Yay! Free upgrade by TM is here. Based on the Broadband Improvement Plan announced by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak in his Budget 2017 speech, TM is offering free speed upgrades to its existing customers across its services TM Homeline, and Streamyx and UniFi for residential customers. The offers are valid before February 2017 and it benefits UniFi customers the most. Those on Unifi Advance Plan 30Mbps (megabits per second) will be upgraded to 50Mbps, for instance. If you are subscribed to multiple services, you will get speed upgrades to all of them as long as you are eligible. The disappointing part is for Streamyx customers.

In a blog post, Facebook-owned WhatsApp finally announced that it will be fully free! The minimal US$0.99 subscription fee (after free use for 1 year) is not longer applicable to all users. This is a great move by WhatsApp since many users have switched to other platforms once their free subscription is over. The growing competition actually comes from Telegram and WeChat which are available for free (although the later seems to be filled with ad-based texts messages). The company stated that: “Many WhatsApp users don’t have a debit or credit card number and they worried they’d lose access to their friends and family after their first year. So over the next several weeks, we’ll remove fees from the different versions of our app and…

TM should really consider expanding the coverage to the university areas in Kota Samarahan since the population of students are growing rapidly and they are in need of decent broadband connection.
