At the same time, we are migrating existing Streamyx customers who are not within our unifi fibre and LTE coverage areas to the new unifi Lite plan at a discounted price at RM69/month first so they could enjoy the benefits of being part of our unifi family while waiting for the network expansion. One of the key benefits is to enjoy free door-to-door service assurance within two (2) hours starting with five (5) areas, which are Shah Alam, Bangsar/Pantai Dalam, Johor Bahru, Butterworth and Georgetown, starting October 2019. We remain committed to expanding beyond these 5 areas to deliver an enhanced internet experience for all existing and future customers nationwide.”

With the strong support and trust given to TM, we will continuously work closely with the Government, the Ministry and MCMC to effectively deliver high speed broadband experience; expanding fibre and LTE coverage nationwide towards realising Malaysia’s Digital Nation aspirations.”
