We had an appointment with the TV guys to install our aerial & astro.  We didnt engage them thru direct counters that could be found at giant or tesco supermarkets but instead from a flyer contact found inserted at our mailbox about 3 days ago.  Found from 4X that getting this apek guy is more expensive rm$50 for astro installation while direct astro counter rm$30 but we decided to go ahead with calling the shop as we also found out from abgK whom registered direct from astro counter that it had been more than 1 week nobody contacted him for installation. Paid extra rm$20 to get prompt delivery would be more value that doing the waiting game.

They came ard 6.00 pm and directly fixed the Astro satellite up at the roof.  The apek fill up the registration form for us which they require a photocopy of IC and being a foreigner they need a copy of utility bill also to verify us as the home owner.  The package that we took was apart from the many channels of free available 2 mini ie fun (cartoon) and learning (discovery channel) + sport costing mthly subscription of RM$60.  He informed that he need to send the form to KL for registration and ask to wait for 2-3 days for KL to call us to activate.  And (un)expectedly on last Tuesday a lady from astro KL office called me up to verify all the particulars and informed that it will be activated in 2 days time. Now being saturday we've Astro channels alredi. best.
