Dont ask my why, but I bought a new dash cam that has those fancy 4g thingy. Now have to find a affordable data plan.

Currently using celcomdigi prepaid for a month, looks like monthly need to reload RM 30 to keep validity, really not keen on this. therefore looking for alternatives.

I have a number with Yoodo RM 15 for 6gb (used for ipcamera), I barely use to 2GB amonth. only more usage only if there are notifications etc. but now cannot register new line on yoodo already.

So far the dash cam, after about a month consumes around 3gb. So I would guess around 5 gb would be a safe amount to have.

Any recommendations or suggestions will be much appreciated.

Hotlink Pantas plan might be a good option in your case.

Get a Hotlink SIM (RM10, comes with RM5 credit) and change the plan to Pantas Plan (RM2 one off cost)
You can then purchase either 1GB for RM2, 2GB for RM4 or 5GB for RM10. All three options are valid for 1 year/365 days from the date of purchase (need to be in active period in order to use it.)

Reload RM10 (and above) will give you 30 days active period from the day of top up/reload. You can also purchase 1 year active period for RM30 shall you need it.

Wow, looks like its something I can consider.

Summary:
1, Data validity lasts 365 days, until exhausted then top-up.
2, Account validity - top-up RM 10, valid 30 for days.

might consider moving my yoodo to this plan. all those wasted data l

Alrighty, will go have a look. thanks~

There's a 365 days sim active pass for RM 30 as well.

for my IP camera card which is on yoodo, would it be advisable to let it "terminate" or transfer the number to new telco ? just using for data, no call or messaging. So I dont need to keep the no. Same question w/ the current celcomdigi in my car.

warning, onexox has a lot of messy hidden tnc, check the onexox thread

another consideration is tunetalk tahunan 99/200

rm99 or 200 per year (well, they define a year as 360 days)
roughly rm8 or 16 per month

2 or 10gb per month

Hmm.. . something like celcomdigi? RM 25 for 16gb but 30days validity need top-up RM 30?!

I'm using unifi mobile
Send 1 sms every 90 days to stay active

unfortunately, that old plan that had basically infinite validity is gone, you cant get it anymore

XOX WAWA18, RM18 for 18G monthly

internet plan la tu

AAh.. i have this one as a secondary sim on my phone hahaha

but hard to send SMS if the simcard in the car dash cam kit

Izit? Demmm i need to keep this sim carefully

If use data then no need send sms
The tnc to stay active is
- send 1 sms or
- call 1 number or
- use 1kb data
in every 90 days

Tunetalk rm100 per year 2gb per month
Or rm200 for 10gb

Yeap, i always switch to unifi mob for a few mins and back, been doing that for a number of years.

thanks, 2gb wont be enough, so far from my testings it will hit under 3gb. But of course depends on the 'activity' so may be more or less. I would say around 5gb would be a safer limit.

then rm200/year for 10gb/month is a safe bet.
