dear all, sorry to interrupt;
I'm not sure i'm asking in the right channel or not; but need some advise.
I'm just bought an iphone from maxis last week (no contract) and using a regular value plus plan (value plus 80, to be exact) w/o iData subcribed.
1) Does the same rate of 1kb/sen applied for me if I'm surfing the net on Iphone same as previous GPRS/EDGE/3G usage ? Just to confirm if they have different rate for accessing WAP portal (regular phone) and WWW pages (iPhone) ..
2) if I go for iData 250mb.. would it be sufficient for regular internet; facebook, flickr, YM, news, etc?
Thanks in forward
So in other words, you have no data plans included over your voice plan right? If that is the case,
1. Yes, you're subject to the usual data/price rate. The Value Plus Plan has 'Pay As You Use' so you're paying the expensive rates. If I am not mistaken, surfing over the WAP Portal is free of charge until you go outside of that Portal. This is applicable to all phones operating within Maxis network.
2. In my case, I can't even use more than 100MB of data per month. I'm always logged into IM, FB and some light surfing, rarely Youtube. Guess 250MB is enough for myself. But I would recommend 500MB just in case.
