Hi all,

Just wondering if this can be done easily, and if so, how? Can be done online, Maxis CS (123), or walk into store?

Currently have a Maxis Postpaid 98 with Share 48. When making the switch, both will be switched together?

Appreciate those with recent experience to share.

Thanks!

Do take note there is no supplementary line plan for Hotlink Postpaid. So need to decouple the sup line first then switch to Hotlink postpaid. I suggest you try call 123 to enquire.
I have heard conflicting information, some said need to switch to Hotlink prepaid first then switch back to Hotlink postpaid. Some said can direct switch from Maxis postpaid to Hotlink postpaid.

Maxis or hotlink a problematic lot. I have a non contractual postpaid with celcom and celcom won't allow to switch to prepaid. So I wanna change to hotlink prepaid. Then they say can. But go to the centre. They say need to be on postpaid for 6 mths then can change to hotlink prepaid.

I got fedup. End up changing to xox prepaid with no terms and conditions and get 36 mths validity

Hahaha, some of those ppl just want comission only. Actually if push harder, they will do it.
Most of the time all we want is hassle free of waiting for sim card postage, otherwise switching can always be done online.

If I have Maxis postpaid with no other commitments, can I switch directly to Hotlink postpaid without having to wait ?

Let's wait for update from contestchris. If successful, you can follow his trick above.

Thanks for clarifications. Is there a way to split to 2 different bills with different names?

The reason I'm asking is for income tax purpose as we can claim cost for mobile data plan separately if bill is under different name
*
Just make sure to have each number under individual name. Can go to Maxis centre to change ownership. Then each individual will get his/her own bill.

Actually Hotlink is a subsidiary of Maxis? The line from Hotlink is actually Maxis line?

Got speed difference between Maxis and Hotlink? Is it the same stability or speed being offered equally?
*
Yes same. Hotlink is targetted towards lower segment postpaid while Maxis is for those who willing to pay more and able to buy devices on contract.
As for my previous testing on Maxis and hotlink, same place same model of phone, there is no difference in performance and coverage.

does anyone know if hotlink pospaid can be paired with sim number share for apple watch? plan to port to hotlink from digi due to digi line at my home is terrible..
*
To my knowledge, only Maxis postpaid can be paired with Apple Watch sim and the Apple Watch sim cost rm18 monthly.
I stand corrected if there is any new info regarding this.
