I tried U Mobile for 6 days at Damansara Damai. Good signal even though they say my area has no coverage. The only provider with HSDPA speed there. I do get speeds up to 2Mbps sometimes.

My only complaints are the 2-year contract, and the fact that every 10-15 minutes the HSDPA will degrade down to 3G during which I cannot surf the Internet (though remain connected to U Mobile network). It will stay so for a few minutes before going back to HSDPA when I can start surfing again.

At RM 78 per month with free modem thrown in, it's a fantastic offer. just that for now I'll stay with Celcom a little bit longer until they are more stable and has wider coverage.

As far as i am concerned, i have no problem with u-mobile although in the beginning there is some problem related to configuration. Signal is strong in Kelana Jaya. It's as good as streamyx, and occasional near to 2 mbps. Service is good too, maybe becos they are still new. ;-)

The subscription ($78) is relatively "cheap" too if you take into consideration that you dont have to pay fixed phone charges from terrorkom (RM25-phone rental + RM66- internet charges).

I experienced that too - just keep on connecting, you will be connected eventually. Just turn off that sound though ( I hate it when it goes "tada!" whenever it fails to connect!)

Went to BTS yesterday to re-register. Was told that they ran out of stock and will be launching a new promo come 1st July. No details, hopefully something exciting enough to justify the 2 year contract.

*ahem*... let me enlighten you all about this... (u can get the details from www.u.com.my)
UM is not using Celcom 3G as UM have their own 3G coverage. But now limited to certain areas withing Klang Valley...
That's why UM broadband was offered for Klang Valley dwellers as of now
As for normal phone calling, if you are calling from somewhere outside the UM 3G coverage, then the Celcom coverage will kicks in...

Guys, U-mobile got some new plans including a D68 plan currently at RM58 during promotion time.

Still got 5GB cap limit...

Their T&C also quite long...one that catches my eye:

============
4. If you subscribe to this Service as a data plan only, you must not use the USIM we supply to you to access and you will not be able to access, other services such as voice calls, voice mail, SMS and MMS. If you are able to access such services, you will be charged for your use of such services at our prevailing rates.
==========

Sounds like a potential repeat of the Celcom RM8K incident ?? sweat.gif

The statement shows they have no control on their system? tongue.gif
