where got cheaper ?
data plan mobile internet  is the same for all celcom prepaid  sad.gif  minus free 64kbps part.
but magic 64kbps have max quota at 3GB while IOX 64kbps after finish quota capped at 15GB  tongue.gif

1 gig for magic sim is 25/month , 2 gig 38/month

1 gig Hotlink 30/month , 2 gig 48/month

My usage is about 1gig per month , so magic sim is cheaper. 64kbps can't do much .... Some telco already blocked whatsapp call through their 64kbps

(High speed data)

Why block when Whatsapp voice on a 64kpbs speed is not possible anyway.

It's possible to use whatsapp call with 64kbps as whatsapp call use about that bandwidth. I used whatsapp call last 3 months on one telco but recently found out it was blocked or purposely degraded on basic Internet package

I have not tried magic sim basic Internet whatsapp call yet since I am on their 2gig high speed data package. Can someone with basic 64kbps try whatsapp call and let us know if celcom blocks it

I tried u mobile - it is not blocked (yet). Can whatsapp call with 64kbps

One more question on Magic SIM:

https://www.xpax.com.my/reload

Towards the end of the page, there's a "To Extend Your Credit Validity" section.

Keep your line active by subscribing to 1 Day validity extension at RM1 and continue to enjoy FREE Basic Internet.

Type 1DAY
Send 28882


Does this mean we can extend the validity by just a day without having to do a top-up? That is, during the passive (inactive) period, we can just type 1DAY and send to 28882 to activate the line by just a day? Thus the RM1 will be deducted from the credit balance?

Has anyone here tried this?  unsure.gif

That is how I understand it
Btw celcom revised free internet quota to 500 MB , in line with other telcos.



Free Basic Internet
All Magic SIMTM from Xpax comes with free basic Internet at the speed of 64kbps (“Free Basic Internet”).
You may continue to enjoy Free Basic Internet as long as your account is still active. If your account is inactive, the Free Basic Internet will be temporary disconnected until a reload is performed.
The Free Basic Internet is up to a maximum of 500MB usage per month per mobile number only.

Thanks for your reply. I understand about the "Free Basic Internet" part, which is quite similar to what the other telcos have. smile.gif

What I'd like to clarify is the part on:

Keep your line active by subscribing to 1 Day validity extension at RM1 and continue to enjoy FREE Basic Internet.
Type 1DAY
Send 28882


Can the validity really be extended by a day without having to do a top-up? That means, when the line is not active, we can just type 1DAY and send to 28882 to activate the line by just a day? The RM1 will be deducted from the credit balance?

This is as opposed to having to find a friend to do a credit transfer/sharing, or to actually do a top-up which will normally cost at least RM5 just for that 1 day.

I can confirm with you that RM1.00 is to buy 1 day. Tried it myself today. The basic internet is also extended for 1 day.

And celcom has not blocked whatsapp call
