Open Discussion
I have been using handphone for 14 years and all the while it has been prepaid because I can't control the usage of postpaid. Recently when i was calculating the usage of the postpaid and prepaid i was surprise that my prepaid is more expansive then postpaid by RM 5.30 which is the reload of a RM5 nowadays with the GST. So i decided to change the prepaid lines i have to postpaid.
i have another 2 which use for my mobile business which i am using another telco prepaid which is cheaper by RM0.05 per SMS
also i have a broadband this i use it on alternate months so it does not bothers me much and after all is the same price as the postpaid. Now i am really satisfied with my coversion and also MNP of my numbers.
Oh yeah one more thing.............
....since i started working and know the value of money
i can NOW control the usage of my phone either prepaid or postpaid.

Goodbye prepaids........ of this telco

Anyone has the same issue here

Ya i heard it in January 2016.........Postpaid got GST is cheaper then my Prepaid just for your info

call is 0.30/12 mins or 3 mins to another telco
even i call 1 min is also RM0.30

so it take the info of postpaid 50 mins +2gb data
prepaid is 0.30x50 is RM15.00+ 2GB data=RM38.00
RM15.00+RM38.00=RM53.00

Postpaid 50 mins +2gb data
0.00x50+2GB data=0.00
0.00+0.00=0.00
because included inside the monthly commitment
RM45.00+6%=RM47.70

therefore RM53.00-RM47.70=RM5.30
is so much cheaper.
BTW i usally reload RM100 for 2 lines
RM50x2+6%=RM100+RM6=RM106

There are no such thing as compare between prepaid vs postpaid
1 of the reason is prepaid subscription can be changed anytime meanwhile postpaid u still retain the same pricing even if telco decided to abolish it but sometimes they force to change.
