Hi there!

This is my insight of the matter for postpaid.

1. DiGi is good and really affordable. One of the best thought. Cheap and affordable especially with unlimited data plan. Good coverage but some places, not that good. 8.5/10

2. Celcom is marvellous but it Is costly. If you want cheaper, apply for P148. It is registering as corporate user. You have to give a letter of appointment from the company. What so great about this? Pay 148 monthly and included uimited data. Very reliable and I notice the signal is stronger than DiGi. Due to price, I give it 8.5/10

3. Maxis is fine especially if you have average budget. Coverage is good too but I think not as good as Celcom but better slightly then DiGi. Negative thing about Maxis is, you get 'funny' charges on your bill and Maxis don't bother much about it. My gf's sis experienced that. 6/10

Just my 2 cents smile.gif

Hi guys I am going back to Malaysia for 3 months and will be staying in central region (Damansara).

I would like to know what is the best data + voice plan (Blackberry service not required) for my iPhone ? I am not a heavy internet user and I seldom call (A monthly cap of 5GB is just nice for me).

I have been looking around and Digi Smartplan sounds nice. It is just what I wanted where I get unlimited internet access with decent voice rates. However, I am not so keen in subscriping to Digi due to unsatisfied experience in the past.

Any similar plans from Maxis or Celcom? Either prepaid or postpaid is fine. Is the celcom D99 unlimited package still on?

PS: I am currently on Hotlink and I can purchase their weekly prepaid broadband for RM25. Kinda pricey.

Thanks! smile.gif

If you are light usage, you can actually try digi or maxis light data plan. I still prefer DiGi over Maxis due to too many of my friends are paying more than what they are suppose to on Maxis.

Hi all I am also still confuse with the plan. Here I want to ask.  I am still new, bcos got 1 fren wan sell me a smartphone. Now just using old nokia 3100 with prepaid. Don't know about the plan. Hope u guys can guide me.

1) If I already got a smartphone and wanted to surf the net. Can I just apply for the data plan?

2)If I just want to buy the phone and don't want any plan. Can I buy it from a telco itself or must I go to shop?

3) How to apply for a prepaid number?

Yes you can. I mean getiing a plan with data.

You can buy anywhere. If budget is an issue then get telco package. You can from both place not a problem.

Buy the number from shop or telco smile.gif

Thanks for the info. Do telco phone package got any terms & condition? Is it much cheaper compare to buy from shop. Can u give me the link to the phone package only?

And 1 more what about postpaid number. Can buy from shop or telco also?

Telco package is usually 1-2 years. Read up telco website and you get what I mean.

Cheaper to buy from shop? Depends. If you ask me, just buy from the telco best for your location and your favorite.

By the way, just go to go telco website can find d la....

Of course postpaid can be bought anywhere....
