The last time I ported in they asked me which plan I wanted and took a month's advance. Then they tell me that once the port in is successful only then do I need to go back again and buy the phone with the advance payment. Not sure what the process is like now.

Hi guys, planning to get an Iphone6 from Maxis.
Something I want to ask: Currently I'm on Maxis SurfMore 50 plan, and every month my bill amount will be roughly around RM60++ - 70++.
Mostly I'm using data services, not so active in making calls.
Which plan is recommended for me to sign up? I notice the iValue 1(RM100), with the same amount of data allocated(2GB), plus with some talktimes and SMS, is it worth it?
And also, The Gardens Maxis Centre do have stock? (Iphone 6 64GB gold)

I think it's probably the cheapest plan if you need 2GB of data monthly. iValue Simple only has 1GB of data and that tends to run out quickly, plus no significant savings in device price for iValue Simple. Just sign for a year and switch back to Surfmore after your contract ends.

I think I saw somewhere someone saying that the Advance Payment is being waived, subject to previous clean record, on time payment, etc.. Is it true?

It's been quite awhile since Iphone 6 and 6 plus launched, will they have ready stock at Maxis Centre? Or still need to try my luck? (As I can see from previous posts, it's like treasure hunting here and there, got money also cannot get 1.)

If you've been with maxis for minimum a year and have good payment record then they will waive it.

I think it's fairly easier now to get one but depends also on what specific capacity and color you want

They just left all 16GB model. The others will just restock either Wed or Fri, based on the guy over there. And ask me to call 123 to ask whether have stock already or not before go over again. Haiz, seems like Maxis are having so so limited stock.
