Hello,
I'm planning to buy an iPhone 4 16GB with maxis under contract. I have a few questions in mind that I'd like to clarify before I proceed on with the purchase:
1. I'm considering to apply for iValue 1 plan, what I need to know is how much do I have to pay upfront? I'm somewhat confused with the prepayment of monthly fees as stated on the Maxis webpage. Assuming that I plan to go for a 12-month contract on a 16GB model, the prepayment of RM200, is it included in the phone price itself (meaning iPhone 4 RM1490 + prepayment RM200 = RM 1690) or is it calculated as a separate payment (iPhone 4 RM1690 + prepayment RM200 = RM1890)?
2. I would like to know what is the difference between iValue and iData plans? Also, which of the two plans do Maxis iPhone users typically go for?
I would greatly appreciate any response to my queries. Thanks.

1. It is RM1890 just as u calculated..the rm200 will be deducted in your 1st 5 statements i.e. rm 40 per month.
2. iValue(1,2,3 & 4) plan is the package where the line charges and data usage n other benefit are included..whereas iData plan is only for data plan that is paired with current value50@80@etc..for details,please browse thorugh maxis official website or their qualified CS..most of iphone users picked the ivalue plan..if u compare the benefit between these 2 plans,the most noticable diff is the free data usage given.
Some additional suggestions and advice from me;
a) they're 2 telcos that officially sell iphone 4with plan,maxis n digi..both have pros n cons..if u want an unlimited plan where it doesn't charge normally after exceed limit,or mostly be in urban areas, maintainence-free(bill-wise)then u should go for digi..but if u want wide coverage n don't mind paying more,then go for maxis..please be informed that if u go for maxis,u really need to know the tips n tricks to avoid billshock because maxis will charge u at normal rate if exceed limit(rm0.05/1KB)..THE 1ST MONTH BILL IS THE MOST DANGEROUS WHERE U CAN EASILY GET BILLSHOCK..if u can master them tricks,then u'll be fine.
b) so,do an honest assessment in terms of internet data usage..choose wisely.
c) get as much information as u can until u're satisfied to make a decision. it'll help u in the time of need.
Happy choosing
