if EPP 24 for 138 plan = 4584 for a 3GS 16gb. Hmm worth it or not? sighz...

but if u go EPP 24 u hav to use credit card to swipe the whole amount ,no?

This is because Apple expects payment from Digi for each iPhone sold, same applies to Maxis, and even iPhone in US.

Maxis has 12 mths plan, but u r still paying as much for the iPhone itself, diff is with Digi, the contract is spread even across 24 mths. If cash up front is painful, opt for the credit card 0%PP. U hv option to stretch that to 36 mths (the 24+12 payment option).

So far, as per Maxis, all iPhone plans are for main line only, not applicable to sub-line(s). I doubt Digi will do anything diff (they need to recover their revenue ma), but hope someone can prove me wrong.

Digi's plan is cheaper in the long run, due to the FREE internet data after yr allocation. I think they will throttle yr speed down to EDGE, but its way better than paying 1sen there after as per Maxis.

Its designed to get NEW iPhone buyers, esp those in Dig that have not switched over to Maxis, and in this aspect, i think the Digi plan is good.

I am getting one later....

I'm not sure but you've reminded me that I don't have CC. Upfront method is the only way I have now it seems. Perhaps I'll just get iphone 3G instead of 3Gs.

But be aware that you will NOT be paying yr monthly fees for the next 24 mths...

Say u pay monthly = RM138. With 0%PP, u pay RM191.

So RM191 - RM138 = RM53 per month (for the next 24 mths) to own an iPhone....

I think its worth it.... esp if u plan to stay with Digi for a looooong time...

Aiyaa.. simple calculation would do lerr..

FOR EPP 24 mths
4584 - 1090 = 3494

3494/24 mths = RM145.58 ~ RM138 + 5% service charge

FOR cash 1090 + 6mths upfront
1090 + (138+5%)*6 = RM1959

(138+5%)*(24-6) = RM2608

Total = RM4567

Difference so little.. BUUTTT.. if you discount the upfront cash payment in 2 over 24 months.. sure you lose some..

BUT if you take EPP 24 mths.. your monthly commitment is higher lorr..

PEACE OF MIND VS LOW INITIAL COST

It means that for the first 24 months, the $$$ is inclusive of the price of the phone and the line package. The next 12 months, the $$$ paid is only for the phone, you have to top up the package $$$...

this is the information I got from Digi center.

the question is can the new phone be jailbroken ?

i jz call digi centre.. the CS told me tat tis idigi can haf sub line.. bt is only ur subline is using idigi as well.. >_<

u can't take the sub 30/50..

i think i better go to the digi centre personally for a better picture.. so confuse..

So which means the RM95 u pay after the 1st 24 months is for the phone only and we have to pay additional $$ for our call, sms, and whatever?

RM95 for first 24 months, for iphone+call plan. Then RM95 for remaining 12 months, for iphone. During the remaining 12 months, you need to get your own call plan and pay for it.

bt the free voice call is so lil.. in the end i guess.. one haf to pay the plan plus the xtra voice call..

ya.. was wondering can that 88 can include those sub line? bcos 200 minute is quiet less for me

The 88 plan talk time is indeed a little miserable for the working people. Why not get 138? Not much of a jump + cheaper iphone after all.

EPP 24 plan with 3GS 16GB - every mth they just deduct 159 from my CC.. is that all? so upfront no need to pay anything?

nope.. but bear in mind tat if u reach the max quota for voice, sms n mms.. u haf to pay extra $$

Alright. But the thing is for this EPP 24, your CC must be 1 of the 5 they stated there - ambank,cimb,maybank,citibank hsbc? If other CC cannot r ???

Hope in coming months Digi will have more packages....

probably cannot or having extra changer only lo.. probably extra additional fees lo.. bcos that time when i buy maxis that time also like this..

i interested on digi 88 but the problem is can't get enough time to call as well

can't.. only the stated credit card for epp

unless u charge the full amt on ur other cc thn from ur card itself.. change to epp installment loh.. some cc gt tis kind of benefit..
