then which telcos is the cheapest?

yes, supp also need data. budget for both maybe around <150 if possible (commitment + maybe extra usage)

the cheaper, the better. haha. average usage monthly maybe 300sms + 60min not included sms/call between supp line (doesnt count since its free, right?)

Hi, i m looking for new plan. Last time i switch my mobile plan was like a few years ago.

I am I m currently subscribed to maxis value plus 50. My last bill is RM 20++. Mainly used for call while sms is less than RM2. Any plan that suits me. Too many plans in the market, got confused.

Hi everyone,

Would like to ask one basic question. I am currently a Celcom Exec20 postpaid user. I would like to change my package to Celcom Xpax prepaid.

Is it possible?

Thanks!

any suggested cheap data plan (around 1-3 gb)? both postpaid or prepaid, coz i only need it when im not at home and using wifi at home.

and is there any prepaid plan, in which the data quota will be forwarded (as in, carry-forward the remaining balance) after expiry if it is not finished during the active period.

suggestions and advice are most welcomed

Hi, I am currently using Maxis Postpaid without any plan ( only have value added service 500 sms free)

Just got my galaxy nexus a few days ago, so which plan would suit me? I only use 3g when i am not home, from 8am-4pm liddat. thinking of rm50 internet plan with 1.5gb quota.

1 more thing, if i subscribe value added service rm8, when i add the contacts will it appear on my bill? thank you

which telco is better connection in KL area....i found that DiGi quite weak

I am a very light phone user. I found Digi Smartplan is the cheapest way to go.
My last 3 months bill never exceed RM90. RM 70 is the fixed data plan, therefore my phone/sms usage is less than RM 20. I mainly use the home phone for call.

If Maxis you need to commit at least RM30 on top of your usage plan.
That's why for me Digi is the cheapest for data plan and phone usage.

I'm already on DiGi but prepaid.

Does anyone have any experience converting to postpaid, especially the Smart Plan RM48?

What happens if you don't continue after your contract and can you change to prepaid again at the end of your contract?

Currently I'm on Celcom Exec i68 that bundles the plan with iPhone 4S. My monthly bill has always been around RM48 ringgit. When my contract finish, what happens to my monthly bill and plan?

Sorry I'm noob when it comes to this sort of postpaid plan as I was always using prepaid.

cheapest postpaid data plan is umobile u28.
rm28/month with 1gb data and free 200 sms to other network (plus 100 sms within the network).
this plan is only suite if u dont make lot of call out.
but then, umobile supp line dont come with data plan. good for single user only

for supp line with data:

celcom principal (new plan) is rm40. while supp is rm15. data is as low as rm28 for 300mb.
no extra charge after finish quota.
total min/month = 40+28+15+28 = rm111.

maxis can share talktime with supp line (only for principal basic plan 30/50/80/150/250/500).
principal value first is rm30 and supp also rm30 (share that rm60).
data is as low as rm18 for 100mb AND extra charge after finish quota.
total min/month = 30+18+30+18 = rm96.

or, maxis value plus internet plan 80 + value plus internet supp 30, total min/month = rm110.
principal got 500mb while supp is 250mb AND extra charge after finish quota.

digi principal is smart plan 48 (1gb) + supp line smart family 28 (300mb) so total min/month = rm76.
but this fee only for data. other usage (call/sms/mms) is PAYU.

assuming ur example usage of 300sms + 60 mins for principal,
celcom need to pay extra rm14.
maxis is still within the rm60 monthly commitment.
digi need to pay extra rm39.

in the end (assuming supp didnt use more than allocated call/sms freebis and maxis not exceeding quota):
celcom rm125.
maxis value first rm96.
maxis value plus internet rm110.
digi rm115.

so u see there, digi is not the cheapest

rm20++ but u still need to pay rm50 right?

try change to maxis talkmore28 - http://www.maxis.com.my/talk28/main.asp
do note u should choose talkmore, not textmore.
rm28/month with free 200mins & 100sms to all network.
so now u can reduced monthly commitment fee to 28 instead of 50

yes it is possible. just go to celcom center ~

1. for postpaid, refer my previous reply to zr125 above.

for prepaid, its umobile. rm28/month with free 500mb + 100sms & 30mins to all network.

2. digi prepaid smart plan - http://www.digi.com.my/prepaid/plan_prepaid_smartplan.do

Guys. If no need for sms, just apply for home wireless rm99. You got 20gb data and free calls. Cheers!

I'm on postpaid package. Thinking to get a new phone with data plan. The phone price better under 1200.

I heard my bro said that the iphone package is actually very good bcoz it contains free calls and sms which make it more worth, is that true?

what is the best package for digi now? (also in terms of phone)

fren, u now in "Mobile Phones and PDAs" under "Clueless on which telco? Prepaid or postpaid?" topic.

means here people discussing about mobile phone plan, which is of coz, to use in phone or smartphone

yes for all-in-1 plan, iphone plan is the best, BUT u must buy iphone from telco AND have contract.

for digi, u need to pay about normal rrp of the iphone, and the subsidies will be credited in ur phone bill later. contract is 24 months.

more info at http://www.digi.com.my/postpaid/plan_iDiGi.do
idigi138 is rm138/month but ur bill will just be rm93/month (rebate rm45/month for 24months)
let say u buy ip4s 32gb from digi, price is rm2390.
after 24 months, the ip4s price will be rm1310 only [rm2390 - (rm45x24)].

while for maxis/celcom, u pay discounted price of the iphone and no subsidy on bill.
just now digi also now offering this for 138 plan, more info at http://www.digi.com.my/whatshot_v3/iphoneSALE/landing.do
ip4s is rm799 only but ur monthly is rm138 (not rm93).

so u choose, cheap iphone or cheap monthly commitment ~ up2u

what is the best prepaid for call & internet? i plan want to use prepaid together with my GF...

1. umobile rm28/month. u get 500mb + 30sms + 100mins. but do check coverage in ur place 1st.

2. better go get postpaid with family plan ~

between Celcom First Data Madvance Plus and Maxis Internet Value Plan 75..which one is more worth it? Umobile is a no no cause im staying in kuala terengganu and i heard Digi sucks..or is there any other alternative? Rarely use call or sms, mainly on surfing internet..thanks

celcom first data madvance plus.

its already come with FREE 60 minutes & 60 sms to all networks ~

and once u reach quota there will be no extra charge ~

Ok..thanks..appreciate that..
