As far as I recall from when I first subscribed, it does stack though there must be some limit.

However, because there is the rule that you have to top up minimum RM30 in the first 6 months of the 365 days term, then I do not recommend topping up RM100 beforehand.

#hotlink is the only plan right now for new activations and port-in. I am trying to persuade Maxis to add an alternative prepaid plan that's optimized for call and SMS, and has lifetime validity.

Thanks for the update, that's useful info. Till now, I only knew that Validity90 had no topup requirement.

migrate to #hotlink plan is one-way street currently

if maxis changed this in the future, it would likely only allow allow migration to a newer plan that lacks the 365 option

as I know, all these extended validity options were introduced by the telcos under pressure from skmm

however, the signs are that the telcos are slowly pulling the plug on long life plans.. as they introduces new plans without it and with even shorter grace periods, such as 50, 60 and 75 days instead of the original standard 90 days

I also sensed some gentle hints from CS replies in Maxis Forum that the 365 days option may not be available from Hotlink in the future

anyway, we shall see what happens

HYC rates are good, what makes you want to switch to #hotlink where you will have to keep topping up to stay active?

"ACTIV10 is now also available to #Hotlink"

Yes, Maxis made this change in response to user feedback.

However, don't expect Validity 365 - no telco is going to give you "free" internet for 9 sen per day.

You can ask Maxis for older prepaid plan instead of #hotlink, but you do have to ask. Best to drop in Maxis Centre.

yes, except if you buy a pass while active you can continue using the pass till expiry, even when that's after your credit expiry date.

can

yes, must be active when subscribe.. and I don't imagine the monthly internet would auto renew if inactive.

The Hotlink 1GB/RM30 option is speed-capped after quota - no extra charges.

If credit balance more than RM10, New Hotlink Plan have these rates

Calls/SMS to Maxis/Hotlink 20sen/5sen

Calls/SMS to Other Networks 30sen/10sen

we get Activ10 rates too, and can subscribe Validity 90/365

If credit balance below RM10, the on/off net call rates are 24/36 sen (sms rates same as above)

grace period is 90 days, compared with 50 days for #hotlink

The last time I changed my Hotlink plan, that's what happened. My validity was reset to 30 days from switching date, which actually extended my validity. 30 days was the initial validity for new activations under New Hotlink Plan. These days Maxis not so generous.

anyone wanting longer hotlink validity and don't need free internet, just wait a while. there may be a second plan coming in a few weeks.

anyone received the RM5 credit so far?

still waiting mine since Friday morning, how long it takes?

ya, I think that is my problem. I was one of the first users, though I had uninstalled the app long ago. I guess Maxis kept notes on me.

thanks for the info

yes, me too

maybe Maxis had a change of heart on existing app users
