You mean use the tablet sim to provide data service to the WhatsApp under the other sim number, right?

Yes, something like that should be possible.

Yes, I have a Digi SIM card in SIM1 already and I want to use the Hotlink Tablet mobile data (in SIM2) for Whatsapp using my Digi phone number.

Is that possible?

With your Digi SIM card in Slot 1, and the Hotlink Tablet SIM card in Slot 2:

- You can set the Data Service Network to Slot 2 - draw data usage from the Hotlink Tablet SIM card.
- The Whatsapp account can only be registered using the Digi SIM card number, or any other phone numbers other than the Hotlink Tablet one.

It's like using the Digi SIM card for calls and SMSes, and the Hotlink Tablet SIM card to draw the data required to use Whatsapp.

So it can be done!

Thank you.

not an issue, just remember that your phone number is just used for the initial registration, even if you registered using your digi number and removed the digi sim afterwards, it would still work.

Yes, it can be done.
Using this method on my wife's phone.

Hi wondering is the sim pack has expired date.
Let said I buy now and only registered and use it in April, can I do that?

Tq

Hi alicia-l,

It has a validity of 365 wherein it will be active for 365 days from the date of your purchase.

In addition, you may check your account status via Red App or *100#.

Thank you

All prepaid sim pack have an expiry date by which you have to activate the sim. It's normally quite far away date. You can check when you buy.

You mean we can buy a prepaid pack but only get it registered later?

How do we do it when we're ready to register the said pack? Just visit any service center?

It's quite difficult to buy without registering on the spot, but if you insist it should be possible.

Later you can register by visiting Maxis Centre, or possibly using an existing registered line with the same details.

@kokweng1

can your tablet be set as WiFi hotspot? if yes:

activate the hotspot

connect another device with Red App installed, to the hotspot

open the Red App to access your account

Hi dgboy,

Thanks for advice,

Wont on step 4 also required TAC code ?

Well , i can take out the sims and put to another device that support SMS and get TAC then access it.
However, this will very troublesome when wanted to view/top-up data. (just swap out sim to other device just to inquiry)

I hope Hotlink can set a different phone number to receive TAC code,
Because most people buy this plan is use on their tablet which do not support SMS.

@kokweng1

This sim card cannot receive sms no matter what device you put it in. If you open the Red App using internet from the sim, no login should be required because the sim itself authenticate you. However, the Red App itself seems to have a few issues.

Can your tablet do USSD? There are some codes can be used:

*136*9# to check quota
*100# to check credit balance, top up or buy pass

I do agree Maxis should make this plan easier to manage.

Hi, I'm new to this package.
Want to ask, new pack of simcard is RM30, right?
Come with 1GB data for 365 days? --> any TnC, like need reload within 365 days?

After 365 days or finish the 1GB data, minimum to buy data is RM45 for 365 days?
If there any other cheaper package?

If buy this and use on Mifi, should no problem, right?

Yes, RM30 for the SIM pack and it comes with 365 days validity and 1GB data free.

There's a cheaper option which is RM25 for 1GB but only valid for 60 days. You can see it here.

Should be no problem to use. Just do whatever setup you need in a phone, then transfer the SIM card to your MiFi.

@RDoe, thanks for your info.
Will try look for a budget LTE MiFi, thanks.
