An Officer from 123 just called me to inform about this new service to help user check their data usage and options to add data with less expensive rate. You can now buy additional 1GB at RM10 for 3 days and 1.5GB at RM25 for a week. This is better than RM2 for an hour and RM8 Daily from previous service. You can create a new contact for this number without having to remember or dial again. THE NUMBER *136*9#  If your iphone always on data (YM, FB, Tweeter, Youtube) i suggest you check your data regularly (option 3) and add when needed the RM10 per GB is a good choice (option 1) . Cheaper than any other data from Ivalue package in my opinion. This post has been edited by chokia: Sep 22 2011, 02:35 PM

Yes, Maxis charges RM5 per Mb so roughly it is RM5000+ per GB so better take this only at RM10 per Gb
This is why i think this is good at least for me:-
I use iValue 1 (obviously u can see the photo i posted) and for the past couple of days since my bill cycle date of 14th everymoth i hv used half a GB. (500MB+)
The next few days i will hit 1GB data fr Ivalue 1 package, maxis will send me sms notify twice that i have used 80% and 100%.
Once i received this and if i didnt do anything my data will be charged at RM5 per MB and supposedly until my next billl cycle i will definitely kena RM10000+ but NO, why? becoz my limit only RM200, once reached this limit (usually at RM250+) my line will be cut off until i make payment.
Now with this new service, i can buy more GB at RM10 per GB and use it for 3 days or less. and add again after 3 days until i reach my billing cycle.
So lets say i added 1GB X 5 times until my next cycle, i only pay extra RM50
My iValue1 now gives me 6GB data for only RM150
[Total = ivalue1 RM100 + top up RM50 = RM150 for (6GB incl 1Gb fr iV1)]
