maybe because 5g coverage in sabah is pretty bad. I'm still
waiting for it to be implemented in my town.

Last time just stated in their official website, but not inside the app. So I believe now they will start enforce this already

got sabah pass for pantas?

Hi,anyone facingV issue unable receive call in semenanjung and 4G volte line will become 2G when make call out

Blame it on people abusing it. The users are lucky enough not having their data barred because according to Maxis/Hotlink FUP TnC, they can do so anytime.


It isn't just 5G but the whole Maxis/Hotlink is no where as good as stable as Digi and Celcom. In so many rural areas Maxis/Hotlink coverage, if there is coverage, is pretty spotty. Hence Maxis is very aggressive with its pricing.

my maxis line is pretty good at most places in sabah, better than digi at my hometown too

Are there security issues if you use a preregistered Sabah Maxis SIM in someone else name?

but still, this is a good plan ( even on 4G )
60gb 4G+free calls

Anyone know for Hotlink Prepaid. The plan can auto renew monthly or have to manually click to subscribe/purchase?

i got this.
i noticed that when at home on wifi, no issues. vowifi is working and calls are ok.
but a few times when i am out from the house and switched to use data, i will have this issue. shows E and no connection to data. had to turn airplane mode on and off again to reconnect

I'm quite keen on this mainly because of the RM20/60GB offer lol. But yeah the way some sellers in orange app trying to sell it is quite dodgy.

They need your ic picture without any cross or watermark. So high probability that your ic will be used to register dummy sim which they also sell at higher price.

Hello, I successfully MNP to Hotlink today and I also did the process in Sabah region. However, I couldn’t find the Sabah plan in my hotlink app. How can I purchase it? Currently on Hotlink Prepaid 1.0

It is under "Passes".

As you just MNP-ed, it may take a day or two to appear.

I managed to purchase it by first switching to cellular data from WiFi and refreshed the apps, then it appeared.

Hi, anyone know is there any charges if call 122 from hotlink prepaid plan? Because as what I know call 122 free only if call from postpaid plan

My access is ‘lost’ after a few months. Cannot see the package anymore (got the sim from shopee).

In short, if you try to buy one from one of the many shopee sellers, it might work for a few months of subscription then the option for 5/20gb and 20/60gb suddenly won’t appear on the hotlink app anymore.

Can’t call 122 either because you sorta bought it thru backdoor method. But if you are actually in Sabah, I guess it’s fine?

Yes no issues for me in Sabah

Mine is still active. If you’re planning to buy from Shopee, just be cautious because the offer might disappear. The safest way is to use the MNP (Mobile Number Portability) method. I’ve been using it until today without any issues.

I actually have brother and sis in law in Sabah. They might come to Semenanjung during cuti sekolah for a visit.

Is it wise to have them buy a sim card there and bring it to me?
