Dear all iPad users,

Sorry if I had created a topic at the wrong place, but I am preparing a Christmas/New Year gift for my aunt, she is staying in those kampung kampung side (Serdang, Kedah), but I do not know what service provider package is the best selection to pick. This is because the other day one of my cousins was using Digi line but there seems to be no coverage at all, I am afraid I will select the wrong package and waste the monthly line commitment.

So could someone please recommend what package and what service provider to choose from?

She usually do not use much just checking mail and reading the news, I think 1 gig should be more than sufficient for her. The problem is just the variety of packages with best coverage which is in the market which suits her best.

Thank you in advance... thank you very very much

I suggest u celcom. The best telco coverage.

my advise would be buy the wifi model only. As for telco, sign up one which have strongest coverage at your area. then use tethering hotspot from phone to mini....best value of money gain....

i also apply the same method.

If your aunt use the iPad almost 24 hours in the home only, save the $$ and get the iPad with Wifi only will do

If still want go for cellular, i would suggest you to go for either Maxis or Celcom

I use u mobile plan, great plan for broadband, i rarely use wifi at home. Coverage seems good since i travel much from KL JB and Malacca. Good speed and coverage indeed with affordable plan to choose start from RM18

Get prepaid for maxis and celcom.
Test it out before buying.

try skmm one..

maxis skmm only 700mb...

Shld be enuff unless ur aunty is torrent kaki r youtube fan.

Maxis surfmore pretty good

now already change to 1gb / month
monthly fees only RM 25

Where to get the maxis skmm? does it have the nano sim for ipad mini?

I have Celcom broadband on my iPad, digi and maxis on my 2 other phones, so whenever Celcom enters EDGE and Maxis/DiGi still has 3G, I will use wifi hotspot

search surmore 50 (2G) or surmore 70 (5G) and yes you can apply together with sim card.

Celcom + SKMM sim card = OHSEM~

I use umobile prepaid, RM28 for Internet + calls + SMS. But when I balik kampung it switches to maxis and refuses to go online.
