TMNet's Internet service sucks big

As far as I'm concerned, TMNet users are getting a very raw deal. Doesn't matter whether it's their "broadband" or dial-up service, it's lousy. For about a week already, I've been experiencing bad connections to some websites. Especially, getting through to my emails on Yahoo! was terrible. Even my wife complains about the (lack of) speed of the connection. Although she's not even a regular surfer, she notices the drag.

And then yesterday, after days of complete silence, TMNet finally issues a statement saying there has been a disruption to their Internet services since 18 Feb due to "circuit faults on the Asia Pacific Cable Network 2 (APCN2) between Malaysia and the United States." Why can't they announce it faster? That's very efficient of TMNet, isn't it?
