM50 activation fee (first bill) we as normal user can say goodbye to taste Wimax.

Check out their package. I guess we just had to wait for the cooling off period for the price of the modem to drop. Until now just enjoy Screamyx and Celcom Narrowband. :-p

    According to P1 official website, it shows that the modem is free of charge for current promotion.
    However I can’t find further information to prove that statement.

    I totally agree with you on the upfront payment.. had to sacrifice my whole month salary just for the initial payment…

    Guess its new technology and they’re charging us consumers a bombshell.

    Kay, this screenshot people manage to get it before it taken down by them.

    I hope they will restructure the payment. :-)

    Yes the current promotion will give a free modem, but the registration and activation fees still applied.

    How about other people in Penang for example who can’t enjoy this promotion when Wimax get here. I do hope they will extent this sweet promotion for some time.

    the modem is now free but it is still not worth any money since the coverage is only at certain areas.

    if wirelessKL is any indication of their consistency and reliability of their service, I say forget it. Give it a miss until they get their sht together.

    Just cos you’re not making money out of the wirelesssKL project doesn’t mean you abandon it entirely. Postponing your delivery date just gives a bad impression of the company. How would I know that they won’t have the same type of attitude when it comes to servicing the RM59 monthly user as opposed to those shelling out RM150?

    dude..this promotion is a crap..if u subscribe for 1 or 2 year than oni u will get the modem free..but u will tied with contract..

    beside that,their connection is sucks..
    from my experience and my frenz,P1 alwiz have downtime each and everyday..whenever i called their call centre,thy claims that they already assigned my case to their technician department but no feedback until now.. what a superb company??

    When my fren registered,they claims that it can support until 15-20th floor,but after registered their call centre claims it only can support until 7-8th floor… Which one is true?
    Call centre..cos my fren staying in 16th floor but the he unable to use the connection even a single day..

    And each time,i have to repeat my contact number and name for their reference..my gosh..
    Im juz sick of it edi..
    Now,if i want to terminate the service,i have to walk over to their ugly building in Jln Templer..

    R they going to pay me the petrol fee?

    No..and even the best part is i oni got RM 50.00 from my registration refund..
    thy claims that the balance Rm 50.00 for admin fees..(oh god..i was regret what i did and why i choose this stupid Wimax)..

    Choose wisely,frenz..

    Yeah I truly agreed with u Prince Darkness.

    P1 ( Wimax ) is really a stupid wireless product that had been launch by Packet One.
    They claimed to be the First one to launch this STUPID service but its really Sucks.
    I got few frens who is working in P1 office in Jln Templer. They said every day got down time. When call to their customer service to check on the connection problem or to check on previous problem means they always will say their Network or Technical Team is looking on this. ( How long do they need to solve it – 2 weeks ah? )
    Then why are saying this is a different Wireless Technology. It’s seem to be the same as other wireless connection in the market.
    Do you ppl know some thing about P1 Wimax. They got this policy in their T&C to LIMIT the connection when reached 20G. ( P1 is cheating all the customer’s on this )
    Even their CEO Mr. Michael Lai said P1 Wimax service is unlimited access in one of TV program.
    They claimed that is Mobility. ( Big Liar ). How can we get power supply if we are on the move. Bullshit la.
    However, streamyx or other provider in the market are abit better this P1.

    Pls ppl don’t trust this STUPID product and cancel your other Internet service.

    Just wait n See

    i agreed! the service is actually crap. i lives in bandar baru sentul, and the connection here is like ‘biskut marie’. sometimes it’s good but most of the times it’s bad. and please don’t believe those web site that claims this heaven-sent wireless bullshit. i think they were paid to promote this thing.

    I think P1 should concentrate to stabilize the connectivity before expanding it to other areas. Im living in Damansara Kim which they claim that the connection is covered. Out of 24 hours, i am only able to connect for 4 hours. This is really a big problem that they are facing, down time and stability issue. Furthermore, the modem has to be put at a specific place, facing out of the window. If i turn it abit, i get disconnected. More frustrating is that, the next day, that specific place i usually put, does not connect online at all… then i have to start hunting for a new location in my house.

    Guys, do you know that wimax is operating at 3.5Ghz or more?
    This is Micowave signal and its no good to your health!
    The moment you bring in their modem/transceiver, you will allow the rf to send out for over the 50km radius (as mentioned by CEO P1).
    Do you know that even your microwave oven is abt 2.4Ghz? thus the higher the frequency the higher your chances to get cooked….

    Did you know that WiMAX in Malaysia runs on 2.3GHz? Even your wifi is also running on 2.4GHz. If WiMAX can make you cooked, that all WiFi in the country will cook all Malaysian Alive. Not forgetting your handphone you put in your pocket, you balls are hard boil egg if what you say is true.

    I suppose Mike Lai is experiencing sleepless nights just as similar during his stint with TM Net. Yup he was the TM Net boss, with Marketing as his forte, though he was an Electrical Engineer by vocational training ( i was told from insight source). Former Streamyx upholder and then on to P1? Need we say more? We need ENGINEERS heart right on top this corporation hirarchy fellas…Certainly, it’s not just all about the money right?

