Yeah, I counted the Maxis plan too. If you take into account the minutes and SMS given, stuff like that, I think Maxis will STILL be cheaper than the DiGi plan which comes as a suprise. Honestly, I prefer Maxis actually as they have better 3G coverage in my area. Not like DiGi, everywhere EDGE except if you stand in the middle of the fricking city. And the DiGi customer service...=/

Switch to Maxis and save the hassle. Afterall, RM 799 for iP4S is quite reasonable. smile.gif

You think the plan is worth too after calculations?

I actually use Maxis for my main line, iValue2 I think. Very expensive so was thinking of switching to DiGi. But now this thing happen to DiGi, I'm thinking of switching my 2nd line to Maxis instead.

Input much appreciated.

I think quality comes with price. I was a Digi user 2 years back because at that time the price is really cheap for calls and SMS but switched to Maxis after getting poor signal and consistent call drop from Digi. Switched to Maxis, pay a bit more to get piece of mind. By the way, Digi is only cheaper if most of your friends are using Digi. Maxis is cheaper if your friends or clients are using Maxis. smile.gif

True also. DiGi to me is spotty at most in terms of service, if only they spent their revenue more on increasing quality and coverage instead of hiring those moronic yellow people or whatever.

I was looking for something along the lines of iDiGi88, something with a low commitment considering it's a 2nd line and allows me to buy a new phone hopefully with some subsidy. 2 birds with one stone sort of. Now busily recalculating my options.

Oh, just saw you mentioned second line.
Well, Digi could be a good choice. Umobile also okay but only good around Klang Valley and major cities only.

uMobile yet to have presence here I think. As for Digi, definitely not this plan. Lost my goodwill for them after this bait and switch scam.

kuching to be exact. haven't heard of many using umobile. they're not well known in postpaid market I assume?

Oh, then I am not sure. I know Umobile is only good at West Malaysia major cities, Klang Valley, Johor, Ipoh and Penang, etc..

For this plan, I wonder why not just take iValue 1  hmm.gif

Phone under iValue 1 is more expensive.

Try before their line( DIGI) when I fed up of two days of FB and Twitter SMS Update downtime last year December, their line is okay but when I go Amcorp Mall,Petaling Jaya, their  3G signal not good.... but when I use Maxis, Maxis line smooth,... only slight problem...

but I dunno abt other place.. icon_question.gif  hmm.gif  sad.gif

That is the downside of Digi, poor network coverage on some key areas including KLCC. I rather pay more for better network smile.gif

But of course, Maxis also got its downside. But their support via twitter is very fast. thumbup.gif
