question:

1. which 4 apps u guys picked?

2. which torrent app can be added?

3. does it come with call or sms credit? if not how much the rate?

4. if tether to other device, would it still be free for the 4 apps u choose?
*
1. This one depends on you. For me Spotify is a must, twitter as well. The remaining 2 depends. Instagram,Facebook etc

2. None as far as I know

3. No. Can purchase unlimited calls for rm6 a month. SMS is 15 Sen each.

4. No. Only for use on the phone.

Guys, I wanna ask, if i port out from ookyo, i must have the sim working to reply the SMS right?

Okay heres the story. I lost my phone last last week, thats 24/4/2019. So my Ookyo sim card went hilang as well.Then immediately, I request a new sim, but they took a week plus to deliver to me. Once i got my hand on the sim, it is not activated/spoil/ or god knows what shit happened, the sim wont work. IT's been hell for me, cause it's been 2 weeks without my cell network.
P.S: Their cs is bs-ing with me.

TLDR: Can i port out of ookyo given the sim they gave me is spoil/their cause? What i can do? I need my working number asap.
*
I have already tried to port out from Ookyo since a month ago but still failed. Given all kind of nonsense reason. Now I complaint to CFM and MCMC.
Maxis always like that. When wanted to port out it will give you a lot of trouble. Not like other telco within 48 hour sure can port out.

I wanted to port out because the way they handle things a bit like a scam.
Buying a product from nowhere, no company name and no enquiry line.........Is this a valid business?

Fair enough, each user different. Am interested to know though which telco you'd consider superior? If you're mentioning torrenting I can only assume that the only telco you can use currently is webe/Unifi mobile's unlimited plan.

My primary purpose is to get on Maxis network for cheapest price. RM30 (or RM36 if you add in unlimited voice calls, which I do) gives 8GB data. By comparison Hotlink Flex gives 5GB at RM40 (unlimited voice + sms). This isn't even including the free use apps (which you have to pay RM5/10 for on Hotlink Flex). And of course Maxis Postpaid even higher price.

I'm a refugee from U and Digi, both of which I used for years (in that order) until congestion made it impossible to continue.

well since you asked...

ookyo strategy is set to fail as it's has the obvious "neither here nor there" characteris sandwiched between um's full unlimited and yoodo's customization.

It's never an unlimited concept if ookyo only limit it to 4 apps, this will be the failure by showing the self conflicting hypocrisy. They must have not understanding that average users uses at least 10 apps.

Anyone who wants unlimited would go for UM, whereas anyone who want to control their usage would end up with yoodo. It's not about superiority, it's about whether it fits the needs well.

Hope i have answered you, and there you have it, free business analytics for ookyo.

Umobile has bad coverage at certain areas, and many of the cheaper plans like GX30 and GX50 have a speed cap. On the other hand, ookyo offers the stability of the maxis line /coverage and also offers much faster speeds without the speed cap. Not to mention the unlimited talk time with the RM6 add on.

So Ookyo is definitely a viable option for many people.

Actually you're ignoring the most important (IMO) factor which is the telco network.

Assuming we discard that (which is ridiculous, but since you're taking that premise...), then let's compare the plans you're discussing.

U mobile GX30 is very good value. And capped at 3Mbps. For all usage, whatever app it is. Ookyo is capped only for the unlimited apps specifically, and even for the unlimited apps you can just turn off the VPN if you want full speed for whatever reason.

Your statement about 'average user uses at least 10 apps' is nonsense as well. Not all apps are created equal data consumption wise (e.g. Whatsapp even under heavy chat usage is unlikely to be 'worth' making unlimited unless you're the sort who sends and receives videos and images very often), so just the fact that someone is using an app doesn't indicate that its data consumption is significant. Waze users for example, my regular 30km drive uses about 6MB of data per trip.

Yoodo on the other hand is quite a bit pricier for significant amount of data usage. To start off with, a basic no data plan (for a primary line) MUST cost RM8 a month, since almost no handphone user can live for a month without making a single call or sending a single SMS. Add on RM25 for 5GB data and you're getting quite a bit less than what ookyo offers (at roughly equivalent prices). Add on RM35 for 10GB and you get about what ookyo offers (unlikely you'd use less than 2GB on your 4 unlimited apps) for a pricier fee.

Basically you seem to ignore the 8GB data ookyo offers besides the unlimited apps. Moderate users will find that's all they need (in fact earlier on in the thread we have iphone users who can't use unlimited asking about the plan since RM30 for 8GB is quite a steal).

It's not about superiority, as you say. It's about fitting needs well, and consumer needs go beyond just "I want unlimited everything" and "I want to control my usage".

u are either go for unlimited user or customization, ookyo would not be appealing to both group as there are better option as clearly mentioned.

unlimited user will not be demanding for uncapped speed, while customization user would not demand for high quota plan.

Again Ookyo is a "neither here nor there" kind of plan, like a jack of all trade but master of none.

For now Ookyo fits me very well. I tried GX30 for only 2 weeks before getting rid of it. Couldn't even watch youtube on 480p without buffering. Then i tried Yoodoo which is damn fast but pricey. Ookyo on the other hand gives me unlimited data for 4 apps plus 8gb for others. Thank goodness for ookyo. 😍

Anyone using Huawei phone and having issue with their unlimited app? Mine will keep running at full speed and consuming normal quota despite VPN is on and there's the "OK" thingy at Ookyo App. Trying to resolve with customer service but their response is utterly useless 😅😅

Must be nice to have everything black and white. Either this or that, nothing in between.

Just like years ago when you can either choose plans with data and pay per use for calls/sms or choose plans with bundled call/sms but pay per use for data. Because of course people only use data or only use call/sms right? Where got anyone want a plan with both, jack of all trade but master of none whistling.gif

Please stop relying on their issue ticket. It's just a bunch of responses that are copy and paste without understanding the context at all.

I've used umobile, digi, celcom and maxis. Umobile is the worse. Give unlimited but line damn bad. Really useless telco.
