Hi,

Between U Mobile and Celcom,  any pros and cons?
Which will you choose?

beware if you are getting celcom postpaid. the monthly fee may be low, but when you sign up, you pay two times the monthly fee for the first month. they call it advance payment, and you will never get back the advance money later.

if you terminate your celcom, you shall get the advanced payment back. umobile is charging this advanced payment too. so this point is not valid for comparison.

you got your refund automatically or had to go thru mcmc? their faq states the advance payment will be used to offset the first month's bill but that didn't happen for many.

had digi before, and the advance payment was returned as rebates over the first few months. very different from celcom.

prepaid if you are not into voice call and sms.

hotlink fast 4g, 4Gb for rm48, can add 1Gb for rm8.
tunetalk, topup rm50 get rm20 extra, enough to buy 5Gb for rm68.
digi, 3.5Gb for rm30, get 2 cards if you need more than 3Gb, but redemptions are troublesome.

Hi,

I have a friend coming over to KL for a week. Can someone recommend a travellers sim that is good? I mainly need good 4g connectivity around KL with one week of data validity period. Can anyone help? I looked at digi best prepaid and celcom travellers sim (unsure how the one week 18 bucks internet work. Unlimited?)

digi.

if he doesnt need more than 300mb per day, then make use of the pokemon promo rm1 plan. so one week costs rm7.

Hi all.

My mom is currently on Maxis Hotlink prepaid. The problem is she has to renew subscription of her 5GB RM48 internet plan every month, which she doesn't know how to do it. We the children will do it for her. And we don't come back to town very often. So she has no internet until we get back.
isn't it autorenewal for hotlink's monthly plan?
