Not sure maybe the word primier?

lol..same shit, not activated yet..

Looks like there's some teething issues with Celcom eh? I just wish they have EPP though..

I've tried all the 3 giants.. so far I think celcom is an okay provider. Just their iPhone plans make me a bit furious

what took yours so long? i just bought mine today morning and at 11am everything kawtim.

i also dunno why take so long for my activation......so bad le

line activated after 43hours

have you chase that celcom fella, the one who sold you iphone? keep calling the branch and ask them to check it for u? activation by right should not take that long.

can you give me reason why the celcom would be the best, and not maxis. digi is the worst as far as i know even though their postpaid plan is kinda irresistible

i am not sure to say celcom is the best or not.

my experience is celcom have the best coverage. and this is for their GSM. as for their broadband, they improve much.

i used to subscribe to their broadband back in 2009, then it really sucks i keep complaining to them, and even to MCMC. at the end i just ended up the contract. i never tried maxis.

then in the year 2010, i got galaxy tab 10.1 as birthday gift from friend. and it comes with celcom broadband. i must say their service is better now.

but last week i close the account, because today i took iphone 5 package from celcom.

i am sure maxis is good too, judging from the feedback, and digi i know have the worst coverage.

i called this evening..they told me tomorrow should have activate..i told them if 2morrow my line still not active..i will walk in their branch and shout there..

you should do that. it doesnt make any sense for activation to take such a very long time.

make sure to shout at the manager.

My dad plans to get the iP5. Not too sure weather to get celcom plan or just buy outright from Apple, his current celcom bill usually around 300-400 a month.. (blackberry)

Soo. U guys recommend to take celcom plan or buy from apple?

My iP 5 plan still not activated since Friday. Haizz am I just the unlucky one? Went to Bluecube and called celcom careline several times...

Okay =\= best

Of course each telcos got different problems but so far for my needs of data and coverage is pretty much met my expectation from celcom but their cs still needs alot of improvement.

When I was on digi I had to postion my head in a way special way just to talk to someone!! But it was easy to disconnect calls, just move head another position and call gets disconnected!!

Maxis, well I remember my billing nightmare OMG. From then onwards lesson learnt every telco plan I sign up check the credit limit allocated to me. Haha

I took the celcom broadband around 2010. I find the speed is so so only. It was the dongle USB stick type.

Now, thinking is it worth to take the data plan compared with maxis. Am just a light user but will use wifi for most surfing. What are ur thoughts on this?

line activated this am, but no data connection....

as today morning..ip5 show no service agter woke up....is time to walk in branch and make some fire pouder there.

At least you already have a connection

Apparently mine was tagged wrongly to my another Celcom line. Now they lodged a report and that need to be rectified.

very stupid celcom, activate my line and didnt activate my data, some more the CS ask me did i subscribe to data plan despite i told her i'm on new ip plan.... =.=

is ur daddy using bbm and enterprise server? better dun get iphone.
surely rage.

if die die want, get a plan.

Got my iphone 5 last Friday at 12:30 am and line still not activated. I know this activation problem will be repeated like last year so I cut the existing sim to nano size. Still using the old sim card.

my wife line ok jek. bought ipong on friday 7pm. line activated on sunday 1pm. faster than they said.. should be on monday.

Alot celcom user complaining about the simcard not activated on time, I suggest you guys call the center and ask ..

wa....wat happen dude....

iv celcom account orady.....how to get the iphone....in my case, using celcom plan

mine, bought on 14 nov morning around 10am....at 1pm...can make a call, sms, whatapps, browse..etc...

prepaid convert to postpaid....overall almost 3hours to complete all exercise..done

just bought the phone only without plan yesterday at Sunway cube for RM2199 Yeah~~

that was indeed fast.

outright? got stocks still?

dude..i dont think celcom sell outright...any proof ?

any1 here know how to check celcom data usage?

like maxis, u can use *136*9# data usage of the month
is celcom provide any kind of this service?

What I did was.. I send sms and type VOL STATUS send to 22188. Then you will received sms broadband allocation.

haha, that highlighted words made my day LOL

anyway, maxis from now has changed, 1GB data onwards no more bill shock LOL. anyway just wanna ask, for celcom, the speed is limited to max 7.2MBps right? and did you use any vpn (to get the unlimited data trick)

thanks

celcom already hv DC-HSDPA at 42mb/s

Even though Celcom already have 42Mbps, why I never see any improvement in my network speedtest? It always shows max 7.2Mbps only (4-6.7Mbps). Or is it only applicable for broadband use with specific modem?!

subang parade cube all sold out as of yesterday, but dont know about sunway

sure man i got the resit. whats your number i whatsapp you the picture. dont know how to upload picture using iphone hehehe

Not enterprise... Normal one, but then he said most of friends have gotten iphone and android already.. So rarely bbm now.. So u recommend get plan?

bare in mind that MBps & Mbps is not the same. MB = MegaByte, while Mb = Megabit. 1Byte = 8bit.

