Can use straight away.
Just in future, you need to top up once no money inside, just like prepaid phone.

Or

subscribe the 68 package as monthly charge (3.5GB) which is cheaper.

No contract.

Don't want to use, leave it.

But they will charge Rm30 as basic monthly charges.
Use RM30 for the month, no extra commitment charge
Use Rm20, charge Rm10
Use Rm10, charge Rm20.

Basically, at least Rm30 will be gone from your prepaid each month. (start from second month, so first month no use, no charge RM30, only charge what you have used)

It is quite good for light surfing.
Speedtest wise, consistently get >5mbps with 2 bar signal.

You can keep the pack, but once credit runs out, you need to top up in 3 months time, so that the account is not deactivated, as far as I read the Faq.

I don't categorize as lose out.

This feature will ensure, no people hogging of bandwidth, which in turn better speed for all users.

This is same with phone call, you use you pay. May be the rate of per MB is debatable.

Since streamyx has a package of unlimited free land line call. A few of my relatives keep on use the phone, and talk for hours, hogging the phone and talk about trivia issue all the time.

There is no termination fee or procedure as far as I know.

Since it is prepaid, you never sign any contract, so don't need to terminate.

Out of credit for 3 months, auto-terminated.

Huh?
The FAQ stated clearly, the number/account will be terminated after 3 months run out of credit.

RM180, means >6 months already?

Now having problem to surf.
No problem for connection, but cannot surf, ping test all failed, despite with IP address assigned and gateway.
Anyone has the same problem?

My speed using Yes, is always at around 5-6 mbps, quite satisfy with it.

Normal usage like FB, email, ordinary surfing usage is about Rm50 per month, average around RM2 per day, (not using valuepack, PAYU).

The good is if no use time, doesn't need to pay (if already use RM30).

Quite a decent as secondary Broadband or light usage.

Added on August 3, 2011, 2:23 pmWhat I like the most is, simply just bought a Go Starter Pack, scratch the password, viola, straight away can use.
Don't need register, wait for activation, instant online, like those 3G BB.

Go Starter Pack is sold at Rm100, with Rm50 rebate inside which can be used straight away, and come with Dongle.
So indirectly, the Dongle only cost Rm50.

Just fyi,
I can get 9.x Mbps at my relative house in town area, with 3 bar signal.

Actually, pre-4G or not, just academic issue only.
I don't see much an issue for ordinary users like us.
Yes, advertisement sometimes boosting,
but it is quite norm across in advert industry,
it is not limited to BB or Telcos, we also see a lot of advertisement stated as low as RMx.xx but after enquiry, mostly cannot get the "as low as" that price because or T&C.

Users only concern what speed can be delivered, the quality of the delivery, and the cost, disregard being advertised as 3G, 3.5G, or 5G.

Added on August 19, 2011, 4:38 pmJust like when ADSL started time, people said it has capability of 4Mbps or 8Mbps, new tech, so good, whatever G anyone want to label it,
but subscribers only can get 512kbps or 384kbps only.

I don't know why lot of people single out YES is expensive.

Yes, 3.5GB for RM68
D - 3GB for Rm58/68
M - 3GB for RM68
C - 3GB for Rm68

All wireless BB pricing is roughly the same.
If Yes is expensive, so does the rest.

While if compared Yes with Streamyx.
Streamyx highly is definitely cheaper if one constantly hog the line one.

But with streamyx, it is impossible to have more than 4Mbps.
To have 4Mbps, it cost Rm140, which is near to 10GB of YES valuepack.

But YES can have higher speed than 4Mbps streamyx.
and have mobility.
Streamyx, if you need it at 2 place, you need 2 subscription.

So it is very difficult to say which one is definitely better than the others.
It depends one pattern of usage, depends which is suit to.

Nobody care what is the theorectical max speed, what the advertisement or even package stated how fast is the speed.
Users only care what is the speed they are getting, what they are experiencing and that's why people posted in this topic.

For me if there is valuepack Rm68 - 5GB is good enough already.

Possible, if competition intensify.
Now we see, Celcom got RM68 - 4GB.

Yes, you can straight away use and online with password provided in the scratch card.

Pay RM100, you get a dongle, and rebate RM50 for you to surf.
Nothing else you need.

Added on October 3, 2011, 3:22 pmYes, with RM100 GO start pack, install the "Connect" software" then plug in the dongle will do.

If you buy the valuepack Rm68 you get 3.5GB, which valid for 1 month.

If you don't want to buy the valuepack, you surf based on 3 cents pricing.

From my experience, near window, and more open space, always can get better signal bar.

Free rebate/credit cannot be accumulated, once expired, burned.
After all it is free.

I don't think it is not good or not.
Already used up the quota given/boought, no complaint about it.

As Yes counted/charged based on used bandwidth, not monthly charges all the while.
You buy the quota not validity period.

Validity period is to ensure users consume it, same with the intention of RM30 min charges.

I am ok with VP, that the remaining unused quota can be accumulated when renewing the VP.

But still hope, they can give better offer with RM68, like for 5GB.

Date of reload.

Can, as long as you got the balance, can use already.

But after next month, if use up 10 and never top up, a 20 will be charged, aka account show -20, due to minimum 30.

The credit is there forever, but will be charged min 30 every month, if no use.
if use 5, then charge 25.
if use 30, no charge.

No matter how, you will be charged 30 min per month.

Account should be showing -55.
So cannot use.

Added on October 24, 2011, 11:18 amCredit will not expire.
But they will charge min 30 per month, or must use 30 per month.
No matter how, a min spending 30 is required.

Credit will be brought forward one.
This month got 35 balance (and you have use more than 30), the 35 will still there.
Next month reload 30 become 65.

Yes, quota will be carried forward if continue to buy/subscribe the valuepack 68.

It should be the same, as it works based on the wireless BB connection, aka it is a voip.
Not 100% sure on this.

You cannot online anymore, if run out of quota, or run out of credit.
It will re-direct you the "out of credit?" Yes website.
Just experienced few days ago.
