For a truly enjoyable experience of browsing the internet, a good and stable internet connection is a must. For most, this is not an issue, nor a problem, because they use state-of-the-art conveniences and facilities that their Internet Services Provider (ISP) can provide. Such conveniences are actually a luxury that not everyone can enjoy, and I am unfortunately one of them. Unlimited internet access comes at a cost. In my country, it can be a monthly expenditure of RM200 or more, depending on how sophisticated the subscription plan is. This is one luxury I simply cannot afford, so I have no other choice but to go for a much cheaper solution of a fixed monthly Data Volume Plan, at about half the cost. It’s definitely better than nothing, but when the data volume has all been used up, then the heartaches begin! I finally managed to get my 4G internet connection going, after 2 years of struggling and enduring the pains of a snail-pace 2G connection, but I now realised that not everything can be roses. My 50 GB data volume subscription per month could last for a whole 30 days of daily usage on 3G, but on 4G, I soon ran out of data volume in less than 3 weeks of usage! That is one blardy data guzzling 4G connection indeed, and I simply don’t like it, nor appreciate it at all! Why must 3G services be discontinued, forcing everyone to use 4G instead? Poor users like me are forced to dish out more money than they would like to, or even afford to, just so they can continue enjoying the internet. It's all for a better experience, they say, but to me, it’s all BULL! I am now struggling yet again with a crawling 2G connection. My 4G connection would only resume on the 13th of each month, so I just have to endure this nonsense for a few more days. It pains me even more knowing well that this may be a regular monthly recurrence for me, but I simply cannot afford to subscribe for more data volume! If only Askgamblers platform can be more friendlier to a 2G connection, then that would certainly reduce most of my heartaches. As it is now, most of the forum functions do not always work for me. Most of the time, I cannot make any replies, I cannot upload any screenshots, I cannot see images in the topics, and even the text may take ages to completely load up! All these are painful man! If only there’s a better way to get around these issues!