I think he mention about Mbps...maybe he confuse LOL

http://www.malaysianwireless.com/2012/06/c...-axiata-42mbps/

many thanks. just tried, it replied:
"Remaining Balance: 3000MB"

so.... accurate? lol
hope it's 0 charge sms fees

sunway blue cube (dealer) 1t 1st floor , they do sell outright IP5 and not allowed for contract..

sunway iconic blue cube, they open for pre-book only...

anyone know which celcom blue cube got stock for IP5 and for contratc

okey , I can also report after casually asking the counter girl while paying my friends internet bill. Celcom
indeed sell outright. 2199. Blue Cube The Spring.

Of course

no I didn't try any of those so far, because I rarely exceed my data limit since I have fiber at home

i still prefer idigi plan

Well, each to their own. Some do love Celcom's better coverage, especially its wide DC-HSDPA.

For plans pricing, of course Digi wins hands down. But contract tenure on the other hand is a bit

This post has been edited by LaskarCinta: Dec 19 2012, 02:33 AM

prove it!

My iP5 plan finally activated yesteday (signed up on Friday). Lucky Zzzz, several calls and 2 visits to Blue Cube.

Lol, wtf the simcard only activated by yesterday? Lol, I thought 48 hours, Celcom

Some hiccups, staff didn't submit the form or change plan didn't get processed promptly. Old Celcom plan remained active till Monday and only migrated to iP5 plan and get new SIM activated on Tuesday. Zzz it took quite some time. Phone was collected on Friday anyhow.

Which bluecube got ready stock? I booked mine at alamanda and they can only get the stock by next monday. What the.... =_=!

need to pay to book?

Got my ip5 and line activated immediately @ menara sunway- jalna semarak.

They got stock for 16gb only.

I found out the service go celcom blue cube or branches is way better than those dealer blue cube. Settle everything in less than 30 mins

new stock arrived (plenty of them) at BC Setiawalk puchong..

you consider lucky , mine still pending ,

total call to Celcom careline : 3 times , 2 CS kena f from me

visit sunway iconic bluecube = 0 time

Call Sunway Iconic = 4 times = Person in charge kena f by me 9 9 , until he drive all the way to my office and pass me the new nano sim card , due to they give me wrong sim card which unable to register.

till now, line still not active yet..

Thanks for the heads-up.
Rushed over and picked up the last black 32GB.

When I left, think they still had stocks of 16GB.

Does anyone know how to check when my contract will end with celcom??try to check on their online customer service but didnt find it..anyone know??

urgent..

Just call them, dial 1111.

Just got my ip5 activated yesterday. Today celcom already send me a SMS saying I've reached 80% of the allocated data! Anyone know why?

same here, just ignore it. As it is part of the free 50MB in the package, just ignore it..

Just come back from blue cube Kota Kinabalu. But iP5, Sim Active within 15 minutes.... so fast...

By the way, so far you guys been using Celcom.
Is the coverage reception and 3G all consistent and better than Maxis?

However, Celcom customer service is below par and Maxis is excellent!

Nahh,I used Maxis as my iPad broadband, and previously was used Celcom..I feel Maxis better than Celcom

What about the reception and coverage? Voice calls i mean

Opps.. the coverage was good enough but the speed Maxis fastest, others I never try..cause i only use for the internet

Download speeds on my ip5 loses so far out to Maxis on my note2 by average 500-1000kbps. Still acceptable to me
This is in Batu pahat

Hehe my nano sim for ip5 still not active oso since 14/12 but no worries bcoz i have a nano sim from my previous plan i98..got free from celcom.. I really hope they will never active my new iphone plan coz i cannot get free calls within celcom..who da hell la design the celcom first plan

which outlet can prebook? went to mines blue cube, the person there said cannot, must do online...please help

Why need top prebook. If run out of stock, try going to another center ? I got mine yesterday - just walk in Blue Cube ( Batu Pahat) and came out within 20 mins. Plenty of stocks ( 16, 32 and 64gb mainly black) and zero queue

same network? same website access?

