Maxis offered me a free Samsung Galaxy Note 5, rm88 (7+1GB One Share unlimited calls & SMS plan with rm100 monthly rebate) and a rm48 One Share Supplementary unlimited calls&SMS plan while tied to a 2 year contract as a counter offer to my intention of switching to Celcom's First Gold Plan and First 1+5 Supplementary Plan. The thing is their counter offer is inferior to Celcom's plan and it's even more expensive than my existing rm98 One Plan + rm30 Supplementary Plan. I don't know what they're smoking (read: thinking).

As they say all good things must come to an end. I can't say I didn't try on my side.  Certainly, in this case, Maxis was the disinterested party. They let go of an 18 year relationship.

Wtf? Why cant they open up all these plans to public or customers?

Why would they? We are flocking to sign up with them.

Let them hear the voice of the customer. Just maybe, maybe they will reconsider. If the attrition rate is high enough to shake up their senior management and maybe send some shivers down the spine of their top decision makers the general public might just be able to enjoy more rational and reasonable rate plans from this GIANT telco.

Right now Maxis doesn't hear us.

The purposely made it hard for MNP i presume.

Maxis would still can say their revenue gets better, not rocket science ya, thier subs are willing to pay high rates (for now). but their churn rate is increasing.

I got to admit, Maxis support is awesome. It is really good, a call can get everything from switching plan to termination done quickly. But then do you call them every day? I only call them a few times a year.

Maxis network is great but Celcom is not far behind on this. Maxis is faster but Celcom's coverage is wider. So I guess it is a tie.

With Celcom new infra sharing with TM, I believe they are going to get better on their speed.

I am sorry to say altough Maxis line is expensive, but Celcom line was really suck at my hometown...

I back to my hometown for CNY celebration now, I manage to get H+ signal but the page/browser just doesnt move at all.. speedtest results 0.2-0.3mbps..

Luckily I still have Maxis prepaid sim (Hotlink) with me, I manage to get 4G and the speed is awsome.. perhap, too many Maxis users are ported out and line was not congested now..

It is hard for me to admit Maxis line was awsome at my hometown now for this 1 week CNY celebration...

But hopefully they will do some changes to introduce some better price postpaid plan in the future..

For me, both line quality and price are equally important for me

Guys, I'm currently on the SurfMore 50 plan. RM 50 for 2gb data. But recently Maxis has been giving +2gb for free per month, so total data quota per month is 4gb.

However my friend told me that this has ended and the plan is now back to 2gb per month only. Is this true? If that's the case I'm jumping to Digi 75 plan with 7gb.

Why not call Maxis to expedite the process? Reminds them every 6 hrs until it's done. If they delay, you'll pay for unutilised/overlapping cellular coverage from both service providers at once. By right, if Maxis had yet to disconnect or complete MNP, DiGi shouldn't activate your new SIM now.

none of the Maxis staff can comment anything about Maxis ONE expensive plan biggrin.gif

i guess it is only Maxis going opposite direction where Celcom, Digi and U Mobile continue be more competitive....

Maxis... DATA become expensive and more expensive which forcing new subscriber to their ONE expensive plan

Celcom, Digi and U Mobile continue to provide cheaper DATA plan... with free calls/sms

recently my friend change from Maxis surfmore 50 to Digi 75.... the next day Maxis call him why he change... he ask Maxis can offer RM75 7GB or not? LoL

to be honest, Celcom, Digi is doing good in coverage... Maxis speed is faster, BUT we do not need 20Mbps of speed with 2GB of data plan @ RM50

p/s: Morten Lundal must leave Maxis... he must be the tumor in Maxis... ever since he joined Maxis... all data plan become EXPENSIVE... he must be secret agent to kill Maxis tongue.gif

I use Maxis because im satisfy with their 4g coverage & quality (indoor & outdoor) and free spotify.

3Gb package for me is enough, the rest office & home use wifi.

In terms of value honestly umobile is better, but their coverage and internet speed not so reliable (in Cyberjaya)

You got your facts wrong i supposed ? blink.gif

Celcom FiRST GOLD 80 plan is UNLIMITED for ALL calls & the internet data plan’s 10GB data quota is actually split into two equal 5GB portions: a “main” monthly 5GB data plus an additional 5GB data that’s allocated only for the weekends (1.25GB every weekend).

This plan also comes with the ability to carry forward unused data. However, this will only apply to the 5GB of monthly data. As for the weekend data, they will refresh every weekend, meaning that any unused data from the 1.25GB quota will be forfeited the following Monday. It should also be noted that Celcom will use this weekend quota ahead of the user’s monthly data on weekends.

Besides that, the plan also offers unlimited calls and texts to all networks, and a free 12-month trial to Celcom’s Yonder Music app, which allows you to stream music for free.

Finally, subscribers will also get 5GB allocation when using Celcom’s WiFiPlus zones, and bonus Internet of 1GB when your bill hits RM225 and above, or 2GB when your bill tops RM500 (roaming charges not included).

From the terms and conditions, this plan is a limited time promotion that will end on 31 March 2016.

Hi guys, I am also a 20 years on maxis. 20 years!
My contract will be end october. All the extreme bad encounter with maxis centre for the last contract, seriously no point to bring out anymore.

I would like to know, the Strenght of Celcom. I understand their line coverage is widest, and i heard their 4G not as fast as maxis, are this true? Cause I will be going to celcom once my contract end. I only concern is few time a year will be travel back to home town from KL, if the 4G doesnt work properly, it will be not so enjoyable. ( can still live with it) KL should be getting proper 4G signal. I am a light user on 4G, cause usually is connected with WIFI. Unless traveling to outstation, 4G become my best friend.... tongue.gif

And yes, unlimited call and sms is needed (Yes, SMS is needed). Or frame it on highest free call by minutes is best.

Digi and Umobile is last choice. Tq
