Not having any problems as you guys. Consistantly receiving umobile's full bars in signal strength at prai area.

Yeah when i mnp from digi last 2 weeks, it took me 4 days to get it done at umobile's queensbaymall. Super friendly customer service ..

Prai was out for about an hour but recovered back around 5pm. It seems they are upgrading their networks nationwide. Yeah..it could be due to the 3g tower sharing with maxis...i do hope so.

I remembered that celcom also crashed their network nationwide during hari raya a few years ago. Anyone here still recall that ? That incident was even worse la ...on the eve of hari raya some more.... plus celcom have been around since 1992 ...

I'd say give some time to umobile to improve their services....else you could always have the choice of porting out to other telco companies if you're unwilling to stomach any downtime at all. Chill out bro ..

Great news !

Taken from their Facebook entry here http://www.facebook.com/umobilesb

U Mobile would like to sincerely apologize for the service disruption you experienced on Monday, 31 October.

As shared on our Facebook page later that evening, this outage was caused by an unexpected glitch during the upgrading of our high speed network. While the service is back to normal, we would like to express our sincere apology, by giving FREE SMS all day to all operators in Malaysia on 10 November 2011, 10 December 2011 and 10 January 2012. In addition, if you are a monthly data package user, you will receive additional FREE 500MB monthly starting from 10 Nov 2011 to end of Jan 2012.

We know that this does not compensate for the inconvenience caused by service disruption but we do hope it will go some way to rebuild your trust in U Mobile. As we have always stated, you always come first.[

I also got no idea why ...but in my area the network was down for only one hour.

Anyway, it's still a nice compensation by them which i doubt none of our local telcos offered when their network is down.

Damn fast la...i'm in prai and on prepaid 28, average 4mb downloads...damn fast loo

Not tested with any hspa+ modem as i don't have one..

Hi .. i know this might be a little bit out of topic but still i am hoping digilife or other umobile staff here might be able to share some light .

I am currently subscribing to umobile's prepaid . I now wish to takeup umobile's postpaid plan under U88.

Can i maintain my current number ?

Thanks bro.

Confirm already..i had full bars of hsdpa from bagan serai to taiping this morning all the time while under roaming.
Something good to cheer...as the cheapest is now also have the widest hsdpa + network.
