It's only worth it to fill in the gaps where you enter area with no access to WiFi, as a backup internet connection. It's expensive if you plan to use it without WiFi.
RM30 for sim and free 1gb + RM45 for 2gb data boost will net you 3gb of internet on a one year validity. No need to top up every month unless quota exhausted. |

QUOTE(MyHeart @ May 14 2015, 04:00 PM) Upon activation, the Hotlink Tablet Plant provides the Subscriber FREE 1 GB Internet quota with a 1 year validity period. Following the 1 year validity period, Subscribers must perform a top-up & purchase a new Tablet Internet Pass within 50 days. In the event a Subscriber fails to top-up and purchase a new Tablet Internet Pass on the 50th day, the Hotlink Tablet Plan immediately expires and the Subscriber’s line will automatically expire and be terminated. How about after top up RM45 before 50 days then another 50 days need to top up again another RM45 even the quota still not yet utilize?

Dear all. I have a xiaomi redmi 1S (dual-sim phone). Currently , Im thinking to get a hotlink tablet plan sim card for my phone (for online, whatsapp and email purpose) to fit into my second slot. A guy from maxis centre said that this plan can only use in tablet, smartphone cannot work due to different AAP? APN? (Forgot Name). Can anyone clarify this?
My first sim card do not have internet data, and i need to keep that number for business usage. Please advice |

I have 2 questions on this tablet plan:
1. If this SIM card is put in 4G enable phone sim slot, can we get 4G speed? 2 Can this sim put in dongle? Because I have a dongle c/w dongle wifi router, so it is useful to put in dongle for multiple devices use. Thank you |

I walked-in to 1 of the maxis exclusive partner and they said Maxis no longer has this plan. Please kindly remove the ads about this plan on your website (http://www.hotlink.com.my/en/plans/hotlink-tablet-plan.html).
Even the hotlink customer care (1300-820-120) that I called to cannot give any answer about this. Same as your advise, asked me to refer to the website for phone number of the maxis center, and the same thing, there's no number of the maxis center at the website. Finally after arguing for around 15 minutes, they called up the maxis center and update me that there's no stock available at the maxis center which is not surprising to me. What a big disappointment. |

Hello,
As I understand from the Hotlink website as well as the Tablet packaging, that the 1GB which comes with the starter pack has a validity of 365 days. I just bought and activated the SIM card on my tablet, on last Thursday, November 19, 2016. 1. Why did it warn me today (Saturday November 21) that my 1GB is expiring on November 22, 2015? 2. Why does is it using my free 1GB (from installing Hotlink RED app) first? I have attached a screenshot of the statement. Appreciate if anybody can shed some light on this matter. Update: After a long while of searching, I discovered that the free 1GB (for 3 days) which comes when installing Hotlink RED app is not applicable for the Tablet Plan.

Unfortunately, swapping sims is not practical for me. Absent a proper USSD menu, what I need is to be able to receive TAC on the tablet sim. Then at least I could login to the Red App on another device. Failing a viable account management option before my initial 1GB quota is used up, I will most like give up on this tablet plan.

I just bought the SIM Pack. On the SIM Pack it says 1GB Free Data, Carry forward unused data up to 1 year.
What do you mean by "Carry forward unused data up to 1 year"? It's not mentioned anywhere in Maxis Hotlink T&C website. |

This Hotlink Tablet SIM card comes in what size? nano SIM or micro SIM?
Since the SIM card does not have a MAXIS mobile phone number, how do I use it with Whatsapp? |

If yes, how did you install Whatsapp on the tablet without a phone number? If you are using the phone number in another SIM card to install Whatsapp on the tablet, what happens to the existing Whatsapp account of that phone number that is already installed in another smartphone? |

You can however use another number to activate your whataspp. You can get a tron sim card and reload 10 per year for one year validity, or use onexox/xox for 28 months validity. If yes, how did you install Whatsapp on the tablet without a phone number? If you are using the phone number in another SIM card to install Whatsapp on the tablet, what happens to the existing Whatsapp account of that phone number that is already installed in another smartphone? You will be logged out from your whatsapp at your smartphone, so it is better for you to get a sim card as mentioned above to get a sim card that can receive the verification sms/call. |

Enter the mobile number you want to use Receive verification code sms on the phone having that number Enter verification code into the WhatsApp You're all set! If not already there, you will need to import your contacts into the tablet sim device for WhatsApp to sync them. If the number already in use for Whatsapp on that phone, it will fail to work. I found it's sometimes possible to keep the same account running on two devices if you remove the sim from one and use WiFi only but no promises and don't expect messages to sync between devices. |

