This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

Charges are too expensive but repeat same show again and again even for months the same movies repeated. Hidden charges without notifying customers - change package RM10.00, reconnection RM20.00. Do they give discount as a rebate during service not available due to rain ! Cant do our own selection of what package we want - compulsary package ! If service not good we are not allowed to terminate - TERM AND CONDITION ! Why we need to pay for service that is not good !

At first I subscribed Njoi only, after few months the sales department keep calling me to upgrate to Astro Family package, offer me for 6 month free. After I have confirm, they never keep to their promise, astro charge me ever month instead of free.
I want to terminate the service but can not, due to the contract "terms and condition".
3 months ago I can't watch any program. I call customer service to complain, they resetting the system can not work and they tell me need to send technician & charges is RM63.00.
The technician come to my house on 3/6/2019 to change a small parts & go tell me warranty for 3 months. On 4/9/2019 same thing happen, I call customer service to complain, they said need to send technician again & charges RM63.00 because warranty is over, if technician come this time, will the same thing happen again after 3 months ?
So request to terminate the service on the sport. they need to verified name I.C, phone no, full address with post code, payment by cash or online, email address ...worse than bank. Even bank only verified 3 question, to terminate "ASTRO SERVICE" need to verified more than that, if subscribe only require name & IC . They say company policy, "STUPID POLICY"
At last I want to said is don't ever subscribe "ASTRO"

Yes, Astro service really bad, all of you better check your bill closely, they may simply charge you, or computation may be conveniently wrong.

I have subscribed to Astro IPTV and very disappointed with the Maxis broadband charges. With the current price cut from all the providers such as MAXIS, regret to say that this does not apply to IPTV subscribers. You cannot upgrade or change to the price as offered by the provider. Astro has their own pricing.
Worst scenario is I have changed to Fibre Optic (without the satellite dish) beginning of this year without realizing that I have unknowingly entered a new contract for 2 years. And if I want to terminate this contract, I have to pay a penalty of RM100 per month which amounts to RM1600 for my case. I'm unable to do anything except to change my selection of channels and wait till my contract expires. It's not wise to upgrade the broadband MAXIS at Astro's price. So for those who intends to subscribe to IPTV, think twice.

Trying to discuss anything from poor service quality to receptive sports channels ie Cricket etc and multi room issues plus the fact that Penang Island no longer has an Astro office is bewildering . Astro, arguably one of the worst TV services in the world. If you are mat salleh, like me, a TEN year customer, it’s even worse.

YES! Astro service leaves a lot to be desired. I have been an astro customer for 14 years. I only keep it for my helper to watch TV, as she doesn't know how to use the computer. I forgot to pay my bill, which is my fault, but then i pay my bill and try to disconnect it and they tell me we cant do perform any orders on the account UNLESS i CONNECT my account again. so they charge me another RM20 to reconnect and then i have to give them another month's notice! All the above complaints are true! Lousy service when it rains, multiple repeats, (which only suits those of us who fall asleep during the program, so that we can catch it again, in 4 hours!) and service which is sadly lacking. All this because they have a monopoly on the industry! Have finally cancelled my service. Now i have to wait 1 more month for them to get another set of payments from me and then if i don't "RETURN" the decoder and dish in "GOOD" order, they can charge me RM228 as well!

It is over a month that the ASTRO decoder turn off and I can not restart again. I have contacted to the ASTRO services many times through email, submit a ticket, and phone call, but no action from ASTRO technical services. Please fix the decoder issue ASAP.

ASTRO IPTV SERVICES SUCKS
2 weeks ago Astro customer service called me to promote the Astro IPTV package. So I said yes and I told them to come over on Saturday to proceed with the wiring. The technicians came over today and removed my old beyond decoder and replaced with PVR. Which means I am not able to watch Astro until the activation takes place. He told to give Astro a little time to activate the IPVT and left off. After an hour I called Astro requesting on the status update. The customer service guy told me that they are having system issues and can only be resolved on Monday. I was extremely unhappy and told them to expedite the activation. Waited for another 5 hrs and called Astro again. The customer server guy name Lokman told me the same bull ### and said they are doing everything to expedite. I told I want to speak to the manager but he said they only communicate to the system team via email and there is no phone. How stupid can the answer be. An hour later I called Astro again. And finally the tech support girl called Farah told me the truth that the activation team does not work over the weekend and I can only get my activation on Monday. "What the Hell" I am now doomed for 2 days unable to watch any TV programs. How brainless can Astro be. Shutting down my Astro over the weekend and lied about their services.

If this massage is able to be viewed by Astro and they have any dignity of their branding and their services. I hope you take all our complains with a pinch of salt and improve ur services.

The only reason I have subcribe to Astro is out of no choice.
Astro is full of BS

Astro hired super lousy employees to work for them. Luckily never fix the damn iptv ###. Been applying for 2weeks and lastly the guy told me my place no coverage. What a ###ing joke.waste my ###ing time. Kudos to all the excellent astro agent at astro booth especially the one in bukit kemuning giant mall. Never answer call. So unprofessional. Do they even undergo training or whatever. I mean how much you pay those clown every month? All your every amature irresponsible worker. What a waste of time. Please to every customer who thinking of applying for astro IPTV PLEASE DO NOT DO so. Highly recommend NOT TO install this service. Damn lousy.

