still havent got my free 500mb data. Went back to cheras maxis centre ytday to lodge a complaint, they said will take few days to process my complaint.

Called Maxis CS last Saturday + this Monday, still haven't get any updates. Sigh....

this morning went to maxis sunway. ask where is my 500MB data.....the fella took my IC, type type on his laptop, go to back room. I sit there for half an hour then he give me a piece of paper with a report number. Immediately I told him this is not acceptable and I want to see your manager. I didnt come here to make a report. I already reported this several times and I want something to be done.

asst. manager took me to a meeting room (maybe scare I scream at her). explain that something went wrong and many ppl who bought on July 24th got this problem. I said what July 24th? 3Gs not even out yet on July 24th! I told her I got mine on Aug 1st. She says oh you not bought the 8GB 3G iPhone? I said no, mine is 16GB 3Gs duh! I told her I got 3 complains -

1. where is my free data?
2. who is gonna pay for the data that was used since Aug 1st?
3. why is my iPhone connecting and incurring data charges when I didnt use it to surf and do online things?

Ask until no more saliva, in the end,
No.1 - ask me to wait, she will ask Hotlink dept to expedite turning on my free data (more BS)
No.2 - she prints out my eStatement since August 1st and totaled up the data charges. According to her, its 59.xx so she will immediately credit me RM60 (later I came home and did my own calculation - found total to be RM74.28
No.3 - ask me to speak to their data consultant who told me to turn off PUSH and set Fetch to Manual
9 days and still my Free Data not turn on and counting......  

Just ignore that message. I think is their setting problem. I got this message too when they activate the free 500mb data. So far nothing goes wrong to my account, no deduction of that rm98. FYI I m using prepaid plan.

Go to Queensbay Maxis Centre. They can book prepaid 3Gs for you. Good customer service. Screw all other places that lies through the big noses.

BTW, I also receive the RM98 3GB SMS. I think that's an error eh. Should I try go pass the 500MB limit? Maybe can get 3GB free, hehe.

Then there is no need to worry already, since they have your report, i am sure that they will solve your problem, it is just a matter of time. Chill bro, at least you got your free data, just enjoy it first.

Finally after 14 days I got the SMS telling me my 500MB free data is now active. 
But does my "month" starts today or Aug 1st (the day I bought it) and how to confirm?
