Don't know why maxis don't want to show the exact FUP?

Maxis FUP T&C still state they have a right to throttle your streaming speed once your principal and share line(s) exceed 300GB in a calendar month. It means they may or not may throttle your speed.

My parents have been using Maxis Postpaid 98 Unlimited since the MaxisONE days and their mobile data was never throttled. So i guess it only happens if they find excessive use of mobile data for your account.

i have been relying solely on maxis 4g because 5g has become too inconsistent in my area. cant even make voip call let alone watch youtube or listen to spotify

rip to maxis 4g now too

Im surprised nobody notice here that Maxis no longer operate on Band 7 LTE frequency. Maybe try to cut cost for incoming 5G or NGBB expansion. Idk what actually happen. When i try to manually lock to Maxis Band 7. It will just show Emergency Calls Only to Celcom/Digi network or No Service. It not big deals as Band 7 sucks at upload speed anyway. Just worth to point out Maxis not operate 4G LTE on Band 7 anymore. So, good bye 4G+ speedtest above 200Mbps.. whistling.gif

No wonder my Maxis speedtest is so bad recently.
Whereas my Digi by CelcomDigi network keep getting almost or more than 200 Mbps+ consistently in 4G+ area.
It performs amazingly well on fully integrated tower.

With recent quota upgrade, I noticed difference among the plans are no. of supp line entitlement. So effectively we are paying RM78++ for each supp line. Is it worth?

I don't think Maxis will shutdown its B7 nationwide. Certain towers may turn off B7 and some even B1 to conserve energy during off peak hour. Prolly Maxis think no point for having over 200Mbps on 4G (low utilization) that's why it proceeds to shut it down on that particular tower/sector

What I can try doing is lock B7 and check if it remains connected during my commute (Cyber to Shah Alam) back.

Looks like they might be preventing devices from using B7 as the primary band. Noticed this in the Puchong-USJ area.

With just band 7 enabled, and all others used by Maxis disabled. My phone drops to 2G. But let's say I enable just band 1. My phone would use b1 as the primary band and band 7 for carrier aggregation.

True for Kinrara and PJ area as well. This will allow more China imported phones to have 4G+ signal by default

The number of sup line entitlement has been there long before the upgrade. higher plan get more sup line, lower plan like postpaid 79 cannot get sup line.

Have to dig in their T&C to find out if 3 lines each got 1tb or otherwise. If you rajin try to use up to 1tb and see if they throttle you until end of bill cycle.

Shah Alam as well. Locked on B7 (disabled B1/3/8 and B28 to prevent the phone from going on 5G) and it's back to EDGE.

Do China-imported phones don't support B7 or something?

1000gb for cap for each lines. If 199 paying 4 subline all under 1TB data means no point being charges high.

certain China-imported phones support B7 but no CA with other band, stuck with B7. B1-B3 is a common combo in China so CA should works better

Then only way to be sure is to try it out and hit the FUP limit.