Thanks for the replies.
It is too much of a hassle to install Whatsapp on this Hotlink Tablet SIM card without a phone number. Need to use another SIM card with a phone number.  |

Hi #Hotlink ,
Currently i am using Hotlink Tablet Plan on my tablet. When i started use it, the Hotlink Red work fine. However after the Hotlink Red updated, it required to key in mobile number in order to view details (such as remaining data). As i am using this plan on my tablet, I unable to receive any SMS. Anyway to login Hotlink Red apps ? ** I unable to login at website also due to it tried to sent TAC to my tablet, but tablet do not support to receive any SMS. EDIT: Additional information: What i tried: 1) As i read from some forum-er can skip and it will auto login.\ 2) Take out sim & Re-insert sim.

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. |

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.

Only one plan, I think Maxis made changes since launch. The printing on that simpack out-dated.

If it's the Hotlink Tablet Plan SIM pack that you've bought, then you've picked one that can only be used for data and not call nor SMS. Why complain to MCMC when the choice was yours? For prepaid plans, only the #Hotlink and Hotlink FAST can let you use data, calls, and messages. If you want Validity 365, then choose Hotlink FAST, though the 1GB will not stay there for a whole year. Anyway, if you want to install Whatsapp to your tablet, I'd suggest doing it with another regular SIM card, then swap and use the Hotlink Tablet Plan SIM card for data access after the app has been activated. |

QUOTE(danielSinclair @ Feb 16 2016, 03:46 PM) Hi Hotlink, this is useless to have a plan purposely for Internet but cannot install What'sApp. Yeah, I agree with you on this point. This plan cannot receive SMS, which mean cannot receive CODE or TAG to use whatsapp or other apps. Currently, I put this Tablet Plan SimCard on Mifi, and cannot receive SMS, so cannot check on my account detail thru other smartphone/tablet...  Don't know how to check account detail This post has been edited by sam240: Feb 20 2016, 06:37 PM |

Can your MiFi handle USSD? If so, you can check pass status under *136*9# option 1. |

Yeah this sim can't receive sms and please complain to Maxis on that. You can email them at customercare@maxis.com.my.
Use your phone keypad instead: *136*9# for status *100# for top up and pass purchase |

What is the meaning of "carry forward unused data up to 1 year"?
Is for the first 1GB or only after purchase data (RM25 or RM45)? Anyone can give some scenario? |

QUOTE(saitong09 @ Apr 13 2016, 08:35 PM) dgboy let me try anyway...my expiry date Jan next year, if top up now what will be the validity? I reckon if you top up now, your expiry date won't change. If you buy new 2GB pass, then expiry become one year from date of purchase. If you buy new 1GB pass, the pass expire after 60 days but your account remain " active " till Jan.

Had a bad experience purchasing the Hotlink Tablet Plan. Went to Maxis Centre at The Gardens, paid up RM30 and the staff had trouble activating the SIM. He told me to come back after 3 hours and even then there were still problems with the activation process. They refunded me RM30 and told me to try again next time or go to another branch.
Went to Maxis Centre at Sunway and they told me they pulled off this plan for the time being, despite the website clearly saying its available.  This post has been edited by nononsense: May 22 2016, 10:48 AM |

I PM'd hotlink's twitter support and this is their reply: 
So yesterday I went to their Maxis Center in Sunway Pyramid and in less than an hour they successfully activated the sim card on my phone. The tech guy said some phones like Xiaomi and Motorola have different APN or something. However the activation didn't went smoothly because the registration page asked for a TAC number and their website failed to sms me the TAC number to my other hotlink sim card (that can receive sms). So the tech guy did something on his PC (I dunno what, probably they have specialised internal tools) and activated the sim card. |

I've totally given up on this plan, so many issues especially for Windows users. Line gonna terminate 05 July 2016.
Good idea from Maxis, spoiled by being poorly executed. This post has been edited by dgboy: Jun 28 2016, 12:59 PM |

AFAIK, you'll have to walk in to a Maxis Center to buy the Hotlink Tablet SIM pack, don't think they do online order/delivery.What I did over at Danga Bay the other time was when they told me they'd no stock, I requested for them to check Taman Molek for me before I headed there. Similarly, you can try to get the help of a Maxis Center or Maxis staff here to help you check the Center you plan to visit in Central or Northern area. If you happen to be in Melaka, try the Maxis Center in Mahkota Parade.  |

Good to know that there is a Hotlink Tablet Plan thread here
What is the best way to Top Up exactly RM 45 ? Since this is not a normal Hotlink line, no point having extra funds in there. When I tested mine to pay with credit card, it went to Maxis Pay but the Top Up credit was at RM 100 ! Any other methods with credit card or online banking that can pay exactly RM45 ? And did the RM30 + RM10 + RM5 method work ? Anyone done this before ? Thanks guys. |

So, the term changes now and we can no longer enjoy 1GB for 1 year without additional charge when buy the new SIM card? A shame because it is like the best deal for they minimal passive internet user like only of whatappps. |

The Maxis service center in Aeon Mall Bukit Mertajam charged me RM5 to exchange the existing Hotlink Tablet micro SIM to nano SIM. Is this standard practice? Some of the previous post mentioned it should be free, no?

