ok i just make an online booking. One thing, you have to pay the deposit at the same place you want to collect from. Why cant they accept payment from online or even any Maxis centre?

I feel the prepaid deal is quite reasonable. If compare with iData RM50 - geez it comes to the same thing and you are tied down for a year or two. They should make their postpaid plans more attractive

hey, you can also add Direct Access MasterCard to the list. They're also offering 0% interest rate for ANY purchases made to the card. Also up to December 2009.

comes in 2 flavours:
10 months instalment = minimum RM1000
20 months instalment = minimum RM3000

also, more information, contact CIMB.

But you forgot to mention that there is a processing fee of 3% for the 10 months installment....
So its not entirely free

still no sms regarding the free 500MB thingy. and this iphone if no wifi will keep connecting to maxis network. I already checked my hotlink statement - used up almost rm10 just today - for what? I got no idea cause I didnt do any surfing when there is no wifi.

ya i think im one of the statistic. got my phone on saturday, until now no sms about the free 500MB. someone from maxis called me yesterday and ask for my imei number etc but no news after that.

maybe can use the data kau kau now and let them waive it later on, or worse, they will deduct from the 500MB

Those bought under Hotlink plan - even after your free 500MB data has been activated, do check your account from time to time. Mine is still showing a bunch of 1 to 2 cents data charges.

I also call their Hotline to confirm my starting date so I know when to reset my monthly usage. Stupid CS told me that 500MB is for one year! Dunno whether to laugh or scream at her.

Now trying to find out why I am still incurring data charges

I bought my iPhone under the hotlink plan with free 500mb. Was wondering after the year pass, can prepaid users subscribe to any data plans?

hopefully by next year will have iphone 4th gen and then can buy and get another year of free data usage instead of paying for rm68 per month

my one month anniversary was yesterday, my usage is less than 250MB


nokia2003, maybe its not the 3 megapixel camera cause the mms and email, the size of the photo is scaled down to something very small. Maybe its the Notification or Push setting

no self control needed. infact i dont even bother to use Cellular Data Network to key in wrong characters etc to turn off Maxis data. I set my wifi and data to be on all the time. I surf daily without any restrain and yet my usage is only 212MB for my first month. I do have Notification and Push set to off though

maxis should somehow sent out periodic text messages that states the current usage for the day, or week or when u are at 50% 75% and 85% ...

but no ... because they want to charge you for the excess ...

i called them up the other day, they have no access to the current usage on their system, so i asked them if you have no view of my current usage how will the system know when to start charging me for excess ... the fella cannot answer, i thanked him and hanged up ...

no need periodic sms la, just one is enough to say today is a new month. even Digi give you an sms after every call to let you know how much was the last call and your balance

i have to charge it several times a day. its docked most of the time but i can say that the battery drains off pretty fast when surfing. But it doesnt drain when on standby mode. I do not have facebook or IM on but you cant multitask anyway right? I find that quite troublesome with no multitasking, I cant surf and have Yahoo Messenger up at the same time

sorry for the OT
