Hi

It looks like the war among the MY telcos is beginning. Let's hope it gets more intense.

This is the only time that we, the consumers, can benefit, for once!

Only Celcom Digi umobile are in real fight. Maxis fight like a girl.

Maxis didn't fight like a girl.
Maxis doesn't fight at all.

maybe maxis wants to be seen as exclusive, only those can afford them use them.

http://www.u.com.my/postpaid_broadband

Just checked Umobile. Their postpaid broadband plan MB40 now got 4gb peak and 2gb off peak for RM40! Last month I check the plan only gives 2gb peak and 2gb off peak.

Time to change from Maxis to Umobile MB40. My current maxis broadband plan juz 1.5gb peak and 1.5gb off peak, at RM50 sumore after GST.

maxis : my customer all rich royalty customer, outside gv free they also maintain with me.

Even my company lines is going to port out from Maxis to Celcom. Maxis thinks that they are premium brand in Malaysia, but nothing special after all, yet the plans offered getting expensive...

Got, Surf More 50 increase 2GB. Pussycat fight.

maxis coverage is not that great. I think most major telcos, their coverage is more or less the same, so best go for the cheapest (however you may maintain to be exclusive to remain with the most expensive)

Dammit lol, previously I was using U Mobile P50 3GB plan and I switched to Celcom Basic 38 3GB plan, and then now suddenly U Mobile went nutz and launched this awesome plan lol. Nevermind, I'm happy with Celcom, their coverage is better than U Mobile, and I can still carry forward my unused data to the next month, still worth the money.

Glad to see our local telcos getting serious now, except Maxis lah, still wow wow wow like bodoh in TV ads. Wanna be a premium telco lol, suck banana lah. What Celcom, U Mobile and Digi are offering is the real WOW, Maxis is the real LOL.

For me, Celcom > U Mobile > Digi > Maxis.

the maxis surf more 50 already 2gb u mean they add on another 2gb for it ?? so total 4gb ?? i just ported to digi from maxis yesterday. and yes maxis coverage is much more better thn digi.im using lte with my digi line thn suddenly show no service. dafuuuq, but ok la paying that cheap confirm get that kind of service.

Here is the comparison now.


Attached thumbnail(s)

I totally agree with u. but for me I'll stick to P50 cuz I use data a lot & extra sim to another phone for call & data sharing.

Good for u. Tbh, when U Mobile upgraded P50 to 5GB, I was tempted to switch back, but the line in my area was quite bad and Celcom is way better. After all, it depends on your area lah. Nevertheless, Celcom and U Mobile are my favorite telcos, Digi and Maxis are meh.

sometime rich customer also cheapskate and jump to celcom
that's how they become richer by saving more money

Just signed Celcom FIRST™ Basic 38. Anyone using this plan too? 3GB data

how celcom's coverage ? will it be 4g all the way in KL PJ selangor area ?

Haha i just use it today... i at penang area dint have any problem yet

the only strong point for maxis is that the fact their 4G coverage is waaaaay better in KL than any other telcos and their limitless calls and sms

other than that, they suck balls

For businessman, One Plan is a blessing. For us, it's outdated.

I think Maxis got their plan all wrong. Like my boss, he made lots of calls. You give him One Plan and his bill went from 300 to 128. However for us who only made RM10-15 calls, it's totally not worth. Maxis should retain data users instead because businessman usually don't care much about cost, and prioritize coverage. Most still prefer Maxis after such long history of good coverage.

So maxis went from 300 to 128+gst and losing us as customers.

and for 6 month only......really cheapskate

Cannot trust UMobile.my sister n mum use umobile.a lot of times they cannot be reached because out of service or somewhat.one time we were truly worried when they cannot be contacted for few days during a visit to relatives in kelantan..hahah

maxshit is a pussy but after numerous complaint in my area seremban now improve a lot H+ becum 4g .be4 hard to connect and use.i still prefer maxshit and sialcom.tried digi sp36 now facing tower issue call n login playstore pun susah..

