If calling out to special numbers like 1300/1700/1800/TNB/insurance/assurance/etc is important, then, automatically Yoodo RM12/4,000 minutes per month is the winner...

P1 webe #BEBAS is also good but 200 minutes for RM20 may get easily finished if calling out are wasted at 1300/1700/1800 as we are usually put on-hold "indefinitely" by the other ends...

Other option is BeONE redCALL Kuasa 10 for RM10/1,000 minutes monthly but excluding special number prefixes...

1300/1700/1800/TNB/insurance/assurance/ etc are Free call via Yoodo?

Yes becoz those numbers will be using the 4,000 minutes quota and not the credit/relod/topup balance...

calling to 1-300 is free, right?

Technically not free. But Yoodo will deduct from the 4,000 minutes quota.

Eg:
The calling rate for that 1300 special number is RM1.00 per minute.

If we call for 60 minutes under Yoodo, the balance in the monthly quota becums:
= 4,000 min - 60 min
= 3,940 min (no deductions from credit/reload/topup balance)

If we call for 60 minutes using other "unlimited" telco plans:
= 60 min x RM1.00
= RM60.00 (deducted from credit/reload/topup balance)

So, clearly, by investing on RM12/month (including 6% "tipu" tax), the savings is a lot for calling out to special numbers.

I am a little bit unclear about Yoodo:

Can I just subscribe to the 4,000 mins plan @ rm12/mo without anything else? That means each month I spend only rm12 per month for 4,000 mins every month. What about the validity. And is there any basic free internet? Does each purchase of 4,000 mins get you 30 days airtime credit? What's the catch here? I wished they offered a annual prepaid plan for rm144 for 12 months validity and each month you get 4,000 minutes. So much trouble remembering the date and remembering to top up and subscribe...

A1) Can only subscribe to RM12/4,000 minutes for 30 days. No need to buy anything else.

A2) Yoodo does not have validity. All reload is usable as and when needed. But, the Grace Period is 60 days. if no subscription is active.

A3) 64kbps free Basic Internet if for data quota only. If we subscribe only to RM12/4,000 minutes for 30 days, the rest of the 30 days does not have any Internet at all.

A4) There is no "detrimental" hidden agenda. The major issue with Yoodo is after-sales support. There is no hotline number. All supports is using keyboard only. So, if we email them for assistance, we have to wait and wait and wait and wait and wait for their reply thru email as well.

A5) No need to reload RM144. The default setting for each plan is Auto Renewal. But the drawback is any excess usage will be auto-charge to our credit card linked to the Yoodo account. We might get Bill Shock if not careful.

For A4, it is faster to use their online chat in the website, which is open daily.

Me anti-keyboard after sales support. Things that can be solved within 5 minutes thru calls only. Using keyboard for communication is waste of time.

Calls = 5 minutes
Keyboard = 15 minutes. Need to wait the CS to Type...type...type...type...type... lepas tuh, got disconnected... kena type all over again....LOL...

Whoa, it appears if you sign up for the the call plan, say rm12 for 4,000 mins, you will have no data at all, not even basic data. Am I correct?

Yes. The 64kbps is only when the purchased data quota has depleted. So, RM12 + RM12 (2GB quota) is the lowest if need that 64kbps Basic Internet quota.

Alternatively,

SIM1 = P1 webe #BEBAS = RM10 starter pack

SIM2 = Yoodo = RM12

So if one were to follow the example above of sim1 and sim2, the unifi bebas even 1 or 2 gig data will set you back additional rm13 to rm15. If some data is a must, then the best solution would be U's prepaid 25 for rm20 per month, don't you think so? Both data and calls settled in one solution. I do realise that this tread is for landline replacement, sorry.

P1 webe #BEBAS starter pack is RM10/3GB can last for more than 5 years if using it as in 64kbps approach....no need to reload every month...Alternatively, Hotlink Panta* with RM40/year is also a viable combo with Yoodo RM12/month...

If me, just get the HUP35 + RM5 for 50GB hotspot-able @ 3Mbps. The other 2 devices just wireless tethering to this HUP35...no headaches to manage 3 different telcos/plans...

Since this thread is focusing on land line replacement, me'd just comment on it.

sbd, office/home land line phone should be under Yoodo (SIM2) RM12/4,000 minutes paired with P1 webe #BEBAS (SIM1) for 64kbps access.

Leave the Yoodo default payment to auto-renew the RM12 plan thru credit card (if u hv any). Else, renew manually every month.

P1 webe #BEBAS has 90 days SIM/Account/Line validity and no need to reload at all. Use the data every day and the 90 days will be reset every day.
