Any digi users having problem with data connection today?

I'm in KL btw. Had H signal dropping frequently all the way from klang and even now near KL sentral

Near KL Sentral, which is surprising. My "H" drops to "3G" quite abit, and when on "3G" it doesn't move. On S2 here btw.

Hmm then probably it's just my problem

Hmm don't know if it's related, but I had this plan since few years back,so I technically still have the bb service on my line (though I don't use it)

Let me start by saying I'm a DIGI Smart plan user

Having said that, Maxis just released new internet plans with no call commitments. Considering the slight extra only, it's pretty tempting to hop over now, considering they have way better coverage.

Digi better respond soon

It's Internet Value Plan.

For ppl who you know, use the internets instead of SMS. (SMS is real occasional for me, 5 sen / 15 sen won't make a huge impact)

And it's 5 sen to maxis. Digi SMART plan is 10 to any operator. Averaging it out assuming you have friends on both networks, cost will be the same

Well yeah, that's from your ideology perspective on what telcos need to shift their focus to.

Nevertheless, as it stands, digi needs to amend rates or the Maxis plans are definitely more attractive, for internet users. (plan is catered to such users anyways).

Considering to hop over this weekend actually

Yeah I'm aware. 1.5GB is plenty though on a mobile device, but if I go for the 3.5GB one definitely no problems there

But digi caps your speed down to 5kbps, which is quite frankly, just ridiculous

Ah that's the one with the speed capped right?

Yeah guess it works, but not my cup of tea. Not a fan of slower speeds and carrying dummy phone around

Well yeah, for regular forum browsing it's fine.

And that's the problem. If you're in good area. My job puts me at different clients at different times, and I've had such random coverage. Even when travelling in KL area from one place to another, line cuts off alot in certain areas.
Not to mention recently they're upgrading works are not helping make ppl happy.

I've used digi for many many years (more than 10 now), and you pay for what you get. But with Maxis' new plan, the pricing is similar, which is not right. Digi's poorer coverage (ignoring even speed) is meant to be offset with the cheaper price.

And yes, the Internet Lite plan can work for you, but we need to compare apples with apples. Direct competitor is SMART plan 48/68.
Extra 2 bucks (or same price if contract 12 months) is more than worth it for the significantly better coverage (and this is ignoring the extra space and extra capacity).

A little more steep on the 75 bucks one (7 bucks difference), but the 7 bucks is justified via 500 extra MBs and significantly better speeds and better coverage.

I've been loyal to Digi and supported them, but this is very frustrating. Don't see them responding also (I've been told Maxis' plan has been out for a week or so)

Yeah, that's my problem with them. They're no longer that company of the past. And they've gotta figure that and react to market as well.

Guess we'll have to see how things go. But as of now, there's a definite pricing disparity

Haha I was on prepaid Digi prior to being on postpaid actually

Digi's response, finally

Unfortunately, one needs to sign up contract for this. Not applicable with phone bundle somemore I think. Sighness
