Streamyx = Rubbish ISP

Posted on January 6th, 2009 in Shit by DM Discuss this article »

Due to the network outage to European continent, TM announced that internet connection will be disrupted and will be fixed by 31st Decmber 2008. Later the Streamyx still sucks to the max and they announced that the connection will be fixed by 4th January 2009. Today is already 6th January and it still at large.

The problems is due to the link outage to the europe and wtf it has to do with local network or the same network under TM itself?
Access to most of the local hosted website nearly like an antique dialup, i could say worst than that! can u imagine u get all the “timeout” error when browsing, ftp and even sending email with small size attached document. Look at this for example:

Result on browser = Slow loading or partially loading content. See how funny are they? FYI, this is the ping result for their official ISP website.

I subscribed to streamyx since 2003 and what i can tell is their services in early years is far more better than today. At this very moment, actually since early december last year till now, i couldn’t even send email with attached documents or files, i couldn’t post a blog with images, i couldn’t use online banking facilities properly, i couldn’t renew some of my domain names and many more frustrations.

I did read their TOS which was sounds like, “service at our best effort only” something like that but can u see any effort by them other than stupid mega promotion on all type of medias

.. this will be a long post if i dont stop for now but what i wanted to say is Streamyx and TM is really disappointed. SUCKS! STREAMYX SUCKS! TM SUCKS!