Hahaha, Maxshit & Sialcom. Seriously, I like the way you put it.

thanks...

totally agree with u,i was a maxis user 2 days ago lol, i ported in to digi from maxis because digi promotion is much more better,for RM3x u can enjoy for 3gb.but i was alittle upset when i ported in to digi and i realised maxis has a promotion for my previous plan which is surfmore50 + extra 2gb.and yea this is the fact, Maxis 4g coverage is way better in KL and PJ selangor AREA.DIGI always show 3g in some area in KL. haiz alittle bit regret la.but this is what you pay for.

umobile can use maxis 2G unless u lock network to 3G only.

Digi sure win

Maxis so high and mighty ah? Ok loh, TONIGHT I TERMINATE YOU!!!

I switch to Celcom first basic 85. JUST WATCH ME!

ROFL.

Tagging Maxis's official tech support in our forum to see if they can tell us a little bit if Maxis is coming out with a new plan to counter all of this.
Maxis MaxisHelp #Hotlink

Though I highly doubt they'll respond.

i trust that the maxis mgt knows their
client is leaving one by one. They should
be sack if they did not come out with
any counter plan to stop the bleeding.

If they think they are premium class
( Mercedes), then no need to worry.
But the consumer like us, cannot
see which of their services and
products are mercedes class.

By the time i finish writing this message
, another 56 left!!

Morning, my friend went to celcom to migrate from maxis.

Evening, maxis call him offering "new loyalty" package; monthly rm46 3gb data, 200 min free call, 100 free sms.

I want that package too!
Getting really frustated with Celcom's coverage in both my office & at home.

Damn it Maxis, come on already!
Release that plan to the public so everyone can enjoy.

My dad has 3 lines (dad, brother, mother) under Digi, I called Digi and asked if they could offer me something in the form of loyalty bonus for being their customer for the past 7 years.

They said no.

So I told my dad to go ahead and jump to celcom. Only RM2 more expensive, but with much better network. Superb offer. Was thinking about Umobile, but Celcom it is.

I would have preferred Digi, but decided that it was stupid for them for their 12-month limit on their DG50 offer. Even if some of you guys say come next year they will probably have better offer and I can jump to that, I don't want to entertain a company that can't provide the same service for longer than 12 months. If they had removed that limited-time offer, I would consider them too, even without a loyalty-bonus.

Can't say for sure. Celcom network is more robust than Digi, but just a little more expensive by RM2, and 50 less minutes and sms

But you can carry forward the data up to 2x max your monthly allocation.

All that for RM2 more?

Celcom is good?

dont think so at least i know i'm not alone.

Digi also not so good

This morning I reply Y to port from maxis to celcom, then maxis counter offer me with the rm46 plan:
- talkmore 28 (RM28) - 200 mins call/ 200 sms
- 3GB data (RM18), ori price RM58
- valid for 1 year only, and 1 year contract.

so next year it will become RM86, i got to change plan just after expired, else will kena charge kao kao.

I check back my previous 6 months usage, talk time is around 30 ~ 100 mins


Thinking, should I jump to celcom or stay with maxis ?

Part of the reson i am having my family ported from Digi to Celcom is because of Digi's "1 year promotion". I dont want to get caught with 1 months dealyed bill and this month's prorated current usage bill of DG50.

Celcom's offer is foreever which is nice.

Before you apply for the MNP, are you using Maxis postpaid or Hotlink?

Postpaid surfmore 50. Already 10+ years with Maxis :-)

No wonder you got that package.
I want that package too, grew tired of Celcom not getting coverage at home & at the office.

Before I registered Celcom's First Basic 38, I've been using Hotlink for more than 5 years.
When I was using Hotlink, the coverage is very good where I've never lost a single bar in both at home & at the office. Internet speed is very fast too.
But now that I'm using Celcom, the coverage is really bad. Sometimes I'm getting full bars, sometimes completely disconnected. Internet speed is also very very low.

