I visited their website, buzzme.com.my, but lots of 404s and contact form not working. Is this MVNO going down?

Sent an enquiry via FB. See if anything happens.

For my needs, Buzzme is ideal. Anyone here doing MNP for Buzzme?

I received reply from BuzzMe via FB Messenger. They are quite responsive there. I asked and they gave me 2 dealers near my house that can do MNP.

Will probably try the MNP tomorrow.

Problem now is I registered on their website but didn't receive verification email so reloading is going to be a hassle if cannot reload online. Malas nak pergi kedai tiap kali nak reload. Haiz.

Wanted to do the port-in today so I went to the 5 dealers that were given to me by BuzzMe FB but 2 of them were no longer there and the other 3 said they don't do BuzzMe.

Anyone know of a dealer that's doing BuzzMe?

I think so too. The store locator didn't list any near me. I asked in FB and the ones that they give me there didn't pan out. Also must check to see how easy it is reload.

Why you want to use buzzme?

For 2 things, the 365 days validity and the data package which follows the main credit validity. So thinking of loading RM70 and paying RM38 (365 days validity) + RM25 (1GB data) which should give me 1GB for the whole year and RM7 credit left. It's for a phone which will need Whatsapp all the time and mostly just receive calls. And also for the experience of using an MVNO which seems half dead. :-)

The next option is DiGi with Super Long Life (RM38) and IDD Club (RM10) but data speed is slower @ 64kbps. However this will avoid the hassles of finding a dealer that can a port-in or reload.

what a waste.
SIM 1 - RM30/year data only
Get the NEW Hotlink Tablet Plan and stay connected to the internet, 365 days a year.

SIM 2 - call & SMS plan
OneXOX MNP with free 28 month validity and free RM5 inside.
XOX MNP if u want voice bundle for all network with 28 month validity.

It's a good strategy but would prefer not to swap sims because, given time, the sims will sure get lost.

HTP is out because there's no voice nor SMS.

Not sure about OneXOX but I looked at XOX. see post below.

Try xox, 28 month validity and 8GB = RM110

Thanks, but I'm not sure about the validity. 8GB RM110 is the season pass correct? What is the validity of that? Does the data validity follow the credit validity of 28 mths or the validity of the DataM package?? The Season Pass FAQ says that I have to subscribe a DataM package (cheapest DataM is RM18/mth for 500MB). What I understand is that I have to subscribe to DataM every month in order to utilise DataSP.

I tried calling XOX's number, 03-79628000 but it's disconnected.

xox min 1 month is rm18 for 500MB
so ur 8GB can last for 8000 / 500 = 16 month

Thanks, I couldn't understand their website. Suddenly XOX is looking like a good choice.

Let's say I purchase Monthly500mb once and bought the SeasonPass8GB (paying RM18 once + RM110 once = RM128):
1) If use only 284mb per month, does it mean that the 8GB will be valid for 28months?
2) Am I limited to a quota of 500MB every month? If I use more than 500mb in the same month, is the extra deducted from the season pass or charged as PPU or data is cut off until the next month?
3) When the SeasonPass8GB runs out, do I buy another SeasonPass8GB or SeasonPass8GB + Monthly500mb?
