QUOTE(chkwong @ Feb 12 2025, 08:33 AM) Yep, that's right. Get a prepaid sim and test it out. Also, different phone different signal too. You may ask someone that they get great coverage but could be very different on yours. So, prepaid sim is the better way. No fuss, no guesswork. Just registered for and activated a prepaid esim today. It was so easy to do and I got my umobile line up and running within 15 mins. Gonna test it for 2-4 weeks and decide if it's good enough for my needs. |

QUOTE(aspire2oo6 @ Mar 2 2025, 10:23 PM) It’s nothing special it’s just like a physical sim without a physical sim only cons you can’t switch to another phone if any issue with your phone I chose eSIM because my main line is hotlink and already occupies my iPhone sim slot. Testing umobile for a month to see if it’s ok for my needs. |

QUOTE(Piers @ Mar 3 2025, 12:39 PM) great info, guess umobile is suitable for backup line then 👍 Yeah, good as backup if the slightly poorer coverage is backed by lower price. |

QUOTE(Piers @ Mar 3 2025, 12:45 PM) the U Prepaid Borneo rm15 not bad RM15 for just 10GB of 4G/5G data since I’m not in Borneo. Am testing this plan now. My Hotlink Sabah plan better. RM18 for 60GB of 4G/5G outside Sabah. This post has been edited by kmrdeva: Mar 3 2025, 01:15 PM |

QUOTE(ahlong0180 @ Mar 10 2025, 03:35 PM) Update to Borneo Plan: Promo price ends, costs RM20/mth. 4G quota for Srwk/Sbh upgraded. So, outside-Borneo users will basically revert to rm20 for 10GB? |

QUOTE(Gold_Moderator @ Mar 19 2025, 11:09 AM) hotlink pull back this plan d. Yeah just noticed that. I’ll likely stay and use hotlinkMU packs for data.Umobile is cheaper for me but not cheap enough to make it worth the lesser network coverage. Piers liked this post

QUOTE(Gold_Moderator @ Mar 19 2025, 02:05 PM) cheap roaming is the reason i keep um I spend more time in MY than overseas so local network reception is more important to me. My 30 day evaluation of umobile will end in 3 days. Going back to hotlink. |

QUOTE(Gold_Moderator @ Mar 25 2025, 12:54 PM) And one thing I came across, umobile data running out quite slow. Didn’t notice this, the rm20 40gb hotlinkMU plan without calls is more than enough for me.Compare to my hotlink. |
