Hmm I'll port out from Hotlink once my youth club expires...

Hello everyone, im from Singapore and I just bought a hotlink 8.80 prepaid card and topped up RM20 when i registered.

However, I realise something strange when I check my statement. I was charged multiple times for GPRS at RM1.. Anyone knows how to avoid this?

I topped up on 14:38:06 and from then on, I was charged RM1.. until my RM20 went 0...





I read the first post of this thread and I'm suspecting that I need to deactivate GPRS using this..

Please advice. Thank you.

Please disable data on your phone.

The thing is I need mobile internet...

Then find out what is using up the internet loh...

What phone are you using?

Im using iphone and I activated the 1 day RM8 500MB already. But it is still charging me usage for GPRS.

your statement suggests that you did not renew the RM8 daily package

after 24 hours it lapses, and you will be charged pay as you use (PAYU) rates if you do not buy another pass

that's why the PAYU charges started on 23 Jan, 24hrs and 10 seconds after you subscribed on 22 Jan

Hi, does anyone know any USSD String to sms/query our SMS Usage?
Something like what AT&T provides in the US.

The reasons I'm asking is because there isn't any app nor is it in the Settings of our iPhone to find out about how many SMS'es sent out.

I called Maxis but they couldn't give me.

Thanks in advance

HYC club have daily SMS counter under USSD

The code is *127# and that is only for SMS to Maxis-Hotlink numbers

As far as I know, it does not work for other plans

Dear dgboy,

Thanks for the info.
I guess Maxis programmers or technical people out there will know the USSD string to give us a SMS sent out count.
But anyway, your information is appreciated.

By the way, does anyone of you out there know of any iOS app that is similar to JupiterApps' "PhoneUsage" ?

would like to ask...

is hotlink 365 still around?
http://www.hotlink.com.my/web/portal/hotli...seDefaultDesc=0

website say still around, but how come i m reading that the plan is discontinued?
i m confused

Hotlink 365 is now only available on the older plans called Basic and Extra

ic. how to know what plan i'm in?
hotlink plan seems to be confusing

i just switch from postpaid to prepaid .

the maxis staff say , get the rm5 old style top up coupon , i can get 90days validity ?

but i tried with rm10 coupon , the validity still stuck at 1/3/2012, it didnt change .just the balance change

any idea on how the new top up validity rated?

eg rm10 for 10days ? rm30 for 30days ?


does i eligible to apply for hotlink 365?

that staff give you wrong info

the newest Hotlink plan has validity of 1 day per RM1, for RM10 topup and upwards

Hotlink 365 is not available on the latest plans either

yes, too confusing.. that how Maxis making billions

to check your plan, try *100#, option 8, then option 5

for the topup validty on the newest hotlink plan, try here.

i m gonna convert to digi prepaid as soon as i finish exam .

digi cna have 1year validity with rm30 right based on what you post above ?

i m just want to retain this nice number

yes, DiGi still give one-year validity for RM30

only for the Best prepaid plan
