TAKE NOTE: [by slickz]



Do not post the RSVP links. The rsvp/booking is only for existing Maxis users and i'll be taking the URL down as this is inappropriate.

Also, it's for those who were in the iPhone 4 registration of interest list. Not open for registration and it's no where to be found on Maxis website. The URL was emailed their customers and not to the mass as they were their first priority listing.

Only, if Maxis website does post up the registration/rsvp openly to the mass, you may proceed to post the URL. Until then, no rsvp URL allowed to be posted for reasons stated above.

Thank you

A: No free bumper cases available. They are not giving out the bumper case @ the launch but u still can apply thru the Official Apple site. More info here: https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1509871

Q: can any1 confirm that u can get 2nd Iphone 4 off the contract (RRP) if u purchase 1st set with contract.
A: Yes you can. Just met a fellow forummer, he is the first 60 who got the phone. He also bought an additional phone outright.

Q: what if i have da confirmation id but im not going due to some personal reason n yet i asked my frens to go on behalf on me?? is it acceptable?
A: cannot i think. Just now i asked the maxis ppl at midvalley. He said u have to be there urself.

Q: Do they provide micro sim?
A1: No need to pay for Micro sim and you can get it there and then. Maxis will give you the MICRO SIM when you purchase the iPhone - FOC.[credit bontaku]

Q: buying iphone 4 outright..Could u tell us more details regarding it?
A1: Get into a contract - doesn't matter what plan - you get iphone from that contract.
You can then ADD JUST the iPhone 4 (doesn't matter what size). In total - one iPhone with contract and one without (please keep in mind - no sim lock) [credit bontaku]
A2: Bought my iphone 4 outright with no problem as long ur using ivalue plan [credit Freshie_Foo]

Q: What IOS 4 does it come with?
A: Maxis sets came with 4.0.2[credit teikwing]

Q: Installment plan? How?
A: The Visa/Master CR Card merchant is only for Citibank, HSBC, Public bank, Maybank and CIMB Bank on installment plans.

Example, If you purchase ip4 32GB on Ivalue 1 X 12 months contract = RM1990

Ivalue 1 : RM400 for 24 months and RM200 for 12months <--advance payment
ivalue 2 :RM620 for 24 months and RM200 for 12 months
ivalue 3 : RM1250 for 24 months and RM500 for 12 months
ivalue 4: RM2000 for 24 month, RM1000 for 12 months

This so called advance payment is either Swap your credit card which is not under installement plans, however there is a rebate RM40 X 5 months = RM200 which is credit back in your bill.
Basically the advanced payment will be credited equally over in 1st 5 months of your bill. [credit weileong]

@david , can you post the price plans from maxis or from lowyat front page. A lot of people will ask the same ol' questions like 524543342 times

Continue from previous thread ...BTW, I thought locking is 2500 posts per thread (125 pages) ?

Maxis website says, if take iData2 or iData3 plan, must accompany with the Value Plan/Plus 50 or higher, for a 12-months contract.

@cute_boboi,

Yes.. i did mentioned to him that i want to take iValue50 + idata2, but he exclaimedddd CANNOT!!

so how?

oh dear.. makes me wondering really bringing authorization letter will work or not..

later.. he kept me stranded at the queue by saying sorry.. bring your father along pls..

local calls means calls in malaysia nee. international calls are excluded from the 100bucks. i tink d maxis fella is sleepin on his job. get his name n complain to his superior.

@TS: can you please add this on 1st/2nd post too?

It's rather useful.

This is correct. iValue plan on the other hand is encompassing all. Why not take that one?

Hey bro, the rates+plan is in this thread: https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1504708

I did not want all these booking etc discussion to be mixed up with the other maxis thread as it will cause a major headache to discussion the booking and plans in one thread.

Also, these forumers can check the link on the first post for the iPhone+plans maxis link or visit maxis website.

@penman

Thank mate and great info. This is want we want in the forum..forumers posting good and valuable infos, not spam post and unconstructive post.

Cheers

Quoted from Maxis website:



Both iData2* and iData3* got this * sign. I think quite clear. Most likely CS is wrong.

Anyway, it is not iValue 50, but is Value Plus/Plan 50. I check my monthly billing and I'm currently on Value Plan 50.

I suggest if it is not you yourself, then don't waste time for the pre-launch. Wait few more days on next Mon. Else you will get more angry & frustrated at site, with each of the 50 people there, giving 50 different reasons.

@boxsystem

yes.. ivalue is more worthy perhaps IF.. they state their definition of "LOCAL" calls.. haha..

oh right, in the first place i wanted idata2, because.. i want to aim that my phone bill is RM100 every month..

but if local calls means maxis to maxis.. then definitely whenever i make a single call that is external, it will increase my bill already..

eh???
Data plans are for phones not bought from maxis??
x paham lah..
currently im on value plan, and i tot i can take the iData2 plan..?

can any1 clarify on this?
demit lah, different maxis people give different answers to LYN forumers..hahaha

@cute_boboi,

lol.. i like your quotation

"Else you will get more angry & frustrated at site, with each of the 50 people there, giving 50 different reasons."

@mhspeng

Really no need our parents go? If my own principal line is on my dad's name?just the letter and sign and photocopy of IC?

Second that...checked back my bill...Amount deducted from available iValue Talktime is combined Maxis & non maxis but local calls (Within Malaysia)

sigh, i really admire ur intelligence of believin every single info told to u from this so called 'smart' maxis ppl. every1 knows ivalue calls are to all networks. u dun need to worry bout dat problem. u oni need to worry bout ur sms, which is not in d plan. any sms to other telco will be charged separately.

@huaipoh,

i dont dare to say 100% confirm liao, after him giving such nonsense answer to my later questions..

worse is.. u know what.. he actually said other ppl might have asked an inexperience CS, telling them that bringing authorization letter doesnt work, because he already asked his supervisor...

LOL.i see.okay.thanks for info.

guys, im a little confused. please correct me if im wrong

but when they said "FREE local calls & SMS**" it falls in the field of "Between family lines". which means only principal call/sms to supp. lines right? is that what they meant?

::confuse::

Huh??? Local calls aren't Maxis to Maxis...look at the rates page. There's no asterisk beside the 333 minutes of local calls...only stuff with an asterisk is for Maxis to Maxis, like the SMS and MMS.
