Note that if you're a Celcom Digi user, Euro is RM30 on SPOTV now (2 devices, 1 Android TV, 1 Mobile)

If you are NOT a CelcomDigi user, it's RM43 instead.

Note that this is much cheaper than Singapore, which SPOTV are charging SGD88 for early birds, and SGD108 afterwards

Also awaiting news about whether Astro broadcasts SPOTV’s live EURO 2024 tournament with no extra charge or not.

The Indian version of the History Channel, History TV18 India will be available on Astro; May 15, 2024, on Ch 220. Dubbed in Tamil.

QUOTE(joshhd @ May 2 2024, 12:26 AM)
Yeah just saw that too.
Based on what I search online, History TV18 channel is basically the India feed of History Channel meant for viewers in India.

History Channel that we see on CH555 is the Southeast Asia feed, where advertisements and audio language is in English, with Malay/Chinese subtitles available.

For History TV18, however, the programming would be similar but it will be in Tamil audio dub, and may or may not include English subtitles.
Because that channel is India feed, so don't expect Malay & Chinese subtitles option.

I find it very odd that Astro would even consider bringing in that channel here... :hmm: But let's see how it'll look like from 15th May then...

Sooka (and in extension here Astro) has confirmed they will be carrying Euro, but Sooka hinted you might need to pay extra.

I presume it will be the same price as what you would pay SPOTV directly

Could be less too. I recall sooka also carried beIN Sports Rugby (Rugby World Cup) for half the price than beIN Sports Connect.

Anyways, I truly hope Premium subscribers can stream EURO 2024 without extra cost.

As long you missed your due date once, then it will start to affect your credit score already, just like how you would forgot to clear your credit card statement's outstanding amount by the due date. If you missed the due date more than 2 months, that one even no need to say.
Actually, this is not just Astro. Even your mobile telco's postpaid plans is the same too. This isn't something new also, and it has been like that for a very long time already.

https://ctoscredit.com.my/personal/5-mistak...dit-score-fast/

Anything that shows that you have a bad payment record on any service, shall affect your credit score.
So be a good payer, just pay it before the due date whenever it comes to any bills, then you shouldn't worry too much about affecting your credit score.
If you scared forget to pay, then sign up for auto debit as the payment method for your bill.
If you have serious cash flow problem, then you need to relook into your expenses already.
*
I see, I thought it is previously on credit cards, mortgage and car loans, it is now also on telco bills? Hmm... wonder how about utilities bills such as water, electricity or indahwater?
Anyway, I think we are not able to view this score unless we pay for the record and currently not too sure what bills is being tracked.
Thanks for the headsup.

Can this be done with online package change via their system?

or need to be special order contact Astro Support to arrange for me?

this 30% discount is only applies to completely new customer right? Out of contract legacy pack customer not eligible?

good news I think...

now, no more continuous/auto renewal contract after the 1st 24 months contract ended

Astro reverted back to normal 24 Month contract, continuing 25 months onwards without being tied to the contract (can terminate any time after that)

No, as long you intend to switch from your legacy pack to Primary Pack, it cannot be done via self-serve platforms like My Astro or CH200.
If you're wondering why... Well, it's pretty obvious, isn't it? You intend to pay lesser to Astro, which they will lose revenue from you, so of course they won't make it easy for customer to do it.

Try send email to wecare@astro.com.my and ask them to switch your existing legacy pack to Primary Pack with News & Documentary for you.
Since you're switching from legacy to new pack, maybe they may allow it? Do let us know on the outcome...

Otherwise, just call customer service (03-95433838) and ask the agent to do it for you.

And yes, the offer you see on Astro website (30% off) is only for new customers only. Existing customers are not eligible at all.

It won't be so soon because the current auto-renewed contract must expire first before can terminate.
