As for the upfront payment, as we will have to pay it plus gst, will they include the gst amount to be deducted in our monthly bills?

I am currently on the RedOne RM48 plan (10GB high speed data, 200 mins local calls) so if I get the IP-X at retail price, this would be my TCO for 24 months.

RM48 x 24 months + gst = RM1221.12
iphone-x 256gb + gst = RM5899.00
total cost of ownership = RM7120.12

RM98 x 24 + gst = RM2493.12
iphone-x 256gb + gst = RM4534.68 (advance payment + gst = RM742.00 / total upfront + gst = RM5276.70)
total cost of ownership = RM7027.80

Advantages = upgrade of data plan to 20GB wkday + 20GB wkend and unlimited local calls

Hope my calculations are more or less correct. My math is not what it was wink.gif

While your math is correct, it is hard to make decision base on cost of ownership alone. Because together with that cost, it comes with how many free data and free calls you'll receive each months...so...

Which mean doesn't matter if i buy with easyphone or paying upfront device+plan, i will get charged RM50 protection plan too right?
Thanks.

Device protection plan only applies on EasyPhone subscribers, and the RM50 is charged monthly.

For device bundle, it’s device+RM700 upfront payment+GST. The RM700 will be returned in terms of monthly bill rebate.

You forget one thing. The RM700 upfront payment will be returned as monthly bill rebate, which means if you are going for Gold Plus plan (RM98 monthly), the RM700 will be your first SEVEN months bill payment (correct me if I am wrong). That means you dont have to pay bills for the first seven months. You save another RM700 actually.

I learnt from the another thread that midnight delivery actually means that you can go their store to pick up the phone at 24 Nov midnight? Unless you wanna sleep at night and collect it by yourself the next morning?

For the upfront payment RM700 + 42(GST), will the gst portion be included in the monthly bill rebate?

i actually think it is quite okay la, only for iPhone diehard fans like me LOL
But people still need to work the next day, even i will reject maybe, they should arrange it like Friday night
Not everyone can accept things like this, as some may sleep earlier or what

I did ask the personnel there, he said yes RM742(which include the portion of GST) will be deducted, but of course he mentioned it verbally only. Forgot to mention i need to pay booking fee of RM318 (including gst) which they will deduct from the final amount i need to pay on when i pick up the phone on the 24th, for this they also mentioned they will deduct RM318 which include gst from the final amount.

Adding 2493.12 and 4534.68 gets 7027.80 blush.gif

What i meant is, the RM700 upfront payment will actually be used to pay your bill, so even the plan for two years=RM98X24+GST=RM2393.12, you should deduct another RM700+ out of it, which makes it RM2393.12-RM700=RM 1693.12+-

They didnt collect the upfront payment without reason, it is to prevent those who buy phone cheaper then run away without paying bills. But for those who pay bills promptly, they can get the rebate (RM700) in bills la😁
