Maxis Fibre Moving House Guide

Moving House with Maxis Fibre? Check the New Address First

Before you move, check whether your new address has Maxis Fibre coverage, available port, building access and complete unit details. Relocation can be smooth, but it depends on the exact new address. If fibre is not ready, Maxis 5G Home WiFi can be checked as a temporary or backup option from RM69/month.

Quick answer

Can Maxis Fibre be moved to a new house?

Yes, but only if the new address is within coverage and can be activated. If the new address has no fibre coverage, port is full, or building access is not ready, relocation may be delayed. In that case, Maxis 5G Home WiFi can be checked as a temporary or backup option, starting from RM69/month where suitable signal and plan eligibility are confirmed.

πŸ“

Check coverage first

Do not assume the new place can use the same fibre setup. Fibre is checked by exact address, block, tower and unit.

πŸ’°

Relocation fee may apply

Maxis’ relocation FAQ and T&C mention a service relocation fee. Always confirm the latest fee before submitting the request.

πŸ“¦

Bring your equipment

On installation day, Maxis says to bring existing equipment such as modem and router to the new installation address.

Relocation rules

Important Maxis Fibre relocation points

These are the points customers should understand before moving. They are more important than only checking current promo.

Item What to know Why it matters
New address coverage Check whether the new address is within Maxis Fibre coverage before requesting relocation. If not serviceable, normal relocation cannot proceed.
Relocation request If address is within coverage, Maxis says relocation can be requested by walking in to a Maxis Store. Relocation is a service process, not just changing address in a form.
Relocation fee Maxis relocation FAQ states a service relocation fee of RM300 is applicable. The broadband page also mentions RM200 may apply for a new modem in some situations. Customer should confirm the latest payable amount before proceeding.
Equipment Bring Maxis equipment such as modem and router to the new installation address on installation day. Missing equipment can affect setup or availability.
Contract Fibre commitment period and active device contracts continue after relocation. If the new address is not serviceable, early termination fee may apply if still within contract. Do not cancel or move blindly without checking contract status.
Notice period Maxis Fibre T&C states relocation requires one month prior notice. Plan early to reduce internet gap during move-in.
Practical advice: check coverage early, confirm fee/contract status with Maxis, and prepare your equipment before the installation date.
Before you move

What to check before relocating fibre

Check the exact new address For landed homes, use full street/taman/postcode. For condos, include building name, block/tower, floor and unit.
Check port availability An area can be fibre-ready but still delayed if the port is full or activation path is not ready.
Confirm building access For high-rise buildings, management approval, riser access and technician time slots can affect installation.
Prepare equipment Keep your modem, router, power adapters and related Maxis equipment ready for the new installation address.
Plan backup internet if needed If move-in date is close, prepare temporary internet such as mobile hotspot or Home WiFi option if the new fibre setup needs more time.
Common problems

Why moving-house fibre can get delayed

❌

New address not serviceable

The new location may not have Maxis Fibre coverage yet, even if nearby areas already have fibre.

🚫

Port full

Fibre is available in the area, but activation can be delayed if the required port capacity is full.

🏒

Condo access issue

High-rise properties may need management approval, riser access or complete unit details before installation.

πŸ“¦

Equipment not ready

Missing modem, router or power adapter may slow down the new setup or require further checking.

⏳

Notice too late

Last-minute request can create internet gap, especially if installation slots or building access are limited.

πŸ“„

Contract not checked

Early termination fee or device balance may apply if the service cannot continue and the account is still under contract.

Backup internet

If fibre relocation is delayed, check Home WiFi first

If the new house has no fibre port, port is full, management access is delayed, or you need internet immediately after moving in, Maxis 5G Home WiFi can be checked as a temporary or alternative broadband option. Fibre is still the first choice for long-term stability, but Home WiFi is useful when relocation cannot be activated on time.

πŸ”

Relocation first

Move your existing Maxis Fibre service to the new address if coverage, port and building access are ready.
