Opinion: Still no billing from YES4G!

YTL’s super fast YES4G is now 2-months old and it broke what was promised, again- YTL YES FAILED to issue monthly bill on Jan 19. I’m not surprised! It is funny that the big bosses talk about how they plan to change our broadband service,  promising true 4G broadband and the way we pay for [...]

YTL YES to issue monthly bill on Jan 19

There has been more update since YTL YES enabled the “summary billing” just after my blog post. In an official response to me via SKMM, YTL said that I will receive a bill between 19 December 2010 to 19 Jan 2011 on the 19 Jan 2011. However the response gave no further details such as [...]

(UPDATE 1)Opinion: Slow speeds, still no billing on YES4G

UPDATE 1: YTL YES today allowed customers to view their usage summary, although I’m not sure how frequent this usage summary is updated(supposedly it has to be by per-minute update). I’ve been informed that a monthly itemised bill will be issued to all subscribers on January 19, 2011. _____________________________________________________________ There’s still no billing for YTL’s [...]

Opinion: YES 4G still “paralysed” 1-month after launch

It has been a month since YTL launched its nationwide 4G network. The WiMAX operator had a terrible start since day 1 of launch and continues to be having problems with its service. As a customer myself, I consider the service to be “paralysed”as I’m unable to check my usage when the service is billed [...]

ITU: 4G is a marketing term

There has been lots of talks since the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) announced that current mobile technology including WiMAX & LTE don’t qualify as 4G. However in a recent update, ITU has clarified its messaging regarding 4G, which is recognized as a marketing term and not used to define a particular standard. It also clearly [...]

YTL and its “700Mhz”

Negative headlines seem to have a thing for YTL, as barely two weeks after their marred launching of the YES4G mobile internet service, comes yet another barrage of controversy. This time however, it doesn’t involve shoddy naming conventions or inaccessible websites, but something of a much larger scale – spectrum allocation. According to a mysterious [...]

When YTL says Yes, everyone seems to just agree!

This last week probably witnessed the biggest advertising whitewash Malaysia has ever seen. If you thought YTL Communications’ 4G network launch, Yes, was a big bang, wait till you learn about how this innovative branding idea may be a mixture of cheek, dare and hubris. For as long as I can remember Australian telco network [...]

Opinion: Telco Industry says NO to YTL

Media reports over the past weeks said that the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (SKMM) had issued 80MHz of the 700MHz spectrum to YTL, which had a “highly unsuccessful” launch of its long-delayed YES 4G WIMAX service. While SKMM is saying no assignment had been issued to YTL for them to offer pay TV broadcasting [...]

YES ID account page now accessible

Since my last post yesterday titled “Hackers might know your YES ID Password“, YTL today has opened up their YES ID account page for customers. While the site was loading extremely slow on Streamyx at the point of writing, customers can check(I have not tested yet) their account number, account balance, change settings, change password [...]

Hackers might know your YES ID Password

Update 1: According to a friend of mine, www.yes.my is using a mixture of architecture including Microsoft at the moment. ——————————————————————————————- There has been so many issues with YTL’s newly launched “world class” YES WiMAX aka self claimed “4G network” recently. From registration, login, billing, network, support to marketing- there seems to be errors and [...]

Analysts: Consumers unlikely to say YES!

“Malaysians generally adopt the wait-and-see approach, so I doubt we will see many people jumping on the bandwagon,” said an analyst from a local bank-backed research house. “But then again, subscribing to voice and data services is not like buying a property. Property is long-term, but for these services, if I am not satisfied with [...]

Illegal YES! Stormtroopers at Lot10

That’s right folks, these Stormtroopers or better known as YES Troopers are probably illegal and does not have the license/permit/visa/approval from Lucasfilm Ltd. This could be trademark infringement of their property (Lucasfilm Ltd.) and YTL 4GGGG could be in trouble if they are using the “Stormtroopers” without permission. Now who wants to be the Jedi [...]
