I don't think they will tell you...as the prepaid number are sent to dealers. My friend once told me it takes like 6months for it to be recycled

Even if they tell me, I don't think they will know which dealer to get the number. sad.gif

It depends on the number.. mine had to sign on a 188 plan to get it back

Wow! That's out of my budget really... Last time I thought they are able to reactivate the number?

im not sure if they could, but i think that if your number is special then it will drop into the highest postpaid plan. i have another which requires me to sign a 98 plan, although it only expired less than 24hours.

Even if rm98 per month is too expensive. sad.gif Can Hotlink Flex get the number back?

just to update:

I can get the number back HOWEVER under postpaid service and needs to locks with MaxisONE plan 158 for 24 months.

that's so much ridiculous I must say!

Is there any other way I could get the number back with only prepaid plan? RM158 X 24 = RM 3792 not including tax! sad.gif

When YB Gobind Singh look into broadband, I think he would also need to look into such matter!
