the best thing with Digi is that after u reach ur data cap limit, u will not be charged for the extra data, instead Digi will throttled down ur speed to edge which is 128kbps. Whereas Maxis will charged for the extra data used up to rm250 per month. Pls correct me if i'm wrong

rm106 per month plan is a bit misleading. In fact, rm106 for 1st 24 months is inclusive of the iDigi88 plan, then the next 12 remaining months is only paying for the phone only. Meaning for 25th-36th month, u need to subscribe another plan to access for voice and data.

Digi is cheaper if u use more then the Data Cap Limit bcoz they do not charged for extra Data usage. Also, free sms and mms is double and for all network. Unlike Maxis, u will be charged for extra data usage, free sms and mms for Maxis network only. The downside is, All Digi plan is for 24 months and voice mins is slightly lower. But, if you do not call much, then should not be a problem. Most iphone user use more Data then Voice call anyway

ur calculation seems a bit wrong

digi88: total cost over 24 months = 3816 <<< this had included the 5% govt tax (rm159x24 EPP All-in One)
maxis100: total cost over 24 months = 3790 <<< not yet included the 5% govt tax (rm100x24 + rm1390) ivalue100 plan still subject to 5% so ultimately you have to pay rm3910

after exceed ur quota, u will be still able to access internet but at a lower speed (edge 128kbps) and no extra charges. still good enough for normal web browsing/facebook/google but a bit slow for downloading or youtube etc...
