I am currently with Maxis Surfmore50. With the latest video from Maxis, it is obvious that Maxis is no longer have any interest for cheap packages enhancement. So I am opening this topic since I am stucked between Digi 48 and Umobile U28

After long study this is the conclusion I made

Digi 48
100 minutes calls/sms
3gb + 1gb rollover
Monthly commitment - RM50.88 (inc GST)

Umobile U28
50 minutes calls
200 sms
3gb internet
Monthly commitment - RM29.68 (inc GST)

I am not including Celcom Blue at this point since I have another line with Celcom First Basic 38, so that's that.

i am always around within these areas

Kajang
Bangi
Nilai
Putrajaya/Cyberjaya
Sepang/KLIA

Occasionally KL

So guys, help me here - Digi48 or Umobile28

What about 3g/4g Lte

a) Coverage
b) Network stability
c) Speed 3g and 4g LTE

Thank you

Attached thumbnail(s)

why compare these 2 plans? rm20 difference is quite a lot.

Prepaid

i see...
i didn't click to the left...that's why
thnx

If I were to add umobile P50 it would be this

5gb internet
50 minutes call + 50 minutes unused minutes
No SMS
Monthly commitment = RM53 (inc GST)


But to me since Umobile has this RM28 plan option, I would choose 28 but my concern is the coverage, the speed, the stability in the areas I mentioned in my first post. And as for Digi all the below RM48 plans has nothing to look for

I am having problem to understand prepaid packages from all providers. Seems nothing is actually cheap. I guess the maxis hotlink also has made some changes to their hotlink prepaid plans

Do you do a lot of music streaming and have an active spotify subscription ?

Since u got celcom 38. Then I suggest u just take digi48. Same combination with mine. I take Digi cause it go more call min . But I don need to the extend until unlimited . U need to understand ur usage .

Check the coverage at u.com.my .u can get the answer easily .or u can get a starter pack at 8.50 . do a call forwarding frm ur existing telco so that u won't miss any calls

U prepaid

Music streaming for radio both my celcom and maxis currently able to handle that no problem, so having around 6-8gb total sure help

Spotify subscription, are u saying the ones with maxis? - No

I guess I am having hard time deciding between digi and umobile due to these

Digi having extra 1gb
Having extra 50 minutes call
Possibility of having better coverage and speed (which my major factor in comparing these 2 providers)

While umobile
I am so concern about the coverage and the speed quality and the fact that I know in my house, it isn't 1 of the LTE coverage for umobile right now, I have been reading some cust posts on their fb page about not getting calls and stuff
But the difference with the monthly commitment compared to digi is about RM20+ with umobile
having only 1gb less, and 50 minutes less call time (which does not really a major concern to me)


i guess my niece and nephew going to need to assist me on this...they are after all using umobile, but i guess they having no problem in Bangi area
And while my brother is having Digi, so he needs to help too..haha

As others have suggested, nothing beats a real hands-on experience of the network quality by getting a prepaid starter pack to try out. DiGi best prepaid starter pack gives a 30 days try-out, U power prepaid is less at 10 days which should still suffice to try-out. Go ahead and address your concern first .....

Putting price aside, I think a DiGi line to compliment your existing Celcom line would be a good combo. I have both and usually both lines have me covered all the time in cases where one network have a certain blind spot or no coverage.

with your said areas, umobile is good enough. Their coverage getting better by day prolly due to more towers erected.

Yes. Same combo also for me.

I might give starter packs from both providers a shot then, i really need to experience both providers myself according to my style of usage

so Digi for both of you...i bet somebody must already have this kind of combo already, while me still celcom and maxis


umobile started out focusing outside of klang valley first I noticed years back during 3g time, Nilai had awesome 3g speed back then, but it seems like they are changing game for LTE

I have to experience this myself obviously