At first I thought it was caused by my phone.
Then I plug the sim card to my tablet, same issue.

Good for consumers.

Same here Maxis postpaid.
In my case, I called 123 first to request change to the RM46 plan but 123 buat dunno only. Said no such plan.
So I proceeded to port over to Celcom first basic 38 and replied Y to confirm MNP at 3.40pm today. Around 5pm Maxis called and counter offer RM46 plan, I accepted and got the new plan activated in 10mins.

For those who want switch to celcom,do it right now cause it will expire at 16th July.MNP need few day to proceed,don't do it at last minute.

I'm using celcom basic 38, so far area PJ i can get 4G since im working here, no problem at all ..I'm stay at Shah Alam btw, so far so good.

So far so good, I'm satisfied with it. You can even carry forward the unused data to the next month as well.

I'm using it. So far so good, especially you can carry forward your internet for next month

You can only carry forward maximum 3GB to the next month. For example, if you have 1GB left for this month, it will be added to the next month, so it will be 3GB + 1GB = 4GB, you get 4GB on the next month.

The coverage is good, most places have 4G.

Just ported to celcom 38. So far so good. Data definately faster than digi.

No time for you consider too much,the promo will end at 16 july.You can try to port to the celcom first,if your place is not good then only change to other telco.
Or go to buy a prepaid card to test.

No problem for me wor better than digi lo

I wonder how beneficial y will be, because I'm pretty sure these telcos would not let us get the benefit for long, until they pull it off one by one.

+1 , i'm working at PJ have 4G too

How bout Red One? 8 ringgit only

Digi data very slow

do Postpaid able to rollover unused data or credit?

go to port now then only get real cool.

Yes.

Maxis seeks for peace and serenity

Just to correct your statement, it's not the last day on 16/7 to sign up this plan, it's just the last day to get 3gb + 3gb permanently as long as subscribers stay with this plan. After 16/7, first basic 38 plan will only come with 2gb + 2gb.

any new plan...

as of current no. lol

just got that maxis rm46 promo also...within a couple hrs of me accepting Y to MNP to another telco...and activated within 5mins of maxis calling
and reason why 123 dunno is cos they really dunno...
the one that called is from promotion dept...when i asked some questions on i want to change my billing cycle they said to call 123 or they can forward to them for me.

Maxis customer service told me to be patient - as the new plan is not yet ready. They asked me to stay tuned

my friend working at maxis say that they will come out with plan better than umobile

im guessing the new plan is to rival P50.
wont take much to rival U28, and maxis has never really offered a main complete plan for so cheap before.

If they do that, they need to revamp all the maxis one plan as the new plan of 3gig data will cannabalize their existing postpaid plans. I shall wait and see first but very tempted to port out to celcom

I believe instead of competition, other company will start to sabotage UMobile.

why worry about umobile.their coverage memang sucks except klang valley.as a penangite i will never consider umobile

any idea i can get to promotion department thru 123?

maxis will come out with 2 distinct segment to cater for med low end user and high end user segment

got more clearly info?

no way, unless u port out and hope for counter offer from maxis...
else i guess wait and see what the new supposedly competitive plans are.

http://www.maxis.com.my/en/personal/plans/...maxisgo-wm.html

MaxisGO plan

RM48 100mins calls and sms
1GB data + 1GB(2am-7am)

what a joke man

haha and as expected their challenge to a rm50 plan...
good thing i got the promo counter offer

but 1gb only can be used during all hours...hmm...wtf.

maxis counter offer is crap. 1GB data for RM48. they wont win this war.

from their annual report , they are earning way too much from business customers , wont care about us

Good for you.
Yesterday Celcom called me to update me about the MNP rejection and asked me to go and settle with Maxis, they will extend the 3GB promo offer for me until sometime in August.

Perhaps for now.
