sumtime their KENAN billing system is not really "REAL" time

so customer like us suffer instead

y not pay cash?? i have seen alot u guys opt for creditcard??

???

That is exactly why I opted for the 0% interest free plan using HSBC. Actually the RM100x12 months for me is no difference from the Value 80 I was using cause it is only extra RM20 per month.

Hei guys would like to know will there be a installment package for Hotlink users???

@Double_Ace,
There's no installment plan by Maxis for Hotlink users. U could try with your Credit Card company to see if they can offer U installment plans though.

guys,

got another question. is there any hidden charges in bill instead i choose ivalue1. is there any other charges exclude monthly fee and charge to another telco?

can do like tis?

Yes, some credit card companies have flexi-payment schemes. Usually the divides are 6, 12, 24, 36 months with varying interests. The interests also depends on the amount committed to flexi-payment. There's usually a minimum amount for 6, 12, 24, 36 months installment periods. How to do it? First make certain that your bank offers such a service and know what are the rates. Then just swipe the amount in full. Then call in to confirm that you want the last transaction converted into flexi-payment. Tell them how many months you wish to commit. The customer service executive will calculate the approximate amount you need to pay every month. Then wait a few days up to a week for them to approve your application.

Approval is usually guaranteed provided you satisfy the following:

- Enough free credits every month. Meaning you do not have other flexi-payments at the same time. Lets say your credit is 6000 but you already have 4000 committed for other flexi-payments. So you have balance 2000. Thats not going to cut it.
- Your credit history or payment history is satisfactory. The banks have ways and formula to calculate your statistics like your age, your monthly salary, etc and come out with a probability of 'fleeing payments'. If you fall within the safe category, then it'll be approved.

Guys, I am still confused about the free local calls subject for Value Plan 1 (RM 100 = Gives 337 free minutes). If I exceed the free quota allocated, I will be charge 15 cents/min. However, these additional charges applies after the RM 100 or they only start counting after you used up the free minutes allocated? For example, for this particular month I would used up to 700 minutes, do the extra charges is RM 54.45 cents. Do I have to pay RM 154.45 cents or RM 100 (Since I use below the commitment rate)?

And how do 500mb worth of free data fare well with everyday usage of MSN and google talk? Is it feasible?

Oh by the way can I subscribe to value plus? (The one that gives 8 cents/min and 1 cent/sms to 8 favorite Maxis numbers)

Hi guys,I bought my iPhone3G with maxis plan last few monthe but I feel that my home button a little bit stiff compare with other iPhone can I claim warranty with maxis? They will give me a new unit or just reapiar the button for me?

Well if you reject the current phone, most likely you'll get a replacement. Maxis don't run a repair service. However, whether you will get a new one or a certified repaired unit, I am not sure. But in my opinion, its good that it is stiff now. Cause it'll definitely 'loosen' up a bit after some time. So you do mean, dead stiff as in there is a problem with the button placement?

other then that my sleep button is very deep inside compare with other iphone.

iValue1= RM100 = RM50 (talk time, 337 minutes) + RM50 (500MB data).

if exceed the given talk time need to pay extra

so i would like to suggest value plan 50 + idata2 = RM100.

Reason: Cheaper call rate n bundled with sms too, even though the revised ivalue also includes sms but i think its only for maxis to maxis

As for the 500MB monthly data usage, try for a month or two first. If u think u need to use more, u can always upgrade. Reminder: Downgrade will be penalized.

i signed during the preoder period , i dun remember seeing the free smses, that day i browse thru only i notice that, so am i automatically eligible for it? or no?

From what I gathered, it is across the board meaning every customer who has the iValue plan is entitled to whatever is thrown in.

y dont u do some phone calls to verify n let us know?

Hmm why do you suggest this? Value Plan 50 seems to be having a more expensive calling rate to other network which is at 18 cents per minute. Unless of course, Value Plan 1 from iphone deal (15 cents) is only for Maxis to Maxis rate.

Just a question, can I subscribe to Value extra if I were to use Ivalue Plan instead of Value Plus?

hmm.. actually i was planing to get a iphone 3gs from maxis as well but i was wondering can i just get 1 month idata 1 and purchase a iphone separately? since
**idata plan can be purchase separately iphone will be rpp price

because i asked maxis staff they told me can't buy prepaid plan iphone ad since it is cut off by maxis.. so i was wondering this idea can be use?

besides this, idata 1 iphone can use installment?

It is the same as prepaid plans. Outright purchases are not available until further notice because there has been a surge in demand for Iphone from contract customers. Maxis have to make ways to put contract customers priority first before they start selling it to prepaid and idata1 customers.

then how is about the in machine? can i buy like idata 1 with iphone separate?
