Digi new tactics for Best prepaid... (try to focus only on BEST prepaid in this thread)
I noticed that digi Best prepaid are now separated in many kind of versions, each version come with some minor differences.

I suspect, this is their tactics to separate their users into groups, so that everyone may have varied experiences, such as:
some get SLL@38, some get SLL@68, some dont get SLL.
some has Free internet, some dont get...

Could we all together to find out their differences?

Besides, I also noticed digi new strategy of giving out "reward" in a less genuine manner,
Yes, they still give out 'reward/promotion',
but every 'reward/promotion' has an expire/validity date,
you have to redeem it on time, finish it on time or you just cannot enjoy the so call 'reward/promotion'...

Here are what I know so far (correct me if I am wrong)

Digi Prepaid Best (latest, also known as Best Prepaid 2016)

12 sen per sms
NO Super long life

If you have no idea with how fast 64kbps (Free basic internet) could work, here is an experience shared by raynman:
Works perfectly OK for Whatsapp (can download photos but avoid videos), Waze, online banking like Maybank2U and CIMBClicks, MyDigi app, TNB and Syabas apps.
Not so good but still workable..... Google Maps, UBER, Grabcar, Opera Mini.
Totally unusable..... graphic-intensive apps like Lazada, GEMFive, online news portals with lots of photos. (not to mention, video).

For super long life:


UPDATED on 31 JUL 2017

P/S: Birthday Bonus and SLL are two famous and popular features offer by Digi for years, but they slowly taking them down,
I think Digi are seeking a new way to maneuver their market, yes, we are in the era of internet!

For internetplus, please noted,
Local calls are split 50% for call to Digi numbers and 50% for calls to other networks and fixed lines, except video calls, special numbers, toll-free 1-300 number and 121 numbers.
Which mean, if there are 300 minutes to call, 150 mins will be given for Local calls and another 150 mins for calls to other networks

Im using smart prepaid. Sad. I missing my old digi plan.

i just port-in, the plan called digi new best prepaid v2, no free 1.5gb internet
no super long life
free 500mb basic internet
20 best kawan
10 sen/30 second to all network,

the 1.5gb only come after you make a RM30 reload,
super long life only can be subscribe when you have credit above RM68,
try again and see?

New Best V2 confirmed have SLL and Free 1.5gb after reload RM30 with 1 topup code.

now only smart prepaids get free data with reload.

Oo mine New Best V1 MNP and i got the 1.5gb free data when i reload

these temporary promotion techniques really deterring ppl from jumping ship

once everyone has moved to smarts and happily reloading.....
they might quietly make another switch...free data for best but not for smart )

welcome to digi!

Digi New Best Prepaid V2
So I pay 68 per year to keep it active and also get basic internet ?

Yes

probably persuading people to make a switch to postpaid plan now

Update :
Confirmed. Digi New Best V1 MNP no more enjoy free 1.5GB free internet even after reload RM30 and keyin *888*1#

I reload this morning and no msg about the free quota and i keep on use the ussd code to request but fail.

Aiiyo Digi..
