How do I read the Astro Bill?

It is important that you understand the monthly “Statement of Account”. Please refer to our Statement of Account sample which explains the sections of your bill in detail.

Is there a fee for Package selection changes?

A Switching Fee of RM10 applies for all Package downgrades.

I had heard about Administrative Fee. What "Administrative Fee" is all about?

Administrative Fee is the fee that will be charged to customers 30 days after initial disconnection of service.

How are the Pro-ration charges calculated?

Pro-ration charges occur when your account is either disconnected, reconnected or if you have changed the subscription packages, in the middle of your billing cycle. Please refer to our Pro-ration of bills calculation method for more information.

Why does Astro charge a Late Charge fee while other service providers don’t?

We have to pay our programme providers even if subscribers pay after the billing period. We give ample time for subscribers to pay the monthly subscription. A late charge fee of RM10 is imposed when payment is received after the due date on your statement . This is our administrative fee for collection on overdue balance.

Why does ASTRO charge RM20 to get reconnected while other service providers don’t?

The reconnection fee covers the administrative cost for reactivating your service that is disconnected due to non-payment. We encourage you to pay on time and to avoid disconnection. Please refer to our convenient payment channels for an array of payment option choices.

Why does the reconnection of Astro services take 24 hours?

This is the maximum time required to establish the signal to your decoder. However, the usual turnaround time is within 2 working hours.
