Been using Digi for the past 10+ years & decided to port to Celcom First Basic 38 (along with my sub + other lines, total of 4x lines converted).

And shock to realize that Celcom 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 regret that I made the wrong decision to port all my lines out to Celcom.

Drop calls, Zero reception, Dead/Snail data - are all I'm facing currently. Escalated to Celcom 3x times (3x case numbers), 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 Celcom 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).  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 am really hoping this to be temporary (but 2 weeks already), as the First Basic 38 is really a competitive plan that I wish to stay on for all my 4 lines to also reduce my monthly bills. However if things remain, then no choice but to pay a little more, than to hold a phone with ZERO reception. Impossible to have a phone that can't even dial out emergency.

Sharing with you the missed-calls record (with my cell/data network on).

Summary of all the issues after 1 month of usage:
- Whenever 3G/H+ received, phone network strength will show full bar. But 4G received, signal bar immediately drop to 1-2 bar.
- Data usually works outdoor (slow speed), but dead whenever goes indoor.
- Averagely 1-3 call drop every 5mins call.
- During calls, very often voice turn into some robotic/transformer like sound. Happened to different Celcom line (different devices).
- Delayed SMS received.
- Sometimes when you tried to end a call, it will keep auto-redial for no reason & refuse to end call. Happened to all my Celcom line (different devices "Samsung & Asus").
- Call connection is slow. Averagely took 7-9 secs to connect.

aiyo...

when there's a cheaper plan, ppl port over, realize lousy connection, complain complain complain, port back to old telco

the cycle repeat.. So blame who??     

maybe by year end they will have another package, which will be less than RM36, you can always switch to the cheaper ones, no contract for DiGi

Choosing this mode means you won't be able to enjoy LTE signal if you are in coverage.

Hi..how to get this offer from maxis? Call to 123 and request line termination? or go to other telco do mnp first?
i am maxis postpaid user for >10y

My office got user switch to this plan. No complaint on Data part.

but his monthly bill RM150 ~ RM180.

because .... he need to call a lot, and this plan not suitable for heavy caller. He miss count badly. Lol ..
