@tnsai,
Yup.. it makes me wonder, Y i was so ansty about it earlier - and a good thing too cause at least now I save some $ instead of paying RM99 to Maxis every month

if i subscribed to per month package, rm 58 from hotlink, do u think if i do :

email
normal surfing - 6 hours/day (estimate only.)
download from cydia,app store

should be enough for 500mb?

noob here, cant download from itune first then only synch to iphone ?

@Ken,
Yes of course u can do that. Please read through the pinned threads if you're a new user of the iPhone.

@saksoba,
I have my emails being checked 24/7, leave some IM applications switched on and do the routine internet browsing and 500MB is more than suffice. As to downloading apps from apple store, if the app is bigger than 10MB it won't be downloadable via the iPhone and most of the time, in order not to go beyond my limit, I leave those downloads for when i'm on wifi and not 3G.

guys,

just a few question here. sorry if the question irritated you.

im planning to subscribe the 500MB / month for the data.
does it really enough 500MB for emails and FB?
estimate how much it take per day?
after calculate, roughly we can use 16MB per day, izit enuff?

i just scared it will caused overbilling issues since so many user had complain and faced the problems.

help me clarify please..
much appreciated. thank you

guys,

if i want to browse internet but without usiing 3g/edge, will iphone always ask before we surt net?like showing wifi available near your area or they will direct connect to 3g/edge?

As per tinkerbell said, it should be enough. Except, if u do tethering, i dont think 500mb is enough for u.

IMHO, if u surf the net and there is available wifi near u, iphone will ask 1st. a popup will appear show available wifi n ask u to connect either one.

Tinkerbell,
were you tied to maxis contract when you purchased the phone?

how come u get rm58??
i check rm68 woooo...
how how..tell meee

Maybe for processing? LOL. Dun remember.

woohoo, got a bill for RM 1075.51 for data usage... 113,086 KB !!! How should i complain bro...

cool. They will block your line 1st, unless you pay up. It will remain blocked, until they finished checking every damn thing which they actually have no way of checking.

what's the usage shown on your phone btw ?

Would be good to tell us your data plan etc etc, so we can see if you can complain etc..

i m wondering which plan should i choose(i m a digi customer)
i dont really know about the postpaid plan..the ivalue plan
it says free 333mins of talk time only maxis to maxis? which means if i make a call to digi i have to pay extra after the 100 i paid no matter if i used up 333 mins or not?
2.btw i m not a person who always call or sms..i just want the iphone for surfing the internet..
i hope u can help me and give me some opinion
thx

The maximum charge for local data usage is up to RM250 only unless u gt use oversea data roaming

write an email or call them ba

The 333 minutes is not a free talk time between Maxis to Maxis. It is an estimated amount of time that is applicable under Ivalue Plan 1 based on the 15 cents/min rate and at the quota of RM50-50 for calls and data. The talk-time is not limited to calls made to Maxis only, you can make calls to Digi and Celcom and still being charged at 15 cents/minute.

However, do take note that SMS to other network providers will be charged on top of your RM100 commitment fee.

rm50-50 for calls and data?????/ meaning that if i only used rm30 on data but rm 60 on calls , eventually i have to pay rm110?

EDIT
found it
