maxis still sending me sms twice for reaching 800mb and 1Gb.

I ll subscribe to RM8/day package if i need data after the 2nd SMS.

No BillShock after that.

Same here

I keep receiving credit limit up to 1500

i dont know what does that means

So that easy for them to give you a billshock

With so many complaints about Maxis still have people use. Clap clap if trouble come don't blame Maxis. Blame yourself for not reading carefully how cunningly they can overcharge.

Does anyone know what Balance f/d (overdue) means?

Although there is a lot of trouble from maxis, their coverage is much bettet than other telco.

Guys we hav the 2nd version of this thread if yall havent noticed..

In ur opinion. what choice do we have? There are only 2 Telcos that offer Iphone on package and Maxis has the widest coverage. Do you suggest Digi, cheaper but has little coverage?

@ally9970: Or you can buy outright and use our "Blue Verizon" (which is still not getting an official piece of the pie at all, and we're half a year away from iP5 edi lol).

While being craptastically slow at times (and with CS so sucky you just give up trying), I've yet to get any bill shock with the big C, yet. Coverage is not bad too.

well, depending where you are, town area I guess the yellow man wouldn't have any prob, unfortunately both place where I work and stay don't have that coverage

wah,after read all comments frm maxis victim
im afraid my dad also will get bill shock
his now waiting for ip4 restock at maxis center nearby..
if use iphone just for email,send/receive,may cause this problem ?

actually if u know how to track ur Data usage , it wont give u a shock bill , 4 of my family include me under ivalue1 never get shockbill within this 4 month

for the 1st month , control urself not using more than 30mb per day , because the 1GB data plan is not given with full month cycle , maybe u register ur iphone on 24/1/2011 , it will be 28/1/2011 for billing date , so for the 1st month it should be

[1GB/31day] x 5 day(from 24~28) = 161MB , once u over 161mb , then u will be charge , hence u get shock bill....

so u better call up 123 to double confirm WHEN is ur Billing date , u can change the story =)



if let say u know ur billing date is every month of 28th , so just reset ur data on 29th , and use it safely until the next month of 28th

normally will get shockbill on the 1st month because alot of user dunno the BILLING date , so they over use the data and get charge higer

It simply means a BILLSHOCK!

From my point of view and understanding,balance f/d(forward due) means any payment received,/ unpaid previous bill amount, in the last month(in your case,between 21/01/2011-20/02/2011)

well i actually don't quite understand the problem here...
for example, for my own usage, i hardly travel and i know the places i go will have coverage, so i choose digi...
but there are some of my friends/relatives...who simply heard ppl's comment that digi has bad coverage and then they are reluctant to subscribe to digi...

my point is...i always ask them...do you expect to go XX place with no digi coverage? if you're going to be around most of the time in this area, why worry or bother?
hmmm...

i use digi very long dee...hardly got no line issue..sometimes got drop to 1 bar...but still can call....
