I'm not joking.. my real story
Been using Digi for the past 10+ years & decided to port to Celcom First Basic 38 (along with my sub + other lines, total of 3x lines converted, 1 remain as DG prepaid).
My reason is DG reception is terribly horribly BAD. Almost 80% of my daily reception is on 1-2 bars. And with such weak signal, data network is almost like handicap <cacat>. So I am happy that I made the right decision to port all my lines out to Celcom.
Drop calls, Zero reception, Dead/Snail data - are all I'm facing previously. Escalated to DG many times, but said Tech Support going to contact me (not surprising that no one ever contact me after that). And what is the point of calling me for, it is not my line issue now, is the entire DG signal strength we're talking about.
Some may say it's the location I'm in. Well, I got 4x lines all together (use by 4 different people; in different locations; travelling around Klang Valley & PJ & Swak). All encounter the same problem & having the same complaint.
Tried resetting network, signal booster app, tried on different devices, speed test like crazy - all the same problem.
I think that is enough said.
But I have a horrible porting experience.. total exercise took me 3 trips to Celcom, 2 to DG and overall completed in 2 weeks... took new sim cards 4 times but actually no need, but Celcom TTDI keep telling me they know their company and procedure. That proves them wrong. But so far better than DG.

one complaint though... I have 1GB data on DG, every month cannot finish. The same for years.. but with Celcom I have 3GB, and within less than a week, Celcom says I have used 70%.. I wonder why
