Yes.. I at Kuching.. Using Celcom signal, on EDGE speed.. So far so good. I'm just using it for mobile phone purpose only.

I must say it is the cheapest mobile internet plan around in the market, bundle with voice minutes and sms.

Feedback for digilife: he helped me to MNP to UM, responsible seller/dealer! thumbs up for him

u can easily get top up from supermarkets, petrol station, 7-11 that displays e-pay logo..




I got the USB modem from them. It is true that this promo is here, but it is based on first come first serve basis. You need to look into the detail T&C by downloading the pdf file from M2U

i got the modem by reloading rm100 via m2u

it happened that at 8am i open m2u website, i saw the advertisement of this promotion. So i quickly reload rm100 since I bet not much U mobile prepaid user open M2U website early in the morning.. and I GOT it...

its 7.2mbps... 42mbps one very expensive la, not likely they will put it out as free gifts

500mb is more than enough for fb, twitter, whatsapp and occasion VoIP.. just make sure no youtube la...

hopefully the mobile internet promotion still be continued. Just afraid that they will withdrawn or increase the price of the package once they gt enuf customer base.

Actually most ppl go for um now because of two reasons, first one for the mobile internet package which bundle with voice and sms, second one is going for the free call.

However, just to share here that for those who subscribe to mobile internet, the free call promotion actually does not benefit much for them as the call usage will be deducted from the 100mins first.

definitely rm28 package won't work on roaming..


i might suggest u look for SG based prepaid internet to avoid roaming charges.

read the T&C carefully. they mentioned that its 200 on first come first serve basis. i'm nt sure still gt free modem or not.

i havent got the modem yet. i thk they will send only after the event ends

Anyone here using HTC on U mobile internet package? My HTC desire hd got problem to surf internet on browser (default browser, opera, dolphine, etc..) but can use whatsapp normally.. Internet setting is set according to u mobile website d.. anyone experience the same? advice needed

already done a factory reset. problem still persist.. can log in facebook, but cant refresh facebook newsfeed

I'm currently roaming on celcom2g network. My location at Sarawak.

I did exactly what u did. Can use to surf internet using browser, but very slow (slow compare to when I put the same simcard into Nokia phone to surf using using U Mobile Internet APN). And also, can't connect to whatsapp and facebook.

Added on July 30, 2011, 7:12 pmHow to set the setting to celcom mms? By default the MNC code is 18, I can't change to 19. Below are the setting I used but still failed to connect.

Phone: HTC Desire HD (android)
Network: roaming on Celcom (umobile2g visible in this list of networks, but I can't choose umobile2g, if I try to choose umobile2g, error msg returned was "you have no access to this network")
Internet Plan: U Mobile unlimited internet

Called up u mobile customer service @ 1318, they confirmed that the ordinary U Mobile setting is correct.

Name : U Mobile Internet
APN : my3g
MCC : 502
MNC : 18

APN : my3g
Proxy: 10.30.5.11
Port: 8080
MCC : 502
MNC : 18
APN type : default (should be httpproxy, but in order for me to surf internet, I changed this to default)
By using this setting , I can surf using browser, but the speed is significantly slower (slower than the ordinary GPRS speed). Also, I can't use whastapp or facebook application if I use this APN setting


Name : Celcom 2G Internet
APN : celcom.net.my
MCC : 502
MNC : 18 (supposed to be 19, but I can't change this)
APN type : default

Actually the current rate RM28 with 500MB, 100 mins and 30 sms is the cheapest already. Although it might not suits individual needs as some ppl prefer more sms, some prefer more talktime, while some just need a data plan.

Don't ask for more value from it, now the problem is I doubt whether this promo will continue for how long. One thing for sure is when the customer base increases, U Mobile would certainly revise this unlimited mobile internet package. Pls be informed that when number of users increases, their network capability will soon unable to cope and they might do something to control the usage (U mobile is providing data roaming on celcom as well, this adds more salt to the pain if celcom is charging U Mobile more for data roaming usage).

Just recalled back, when DiGi emerged as a new player in the telecomunication companys, it offers great deal. As time passes, with more and more customeres, one can see how DiGi changes, with the increase in subscription rate, implementation of freebies account, various revised rate to increase the call/sms rate, etc....

Also according to the T&C of U mobile unlimited mobile internet, "This plan is available until withdrawn by us" http://u.com.my/prepaid-packages/unlimited...le-internet#tnc

Now what I hope is, U Mobile pls maintain this rm28 package..

digilife, btw do u know maximum how much UM prepaid can be registered under 1 IC?

At some area of Johor.. You can check by U Mobile website for its coverage, it labels its coverage with different colours for different speeds

I will suggest you to file a complaint to SKMM. This makes the telco works more efficiently!

http://www.skmm.gov.my/

Before commenting further, I would suggest to read the terms and condition thoroughly first.

http://u.com.my/prepaid-packages/topup-for-grabs --> Terms and conditions

3. A total of two hundred (200) USB modems to be given away throughout the Contest Period. The first 200 Reload in Ringgit Malaysia One Hundred (RM100.00) denomination will entitle the subscribers one (1) USB modem.


Hence, very likely that all the USB modems were given away already. Only 200 available to grab, from 6th June 2011 onwards. Now it is mid August, very LIKELY that no more USB modem already.

You can't just calculate the data usage by just multiplying the data with 5 cents. Do note that when calculating the charges, it involves data usage per session

This means that in one connection session, if you use up 10kb, you will be charged rm0.05. Similarly in one session, 100kb is used, the charge would be rm0.05. When 1.01MB is used, charges would be RM0.10.

More often, we can't have one single connection session that lasts up to 30 days! Connection session would be terminated when: for example; changing from 3g to 2g coverage, turn off and on phone, moving to place without coverage (carpark, high rise building), turning off internet applications on your phone, so on and so forth.

Therefore, I think it is not practically if we just compare the pay as you use rate in this manner.

Got my modem from U Mobile d

You need to go to both maybank2u.com.my and u.com.my to read about the contest carefully

I believe it is due to the automatic changing from 2g to 3g network in your area which results in this problem. To solve this, simply force your phone to use 2G network only by selecting "GPRS/EDGE" instead of using "automatic" setting, (I assume that 2G signal is stronger than 3G signal in puchong area.)