    Borrowed friend’s modem a few weeks ago and it was very fast, very ok. So decided to get one myself. And it SUCKS! Takes hours to get a connection. Speed was 1.8Mbps for a few MINUTES, then it went down to 12kbps!!! Now the pages aren’t even loading. Good thing this happened while still in trial period.

    Well guys and gals really needed an internet immediately due lots of on9 jobs. I tried for a week, pre-registered got the free modem. I was outrageous on the 1st day with blistering speed downloaded a movie from utorrent took me abt 40 minutes. After that it sucked for a week, can’t even googled takes loading a page for 2 minutes.(Even my dial-up is faster) Fortunately it was on my trial period, then they tell me my home street is not covered. How cruel was that…just returned the modem, felt better P1 was all hype no substance…now have to return my life in a CC.

    I am wimax user myself and i am an agent for wimax. frankly speaking, wimax is really moving at its top speed provided your modem is facing the station. the station is usually in the middle of one poligon. and if you are living on the edges of the poligon then be wary. upload and downloads from the internet is superbly fast. p2p will be a little slow compared to streaming and buffering on the internet.so whatever you are downloading from torrent or whatsoever, just be patient!! Afterall, it really depends on your location! contact me if there is any enquiries on wimax at suetee.loh@myccs.com…Happy WiMaxinG!!

    Then good for the people which got the amazing speed. My comment was based on what I got during the trial period. But anyway maybe in a year or two I will try again. Now using Umobile eventhough its not microwave signal, it does fare well RM78,monthly & unlimited.

    P1 WiMax is rapidly expanding their coverage now, and they’re going to cover approximately 45% of Malaysia by the year 2010. In fact, they’ve already got 25% of Malaysia within coverage at the moment. For the people who are within coverage, the speed is crazy fast, and it should remain just as fast no matter how many users there are, cuz P1 WiMax is planning to build 900 towers, which is more than any WiMax telco in Malaysia. Izzi’s nice, but i believe that P1 WiMax will go much further than all the other broadbands in the long run… including Streamyx. =)

    Oh, for those who are not aware of it, there are 2 different WiMax providers in Malaysia, which are Amax WiMax and P1 WiMax. They both use the same tecnology which is WiMax, but they are both individual companies. The one i was talking about in my post before this regarding the coverage and etc, is referring to the P1 WiMax, not Amax. =P

    p.s. – those of you who had bad connections with WiMax are probably not within coverage yet. Try it again in future when you are in coverage. The speed is AWESOME!!!

    had subscribe and using Wimax for 2 months. When i first try out the 15 days free trial period, the speed is reasonable and can’t complaint anything cause the entry level home user package much cheaper than maxis broadband.

    However, after the 3-4 week, my nightmare comes.

    For the past 3 weeks i hardly could connect to the internet.
    I had call more than 15-18 times to cry for support but so far non of the customer service and support engineer can really solve my problem.

    I was given tons of excuses such as and pointing me to the wrong direction.

    When i subscibe the package, then check my coverage and says everything it’s fine. But now when i got problem, they tell me mayb your base station is not strong and change the other side pointing to another base station. So i told the customer service that, first my modem is on green light and nothing to do with based station, seocndsly if i follow his advise, means i have to set behind my kitchen to connect to the direction he mention. Well, that doesn’t make sense for me to get WIMAX, right?

    The is another csutomer service say call me back for support but never, when i call them up 2 days later, their excuses to me is that customer service is on leave lar, so no one free to follow your case.

    Got another funny convrsation is, the custoerm serice say my acount is terminated, maybe that’s why i cant connect to internet. i told the custoemr service i got all the payment confirmation that there is noithing worng with my payment but he say nothing much he can do.

    For those who want to get WIMAX, hope you get more opinions from exisitng users b4 jump ship.

    As for me, maybe i’m the lucky one but honestly, their support is HORRIBLE and signal consistency is not there. In the end, what i pay for is to get more frustration.

    If P1 is not ready for WIMAX, pls solve all your technical issues and upgrade your customer service level before launching it. IT’s a disgrace!!!

    better dont use. connection not stable. depends on location. sumtimes when u r in the green polygon, means in gud coverage, u still get bad service. beware for those located in kepong, subang n klang. always having downtime. more over, the modem needs to face base station and facing to window. what if to face base station, but there’s no window, only damn wall. so how u can get the connection rite. Just dont simply believe in sumting “wireless”.

    as you should know, this wimax thing is actually quite a new thing, even around the globe, so at the starting stage they sure facing a lot of problem like slow speed and so, especially when u r not in the middle of the coverage.
    as for the monthly price, i personally think that is definately not cheap, but rather fair price. slightly higher than streamyx, but the speed also high. jus the modem price is unreasonable, as for registration and activation fees and so, streamyx charge a similar fees also.
    i myself r not a user of wimax, though i wanted to get one. but the reason that stop me from doing so is their new policy of fair usage policy which doesnt exist ealier. i personally think that is completely not good, cause i m a heavy downloader, and 20gb doesnt do much thing, juz a couple of games, movie n gone.
    so, unless they remove that policy, i m going to stuck with streamyx, which not so satisfying.

    i myself r not a user of wimax, though i wanted to get one. but the reason that stop me from doing so is their new policy of fair usage policy which doesnt exist ealier. i personally think that is completely not good, cause i m a heavy downloader, and 20gb doesnt do much thing, juz a couple of games, movie n gone.
    so, unless they remove that policy, i m going to stuck with streamyx, which not so satisfying.

