I just on the roaming when oversea, 38 per days but just more convenience

last year i went europe for 3 weeks and i bought this:

https://hello1010.my/uk-europe-three-aio

there are plenty of local sim which is very cheap as compare to data roaming provided by our telco

There are a few wifi rental services, where you can collect from local airport prior departure.
The rate is quite attractive.
The only disadvantage, you need to rent throughout your journey, you can't buy for only 3 days (ie, out of your 7 days journey)

If you go for long (more than a week), there are a few cheaper options.
If you only go for 3-5 days, minus transit days, you rather turn on telco data roaming.

of cos few days i can just use Umobile RM10/day for those applicable countries, but out of those specific countries, i will bet most of us will survey which method is the lowest cost by surveying here and there before travelling

Hmm... RM10/day is a good rate, not aware umobile is having this, I will not hesitate to turn it on.
Nevertheless, I do hope more telco will offer cheaper rate and extend to more countries.

yea, there are always advantages and drawbacks, maybe they should allow preference for users to choose which comfortable with.

doubt how they consider that criteria, if previously have installed once but currently do not have the app installed

Do we get charged sms roaming charges if we get sms notification from bank when we are overseas?

i remember last time digi got charge but now all telco cannot charge when receiving SMS overseas

no charge for receiving when roaming

i go and buy digi prepaid. RM25 for 3 days - 30 min call & 2GB.

yala, all depends on your trip, if 1-2 days then umobile is enough, i think celcom also got something very nice for 1 week

OT from mbb 2cc,

you all can go search yoodo. they offer good rate for roaming, RM10~20/day depending countries.

Should stop discussing about roaming here...later moderator comes shot one by one.

Thanks for the info
Conclusion, best to stick with SMS, no need for us to have OT discussion

yeah i regret installing the app now. I rarely use it.
Anyone know the process to "remove" the app use from Maybank records so that I can continue getting sms.

why thou, I would say Maybank app is the best banking app i ever used

No. It is free.


Need to spend additional money for the sim card.

Me too. I downloaded the app before but uninstalled it few months ago. Worry that cannot get Sms transaction. 🙄

Normally no charge for receiving, but will charge for sending. Better check with your telco.

Hi guys, just wanna ask something, my card was approved on 4 July, only received and activate it on 17 July. My first swipe was yesterday as well, but transaction is yet to reflected in my maybank2u. How many days before i can see the transaction in my account?

When should i expect my account statement? Will I receive it by the end of this month and deadline of payment at the end of next month or how?

Sorry, kinda new to this, this is my first cc.

it seems you already get the answer.... and you also having that FCB card correct?
