They will then say different price is due to various factors like how long customer have been with Maxis, monthly usage, bill payment habit etc.

You've made the right decision for now. 2GB monthly quota with additional 500MB of data every weekend and comes with bundled calls/SMS for less than RM50 monthly.

Celcom's supplementary line is not really worth it if you need data as each supp line is at RM30 monthly which comes with only 500MB data. For the supp line, better just let it be on a separate account and get the FIRST Blue at RM45 monthly which comes with 2GB monthly data and additional 500MB data every weekend.

When you submit your MNP request at Celcom, you can tell them to do so that your current supp line numbers would want to be on FIRST Blue.

Perhaps they might just add another 2GB of data to their existing plans.

One Plan 98 - 3GB
One Plan 128 - 5GB
One Plan 158 - 7GB
One Plan 188 - 9GB

In Maxis' point of view: "You asked for more data and we delivered"

Actually there's also a special plan from DiGi for East Malaysia customers.

It's not available on DiGi's website but can enquire at the centres/dealers there.

Can give Celcom a try.

Probably this is the next new U Mobile. First step for them is to overtake U Mobile first within Klang Valley.

Maxis must come up with something better now.

Maxis want to counter this? Later staffs "port out" to DiGi for this benefit.

Rumoured revised plan:

RM98 - 5GB
RM128 - 7GB
RM158 - 10GB
RM188 - 15GB

Have to wait and see if it turns out to be true.

Perhaps their management still have not approved any new plans.

Come to think of it, recently many people are paying the penalty to terminate contract and port out. Could it be that Maxis is using this opportunity to collect as much penalty fee as possible and probably launch their revised plans few months later?

From what I see, many people who want to port out are actually happy with Maxis' network quality but just frustrated with the pricing and all especially with the recent bad press against them. When they have better plans, I can still foresee people porting back to Maxis.

Few years back, Celcom's pricing was not that low. DiGi's pricing on the other hand was kinda competitive but their network quality was not that good back then. Things have change and Maxis needs a new strategy now and fast.

Or sometimes the network name appear as 502-153.

YTL's YES network.

What network are you on, only 1 bar signal strength?

Yes, throttled but still usable for messaging apps.

They changed that policy ever since telcos started offering free basic internet.

Maxis can moderate their own section. Maybe you can contact them to know why, I'm sure there's a reason.

The Maxis account is the moderator, they have moderating rights for this section.