QUOTE(saitong09 @ Nov 29 2016, 06:40 PM) Changed my Hotlink tablet SIM to 3in1 SIM at Maxis The Gardens half year ago, was FOC Thanks for the clarification. Yea, I have heard/read from numerous people that it should be free. Likewise, I have even been told when I purchased the Hotline Tablet plan a year ago that SIM replacement to nano sim is free if I have a new device that doesn't support micro SIM (which is my case). Based on this, maybe I ought to file an official complaint to Maxis or a consumer regulatory body. |

Those Maxis folks at Queensbay Mall sounds like more reasonable. A few years back, I also got one of my SIM replaced for free there.

Really thumbs down for the Aeon Mall BM Maxis Center - they were not only rude but keep on mocking me to other Maxis Service Center if the others can do it for FOC |

I installed RED apps and can check the data balance now. But I got free 1GB DATA (after install RED) for 3 days which cannot use it all, is this normal?
Questions: 1) I saw there are option to buy 90 days (RM8) and 365 validity (RM33), what is this use for? Is Phone call and sms? 2) My simcard is going to expire on Feb soon, I just top up RM45 and buy for 2GB DATA and then I can use for 365 days of DATA, right? No need to buy for 365 validity, right? |

#Hotlink
Is that we can ignore the Credit Balance portion? even it is showed us different date range than Internet Balance portion. I don't hope this will get my plan terminated even my Internet Balance is showing me, it is active. We're okay with there are 2 expired date on each portion but not with the different active date range, it is confusing your customer. This post has been edited by cwye: Dec 27 2016, 10:40 AM |

Balance is RM0.00 Termination date 02 June 2017. Thanks. QUOTE(sohlican @ Feb 12 2017, 04:17 PM) As long as your sim doesn't expire. My pass expiring at Nov 2017 but my sim expired in Dec 2016, my sim card suddenly no service 2 days ago. Hi,Effective from 17/10/2016, all prepaid tablet plan has converted to prepaid broadband plan. The validity indicated for each respective mobile internet pass is only valid for the pass itself , not your prepaid SIM validity. If you wish to extend the validity for your prepaid SIM, you may purchase validity service 365 via *100# > My Account & Others > Buy Validity > Select your preferred validity > One-off subscription or Auto-renewal > Confirm purchase Thank you |

I topup and purchased 2GB 365 days DATA (expired on Feb 2018), after purchased and only found out Hotlink changed the policy
So for now, in order want to enjoy the DATA, I forced to topup again to purchase 365 days validity which cost me RM33, so end up spent for RM80 to get 2GB for 365 days which is.... Minimum topup value: RM45 + RM35 = RM80 |

Hotlink Customer Care claim that Hotlink has send this sms to announce Hotlink Tablet Plan has been migrated to Hotlink Prepaid Broadband, do anybody receive such sms? i never receive such sms before.
"Effective 18/10/2016, you will be able to make calls & send SMS on your plan at RM0.36/min & RM0.10/SMS. To enjoy even lower rates, dial *100*6# > Activ10 now. " |

Thanks for sharing this information.Does it mean that the validity of your card will now be the same as the RM45 2GB that you've subscribed to? That is to say, those of us who've subscribed to this RM45 2GB package before Hotlink revealed about having to pay separately for Validity 365, will not have to do it now? Hotlink should now be aware of where they've gone wrong with this plan change, and make good all the discrepancies. |

Not so much to revert the plan, but they should at least make good the validity of the card as well, for users who have unknowingly continue to renew the data package due to the lack of communication (and for some, miscommunication) on their part about having to pay separately for the validity of the card until it's too late.Despite the call of attention to the said discussions here in the forum, they didn't stand out to clarify the matter until much later - too late. |

I think any other RM45 2GB subscription will have to be done with the RM33 Validity 365, so total to keep the line completely active to use the data, will still be RM45 + RM33 = RM78...? |

