Err...

Can a U Mobile number be ported? I always liked 018 prefix, but I don't want U mobile rate. I want it to be Hotlink. Can or not?

Yup i dont see why not.
Maybe next time we can even choose whether we want to start our number with 018, 019 with a maxis provider.

5 business day, DiGi is processing my port out, hehe

So what's the process like?

wat telco are u switching to?

I just go to the telco I want to switch, and said I want to port in to the Telco, they ask me to fill us form registration form, and tell me the process is going to take 5 working days, meantime the existing provider will still works. They gave me Sim card too, late night, Digi send me SMS, tell me under process

how about the line,
i mean that if switch from digi (016) to hotlink (012)
then the number stil 016-xxxxxxx , but the line is using hotlink line/frequency? how about the coverage? is it using digi's one or new hotlink's one?

owh?...that sound straightforward?...
so,bumped with the first 100-perday-port-out-users?...did many turn-out?...or not yesterday but today?...

You'll be using Maxis's network

You're Fast!! check with u bro..

1) do you need to pay some deposit to your new telco? if yes, how much cost you?

2) how long does it take to refund the deposit from your existing telco?

i heard the service is expensive

it have to be fair. Or else ppl will be porting non stop .

Suddenly DIGI good all port to DIGI then maxis good all port to MAXIS

there is a RM 25 charge when you port.
I think telco will start tying user under contract preventing them from porting so easily.

They have to really get some attractive plans first if they want to make its users to sign contracts. Who is so stupid to put himself under contract when the pricing is the same.

Can we have a poll on this topic ?

to see ppl shifting from where to where

options should be

Digi-Maxis
Digi-Celcom
Celcom-Digi
Celcom-Maxis
Maxis - Celcom
Maxis - Digi
Stay with current

im staying with current, have no real issues why i should change

if the telco wanna tie us down for 1 or 2 year they better be giving away free phone else who d heck will wanna go sign a contract w/o any incentive??? In SG, all operator are doing it.

Well sooner or later they will be intense fight among the teclos.
We as the customers will get the advantage as the end results.
Yay!

very useful link.. thanks.