    U know what, I am truly satisfied with the service. With just rm49 per mth I am amazed with the service offered. It depends on the area you are in. As far as I know you can check either through sms or website whether you are in coverage or not. Even Wimax people are happy to go to your place to check the availability signal (thats what they offered me). FYI, previously, I had subcribed to one of the 3G broadband cos.(blue colored co.). At first I thought I’ve made a good choice but to my regret I ended up paying for nothing for months. The line was terribly bad. Well, that was a lesson well learnt. Check first before you sign up to any subcription. You would end up a happy user like me. Look before U leap…my advice…..

    Well, as i know P1 wimax are quite stable at certain area, sometime you might experience slow connection, the reason is not because of high traffic or unstable connection. mainly because of their farkiong DNS server, sometime they can’t resolve the Domain name, thats why it take HOURS to load a page. they should farking upgrade their DNS server.

    So if you facing problem loading a page, try to right click your connection manager, adn change the DNS server IP to streamyx one, 202.188.1.5 and 202.188.0.133 or use OPEN DNS

    Hi guys

    I am a user of P1 Wimax and guess what the service really SULKS X 100. They advertised at 10MBPS Speed and sid that average speed is at 1MB to 3 MB but most of the time get 0.6 – 0.7MB. When i complian they say that I am at 13th Floor.. Yaeh right if I had not been to Penang i would not have said this.. cause in Penang can get 3MB on 21st Floor. Complained for around 1 month now and as one of the post said technical people still looking into the matter.
    Real bastards.

    IF ANYONE IS THINKING OF USING THIS SERVICE THINK 1000X first. DO NOT USE IT AS I THINK THEY HAVE POOR QUALITY STAFF AND ALSO EQUIPTMENT.

    I am stuck because of my stupidity and greed as I applied for free net book package. If I cancell I will have to pay for the netbook myself!

    I think I want to comp[lian to MCMC as I cannot tahan already.

  • http://blog.syafril.com/ Universal Cynic

    I’m thinking of going over to Amax. I wonder if it’s good (even a tiny bit better than TM is good enough)? It doesn’t have the stupid bandwidth restriction like P1, or the ridiculous modem price.. and now they’re providing free wifi access point to go with the multiuser modem.

    Anyone have any experience? I saw wifi signals in my area that seems to be from a guy who connects it to Amax (either that’s Amax’s staff putting it in the wifi AP or the guy really loves Amax…)..

    friends, if you have problems with P1 please complain to MCMC at their website.

    That will force them to refund you your money or give you a discount!

    P1 says I have max out my 20G since 1 week ago and I will have to wait for another 12 more days before I can get better speed. To terminate I will have to pay them RM999. If watching YouTube and Facebook on an average 3 hours a day will max out 20G in 2 weeks, WHAT A RIP OFF. I HOPE YOU DO NOT FALL INTO THE TRAP. Don’t believe, then I welcome you to the HATE P1 Wimax Club and Happy Stessing.

    I want to say that P1 Wimax Is A Shit Who Does Not Care About It’s Customers!
    I am very pissed off with P1.

    In August I signed up for P1 Wimax. I test runned it and within the week I found that it is not suitable for my purpose. I signed the cancellation document and told them to write the cheque to my wife or company because I do not have a bank account to deposit the refund cheque.

    Despite the cancellation procedure, I still get billed. I wrote back after a few billings to tell them off them up regarding their inefficiency.

    When no refund was forthcoming after the 45days was up and long after 90 days, I called customer service. Apparently there is no record of my cancellation. They probably lost my documents. They asked that I go to their office to settle this matter! (So I am being penalized for their crappy work)

    I told them I want their phone number to talk to the accounts department. The call centre refused to give me the number! They want me to go there! Not satisfied, I called my Vendor in Subang Jaya and apparently I was right in that they misplaced the document.

    Just few days ago, I got my cheque. Even then, they did not follow instructions despite me given WRITTEN instructions to that effect. It had my name on it and I already told them to put to my company’s or wife’s name.

    Of course that got me pretty mad. I would have been neutral but because they keep fucking up and delayed my refund, I got REALLY MAD.

    To me this is one FUCKED UP COMPANY who DO NOT CARE about CUSTOMER’S RELATIONS. The blocked us from reaching administration and customer service so that the directors can sit on their cushy chairs and let the customers be. I am totally pissed off!

    I’m wanting to try out amax too. But sadly the coverage are very limited now. Are you on amax now? Could you give us more insight?

    I heard that amax didn’t apply any bandwidth limitation right now. That’s really a good news. But I doubt that gonna last forever ain’t it?
