Hi eikozai,
I was told that uMobile are riding on Celcom coverage and has coverage most places. Not sure how true this is. I dont Unifi at home, still with Streamyx and it is still slow sometimes so uMobile is a good alternative for me because I dont really use 3G much, except when I take my iPad with me when travelling.
I will definitely check out uMobile store.
You are right, i was told by the CS that uMobile doesn't have their own base, so need to ride on other company's platform. But in Klang Valley, u can see on ur ipad it'll show uMobile 3G, and it roam to Celcom 3G when uMobile 3G have no coverage. Celcom is good when go out from Klang Valley, while uMobile stram extremely well within Klang Valley. So this is my best choice for ipad dataplan. Personally choosen postpaid because seldom use doesn't mean not using at all. Me myself dun want all the trouble when wanna go online, have to drive all the way to a specific store to purcahse the card, or etc etc, lots of factor, prefer on-the-go type. uMobile postpaid was slightly cheaper than DiGi if u do the calculation, rm28/month + 6% = RM29.68 for 30 days(they told me 1 month = 30days), almost same like DiGi prepaid RM1/day plan which also will continously deduct ur credit everyday no matter u using or not. RM1/day was only applicable IF ONLY you topped up RM100, RM30, RM50 don't count with this rate
uMobile plan no contract, can terminate anytime
I'm not bias, but just sharing my personaly opnion and experience. You can do the survey around first, or try and throw sim card like me
