I registered for digi discover day on july. the cs girl said, no contract and can terminate anytime. but need to pay RM50 upfront which will be use to deduct my bill EVERY MONTHS.

so what can you understand from that? if my bill is RM30 per month than it will deduct it for 1+ months. RM30 for first month and RM20 for second month. right?

WRONG!

your RM50 will be use to deduct your bill over 5 months. on your first bill, you will be charge for OTHER CREDIT AND CHARGES for RM47. which RM10 is for stamp duty and maybe another RM34 top be carry over for the next 5 months.

first, this is postpaid not prepaid, they can collect deposit, but not advance payment like prepaid. as i assume my advance payment will be used within 2 months, I really don't mind at that time.

so they not only collect advance payment for nothing, but they use it as leverage to make you stay with them for 6 months.

beware.

i can terminate now, but they already charge my credit card for that mystery RM37 since i opt for auto payment. as i said, it's "hidden contract". terminate and might lost RM37.

no, i didn't read anything. i just asked if i can terminate at any time and she said can because the line has no contract.  she said the RM50 will be use to pay my bill. she didn't say it will be use to pay for the next 6 or 12 or 13 months.  this all seem to be correct, the RM50 was used to pay my bill. it's all used up in the first bill because my first bill is more than RM50 after the mysterious RM37 charge.

the issue are:
1. i was told there is no contract and can terminate anytime. that is the keyword. she should tell me i will lost my advance payment if i terminate within 6/12/13 months. she failed to mention that. i wasn't told about the RM10/month x 5 months deal.
2. i was charged unexplained RM37 in first bill
