I noticed that at least on Digi side, it tends to switch to Digi tower (i.e. not integrated yet) that is further away even though there is integrated CelcomDigi tower just metres away. This bugs me as that makes it harder to map integrated CelcomDigi tower with CellMapper (need to always toggle Airplane Mode)

I also remember my uncle & aunt complaining to me (both using Celcom) that the signal got worse at their place... before that Celcom did have full bars at their home in Kajang. They did consider switching to U Mobile

I called Digi customer service and asked about his, he said he himself as a user does not notice any differences before and after...

Before I port out from Digi - I have experienced both the pre integration network (just Digi) and post integration network (Celcom + Digi)

Before integration - the network speed is really, really great with almost 400Mbps speed (LTE-A)
Post integration - the max I could get is 120Mbps (LTE-A) and this is around 5am when the traffic is lighter.

Performance is much worse for devices without CA - getting around 20-30Mbps (with my mom's phone). Was able to get over 100Mbps before that.

You can imagine the frustration I am having with it!

DiGi after merging with Celcom has gone down the drain. Network is not only unstable but slower as hell.

Second that. Felt the quality is bad after the merger.

Thinking to port out but surely miss 2TB and free roaming from Celcom

is this the winner of joke of the year before 2023 coming to end

already have quota cap, paying rm80 monthly still need to impost 5G speed cap, good job celcomdigi on suicide

Just get prepaid of other telco, test and see.

The possible cause of CD became slower due to merger: loss of band 7 (2600)

Band 7 (2600) contribute to the speed of LTE pre merger. After merger, CD have to surrender their 2600 band licences, therefore new integrated network losses out on band 7 for speed. Now CD has to rely on band1, 3 and 8 (2100, 1800, 900) for their post merger LTE network

any one facing no 5g signal this few day ? i in Jb area
my phone network status is " Celcom oleh CelcomDigi"

Which smartphone? I think since merger 4G and 5G sucks in Celcomdigi

s23 ultra. been working fine, just this few day no 5g signal

Those unlimited plans macam gooding

2023
Yet got speed caps for 5G

Like seriously 😣

KNN Since 100Mbps is 4G Technology, why still provide this package and somemore charge for RM80!!! WTH,, GILABAI CELCOMEDIGI!!!

still early .. read this https://www.buletintv3.my/detik-niaga/celco...i-30-tahun-ini/

Based on what I see on the speedcaps, CelcomDigi is clearly learning the bad things from those European telcos (and possibly it's 1/3 parent Telenor), which do implement speedcaps on their so called 5G "unlimited" plan to maximise their profit - as there is nothing to do other than implementing speedcaps because the plans are already "unlimited". Note that Telenor's subsidiaries in Norway (Telenor) and Finland (DNA) offer "unlimited" internet but with speed cap.

True unlimited means unlimited data usage and uncapped speed (the max possible) - which is impossible on mobile networks due to congestion. Unless the telcos are clearly using mmWave to cover the majority of the population, which is impossible and impractical due to its spectrum characteristics.

The 5G speed tier is unacceptable.

I stayed with Celcom because of their free roaming in 23 countries for Plan 188 for up to 100 GB as I travel a lot.

With this new change, although it says unlimited roaming, normally there is a high speed FUP of around 2GB per day. So, I am waiting to see their detail T&C tomorrow.

Will see if they force us to change to the new plans or can maintain current plan with all the features.

If force to change to new plan, I will port to Maxis.

Digi used to be pretty fast and stable before the merger. Nowadays, it's just lousier. Whatever excuses or BS reasons they give is just not acceptable.

Their new plan. OMG. Yeah, agreed with you folks. What is the point of 5G when there's speed cap?! Really "top-kek" plan they have.
