is it possible to still get phone plan without data?

my dad is still using his basic nokia phone for business, i gave him a smartphone but he refuse to learn it.

his current plan is getting expensive so i try to look for a new plan for him, but no telco has plan without data.

all he need is just call and sms.

Well, I had the same situation as you before and currently all plans comes with data as during the time of my survey. End up, switching my dad's line to prepaid. That would be the cheapest option...

I was thinking the same as well to switch to prepaid.

but since he use it for business, prepaid is inconvenient as there is validity period.

(sometimes if forgot to reload will inactive cant make call )

use prepaid

28 months validity with onexox

only 5 cent for short call (less than 10 sec)



10 fren & family to all telco

I am using Maxis postpaid call plan without data. Not sure whether they still have that for new customer. I think it is called TalkMore28.

if your dad seldom talk on the phone then prepaid is the best way to go. And the cheapest around town is XoX. I have ported over to XoX and find it to be sufficient. It uses Celcom network which is good enough for me.

There are a bit of learning curve with it's DA/MA system but adiwarna's support is great. He replied all my PMs quickly and accurately.

So now, I do not need to topup my phone for 28 months if there are enough credits in it.

XoX got postpaid plan if that u want

XoX by default no data. meaning No PPU. unless u subscrive internet plan and have quota. finish quota internet totally block et all.

can consider redone http://www.redone.com.my/plans/personal/

if he is businessman and high call usage, can consider u mobile hero, RM 70 monthly get unlimited call. Data just ignore.

Go for those unlimited calls and SMS plans.

imo is better get plan come with data. best no extra charges once it exceed quota, just throttle.

notice alot of consumer switching from very old to smartphone just for calling only, still get charger for internet ppu

the generic brand. data are switch on by default. some are broken* background apps auto connect internet.

maybe later u can teach yr parents to use viber/whatsapp for free calls

i dont think his dad need that
