haven’t tried the unlimited rm59 unifi mobile yet. So not sure. But likely will not subscribe it anymore since I dun calls or sms so yes 4G is good for me for pure data usage.

Yeah. Indeed. This is the second chance I have given. Indeed below expectation. I am more impressed with yes 4G even I use it for first time. And I am surprised with what they offer.

vomit blood seriously. At place was stuck with 4G 1 bar, cannot surf at all. Since it is stuck at 1 bar, it also does not switch to 3G or so automatically. End up need to manually set to 3G just to surf. wtf.

At least for me.

Just now switched to 3G at the place with bad coverage of 4G can surf. Then come out to more open air place, 3G got strong coverage then cannot surf at all. Need to switch back to 4G in order to surf.

Really bad experience for such inconsistent internet connection even at day 2 of usage only.

Lucky it is prepaid and not postpaid, can terminate or MNP anytime easily. I think for postpaid, unless one is signing for maxis or Celcom which are known to be reliable, others better stick to prepaid for trial and error first. This is why I am hesitate to try the unifi mobile rm59 unlimited plan too since it has 12-month contract.

I think for anyone who is coming from maxis or Celcom and to switch to use u mobile will be hard to swallow the inconsistent connections.

Worse than maxis or Celcom, this one of course needless to say as this is a known fact. That’s why I said for anyone who is currently on maxis or Celcom should not jump ship to u mobile as it is a big downgrade. This is my point based on my own user experience.

Given the fact that u mobile cannot even compete with yes 4G. It may not be true that it is anything better than unifi mobile too. I have yet to use the unifi mobile unlimited rm59 plan but I did use their prepaid bebas plan before, the coverage is not too bad, somehow close to or similar to yes 4G in terms of coverage. I highly doubt that it will be worse than u mobile.

I understand that ur personal user experience and u use it for fixed line broadband replacement and it is good for u then. however do note that majority of people are having unifi or other fibre broadband at home too and what we need is on the go access. if a mobile broadband is only available or good at fixed points, it has no different as fixed line broadband only.

at least my experience is bad on u mobile for sure, whether is it good for others, it is up to them to experience and what I did is to share my personal experience, u do not need to defend or get affected too.

For those who are good on u mobile, just continue. For those like me who have experienced the bad, can just move on. At least I already have a certainly better option which I have tested.

Dun think it is easy to get blacklisted unless u really have good speed at ur ‘fixed’ locations. At least for most I believe it is not easy to exceed such much in order to get blacklisted. Even it is, it is a good thing since u really are the lucky one to get such ‘good’ speed.

More than 10 years or 15 years ago I used it before and that time I signed up a 20GB data plan which I could not even use more than 5GB monthly becos the coverage and speed were simply too fxxk up. Then I switched to maxis and Celcom since then.

Then now I saw that they have cheap rm30 unlimited like yes 4G so decided to give it a try. However, the speed and coverage again disappointed me which I am now streaming the YouTube video at 140p inside one of the oldest and popular shopping mall. Even web surfing is struggling very jialat. To me, it is totally not acceptable which I had zero with yes 4G with 720p and 1080p video streaming within the same places I am using u mobile now for the past one month (I also first time used yes 4G). I know they limit video streaming to 480p, problem is I am now having 140p and even just light web surfing for Lowyat forum is also so difficult.

Think I will just forgo the rm40 spent on this u mobile Sim pack and GX30 add-on and switch back to yes 4G immediately tmr.

Rather not to vomit blood than continue to use it.

Lucky that it is prepaid and not postpaid.

Even 140p it is spinning non-stop and not even loading... faint.

Now I really learn the meaning of “ if it ain't broke, don't fix it”.

I see. Glad to know that I am not the only one.

yeah. Indeed. I give up on u mobile totally no matter how cheap it is.

To be fair. Rm30 for unlimited data, only yes 4G can fight. The rest without unlimited data is not able to fight even the price is low.

rm30 for unlimited data is indeed the best value for money price plan. just too bad, it is not up to standard.

Imagine if maxis or Celcom have such plan even with capped speed like u mobile or yes 4G now it will immediately KO them. 😜

Like I said, I am using it in city and in a oldest and popular shopping mall and that’s the result. so it is not even an excuse for not having the coverage and speed. As I said, all the blind spots for u mobile I encountered are not at rural areas, as I have no issues with any other telcos and even a not major telco yes 4G has better coverage than u mobile and I strongly believe unifi mobile will be better at all these places too. So it is simply no excuses for u mobile to have such poor coverage and speed as it is the only telco that cmi at these places.

If u go to u mobile Facebook on those posts they advertise their plans, 9 out of 10 posts are complaining about the bad coverage and speed. So it is not an isolated case.

And be sensible too, your personal experience cannot represent the rest of people too.

Yeah bro, I felt u becos I did the exactly the same thing as u, I bought a new starter pack and I did the MNP. The number is not my main number though, just a quite nice number I got from yoodo. And I also spent rm30 extra on the GX30. Totally wasted of money. Day 1 I already vomited blood.

It has good network indeed at certain places like opened air etc. but it is totally inconsistent experience which most of the time cmi.

yeah. exactly.

I MNP just to get the rm25 promo price for 6 months (if MNP online, get rm5 rebate for 6 months).

but anyway, it is prepaid, i can MNP out again.

To get such "improvement" award, you just need to start low.

It is like they have 1% coverage now. Increased to 2%. Then it is already 100% increase in coverage.

yeah. they do have faithful and loyal customers here including some of our fellow bros here.

other than youtube, other video streaming platform is all capped.

i used to watch the live streaming on gameplays by hosts on those china streaming platform. all cannot watch at all.

All the restrictions u said I do not experience with yes 4G and it is running at 1080p. Conclusion: I quit u mobile forever. Enough said. I just want to stop this suffering.

nice to see but not good to use plans. 😜

THe uncapped is a crap. Before I port out from the GX30, I did use the remaining credit to buy the speed booster add-on which it supposes to make it uncapped speed. But my experience is totally no different becos the network is bad by itself.

Seriously I dun think the new plans are going to make a single difference in user experience. Totally gimmicks.

Oh got such thing? but change plan no need to change SIM card rite?

oh? this is really strange approach. so as i said, it is a gimmick. haha.

marketing gimmick only works for not knowledgeable consumers.

obviously, anyone that comes to the forum are unlikely to become one of them.

becos i never listen to what salesperson said no matter what i buy, becos i know more than them. hahaha.
