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

The new price of CelcomDigi is either they help others to increase their subscriber or they acted as industry big brother to stop the prices wars.

They want equal to big one.....
CelcomDigi thinks that people are too loyal to them
But I smelling people might port for Maxis or Umobile!! Hope they won't fall under 5G cap agenda🙏🙃

On the other hand, I'm wondering how CelcomDigi's unified prepaid offering is going to be... considering the postpaid prices are ridiculous compared to other telcos

hmm i wish I could switch to this.

I am still a Digi customer paying RM150 on the phone bill, but around a month ago I switched from Unifi to Digi 300MBps.

If they allow me to switch to this plan without penalties, I think it'll be great. I'll definitely jump to this.

(Looking at CelcomDigi 5G 260)

Yes, TM Unifi Fiber and Celcom, being GLCs, are the "kings" in rural areas and small towns where they have a captive market. Also TM HSBB Wholesale is a monopoly, especially in West Malaysia. Hence, TM Unifi Fiber and CelcomDigi could afford to set higher prices with bigger profit margins for their services, compared to the non-GLC telcos and celcos who mostly only service urban and suburban areas, in order to be able to compete against the 2 "kingly" GLCs.

Eg with the new cheaper 2023 MSAP wholesale prices set by MCMC, TM Unifi Fiber could afford to maintain it's higher prices and bigger profit margins by just giving free speed upgrades to existing subscribers and abolishing the lowest tier Unifi Fiber plans of 30Mbps and 50Mbps, ie the new lowest tier Fiber plan is 100Mbps at RM99 per month (without rebate).
....... Those who chose not to take up the free speed upgrade and opt to pay lower monthly subscriptions at the same speed are forced to be re-contracted for another 24 months.
....... Isn't greedy TM using a loophole or legal bypass.?

Seems the GLCs of TM and Celcomdigi are even the "Big Brother" of MCMC and Fahmi, compared to the Gobind era in 2018-2020, = "The tail is wagging the dog.", not the dog is wagging the tail.

In the end, the Rakyat Rugi.

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.

may I know which plan under Maxis sir if you are going to port out? I have same use case as yours whereby the Mega 188 gives free roaming and 2TB quota.

Haven't decided which Maxis plan. Maxis roaming plans have high speed FUP of 2GB per day.

But looks like for existing Celcom Mega Plans, you can maintain it until further notice.

The new Maxis postpaid plans are very good, much better than the new CelcomDigi tier and speed cap plans.

Wonder who are the smart marketing and sales people in CelcomDigi who came up with these plans.

Thinking of porting to Maxis but only thing that is keeping me in Celcom is the free data roaming in 23 countries for current Mega 188 plan.

One thing I noticed after celcomdigi merger is Digi stop giving free quota upgrades this year. Usually I got free 5gb upgrades every year, but this year kaput nothing. Been waiting but nothing.

Maxshit too expensive, I'm paying Digi only rm25 per month cos my plan is rm35 but got rm10 rebates monthly. The best part is 5G is included without any additional fees. The only fees I need to pay is SST. That's why I'm holding on to this plan while waiting for my free upgrades that never happens this year. Digi was better alone than after marrying Celcom.
