how much is your data usage for a month ..?

for me , light surfing is around 500MB , is 500MB is sufficient for you..??
if yes, Maxis IVP 50 is suitable + you won't exceeded the quota [1.5GB]

for example:
my usage
whatsapp = roughly 50MB per month [really big data usage for me]
light surfing = fb.com , google , etc.. 450MB
a-gps = 2MB
total is 502MB, sufficient for me... plus,.. I can use more..
Umobile isn't recommended , not stable data connection , better go for Maxis [a bit expensive but worth for you]

Many of my friends that use maxis alredy changed to other telcos. Maxis too many hidden charges.
Im planning to use umobile as people told me, its the fastest and cheapest telco in klang valley.
Even when the coverage is out and has to opt for celcom 2g, at least the connection still there.

can you tell me, what are their hidden charges..?

almost 11 yrs using Maxis, no hidden charges at all [postpaid and prepaid]

celcom 2G -> EDGE is stable.. but the Umobile 3G itself isn't stable ..

it is fast,, but not stable..

i never use maxis, so im not sure about that.
but what i remember is they commented that maxis charged them kawkaw after exceeded the data limit.

i thought if you stay in klang valley, umobile caters u well?
this is just my opinion, im using celcom now but plan to change to umobile.
for internet only use streamyx mostly or digi.
umobile gona be my backup internet connection and my main telco line.

Waaaa like that u call hidden charges? Maxis already stated clearly will charge after exceed the bandwidth. They exceed their limit maxis charge kaw kaw is normal.

A lot of ppl I know kiasu take the cheapest plan then exceed blame the telco. If they make mistake bare the responsible do you know why maxis do not hav capped limit and pay alittle higher than other telco?

You are paying for premium speed at HSDPA area the speed can reach up to 7.2mbps and above. Other telco you pay cheap and the speed is very slow.

Because they can't beat the best they need lower their plan or give better offer that simple

i never use maxis, like ive said before, that's what claimed by my friends.
i never signed any agreement with maxis and never read the terms and such.

ouh another thing about maxis is they sometimes up your usage limit without telling you beforehand - such as you capped your rm till rm200, if you go beyond that maxis should have barred your line. but few times they received bills more than the limit.

only stated my opinion, if you insist using other telcos, suite yourself.
i dont work for any telcos.
