But you dont get the daily free 1GB high speed internet anymore right?

This.. the 3.0 has 1gb 1hr free daily and 1gb/day for weekend for 4G.
Can tether also.
I’m still on the 3.0 and thinking it’s still more worth overall.

you are referring to the previous red plan? of course no more. this is a brand new plan.

however, with the 'unlimited' internet, why bother about the 1gb high speed internet anymore?
urs is hotlink fast i supposed?

it comes with 2GB weekend data permanently rite? did not know it comes with free 1GB data daily also.
but the bad part about hotlink fast the legacy plan is that it does not come with basic Internet. so if you dun have a internet pass, it will incur pay per use data charge and all your credit balance can be gone in no time.

but the free 2GB weekend data forver is indeed attractive.

however, with the new unlimited plan, i find it more worth it even compare to hotlink fast.
although hotlink fast comes 2GB weekend free, you still need to top up a min rm30 monthly to keep the line active and likely you need to activate a monthly pass for the usage beyond that. you need to pay for calls also.

rm35 fixed price then without the need to worry about extra charges for calls or data, that's the best deal.
somemore now top up has offer, rm30 top up gets extra rm5, just nice to activate rm35 3Mbps unlimited internet pass.

rm30 per month nett price to pay. dun think the old plan can fight even.

Hmm i believe there is some basic internet at very slow speed.. encountered it few times when quota finished but didn’t realise until started surfing web. Whatsapp worked for messages..

Yeah fast 3.0.. old plan. No there is no ppu charges. The internet just become real slow.
U can buy add ons for calls if call a lot for cheaper cost but it takes monitoring which could be a hassle. I hardly do voice calls.. mostly on WhatsApp for calling so doesn’t matter for me.

True.. cost wise I typically top up around rm50 and buy the monthLy rm35 package. I get the rm3/week add on for music unlimited. 1gb is free daily for 1hr and I can upsize to 2gb for 2hrs at rm1 daily. So i can like use this as a booster daily if needed.

One needs to realise the New plan speed is capped.. 3 or 6mps max. As a reference my uncapped speed is ranging 50mpbs to 100mpbs in my area. Whether 3-6mbps is enough depends on your usecase. For me I find that speed quite limiting couple with the tethering limitation.

There are MU deals for the 3.0 that changes daily and some are really good. Since mco started till last week I had been buying at only rm3.50 per week data for 250mb+20gb.... thats 20.25gb at rm3.50!.. And I didn’t have to buy the rm35 package which saved me quite a bundle.. no free daily 1gb thou which is fine. This week the deals on MU are not good.. will see if it improves.