I’m Veni from Malacca city & my Astro A/C no [protected]-1. I am writing this today to explain about a bad experience I had On Astro customer service. I had been calling to customer service number since 1 weeks ago (04.02.16 till 11.02.16) to solve problem on signal unavailable even though no rain. I’m really very disappointed when call Astro, not very easy to get to talk to customer service. Need to wait at least 20mins with all the stupid music. Each call says all customer service are busy and will attend your shortly. This is the worst ever customer service I had been going through. I have already open 2 report ticket (1)[protected] & 2)[protected]) to solve my problem and promise me that the technical team would contact me earlies by 2days from now but it’s almost 8 days till now none of the technical team call me to make appointment but just received SMS said “We are unable to reach you to arrange for a technical visit on your Astro issue please call ….to reschedule for an appointment. Once already open report ticket it’s not free, have to pay RM53 included GST .Thank you very much for your good SERVICE & JOB. KEEP IT UP

Astro just sent me a bill for subscription but I have already terminated the service a year ago. Their customer service department, I think, is completely dead. No one answers and I'm stuck with the bill. NEVER answer any call from Astro. They WILL TRICK YOU.

Thank god i'm not alone... i have issues with Astro for the past 5 months now... I signed up for astroiptv somewhere in August 2015 (end of the month) I've been with astro since 2001 i think. I have 2 decoder ( same account ) I only split the account become 2 last year August bcoz i had to move out... So before i changed to IPTV, Every month - never once i missed arguing with Astro about what-so-not outstanding charges, lateness charges... I was pissed and i did not pay for few months. And they said they'll be penalty charges if i don't settle those amount and i said i don't give rats - why should i pay for the thing i did not subscribe and all?! So they kept calling me every month, all i did was F you astro i am not going to pay a single cents so stop calling... sue me if u want bcoz i can do that too to u... Seriously they still keep on calling. So til one day a guy from astro ( a malay guy - a nice guy ) explain and make a deal with me that i only pay 20rm for the activation for 4 months which i did... BUT after i signed for the crazy IPTV, i thought im not going to have this kind of nonsense again but i was wrong... it became worse! Read and understand ...

I know it's my statement but I have paid the activation in Oct so why are you still charging me again for the activation fees? That I don't understand! It doesn't make any sense at all... I think better you check your system again bcoz I will get my bank statement details on what I have paid to ASTRO. I have paid again for the activation fee few days ago which I don't bloody understand why I have to pay twice for it!

If you're saying that the IPTV activation fee you only charge on the 3rd Dec then, why didn't you return back the amount I paid twice for the activation fee in Oct? Which is on the 14th Oct RM239.49 & 30th Oct RM217.75
I was told by the sales man TIME/ASTRO IPTV in Ikano that I have to pay RM531.24 for the activation fee on the following month - which is in Oct! So they said 1st month which is in Sept, i only pay RM74 and that it...

So now you're telling me I have to pay the damn freaking activation again which I did!

If you *ASTRO* wanna steal customer's money this way then, you are messing with the wrong person. I have paid more than I'm not supposed too!

The payment on the Nov 22nd RM3.30 - I actually accidentally paid twice but did you ever return it back to me? NO YOU DID NOT ...

I will look at this matter really seriously...

---- that was my last email to astro... I was having problem with Time as well last week for almost a month, i have no freaking internet - can't even do my work at home. The best part was after swearing on the emails, yelling on the phone... cursing in the emails again and again, after 1 month they sent the technician over, can u believe that?! I am beyond disappointed with the treatment, services ... Astro is actually stealing money from customer bcoz why i said that bcoz it happen to me... Even i paid extra but they never deduct the balance i have with them! I don't understand what kind of outstanding i have coz as far as i know, i never pay my bil late... I know i paid either 217rm - 218rm a month ( that was my actual amount ) but all i see is different amount stated and the bil never came to the house for 3months and i only received it this month... YOU ARE freaking crazy astro... really u ARE to the max...

We were moving to a new condo across the street. Called astro 1week plus before the move. they said move existing account was faster than applying for a new account. now 2 weeks later we deeply regret that. They were so "busy" that they could not pick up the equipment from the old place, and before that was picked up they could not proceed with the setup of the new line (old building was Time new is under Maxis). we were asked to personally send the old equipment to their office at midvalley to speed up the progress - after 1 week! only now, after 2 weeks, and two seperate complaints - do they inform us that they are now applying with maxis. it sounds like its the first time they have had to do this. It is unbelieveable poor service. their front end does seem to to their job, but the backend are doing zilch. we are so frustrated and upset with Astro that we are going to apply Maxis and get Netflix instead. so tired of their piss poor service and perfomance.

