Hi I m using umobile in Penang. If you are planning to register with umobile. I suggest you try out the prepaid first. The coverage of umobile is really bad in Penang. 70℅ of the time I can't use my phone.

70℅ of the time you can't use your phone? Both voice and data or only data?

Mostly data.. I live in SG ara. That area is exceptionally bad for reception. I have to switch on my SG number just so that I can be reach. Sometime u can't even get reception in shopping mall. Like queensbay, no reception in USM. TG Bungah.. The list will go on but this are the area I normally hang out

I at jalan ipoh also sometimes line so slow.
Dont know what happen to umobile.
Speedtest not even 3mb speed

Klang valley also not so good, especially indoor

I believe at least I don't face any of these issue in Cheras/Kajang/Kepong/PJ/Subang Jaya. I get decent speed around 6-7mbps indoor

How about inside shopping mall? Maybe the areas you go no issue

U28 has 50 minutes free call (and he mentioned he's not using for call).

RM28 + GST is still less than RM30. And RM30 is for 30 days, RM28 is for a month. Per year spend is RM356.16 for U28, RM365 for Power Prepaid.

"Save" is no use if the money can't be utilised for anything. At most use to buy more data, but his usage less than 1GB per month. Finally even with buying a UMI plan data still same as U28, but more expensive.

Basically I don't know why anyone would want Power Prepaid over U28 unless a LOT of calls till the free calls can habis and the difference in call rates kicks in.

yes, i have been doing this since bcard promo to umobile mid of last year at 530 points = rm10. starting january 2016 it was back to normal 1k points = rm10. but recently promk back to 500 points = rm10. i used it to do hundreds of advance payment to my umobile.

Exchange can be done in the app or must be at bcard website?

I believe more than 80% of Malaysian is using prepaid.

Both also can

usj area can't even get to call without putus-putus not to mention data lol...

better use website.

sorry, double post.

Hi gus, im currently using Maxis line post paid.

If i wanna change to U mobile, i just directly g to U mobile centre?

inside shopping mall around 4.5mbps which I consider pretty good

Nothing wrong with prepaid, my wife uses the old 2x validity prepaid, spend rm20 a month.

Its the power prepaid that doesn't make sense.

power plan make sense for moderate data users

yerp. agree with u. i also use both, maxis and umobile, and it is very poor. my connection speed was laughable here compared to other places. its unbelievable since this area got so many high end houses and few top company located here as well. just doesnt make sense. lol
