Hi guys,

I have just ported into U Mobile yesterday and currently there is the CNY promo 8% extra credit which ends today and also I will get 15% extra credit per single top up for 6 months.

Does it mean that I can only top up once in each the following denomination RM30, RM50 and RM100? Or will be as long as I top up .. I will get the extra credits ?

So far it is ok .. unfortunately even though the H+ sign is present .. I am getting no internet connection errors on webpages in my office in Jalan Pahang. I subscribed to the UMI48 plan.

free calls from ANY purchased plans will be utilized first.

the free calls that comes pre-bundled in the new prepaid plan will always be utilized last, lowest priority. you didnt pay for it since it was given complimentary with the prepaid.

why behaving such? cuz they want to finish off whatever that you bought (e.g. UMI), so that you need to buy UMI again!

Thanks for the clarification .... I think the UMI48 will be just fine for me ... I switched over from SurfMore75 Maxis and my bill inclusive of phone calls/sms would be 100 plus. Now with UMI48 free calls when I top up and the bundled sms and voice calls to all networks .. really help me to watch my spending ... this is the first time I am trying out prepaid .. was a faithful post paid customers all these years.

I saved a contact : *118*3*1*3# so that I can dial it to check my UMI usage smile.gif

better choice, eh smile.gif

i still cannot convince myself to consider maxis, at all. it's too expensive, compared to other telcos.

i'm now at postpaid u28 with umobile, and my monthly bill hardly go over rm30  doh.gif

i just need the 1GB data exclusively; voice/sms is not important for me. i like voice/sms PAYU rate, meaning if i call more, i pay more. simple logic. if i dont use at all, at least i'm paying RM28/mo for 1GB data. dont think other telco has such low price for 1GB quota (easy peasy maintenance is a plus, hate those stupiak conditions).

being postpaid, i dont have to worry about topping up, watch my validity period.

i dont get promos/benefits that are offered with umobile prepaid, since there will always be T&Cs tied to it, and i couldnt be bothered much analyzing each single details  whistling.gif

i'm definitely NOT their prepaid target customers LOL! and they cant milk more money from me either!

Hehe .. cybpsych ... well written buddy.

I am trying out the 2 gb data (UMI48) ... if I don't exceed .. I will try 1gb (UMI28/38).... and if all goes well .. I might even switch over to post paid. Most of the time .. I am connected to my wifi at home and sometimes at work. Mostly need the data for whatsapp, line, waze and skype. Heavy usage only when I am outstation and have to tether my phone to the laptop/tablet.

Anyway there is a 6% tax for the post paid right ?

yeah, i also mostly connected with wifi at home and majority is at workplace biggrin.gif

yep, 6% tax must be imposed for postpaid.

U28 Postpaid + 6% (RM1.68) tax = RM29.68 hehe still <RM30  thumbup.gif
oh btw, soon, all prepaid vouchers will face the dreaded 6% GST, again, for real this time. telcos cannot run away now since GST has been set for effective date of 1 April 2015.

Darn!!! I guess I would need to switch back to post paid sooner or later tongue.gif

Thanks for the heads up.

Will consider ... however I would most probably apply for auto debit so that I am not late for my bill payment tongue.gif
