to make it simple...
10kb = RM0.05 1mb = 1024kb/10kb x rm0.05 =rm5.12 just for 1mb data if you over 300mb data = 300 x RM5.12 = RM1536.... if they not limit u @ RM250 ..u die more fast... u wan anywhere also run msn ..even on road .... 24hour update ur fb ...this is what u have to pay ..unless u switch to unlimited lol.. |

just to remind those newly register...
for newly register, do beware of data usage. the maxis cycle bill is fix ..begin 28th and end on 27th every month. thus, if u register on 15th, ur data usage is actually pro rate... u only have 1000/ 30 * 12 = 399.99mb to use.. so that is why many ppl get shock on first bill as they think their first day register is their cycle billing date which is wrong for maxis, all bill cycle begin with 28 and end on 27th for all as inform by their customer service or any1 can help me check or clarified? |

QUOTE(zulwan @ Oct 26 2010, 03:43 PM) The bill cycle mostly start 5-6 days after the date of purchased..so to be safe,for the first 5 days turn of the 3g data setting...  QUOTE(Loonie2 @ Oct 26 2010, 03:52 PM) They have a few fix bill cycle dates, last time my one was on the 10th now i change to 7th... So the thing you must do, call up and ask when is your bill comes for the first month... Just to prevent any shocked bills !! hmm mine seem different is not 5 days....Don't know Maxis will waived or not, if you said "Maxis CS never informed me on this pro-rata basis thingy so i'm not going to pay the extra" i register on 10/15 but my bill end on 10/27 the pro rate is told by the CS just now i call.... so my limit for this oct is cap @ 400mb and i already use 300mb...lucki i call or else....  |
