i just got my white ip4 just now @ 9pm in bangsar.     , took the i98 package , paid around 1.7K++

would like to say a few words on celcom data coverage and speed.

i'm currently on exec 250 package, which has unlimited data integrated. i travel alot, sometimes to ulu places (construction sites). i'd say tat i'm very happy with celcom's coverage, on voice and data. on edge, webpages loading is acceptably slow, but for urgent needs like online banking transfer etc, it'll still serve the purpose, just have to wait some time. maxis is lacking in rural coverage (i have a usb modem on maxis too), and digi is way behind with no data network avail in rural areas. with celcom, i can easily hop on to hsdpa or 3g network in populated areas, even in highway r&r.

therefore, i ended up using my phone' wifi router program for internet on my laptop most of the time.  even my browsing of lyn webpages are done thru mobile phone (lazy to take out laptop).

have been with celcom for more than 10yrs, and noticed their customer service also improved alot.

anyway, going to signup for iphone plan tis Sun, having two invitations, one at bangsar and one at curve. wondering which one to go... hmmm...

p/s: no fees collected from tis free ad for celcom

I got my 1st bill today. At first shocked coz need to pay rm134

I subscribe to Celcom ip98 on 8/5/2011. Cut off date for my bill is 18/05.

I got a bill dated 18/05 - to pay RM134.. Called 1111 to clarify

8/5 - 17/5 - rm32 (pro-rated)
18/5 - 17/6 - rm98 (iphone package)
Total: 134 (include taxes)

At 1st shocked coz i thought rm134 is usage from 8/5 - 17/5 (hahaha).. Never know celcom commitment fees have to pay early of the month...

Is this common? Maybe 1st time using Celcom PP.

Thanks