My tablet plan also died last 2 days while my internet plan should only expired on Dec 2017. Called the hotlink and at the end they promised to restore back my account, but will take 3-5 working days. Wait and see next week I able to get back my account or not, else will need to report to SKMM. I think they changing the hotlink tablet plan to maxis tablet plan. https://www.maxis.com.my/en/personal/plans/...ablet-plan.html

Only thing is I can't make calls and sms which I am perfectly fine with. Hope this helps to clear some confusion to the people who is reading this. |

After reading thru the last few pages, I still remain largely confused about what is the direction of the Tablet Plan now.
I have one card with RM60 credit inside, but my validity had expired and no active internet plans. So, #Hotlink or Maxis, do I top up another RM30 so that I can first extend my validity for 1 year (for RM33), before subscribing to the RM45 for 2GB plan? Total of RM78 required?  |

QUOTE(BlueWind @ Mar 13 2017, 01:48 PM) That's exactly what I have reported to Hotlink previously about the missing option to purchase validity via the app. All the response I got was repeated questions asking if I can see it through *100#. Basically all I wanted to know is why this option to purchase via the app is missing. One thing I notice yesterday was that the auto renewable 365 days purchase pass has gone missing. This Hotlink Tablet plan can receive call and sms now? It seems to me that they are slowly removing this plan out of sight for many users. Just saying. I intend to carry on with this plan as it is my secondary number which I use it for junk calls. I remember last year I can't even receive TAC to use it for Uber/Grab. |

Hotlink Tablet Plan. Rm 45 for 2gb, 1 year validity. Bought it in May last year. When I bought it there was only one expiry date.

I haven't been able to use it throughout April, especially when I needed it most for work when my workplace wifi was down. |

The recent change should not affect our cards since that's way after our subscriptions. Have you got into the app to check the expiry dates? For the data expiry, you've to tap on your data balance to see it. Check your data balance and expiry date, and also the validity of your line on the home page. |

Otherwise *122# is to check card balance... go through the *100# menu to check the rest of the information...? Or, contact Hotlink here to check the line for you - send them a PM. |

it seem maxis/hotlink response to this [Hotlink Tablet Plan has been migrated to Hotlink Postpaid Broadband] issue, was deal with case by case basic, each user have to report to maxis/hotlink custcare, and report to mcmc if maxis/hotlink custcare didnt revert the package plan changes, maxis/hotlink didnt revert all hotlink tablet plan customer to previous plan all together at once.

Maxis #Hotlink It seems that while I had recently subscribed to 2GB for 365 days plan starting from 1st of May, I'm still getting "termination date 20 Jun 2017" in "balance". Why is this still happening despite the mention that validity will follow data plan? Data plan is valid until 1 May 2018.

I have a hotlink tablet plan bought in 2014, used for two years without issue, then topped up in November 2016, and it expired in Feb 2017. Basically the plan got changed, and it affected plan purchased in the past. If your plan still show validity and internet plan expiring at same date, then it is probably still ok. But be careful when you next top up, you might find they no longer provide the 365 days validity.The recent change should not affect our cards since that's way after our subscriptions.

It is not like those on such plan are hogging their bandwidth due to extremely limited amount of quota. It is really merely for light use only. |

Yes, so if you've bought early last year or late the year before, that 2GB would have expired around early this year or late last year. Thus, if you bought another 2GB after that, it'd have been around when they made the changes.If you'd followed the discussions here, many have already mentioned about the 2 different expiry dates and Maxis Hotlink subsequently confirmed that after the change, paying RM45 for 2GB gives users only 1-year validity on the data, and constant top-up has to be done to keep the line active in order to use the data. |

Tried to reload my quota this month, and it is having 2 different expired date.
It is updated to same expired date after Maxis help. It seem that we need to do extra work to inform them but at least they willing to help. |

Why is this still happening despite the mention that validity will follow data plan? Data plan is valid until 1 May 2018. Same here. It seems like Maxis realized that they are not making any money out of it, as some do prolong their 2GB to almost 365 days. Hence, they modified their plan to 'broadband' so people will need to topup more frequent. I am disappointed though. Even if they want to discontinue their tablet plan, they should at least fulfill their old promises. I have around 900mb left and my tablet plan validity is until Feb next year. Now they want me to constantly topup to keep the line active..for what? Defeats the purpose. For what? This post has been edited by firefly3x: Jul 28 2017, 10:31 AM |

No point for Tablet Plan now .. might as well you get TuneTalk and use PPU at 2cents / MB compared to Hotlink Tablet Plan RM45 for 2GB at 2.19cents / MB.
Beware of their scam. https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4303090 |