My name is ronald lau director of restoran de costa acc no.[protected].on 17th Nov 2015 I have informed astro I can't continue my contract due to reasons on my business cash flow and my health problem as my knee is worsening which makes me very uncomfortable to cook in my restaurant because I m the chef in my restaurant.my general hospital doctor (orthopaedic specialist)has advise me to stop by career as I m not able to go on like this as my knee benicus is worsening due to standing a lot and walking a lot.the doctor has given me 80days medical leave and also after surgery another 40 days medical leave which mean overall 120days medical leave.i m not able to work and I m without any income to support my expenses and raise my family.so I decided to call the astro customer service team to inform them I m closing down my business and I requested them to waive off my penalty charges which they claim to be Rm500 at first and they also advise me to provide them proof and information by emailing them at ce_helpdesk@@astro.com.my to considering my request and I was advised they will respond me by email or call back to my hp [protected] between 7 working days but after 2 weeks I m force to call back because I was still not been notify by anyone of them about my situation.so I called back on the 12th or maybe 13th Oct 2015 to clarify my situation on my issue.i was shocked that the officer said I have to pay rm600.35 and a penalty amounting rm57++.00 because I cancelled between the contract period.i was so angry and argue with the officer saying I have email u my condition and I willing to pay the outstanding payment of rm600.35.she say she can't do anything.so I called the second time again and a officer answered name Mr amran.i told him my condition and saying I m willing to negotiate on settling this issue on other better solutions because I m not working and no income to pay the penalty and he advise me to terminate my SSM and send all my proof on my medical checkup with the hospital so I agreed I got it really all the information he needed and email him quickly the next day 13 Oct 2015.he promise to help me on my behalf and let me know by 7 working days or so.i waited till 3rd November 2015 but no one called me up so I called again.the officer to answer saying he was busy at the moment so she will help me up.she advise me to settle the outstanding payment of rm600.35 first the they will notify me on email or call me of the issue I m facing.i have told her the whole scenario about my case and she said she will let the other departments to notify me in few days time.untill today 23th November 2015 still no one from astro has contact neither email me.i have call them yesterday about 10times [protected] around 4pm until late 10pm but each time when computer voice directory transfer the line to them it will ring 2 time then will silent until later I hang after 3 to 5 minutes.i really to know what to do but all I know I m not hiding from astro but instead hoping to negotiate with them.is this the way how astro deal with customers?I m not going to settle the penalty rm57++.00 because I m not eligible to work and I have given all evidence to astro by email.if your continuing to keep quiet like this pls don't blame me by saying I m avoiding your.i will fight all my way to court if it's needed to protect my reputation.i rest my case over here cause your have make me no choice to settle with astro.

Just watching True Detective which has been recorded each week. Final episode and the recording as usual just stops before the credits role. It stops and makes no sense. We then download via VOD and realize the Astro system chopped off the last 15 mins!
How difficult is it to do this properly? I have used Sky before in the UK which works great but Astro is absolute rubbish.

Dear ASTRO:
I just want to complaint about the Astro Operator attitude when they make a call to ask about the payment. Normally, the maximum of my bill outstanding is only 2 months, never more than this period. I feel very disappointed with her attitude & the way of her conversation, suddenly she end the phone call without to listen my justification. For your information, i get called from this number: [protected] at 4.34pm (18 June 2015). I hope ASTRO can take any action with this lady! TQ

Hi my Name is Ilengohvan @ Allan. My HP Num is [protected]. I personally dont mind to givr my number where atleast someone from Astro HQ can call me. I had been calling to your customer service number for almost 30 estimated of accumulated call made and waited on call with all the stupid musics. Each call says all customer service are busy and will attend your shortly. The service number says operation till 12am but looks they sleep in working place earlier. Sorry to say this as I am also working in customer oriented line. This is the worst ever service I had and has been going through almost 5 years and still they didnt change. I am not condeming anyone but who did from Astro look into all this complaints and act on it. I DONT THINK SO. Your charges is very expensive, added service charge which lools like rubbish on what service we are getting. Said that even rain Astro will be working or connected but sorry lah different place rain everywhere no Astro. Reason on screen due to rain. If we didnt pay bill its disconnected and yes as other complaint says reconnection cause RM20. So our waiting charges and bill service tax who wants to pay. Will astro pay OR the waiting gives you another earnings isit. Come in lah. Use brain. How long a customer service provider will be busy. I am sure you have alot of employee on that section. Try to put your self on our shoe. I think better to terminate and get the oversea channel. Anyone from Astro can call me as I am glad to talk and answer... but I am sorry lah sure no one going to call coz that a normal way of your service. Good Job Well Done

I just subscribe to astro iptv together with maxis internet last month. For the past 2 days, i could not get their iptv and also the internet. I called their customer service and only after a dozen times I finally got through. He said my problem is because the internet line ; hence he could not do anything. He promised to write a report to the technical team, and they would come earliest 2 days from now. This experience really is bad as I need the internet to do my work; and the iptv as well
