that's why need 2 numbers.
Don't understand why umobile won't give roaming. Can attract more customers right?
that MORE doesn't mean ENOUGH for the extra cost, don't think that u mobile got enough capital to do so much for now.

Maybe U Mobile feel tat most of the customers use very less in prepaid. Imagine customer A in his/her prepaid balance not more than RM30, there is no point U Mobile launched roaming to other country (Except Singapore), am I rite?
Plus U mobile focus in Malaysia and Singapore market, but very curiously why don't open roaming in Brunei and Thailand?

It's very near Malaysia aa~
It still can attract most customers, bcoz of the data plan, it is unlimited neh... Bt once kena quota, the speed will slow down.

Not like DiGi, Celcom or even Maxis, including Tune Talk and XoX XinXun, they straight away "terminate" or charge as "pay per use" once u reach the quota..
I use the U Mobile around 2 years, I'm still waiting for roaming in Brunei there. But seems like U Mobile marketing department don't do improve or launched for this roaming country, very soon I gonna to MNP to XoX XinXun.

It's very attractive MNP to XoX XinXun straight away 28 months account active. I not need every month keep top-up to stay active my account.


better check clearly o, i think they still need some top up within the period one

very simple.
U Mobile's 33% is owned by Singapore Technologies Telemedia (STT) <-- which in turn owned by Temasek Holding.
StarHub, Singapore is part of STT.
so, it's logical that Umobile <-> Starhub enabled the cross-country roaming.
http://www.starhub.com/content/promotions/...eenprepaid.htmlhttp://www.u.com.my/prepaid-packages/prepaid-roamingumobile customers roam to singapore, will latch on to starhub network and its local call rate. vice versa, starhub customers roam to malaysia, will latch on to umobile network and its local rate.
umobile couldnt enable roaming to other countries because of realtime roaming billing & charging system is not available.
why postpaid have roaming? cuz charging is not realtime, and uses different system.
thanks for the sharing,
just for extra information, postpaid do have roaming with just paying RM 300 as deposit
