Last time (like 10 years ago), I was a DiGi Prepaid user. It was on a Nokia 3210, and the incident occurred in a double-storey house, which I rented, somewhere near Federal Highway. I don't remember the exact address...

During those days, you can use the remaining credit until the last 10 cents. With that remaining credit, you would not be able to dial out.

Here's the funny part, I can make free calls if the 2 following conditions are met:
- I am at the upstairs balcony, and the call is made to a Penang landline.

If I am on a call and leave the balcony, the call will immediately gets dropped.
If I try to make calls to any other phone numbers, be it landline or mobile, it will not get through.

I was at the place for maybe 3 months, and benefited from it for about 2 months.

This is a sharing, and if it ever happens to anyone else, lucky you. I am just wondering if such 'network holes' still exists...

i nvr tried this before.. sounds interesting

10 years ago, all telcos go by zones.
If your mobile number was registered in Penang, and you call other numbers in Penang, it was considered a local call.
If you are in Johor and you called a Penang number your call will be a local call.
If you are in Johor and you called a Johor number it was charged a different zone call which was quite expensive.
So, that was 10 years ago T&C.
Now is totally different.

Statue of limitation > 7 years

I remember it being different, let's just say if a number registered in Penang:

1. Phone connected to network in Penang:
- call local Penang land phone - local call
- call Penang registered cellphone (no matter where to phone is connected to, even if the person is in Johor when receiving the call) - local cell call
- call to a southern region registered number (even if the person standing next to you) - north-south call rate

2. Phone connected in different region, let's say Johor:
- call local Johor land phone - local call
- call back to Penang land phone - long distance call (if remember correctly)
- call Penang registered cellphone - south-north call rate
- call Johor registered number - local cell call

The world changed when DG abolished outstation rates in favour of one low fat rate...
