Hi, i'm new to maxis postpaid ...using hotlink last time

i change to maxis value 30 on 24 sept 3pm and dint make call n sms,
on the midnite launch i upgrade to ivalue 1 plan ...

so my question is :
my plan will be ivalue 1 from value30 on the spot when i upgrade on the midnite launch rite???
(i did call up maxis CS to verify tat im on ivalue plan, just want to confirm with urs again )

cause on today morning(25 sept) i check my current billed amount is RM5.32 (24/10/2010) and total amount due = RM-24.68

and my Unbilled amount = RM 175.62( as if 25/9/10 7am)
(roughly usage of 20 min call, 40 mb data)
Does it means i need to pay the RM 175.62 ???but i dono y the bill is so high if its already ivalue1 plan ...
i did call up to maxis CS and the staff say she position is low so cant check n will submit this case to some other department n will contact me back later , but until now aso no news ... rclxub.gif

kinda worried now and need some advises from urs ... notworthy.gif

Don worry about the unbilled balance.
When the bill is finalized at the end of the month, u'll get rebate over the data usage.
Ever since I started using iValue plan I can't rely on the unbilled balance thingy.
*
Hmm hmm.gif u also facing this kind of problem before ???

what if the bill come at the end of the month and show the same as unbilled amount ???
still can check with maxis customer service at that time ? (either via phone or at maxis centre ) or cant do anything and need to pay tat amount ?

Think I am not alone here.

line 1 - ivalue 1, just switch from value plus 50, start from saturday night.  sunday morning unbilled amount 750 in the morning, now 870.  3 local calls to maxis line, 40mb usage.

unbilled amount before switch to ivalue 1, around RM40 - RM50, ZERO data usage.

line 2 - upgrade ivalue 2 on saturday night, unbilled amount 900 in the morning then now 1300.  5 or 6 local calls, maxis or celcom line, 100mb usage.

unbilled amount before upgrade, around RM40 - RM60, data usage before upgrade - 300mb.

I think a lot of people here are getting edgy and panic because of this "unbilled amount" thing but how maxis works is,

Unbilled amount  = payment if u did not have the free talktime & data (data is the one that kills cos 1mb is RM5 if u didnt have data plan)

How they actually bill u end of the month is that the data and talktime will be discounted off using a 'rebate' system.

How maxis counter this issue is give a lot more credit limit at account. Last time my account CL is almost RM3k when my actual monthly commitment is only RM30. So that way, your unbilled amount wont hit the ceiling.

Hope this clarifies for people

erm ...take my plan as a example,

Currently im taking ivalue1 RM100 plan, and the unbilled amount now is RM4,

Let say my unbilled amount is RM4 end of the month, so the total amount i need to pay is RM 100 or RM 104 ???

It will be RM100

Basically unbilled amount is the amount u have used so far without the rebates yet

Unbilled Amount - Free Talktime - Free Data = Actual Amount
*
Hmm... i hav track my record today based on the unbilled amount, i think the unbilled amount wont include free data ,
because today 10am ++ i hav around 4 mins of call and 2 sms, the charges is 81 sen , (unbilled amount at 10 am is rm4.25 and at 1pm is rm5.06)
then from 1pm till 6pm unbilled amount is rm 5.56 with 5 sms to hotlink no and few mb of data usage...

so i think they will include all the call n sms into unbilled amount but no data ...then end of the month only will know the exact amount ...

will call to maxis cs to confirm again, cause some of them just cant provide a better answer and say will contact me back ... doh.gif

so you mean the this 1st bill we are not entitle for the free xxx min of talk time and xxx SMS? because I got my bill, it states the calls are included in the calculation.

p/s: for 40 MB of 3G surfing already cost RM 400 like that, luckily it is waved  shakehead.gif

the 1st bill are entitle to have free xxx min talktime n xxx sms is ...and is included in the unbilled amount too(data usage wont be included in the unbilled amount) ,
only when the bill come then only will minus out the free xxx min of calls and xxx sms ...
this is what the Maxis CS told me ...
i roughly estimate my usage on call n sms to compare with the unbilled amount and it's amount charge is almost the same ...
i havent received my bill yet , so can't 100% confirm ...
