But, in digilife reply, data roaming only available for prepaid (RM28) users. Who can confirm this?  cry.gif

I seem to be able to use celcom edge on my postpaid when previously the network is sometimes down due to upgrade.

And before using RM28 plan on my prepaid mobile, I used the pay-per-use mobile internet, also can access to umobile2g.

u mobile coverages  in penang is good at Bayan Lepas only,.. georgetown signal is unstable and inconsistent,..

I think for other non Bayan Lepas area, Umobile is still testing.

I have a 3G phone. The Umobile own SOU phone.

Found strong 3G signal in Pulau Tikus

For Dato Kramat near stadium/GH (very weak. Probably the end of Komtar signal).

Notice got signal and can make 3G call if at the Kek Lok Si temple. But no signal if at the temple foot hill. Maybe testing only and with short distance.

Also notice got signal in Fettes Park, but very week. Not sure if it is the end signal from Pulau Tikus.

They have to compete with them ma. I won't be surprised if Digi offer similar package like the RM28/month unlimited internet.

Hi digilife,

I have interested to sign up with UMobile. I have an Android phone, I need a data plan for my phone. My requirements are below:

1) Monthly data usage = 2 - 3 GB
2) Access to internet when travel to Johor, Penang and Perak (2G or 3G speed also can, as long as I can access to internet)

Which plan should I go for it? a or b?

a) U Prepaid Plan (New) + Mobile Internet (MB40)
b) Postpaid Plan (Voice and Data plans - ULite RM68)

Is Data roaming (umobile2G) only available for Prepaid users?

Thanks so much for your advice.

i would advice u take option a)

cost wise = rm28 + rm40 = rm68

meaning u will hav 2 sims, rm28 for calls and surfing( in non UM3G area, as u travel extensively and some areas might not hav UM3G and hence u can roam on celcom 2G data) if u are in a UM3G area, use your MB40 sim to surf and pls topup only require amt to buy the MB40 cause if u topup more than the required amount, UM will "eat up" your credit once u over use the 2GB quota.....
MNP your current sim into Umobile for the rm28/mth and get a buy a new UM sim for the MB40. use the MB40 on a device/fon tat can tether the data onto another device...

Digilife,

I started to see there "UNLIMITED" when searching for the U mobile prepaid broadband packages. You have any idea what is the speed if it is being throttled? 128kbps as well? unsure.gif

Hi digilife,

Why I need 2 sim cards? Let say, I upload RM68 monthly to my RM28 sim card,

I subscribe RM28 + RM40 (MB40) for my RM28 sim card, in total, I will get 0.5GB+2GB = 2.5GB data

Question: Can I use the RM28 sim card to subscribe MB40?

I don't want to carry 2 sim cards or 2 phones cry.gif

Thanks so much again for your help.

That's good because you don't want spams and unnecessary ads coming to your phone.

It's a blessing not to have access to those 3xxxx numbers. You want to sell use those services go do it with Maxis or Celcom.
