QUOTE(Chrono-Trigger @ Apr 11 2016, 07:12 PM) even if data roaming is off, your phone still handshake with the roaming telco. umobile postpaid now gives 50mb for data roaming, so you are safe for now.I tried to use u mobile once at Brunei , cellular data on, roaming off - the iPhone data usage will register "data roaming :few kB) but u mobile didn't charge me a single sen for it. I think this is just a confirguration issue on the celcom network.  once i was using umobile prepaid abroad, topped up my card online, then turned on my phone to check balance.... and then shocked to find all my credit gone!

QUOTE(UN1T3D @ Apr 12 2016, 08:38 AM) Rather unfortunate that umobile no longer offers free 50mb data roaming for prepaid nor postpaid ..... oh yes...checked website again and it's gone now..easy money for telco...umobile finally gotten smarter eh? QUOTE(victorywp @ Apr 12 2016, 03:41 AM) so that time you managed to get all your credits back? no, that time i thought it was a bug with my phone...until i got hit again with another phone and with another telco's prepaid.

QUOTE(UN1T3D @ Apr 12 2016, 08:19 AM) Also no data roaming on Altel, BuzzMe, Friendi, Merchantrade, Tron and XOX ..... some of them have no roaming at all..when roaming, most people want voice and sms, but data is definitely not desirable. |

QUOTE(atrocitines @ Jun 4 2016, 01:03 AM) Hi guys,i wanna buy sth in europe using my credit card but unable to complete transaction because i do not have the means to receive the msos code because i use a local sim card. Once i switch back to celcom sim, connect to their partner network and receive the msos code sms, will i be charged? you might get a rm38 charge like what many people have complained here.take an old school 2g phone with you and put your celcom sim card into it?
