But "chargeable usage" can also mean SMS/Call/Data that are going to deduct your add-on allowance.
For example, if you call a toll-free number, then that is not a chargeable usage call, since its free and will not deduct add-on.

So,
Call Toll-free numbers = non chargeable.
Call your girlfren number = chargeable and will deduct add-on.

Right?

I think they just want you to top up once if you want to keep the number. What you do with the rm10 after will be up to you. Say instead of buy the rm10 addon, you make call or sms then it become chargeable usage right? Also the 1 gig basic data looks reasonable if you just want to whatsapp, whatsapp use very little data.

1. ordered the sim card on sunday 21/1. pickup simcard at tmpoint wednesday 24/1.
2. i do not have to send any sms to unifi to trigger porting process because i picked up the sim card from tmpoint. the system already automatically start the porting process during pickup.


it is troublesome to wait for 3 days.. without sms verification, cannot login the app and topup. cannot make call after the free 10 minutes given finish..

To my understanding, you cannot call or SMS without the call plan. No PPU rate for call, SMS and data. All come in plan quota.

thats why, this is a trick

I think can pay as you use for calls/sms. If top up then got credit can use to make calls without addon. Now it has no credit.

Dirty tactics I would say.

so we have to send a message to international number every 89 days?
any number suggest? 😆

i see. after u ordered the simcard on sunday, they ask you to pickup the sim on wednesday or before? on your issue, did you try the live chat?

yes, the previous FAQ did mention you cannot make calls etc without plan. but can't see it anymore, maybe they will come up with the ppu rate

just got to wait for it. or worst case scenario, call/sms overseas number?

i worry that they will change the wording to "reload to stay active " at a later date.

does making call to oversea consider as chargeable activities?

When my number finish the 10 sms, I top up RM10 then try and see. 😆 If true this is game changer. Other telcos will curse tm lol.

Even need reload RM40 per year not bad right. Those 365 validity also cost RM30+, this one the reload you can use. Of course coverage another matter lah.

wait for ur reply..
personally feel like tm wont do that.

if you got 5 sims which will cost you rm200 per year.

Why you want to maintain 5 sim.... just keep one lah.

actually this is similar to friendi mobile (riding on umobile) previously. add on validity 90 days on each usage - but unable to sustain that plan. and name not as good as TM la. lol.

true that. i can forsee a lot of abuse initially.

So why is there a pay per use tab in history section in the app?

do we need to reload to stay active? since usage can also extend validity, so as long as we call/sms 1 time can extend another 90 days, no?

Kiasu, want to have 5 x 20GB freebie
