used it for 10 months, really hopeless, coverage sucks, customer service non existent , support for Volte limited to very few devices.
My advice is to steer clear of Unifi Mobile, sure regret

buy a prepaid sim card and test first for coverage

in my case, they keep throttle my speed although they say its not

so download is painfully slow

Im currently outstation to outskirt area and there is no fibre around my taman.
Came across a newly built cell tower and getting a friendly talk with the on-site servicing technician
He told me the tower was "sponsor" by webe and i straight away subscribe Unifi Bebas.

Tried tunetalk, Hotline, like dumb shit. I guess rural area coverage are depend on your nearest cell tower service.

I dont torrent, watch HD videos, occasionally watch 480p videos on my iPad air
I connect the simcard to MIFI all the while so i would say the data quite sufficient to my usage (60GB per month).
RM35 a month, unlimited data but capped in 7.2mpbs

Best selection for my current condition.

Their unlimited plans are decent, providing you have their limited coverage.
No unlimited calls. But better download speeds.

That was 3G back then.
I don't think they are piggybacking any other telcos.

They used to constantly from to 3G back then, so had to force it to LTE only.

Unifi mobile user here. I'm using it more for non expiry purpose since 2017. I just top up RM 100 & slowly deduct the main balance for call package & for once data package. As far as I can say I work in Telok Panglima Garang, data is iffy depends on the location. Same as call quality. However in town like PJ & KL. It is great as I can do both nicely. Depends on your location of use.

During MCO1.0, my places havent got any fibre services and we all using streamyx and 4G to get connected to the internet.
It was seriously congested at that time because i was told by the customer service everyone working at home and the cell tower are not designed to cater so many users.
They are expanding the cell tower to improve the coverage but after that situation getting better.

The quality of your telco services are depending on your nearest cell tower. Different cell towers bearing different ISP.

I using it, very good usage, but sometimes of course it got line down time or no Internet line not worst like other celcom, digi, maxis umobile. Monthly pay rm62.75 since got unifi home packages. Oh and sometime visit lytnet forum will get ip being banned 5min, if still visit lytnet forum will add more hour being banned coz lot using same ip. Meaning you have to stop visit for a while.

True since both are TM owned but each one operate independently. If you see 3rd party coverage study, it is still not the same as Celcom. The RedOne is also Celcom line but where there are limited capacities, the priority goes to Celcom as network owner.

I switched to RedOne from Celcom when last time exxisting Celocom customer cannot switch to xPax 28. Then not long after that it was allowed. Now I did not see that package anymore I think. I'm also considering the Unifi mobile for my Android player in the car although the coverage is not that okay now but it has very good offer like unused data is not defaulted as long as your phone active and to be active, you just need to top-up as little as RM10 within 90 days. I think it is good to use for car. smile.gif

I've been using it mainly for it unlimited data. so far coverage in Ipoh area seem ok. In my workplace it actually get full 4G+ meanwhile Celcom drop to 1 bar in my office.

Convenience to use just topup whenever I need to use unlimited Data which u get the option to use daily, weekly or monthly. Price also pretty cheap. Best try with postpaid plan 1st to see if your area coverage is good enough to use it.

Been using Unifi Mobile simcard for 4 years+ as my second phone simcard. My experience throughout the 4 years:

Pros
-No problem if you are in 4G covered area.

-No expiry mobile data, just need to be active every 90 days to maintain the line. If no activities within 90 days the sim card will be terminated automatically.

Cons
-If you are in low coverage area which has no 4G and the mobile data plan you got only support 4G, congratulation you are officially offline. So, buy some 3G mobile data as well, you can see the 3G and 4G choices through 'buy mobile data' in the app.

-Unifi mobile has no USSD code.
Reload and read balance only through unfi mobile app, no USSD code, unlike other telcos like maxis can dial *122# to check balance and reload.

-Experienced quite often the app went down whole day. When the app is down you can't do a reload and read balance. So make sure you have enough balance to make a call and enough data just in case the app is down.

edit: forgot to mention that i'm using prepaid.

Try use prepaid first, if you feel the line is ok then only commit to postpaid.

I used this for roughly 2 years.
My advice is, to check first for the coverage, namely your residential house and your workplace. In the beginning, the coverage was amazing. It used its own LTE coverage while piggy-riding on Celcom's 3G network. But once 3G was gone, the coverage was damn terrible.

not just the network, the call signal is really bad too. So eventually, I had to move to Digi. Unifi Mobile really gives the best value, IF you can use it. If not, it's totally useless.

My advice is, don't commit to the contract. Perhaps try it first for the first 2 months before deciding. Good thing is, that they offer non-contract plans at decent pricing.

i got unifi mobile as my backup number previously b4 porting out.
it's pretty alright when area covered by 4G.
when it falls to 3G, actually running on celcom network as non priority traffic, & bcom shitty.
hated the 3G & 4G data quota segregation.
though i'm not sure how it goes now after 3G network was shut down.

it actually also very much dependant on the building got install telco signal booster o not.

unifi mobile hav access to 850mhz spectrum, which is good for penetrating building, but still shit nonetheless.
YES does a better job in this. (800Mhz spectrum)

Not sure why, but it say about same ip access not just one but many, since the line is share by celcom and other might cause traffic jam.

Hey TS if planning to get postpaid, maybe YES is best option

Talked to their agent just now and no speedcap/data cap for their infinite plan

Also no contract as well

Did get it cause it didn't have coverage at my area

it depends on the state your on

in sabah, unifi mobile expanded very fast during these 2 years of MCO
but of course also check if that area u stayed in is congested or not

because if it is, it won't move much despite 4G+ with full bars
