in my previous experiment (4 years ago if not mistaken), u can do this:

u and ur dad both go to digi, swap ur number and dad for primary and supp line.

assume ur dad is rm50 and u is rm30. so then, ur number will be primary and ur dad number will be supp line. u rm50, ur dad rm30.

next, u sign up for the iphone plan, let say rm88. keep ur dad num as supp line. monthly commitment will be minimum rm118 (excluding tax).

but of coz, since u pay advanced rm600 when purchase iphone then u will get rm25 rebate per month for it will be rm63+rm30 = rm93.

and, sign up for direct debit so get additional rm5 monthly rebate

i assuming he and his dad both want to keep current number, and still want to be under 1 family plan (free call & sms).
thats why i suggest he to swap with his dad to be primary line so can use plan 88.



ok. here the explanation.

look here, the lowest 1, idigi 88 which is rm88 per month but cut to rm63 per month, right?

then look here, for idigi 88, 16gb is rm1490.
then look at the right - pay now rm2090 (this is extra rm600 from rm1490), and next 24 months rm63. correct?

that extra rm600, will be rebate back to your monthly bill, rm25 for 24 months (rm600/24 = rm25).

so thats why idigi plan 88 become 63. bcoz u pay upfront that rm25 (for 24 months!).

hope this will make u clear ~



correct

just want to explain more (same as my post above):

u paying the iphone actually rm1010 only.
that extra rm1080, will be rebate back to ur bill rm45 per month for 24 months.
thats why the idigi 138 will be rm93 only for the 1st 24 months.

1st u should stated u purchased 32gb, and digi 58 is actually idigi 88
rm58 is only if u paid rm25 in advanced then sign up for auto billing for another rm5 discount.

ok, ur bill will only shows normal rm88 + 5% so it will be rm92.40, and this amount will be waived.
assuming u never use extra than ur free monthly usage (call/sms/mms).

this is bcoz u already pay ur m92.40 early for 24 month - which is rm2217.60.
then ur iphone will be rm1860 only (another rm30 discount).

the 1 that show rm169.90 monthly is ur credit card bill (1st or last payment may differ a bit).

www.digi.com.my/ocs is faster

welcome.

yes digi only shows rm88 not rm169. but that rm88 will be waived (deduct from advanced payment).

option 2 did put the info at the website = EPP 24 months: includes the iPhone + 24 months monthly fee + 5% service tax, over 24 months.

if let credit card monthly to credit itself, that is auto billing (additional rm5 rebate will be given).

u can choose option 1, pay rm2090, monthly will be rm58 (after tax is rm62.40 - tax is charge based on rm88 then deduct rm30).
that rm62.40 (or whatever ur total amount bill) the 1 will be credit direct to ur credit card. option 2 also can sign up for this.

but for option 1, u cannot do epp for rm2090 u pay using credit card, unless u call ur bank & convert it to epp manually (got 1 time charge, depends on bank).

u both need to go to digi and port. but, only primary line can use idigi plan.
so either u both no longer under family plan (both will be primary line and no more call/sms feee between u), or,
if want to stay as family plan, then primary use idigi plan while supp go sign up for digi internet unlimited rm68 per month (so minimum bill for supp line is rm98 monthly).

correct, but call between u guys (FnF) will be charged 10sen/min (happy hour is 5sen/min).

family plan will give u 900 mins free call each number, 2 number will be free rm180 (based on FnF rate).

assuming u will call the FnF number 500 mins per month at non-happy hour, so do the other number will call u,
then, both number using idigi88 bill will be free 200 mins + 300 mins call FnF is rm88+ rm30 = rm118 x 2 = rm236.

remember, this calculation is only for 500 mins FnF (assume u take 200 mins from free usage).
also, this is without sms between FnF and without call/sms to other number!

so, in my opinion, better 1 use idigi 88, another 1 using supp line rm98 (after additional rm68 internet unlimited). so monthly will be rm186 only.
and both of u can call each other 900mins free per month (also free sms and mms).

please note my calculation rm88 is without deducting rm25 dvanced payment also rm5 auto payment (if applicable)

ur welcome.

port from other telco, if prepaid, should not take long time.
if postpaid, clear all ur bill 1st then just wait. how long? depends ~


bcoz previously, free for 15 hours only, per number. 15 hours = 900mins.
so if 1 primary have 1 supp line, then both number will share 30 hours between them.

but now, digi stated it as "unlimited". sorry for my previous post.

that 900 mins just to show for calculation if not using digi family plan and choose to use FnF. since now its unlimited, then very worth using it (for case of Calvin28).

for un-married couple, maybe 30 hours per month is not enough for them? i'm married. never reach 1800 mins per month

please see it here - http://www.digi.com.my/postpaid/digi_postp.../post_bv_fnf.do

yes thats all. pay that rm2490 and bring ur iphone home ~

ur bill will be rm63 for the 1st 24 months (rm2490 - rm1890 iphone price / 24 months as rebate to rm88).

igetmore only for stated mins/sms/mms per month cycling bill, to all network.

its just to compare with green telco - coz their free call/sms/mms only for same network.

for dg family, both postpaid and prepaid also can. refer here - http://www.digi.com.my/postpaid/digi_postp...ary.do?page=cha

sorry, cannot!

EPP terms itself is for credit card only. not debit.

if u mean supplimentary line, yes you can. its called dg family. refer here - http://www.digi.com.my/postpaid/digi_postp...ary.do?page=cha

for idigi plan, the free call/sms/data are for primary line only! cannot shared!
exampe idigi88, only primary line got 200 mins to call to any number exclude his/her supp line number.

for dg family, the free call/sms/mms are between the primary num and supp line num. call/sms ur supp line number as much as u want.

and, idigi88 normal monthly fee is rm88, idigi138 is rm138, while idigi238 is rm238.


ur digi bill and credit card bill definately are not same billing date.
ur digi bill can be 25th each month, while ur credit card statement date is 4th each month.
wait for ur digi bill later, it should stated that bill already paid on <date as stated on ur credit card bill>.


sure u can. no prob. u can even sign up for EPP if ur bank is supported.
