Hi,

I was using maxis roaming pass in china (guangzhou and shenzhen) last week. I noticed the loading and browsing speed on chinese apps were very slow or sometime it just doesn't load. No speed issue on apps like FB, IG, Google !

Chinese apps that i encountered issue:

Didi
Meituan
China's banking apps
GaoDe Map
Baitu Map

all very slow!

Anyone face the same issue before?

It could be you have exceeded the daily limit.

I think its 2GB for Maxis and 3GB for Digi, then it will throttle your speed.

happened to us too

Nope, definitely not exceeded any daily limit.. it just very slow while running Chinese apps.
