Maxis and Astro have been offering a combo package for internet, IPTV and Astro’s satellite TV since last year. This year, the companies are upping the ante with even faster packages to cater to a more digital audience.
The packages offered by the partnership are essentially an combination of the preexisting offerings already available from the companies. However, Astro is offering a limited 2-year rebate for those subscribing to their higher packages. This rebate is in addition to the MYR5 rebate for those using the auto-debit service. Subscribers will get either an MYR15 or MYR25 monthly rebate for 24 months depending on their subscription.
The breakdown of the costings are summarised in the table we created below. Do note that the prices for Astro are their minimum at each level, there are packages that are more expensive that are not reflected in the table. Prices are also not inclusive of the 6% SST.
Users who are interested in subscribing to the new packages can visit the official Astro broadband website. The offer is not limited to new subscribers, preexisting Astro subscribers can opt to add on the Maxis internet packages to their subscription. Do note that on higher speeds, Maxis is offering free Mesh routers for new sign ups only. Users who add-on the internet package will not be eligible for the mesh router.
However, Astro is offering a free upgrade to their new Ultra box which features Cloud Recording and a new interface for all subscribers. For more details, visit https://product.astro.com.my/broadband/offers.
