Ah yes, now that you refreshed my memory about WiMax, reminds me of the-then failed P1 then rebranded as Webe which is now Unifi Mobile.
I checked that Unifi is using 850MHz FDD-LTE (Band 5), 2300MHz TD-LTE (Band40) and TD-LTE 2600 MHz (Band 38)
Yup I remember now when Yes 4g first started off charging people per MB, which was a disaster in the end.
Reason being I'm putting Yes 4G for consideration..is because I'm sick and tired of Umobile's overcrowded and under capacity network , despite their claims they are upgrading to 4G. As I am typing now, sometimes I cant even open a simple Google web-page at night. Already filed a complain numerous times, only god knows if they are aware or not.
And coincidentally I have a Galaxy A5 which supports TDD band so thats a good thing.
Its a matter of time before one day - 4G will be buried and replaced with 5G (But of course not too soon future) .
So I'm staying away from the Umobile crowd. And considering trying out with a Yes 4G prepaid.
Thank you very much Josh for the history lesson
Both P1 and Yes 4G are known as WiMax operator in the past, but nowadays you don't hear them mention about WiMax anymore... Because it's LTE world now, and soon, 5G. I checked that Unifi is using 850MHz FDD-LTE (Band 5), 2300MHz TD-LTE (Band40) and TD-LTE 2600 MHz (Band 38)

Ring any bells?

Yes 4G LTE still remain the same RM0.09/sen per min and SMS rates to all networks even till today. A tradition that doesn't change for Yes.

Consider file a complaint to MCMC here: https://aduan.skmm.gov.my/Although not everywhere, U Mobile is known for its congested and appears-lack-of-bandwidth network. It is worth noting that recently U Mobile invest billions in trying their very best to improve and expand its coverage nationwide, but to be able to deliver good network performance that is in par with Maxis, Celcom and Digi, it is still a long way to go. Have you tried other telcos like Maxis, Celcom and Digi? Are those telcos doesn't perform the way you expected?
Well you can try Yes 4G by purchasing their prepaid SIM pack. Do test the network aggressively (e.g. speed tests) to see if it meets your expectation in areas where you prioritise to have a fast and stable network.

Which Samsung Galaxy A5 model are you referring to?The first version of Galaxy A5 (2014/15) does not support 2300/2600MHz TDD LTE.
A5 (2016) supports 2300MHz TDD LTE Band 40
A5 (2017) supports both 2300/2600MHz TDD Band 40 and 38.
...and compare between Yes 4G LTE's 2300/2600Mhz, 2600MHz TDD Band 38 usually perform better in some areas in terms of its network and coverage (from what I observe, may not be applicable to you).
Anyhow, all Galaxy A5 phones models do supports 800MHz Band 20, so you can use Yes 4G network at least on 800MHz band if your phone or area doesn't have 2300/2600MHz.
