What about Celcom 4G on Note 3? Based on the website, The Celcom 4G LTE service is currently only accessible using the USB Modem, while service via smartphones and tablets will be available soon. Is this true?

QUOTE(fruitie @ Sep 29 2013, 10:38 PM) Throttle speed only, without extra charges. That's good to hear .. Maxis is infamous for their bill shocks . well maybe it's history now but that's why I've been avoiding Maxis all this while .. I think I should give them a try again now Maxis has introduced this since 30th December 2012.   Main reason is of course they have LTE while Digi is still ...........  |

QUOTE(GymBoi @ Sep 29 2013, 10:37 PM) Hmm ... have been a long time fan of Digi .. never had problem with them and I liked their cheap plan ... Now planning to get this Note 3 and checked the plans again ... looks like Maxis is better ...especially dunno since when Digi started to introduce that 1+1GB crap .. yes yes i'm also a past DiGi user here, many note3 is also from DiGi, been using DiGi all the while, whole family using but that 1+1 or 2+2GB crap is seriously stupid, and maxis giving out 5GB for RM75 althought the call and sms rate is a bit higher la, so i took it anyways, DiGi signal/connection these days not very good la.Anyway for maxis ... if I take SurfMore 50 , what happens if the quota reach 2GB? Extra charge or throttle speed ? Anyone experience bill shocks especially with data roaming anymore ? Always hear scary stories about maxis charging few k during overseas ... i personally do travel a fair bit for my work ... anyway to permanently disable data roaming from maxis side ? and as fruitie mentioned will throttle, no more bill shock |

Wow so you also changed from Digi to Maxis because of this phone ? and as fruitie mentioned will throttle, no more bill shock  I wonder if there's anyone here still with Digi ? Any reason why you're sticking with Digi ? I can't seem to see any + points for digi anymore ... maybe only the cheaper call rates .. |

I can't seem to see any + points for digi anymore ... maybe only the cheaper call rates ..But anyway, I have SIM cards from all telcos.  Just that I'm using DiGi with my Note 3. |

Postpaid Celcom for Personal package can activate the LTE services but u need to go to Menara Celcom or Blue Cube (if i'm not mistaken) which is next to Sunway Pyramid. For corporate package (like i'm using now) , unfortunately not allowed to subscribe. Their reason, the LTE services still not stable and they still doing testing with corporate package b4 roll out to the public. Sounds stupid right?
