I am on a Value Plan 80 but my bill is about RM150 - RM200 every month. I want a 16gb iPhone 3G[S], what is a good plan for me?

For a 12 month interest free installment, the phone goes for RM1990. Does that mean I take RM1990 / 12 mths = RM165.84 on a monthly basis on top of the iValue 100 commitment?

Additionally I would like to ask about the free benefit data, SMS, MMS - will they be available on the 2nd month if unfinished on the first month or is it free monthly? E.g. When I only used 200MB on the first month, will the balance 300MB be forwarded to the next month? Do I get 500MB data free every month?

Lastly, I saw at the disclaimer "Value 1 at RM400 for 24 months and RM200 for 12 months" What does it mean?

1. the same question has raised over and over again in this thread. and again, it all boils down to your usage. if your spend mostly on calls, opt for iValue then. iData is for those who would like keep their current plan (VP50, 80 etc.), subscribe to data usage and obtain the iPhone at a subsidized price.

2. yes. installment plans are only available for credit card holders for selected banks. do check out the first page.

3. no. it will not be brought forward.

4. read the fine prints. it's the prepayment fees aka advance payment.

Hi teikwing,
Thank you so much for replying. iData means we can use iPhone for surfing the web and also A-GPS with faster lock on is it?

Not sure if this is the calculation but appreciate anyone who can correct me:

Value Plan = RM80
iData Value Plan 2 = RM50 (for 500MB)
32GB iPhone 3GS = RM2590 / 12 mths = RM215.84

Meaning, my monthly Maxis bill will be RM80 + RM50 + RM215.84 for 12 mths, total = RM345.84? And that is minimal considering I do stop at Value Plan RM80 which is rarely the case. Correct?

tinkerbel,
Thanks for the confirmation. I most probably will just go with this package as it enables me to surf the net.


teikwing,
Thank you too!
