I think there will still be users holding this old plan, just that Maxis doesn't offer it anymore.

Got this SMS:

RM0. Call Me Alert: Anda kini menikmati percubaan PERCUMA 30 hari. Dptkan SMS notifikasi utk tahu siapa menghubungi anda, bila rakan anda boleh dihubungi & hntr SMS automatik bila anda tdk dpt menerima panggilan. Info:hotlink.com.my/cma

Hotlink auto-activates the Call Me Alert trial and will start charging after the 30-day period?

Thank you, I've done the deactivation as I don't need this feature.

Just surprised that they actually auto-activate VAS(?). I'm wondering about those who miss such an SMS for whatever reason.

Can see screenshots on Page 6.

I've a #Hotlink WM with its 365 costing RM60 thereabout. Guess I should upgrade to this plan?

Yes, at least with the present situation, validity is the most important for me. I'm more of a data user who don't make many calls.

Ya, that's something to keep in mind. Thanks!

Is there any restriction or expiry date for the HotlinkMU reload cashback amount? Nothing of such seems to be indicated, just thought I'd check just in case.

Thank you. So long as it becomes part of the credit balance for me to use anytime, it's good.

Change of plan via the app has normally taken effect almost immediately. Give or take 3 minutes, as far as I can remember.

I believe this is the case:

If you look here, the RM0 is referring to MNP:

They're still showing the RM5 fee for change of plans:

I remember that Hotlink tablet plan that they ended by making it change to Hotlink FAST once validity expired? As a consolation of sorts, FAST has free 1GB for Saturday and Sunday.

Also cannot forget that time when they ended Validity 365 as well, because the dealer failed to help me activate 365 after I bought the SIM pack from him, saying that maybe system was down. Only when I got home and contacted Hotlink that I was told 365 no longer being offered already.

1) Internet Pass: RM6, RM10, RM20 (valid for 365)
These are Internet Passes so that your line can access the Internet. The validity of these passes are 365 days.

2) Others Pass: RM30 for 365 days sim active
In order to use those passes, your line will have to be active. RM30 is paid towards making your line active for 365 days.

topup RM5 every 2 months at the year end we can have enough RM30 to buy validity.
This is the alternate way to keep your line active. Each time you top up RM5, your line will stay active for the next 60 days. So if you top up RM5 every 2 months just to keep the line active, in a year you'll have RM5 x 6 = RM30 total. For the following year, you'll have the option to use this RM30 to pay towards 365 days' validity without having to make sure you keep track of topping up RM5 every 60 days in order to keep the line active.

Hope the above helps somewhat.

Presuming you pick this Internet pass:
2GB for 365 days at the cost of RM6.00 (Refer to Clause No. 19 in the link).

The Internet pass is valid for 365 days. But in order to use it, your line has to be active.

You can keep your line active for 365 days (in order to use the RM6 Internet plan) with either option:

1) Pay RM30 to get a 365 days SIM validity pass (Clause No. 14 in the link).
For this, your initial cost will be RM6 + RM30 = RM36.

2) Top up RM5 which will give you 60 days validity. Do this every 60 days which will be 6 times to get 365 days validity. (Clause No. 10 in the link)
This option will cost you RM6 for the Internet Pass, while your credit balance will have an accumulative total of RM30 (RM5 x 6 times) at the end of the year.
As suggested in the post before this, you can choose to use the RM30 credit balance the 2nd year to pay for a 365 days SIM validity pass.

Your cost will be lower with the 2nd option, but you'll have to keep track to ensure you top up every 60 days.

RM5 from eWallet, #Hotlink WM plan.

This post has been edited by RDoe: Nov 30 2021, 10:10 AM

No, that's the #Hotlink WM plan, different from the old Bagus WM. I changed to this from the FAST plan before Hotlink Internet 365 was available, and I needed Validity 365. It costs RM60 for this plan. But ya, I do intend to change it to Internet 365.

I'm not sure about the eWallet top-up, though, as I've never used it. Was just sharing what I noticed earlier.

I'd no choice back then, so I figured RM60 is better than nothing.

I'm trying to get the 365-day validity but cannot find the option. Can anyone share the steps, please? Hope it's not removed already.

How did you get to this page? Do you have the steps, please?

I get pages of Menus from *100#

EDIT: OK, I found it at last. Thanks so much!

Got it. Thank you very much.

Thanks so much. I overlooked and couldn't find in the app. The screenshots helped.

Thank you.
