Wooohoooo! Let me start off by saying.. I just called Maxis CS less than a minute ago regarding the 30gb cap and they said this is supposed to be imposed since November 2012. That said, if we do actually exceed it, for legacy 99 users will still maintain their uncapped speed (not sure how true this is), but the notification of the 30gb will still be there and also in most cases, all plans are unlimited now with their new policy.. Whether or not our speeds will be capped, will truly need someone to test this out. I know for sure, my parents would help me bust my 30gb in no time.. cuz today alone, they have watched 3gb away on PPS.... If I DO exceed the quota, I will update you guys whether my speed has been throttled down.

QUOTE(erickyoko @ Jan 9 2013, 09:24 PM) I just bought 2 from ddr3 2 days ago,now they implemented the 30gb...so suay...between that,what is 'legacy' plan?im new here....hehe Legacy plan is/was a plan offered by Maxis previously (I subscribed mine in 2007-2008) which was for unlimited data. It was before they implemented FUP and later omitted the plan from their charts. For those existing subscribers, Maxis were to honor them by letting them keep their RM99 plans while newer users are subjected to the FUP based plans.

QUOTE(blacktubi @ Jan 9 2013, 09:38 PM) mel5582 Did you enquire about LTE? Haha bro you read my mind. Yes I checked with them regarding LTE but it's only offered for new Maxis broadband signups. They are not sure if the SIM cards they're issuing out is compatible with our modems (in most cases, it will be haha) and their LTE is currently not compatible with phones. I did bring up that if I were to use one of my multi-SIMs with a compatible LTE modem, will I be eligible.. unfortunately we cannot upgrade. Likewise stated, typical Maxis strategy.. if you wish to use their new LTE package, you will need to terminate your existing broadband package, and signup a new LTE broadband plan. So, hopefully.. Maxis could implement LTE with voice quick, so that it's compatible with our phones. That way, maybe we could opt for an upgrade? Due to the fact that our unlimited plan is actually tied to Maxis 3G, not WBB.. Maxis LTE is so far only offered as WBB.. This post has been edited by mel5582: Jan 9 2013, 09:59 PM

Oops, edited my earlier post.. yeah.. chuahcs is right. The reason why I didn't mention about LTE because it's not relevant to our thread. That aside, I would not forego my existing plan for LTE at the moment.. need more confirmation regarding what I signed up for (in this case, the legacy plan).. gonna see if I can bust it and get throttled or not haha..

QUOTE(chuahcs79 @ Jan 9 2013, 10:04 PM) speed is not really main thing,.. if FUP kick in with LTE upgrade = what's the point ? like many in the past have mentiion, Ferrari with Fuel limit,.. how to run ?  Very true, but I was thinking in the lines of.. activating LTE with a fee, on an existing plan. More like a top-up.. haha But I guess in most cases, this is not an option. Unless, can find an inside guy to do it for you

Hey guys, try to check your quota limit now and see.. seems like Maxis is having some technical difficulties at the moment.
Edit: Nvm that, now can again..

If indeed legacy users also affected, really need to escalate the issue.. My total used data is around 7gb so far..

QUOTE(lwk523 @ Jan 10 2013, 05:29 PM) Ya, No choice lolx.. Only you can understand my situation Updated: legacy acc... 30GB is sharing with all multi users and after 30GB ,,, 5kb/sec only  The end of maxis and I need back to wimax P1  Have you tried calling to Maxis to clarify on this? Likewise, they said legacy users should not be capped / throttled down after the limit is breached.

QUOTE(fruitie @ Jan 10 2013, 07:31 PM) Seriously I really have doubt on their CS' words though I still hope this time he/she is correct. Anyway, just let's see how it flows. Why don't you finish off yours and call to enquire if *tocuh wood* being capped?  Trying to lol.. but today I've been stuck the whole day with meetings and it seems my data is still hovering around the 6.7gb mark. Will see if there's anything I can download later..
