How to change to prepaid? Need to buy new sim or just change plan online? Coming from maxis postpaid

We can change directly from Maxis Postpaid to Hotlink Postpaid, just call 123 and tell them. No need go thru prepaid.

Here's abit of help as i personally planning to downgrade my current Maxis Postpaid 128 package to Hotlink Postpaid since i don't require 60GB data a month and normally use a maximum of 4GB and below. These are the steps that i gathered from the service counter assistant at the Maxis center at Sunway Pyramid:

1) Go to maxis center to send request
2) Request service counter to convert current Maxis postpaid line to hotlink prepaid
3) Condition: need to use hotlink prepaid for min 1 month
4) After 1 month has elpased you can then upgrade the Hotlink prepaid account to a Hotlink postpaid package of your choice

Note:

- process takes 3 - 5 days (walk in)
- each hotlink postpaid account will be managed individually
- hotlink prepaid limits 2 x lines to one I.C
- cannot link 3 x accounts under one account to be paid monthly

I'll be making the switch next week over the counter.

wow good for you....maxis called me up last month to offer hotlink prepaid to hotlink postpaid. But dont have the extra 5GB, sadness

is there a internet speed difference between hotlink postpaid vs maxis postpaid?  been wanting to switch over to hotlink postpaid since majority of the time WFH, no point using maxis postpaid at all

how much difference?

wow that's quite a lot