Different network - already said ip5 on celcom while note 2 on Maxis
Yes tested on same app (speedtest} same time and tested several times yesterday and today at few places at my place

which outlet still got stock for 32gb? klang valley area.

now line active but data connection failed.

anyone of you can help me to check General-about-carrier celcom is 13.0 or 13.1 ?

mine is 13.0 , maxis on ip5 is 13.1

I am not much lucky than you. I called Careline everyday since last Friday ...

This is quota on free 50mb. To check data usage, send Vol Status to 22188. Hope this helps.

means your line still not active ?

you need walk in to the branch de..one of the funny thing is , they told me my nano sim is valid for east malaysia , one of the supervisor drive all tehe way to my pj office and give me another nano sim...

and funny thing is till yesterday i was at outstation , the supervisor told me my nano sim again need to change ... i call him and give a lucky "F" to him and mention if u can't get my line active by today...i'll walk in and shout at you!!!

Till this evening 715pm, my line is active , but no data connection. mutherfarker @!#$@#!$ Celcom

does anyone know in the summary of monthly statement, will celcom seperate out the 2 plan for example, monthly commitment RM40 & mobile internet plan RM58 or just write celcom first prime plan rm98? i need this detail as i am planning to switch to this plan but this line is currently paid by my company.. if separate, scare later will got noise to listen

My Celcom nano sim was activated and can be used after 5 hours i sign up
Guess must be due to my place few buyers only

Hi everybody!

I am planning to take iphone plan under celcom. And i realize the contract give benefits more compared to buy outright. I also planning to take 2-yrs contract since i can get cheaper price (rm73) for 3gb data as compared to normal data plan (rm98, rm40 + rm58 for 3gb data). However, my concern is on bill shocking like how it happen to maxis. Just to ask, could it happen to celcom? I'm still a student and just afraid it will happen to me


And in your opinion, is it worth to get 2 yrs contract under celcom?

Thanks!

Hi can someone explain to me bout total saving stated for celcom plan rm901,celcom rebate 490(i knew it offered by celcom and will rebate rm25 per month for 20months) .how bout device discount rm411?didnt understand




Attached thumbnail(s)

If ur an existing iphone user from celcom, u can get free nano sim so at least u can use ur ip5 under ur existing plan.. So no need to call and F them everday hehe

Hi people, just a quick check will celcom charge to get a nano sim?

Bro ur case very serious la bro..heehe.. Celcom very crazy la this time

Added on December 22, 2012, 7:25 amExisting customer can get free.. But if cannot get free just pay RM5

This post has been edited by lalala_lalala: Dec 22 2012, 07:25 AM

Celcom will throtte only your data usage if excess the limit, no bill shock like maxis

If u take 2 years contract, you will get extra discount and subsidy about 400 more

Found this under the celcom iPhone 5 Plans terms & condition.

Item no 6.
When customer has fully utilized his Mobile Internet/Data Broadband, system will automatically block his usage and if customer wants to continue, customer can purchase Volume i.e. Fair Usage Policy – Refer to Celcom Mobile Broadband: Fair Usage Policy.

Couldnt find the Fair Usage Policy

No bill shock (due to data plan)= Yes
Seems like Maxis has taken Celcom perk(throttle) & Celcom make the opposite move (but at least they stop the data plan)

This post has been edited by decavalera: Dec 22 2012, 08:14 AM

Nope. Last time I'm subscribing to Celcom Biz, I've called their rep to ask the same question. They said that their new policy since Oct is they'll block the internet altogether when reach quota for most plans.

And that gets pretty ironic since the new Maxis policy since Dec is that they'll no longer bill-shock™ for plans above 1 GB. They'll throttle down the connection speed 3 times.

---

Added on December 22, 2012, 11:35 amWell, that's also the reason why lots of newer Celcom plans do have much juicier quota in the first place.

---

Added on December 22, 2012, 11:46 amI'd recommend you to go with 1 year contract either on Celcom or Maxis.

Divide those to 1 year, the 2-yr contract doesn't provide better value compared to 1-yr. You better off buying a newer iPhone next year and renew your contract then, that'll give you more saving. Plus, in case you're thinking of buying the next iPhone, you need to terminate the contract and pay for steep ETF. For Maxis that can be a bit different, since you can just apply for contract extension.

Personally, I'm thinking of 2-yr contracts as way to save for working people who got its bill paid by their company. Since you're a student, that should be totally out of picture.

---

Added on December 22, 2012, 11:53 amTake example for 16GB model. That means for the device with RRP of RM2199, they're putting a pricetag of RM1788.

Well, don't get jumpy2 yet. You still need to pay the bolded price on the top part of that chart. The advance payment will be used to deduct your monthly bill.
