same problem here. but if u dial *122# (Check hotlink balance), u will see tat no charges has been deducted watsoever.
so i think that 1sens estatement is just to show when u started surfing.

this is what i found out... when u use the data, it will 1st charge 1 or 2 sen, then after some time (few minutes after u ended ur surfing) the system will credit back the 1 or 2 sen...

hey guyz,im new in diz kinda things
i need help from u guyz,
i need to know what is the cheapest plan possible for me to get
an iphone 3gs 16gb since prepaid method is in suspension rite now?
im juz a hotlink customer so im not a customer of any maxis postpaid plan,
does i need both ivalue and idata plan to have an iphone??
please3 im desperate~

Value Plus 50 + iData2

You cannot choose iData1 since it is not contracted, so you cannot do booking.

which one is more budget saving,
whether i subscribe value plus 50+ iData 50.
or juz iValue 1?
but plus 50 is RM0.12/minute and 0.05/sms
while iValue is RM0.15/m and 0.10/sms...

this question has been discussed previously. do read up.

if your monthly usage is more on calls than SMS, and looking to pay lesser upfront for iPhone, get iValue.

if you're looking to have benefits such as credit sharing with supplementary lines, lower call rates, SMS included in monthly usage instead of separate billing, doesn't mind to pay lil' bit more upfront for the phone, get iData.

normally, it's advisable to get Value Plan + iData if you're a normal usage with balanced usage of calls and SMS.

thanks guys you r right. My balance is the same

Guys pls help out as the topic stated
Can i use the 500mb data from maxis on other phone?

@Mr Kong,
Yes. The 500MB data is just not transferable to another SIM but not limited to usage on just the iPhone. There is also no need to start another topic on this. Will be merging this with the The Official Thread for Maxis iPhone 3G/3GS thread.

@Mr Kong,
There is really no way for Maxis to determine how much of the 500MB was used on an iPhone or any other phones for the matter. AFAIK they can only track total usage; hence in theory U should be able to utilise the 500MB data on a BlackBerry or Nokia, or any other handset.

I want to buy Iphone 3Gs using prepaid package,
before this I heard that maxis have suspended
this package until further notice.
Recently i heard that maxis will re-open
back the prepaid package on 9th Sept,
i really hope so coz to subscribe ivalue 100
is quite pain in the ass for me as a private
university student.

@darksterz,
I believe Maxis suspended the pre booking for Hotlink users onli because they wanted to give preference and priority to their current subscribers. As soon as new stocks arrive, I'm sure Maxis will re open selling the i3GS on an outright prepaid basis

Yeah, i agree with you totally,
i hope that what u said will become reality
cuz i have dream to own an i3Gs for-ever.

I am assuming that someone here works for maxis so i would really like to find out when will the iphone 3gs stock be arriving? I have already paid my pre-boking deposit bout 2weeks ago... if this question has already been answered, sorry for repeating.
Regards.

@darksterz,
U'll never want the i3GS forever. Come Jun/Jul 2010 U'll be wanting the new iPhone that's gonna be launched *smiles*

@jags,
No one can answer ur question; also we don't have any Maxis personnel here; we just try to provide as much information as we can. Anyhow, it seems from reports the i3GS stocks are arriving on a "scattered" basis. U could contact the centre in which U placed ur order to check availability of ur i3GS.

Thanks for the fast reply tinkerbel.. Im from penang and made my booking in northam tower. Unfortunately maxis does not wanna give me their northam tower branch number.. i have to walk in and find out myself.. feel like telling him "u think i sit at home everyday.... no need work ahh" Neways thanks for the quick response

just asking if the ivalue1 plan can add on to family plus plan 30 or value plus for supp line? ?

can i get back the the deposit if i cancel the order now?

just wanna clarify with the 3g stuff

i do believe i got charge of 1-2sen and i am using the hotlink plan which free 500mb permonth for a year...now i try to activate the 3g by calling *136# to get the 3g sms to say i am activate...so now there is a question of

does 3g related to the cellular network stuff?
the username and password stuff which are unet and maxis..or this is only related to edge? if i change the unet to unet9 inorder to close my edge will this effect my 3g? and the charging part which makes me dun understand it....1-2sen rate...am i using 3g or edge? do edge charges?
