today when i sitting in back of my house where no u mobile connection, i set my ZTE MF627 modem in auto mode for network, and some how it automatic connect to celcom 2G network, and getting 128kbps steady,. surprise me for sure because i though i suscibe to U68 which cannot roam, but it can roam,.

i dont top up extra credit, i just top up exact amount to activate the U68 only, my apn set = my3g, Modem setting is auto ,.

then the celcom 2G network pop out automatically and auto connect even,..

and very consistent speed on 128kb,..

now all calls from UM to UM in a UM3G area is FOC, yes TRUE FOC 

you can talk and talk till the cows come home and UM wont deduct your credit

     

ok thx it already good for my hp with no 3g..
no money buy 3g phone...

if you flip back the post, no one mention abt this FREE voice UM3G ~ UM3G, actually i only knew it a few days ago and i posted it here, and now you guys tested it worked

care to mention you are on UB package or RM28 package

network will show unstable when it dingdong on roaming, did it happen in a full bar UM3G area?

U're not alone. 
Sometimes I even can't get EDGE connect when roaming,sometimes no problems.Don't know what happen in celcom roaming network.And previously my phone will show a small 'R' when roaming on celcom network,but recently I found that under some Celcom network,the little 'R' disappears. 

I never count how long the connection could be back,actually it will get connection automatically suddenly without any reboot.weird...I think maybe a few cell towers can't handle the data roaming well so that sometimes it may wrongly reject the data roaming request.

I don't think so.I'm using Nexus One and I tried it on Nokia 5800 and iPhone4 to,also having the same issue.I think in KL,the 3G coverage is quite ok and so not so many ppl are complaining on it.

it's all right.Hopefully umobile will do some positive movements after ur complaint.

i notice this too during my trip at penang. It's full bar on 2G network and then a while it show no line at all.
while in 3G area in penang then this doesn't happen at all.
and this happen intermittently..that prevent me to port to umobile..and only using umobile as secondary line.
hmmmm..hope someone wil complain to umobile..

hi guys... i'm seeking an opinion or two regarding U Mobile. Price wise, it looks reasonably priced..  I'm planning to get Voice & Data Plans U Lite (RM68).

I've been a stubborn Digi customer for donkey years.. since 1997 I think. But I have to admit that I'm (finally) calling it a day. The coverage and strength hardly came on par with other telcos. Either I'll lose 3G at certain area (even in my own house at Kinrara it fluctuates!!). Plus Digi is also famous for "zero coverage" in enclosed areas.. sometimes 'no line' in shopping complexes.. .frustrating! imagine no line at certain parts of Pavilion or The Gardens? Its a joke.

So..... main questions. How's the coverage and strength of U Mobile? 3G as well. Hopefully you guys can give me your honest opinion.. and don't tell me to go thru hundreds of pages in this (and other) topic.

Thanks a bunch

Hi.. i'm a little confused. Why are you guys roaming with Celcom? In M'sia? Would there be additional charges?

Thks.

u hav a choice to use your fon as a modem/mifi or just buy a usb modem

i would advice u try out using your fon  as a modem and if the signal is good, buy a usb modem for about rm100+/- (new)

a very good write up

pin this up on the first page TS, thanks

   

uwaa uwaa uwaa... the removed they RM10 100MB 30DAYS package...
i called them and they instruct me to subcribe RM28 UNLIMITED PLAN
i said i dun wan to waste another RM18 coz my monthly average use only 70-80MB via hp...

who want RM10 credit, PM me, i can transfer it to u... just pay RM10 maaa... hahaha...
i wan to throw the sim card into the lombong...

Freaking me when I got my bill recently.  There is suppose rebate from RM 100 paid upfront, but its not there. Crap...what are they trying to do...

You are having problem exactly like what I had. You can check my prevous post and other's reply on that.

1. Well, you need to put on a thick face and call them EVERYDAY until they give the back the normal speed. That's what they want, you just give what they want. They want you to bug them everyday becoz they enjoy listening their customer scolding, they even record your scolding so they can do repeat listening. Welcome to Umobile Club.

2. I am serious about my first suggestion, you need to call them until they give back the normal speed. But your best choice it to get a second SIM card to rotate. PM Digilife for the tips.

3. I find out myself that when your  30 days expire, do not immediately re-subscribe, you will get the trottled speed.  Wait for about two week after expire then you will get the normal speed when you re-subscribe. Weird huh? Welcome to Umobile club.

Those are among those thing you need to expect when you become a Umobile club. member.
P/S: I am really pissed off when writing these. Talk about that later.

UM CSO sucks, I too scolded them abt my quota and its better to use 2 different MB68 sims and let the "first one die naturally" after the 5GB . usually after abt 7 days it will be reset back to "normal" when it expires

Rebate comes 1-2 hours later.

You watch streaming video with 500mb plan? I can't wait to see how long 500 mb last and whether you going to say their price is cheap after that.
