I subscribed to Astro B.yond last 15th May 2010. The officer in charge informed me that I will receive the service within 7 to 14 working days but till today, 9th June 2010 (or 16 working days) I am still waiting.

I called Astro on June 1st to enquire about the delay and was told by Miss U that there was technical problem with my subscription which they just discovered hence the delay. She further added that they are working on the problem and I will receive my service within 2 or 3 days. Come June 4th, there was no sign of the decoder and service being delivered as promised. I called in which they replied an officer will call me back within a few hours. No calls came but i received a miss call from them at 8.30 pm in which I was having my dinner.

I would like to voice my dissatisfaction over the service provided by Astro. A big and reputable company like Astro should have standardized rules and regulations, isn't it? NO, different officers have different rules!!!! On 25/1/2010, I went to Astro office in Ipoh to do a transfer of ownership from my husband's name to my mother's name on 1 card and terminate 2 other cards, and i was informed that i have to give 1 month's notice for that.

I would like to bring to the attention of whoever is reading this email. ASTRO service need to buck up. You guys are offering such a pathetic service which makes me wonder why such a reputable company has such bad service. No wonder customers are running away. Let me cut the chase and go to the point.

On the 23rd January, my new B�YOND decoder couldn�t be switched on and since I was very busy I didn�t bother too much. On the 24th January morning the decoder was still not able to power up. I called your CUSTOMER SERVICE in the morning and reported the problem. I got the call back from the so called TECHNICAL SUPPORT later in the evening around 7 pm. That is almost 11 hours after I made the report. I was informed that the decoder might have some hardware problem and was informed that the technician will be calling me to replace the unit.
