Juz to clarify.
For example

Apple Bill wants 32 3GS with EPP for 32mths iDigi 88.
*Pls notified that digi only max tied up is 24mths which is 2years*.

So once he flashes his credit card he is hooked to 24mths of tied up contract with digi and additional 12mths with his bank.

For 24mths he isn't gonna be paying any bills unless he xceed his usage
*x-reference with the chart for useage allowance*
*5% tax will be imposed on extra useage for that mth*

Untill after 24mths later bill starts coming in. And it's time he is gonna get bill shock for 1 year of nightmare.
Total he had to pay for the 25th mth is 117+88 which is 205/mth.

He can choose to ditch digi by terminating his acc without penalties but he still needs to pay 117/mth for the last 1 year.

Total expenditure slapped by digi on these waterfish are
1990(subsidized rate)+(24x88)x5%tax=4207*total already paid*
if these waterfish ditched digi after 2years.
How do u actually get RM117/mth calculation?
{1990+[(24x88)x5%tax]}/36=116.87777777777__(rounded off to 117)*many fatchoi*

Total expenditure slapped by digi on these waterfish if they still want to continue.
1990(subsidized rate)+[(24x88)x5%tax]+[12x(88x5%tax)]=5316.40.
*Numbers been played around here and notice the difference.

It's still cheaper compared to maxis.
Though...... it's a little bit too late.
Android market is eating up Apple.
Apple 4g is around the corner soon.
Therefore i leave the rest imagination to u guys ^.^

Ya definitely true, apple is the culprit.
I really salute to the marketin dudes who made this plan out by pushing the last 3rd year to the bank.
Very clever marketing strategy and many surveys+research been done on the current market trend.
Customers will find it hard to argue on that.

It's mainly targetted on customers who find that it's too heavy to pull out over 3k of cash from their wallet.
Calculation been fully done and reduced to the lowest numbers as far as possible so that it do sounds very attractive and affordable.

If customers look at the flyers they will be confused.
So in the end the numbers became the devils to reel in customers ^.^

But for those who does do alot of research and brainstorming.They probably would not be tempted.
Unless they simply wants apple.
