I'm thinking of trying this u-mobile...but RM78 with 24 months contract AND a RM799 penalty is ridiculous. You can buy those modem for RM400 outside.

Furtheremore, what if it sucks after 1 month?? Pretty dangerous...like signing up with the devil...furtheremore, no confidence in Vincent Tan ventures...all half hearted job, like MITV, day 1 it launched with those crappy free to air satellite channels i knew it's going to die. I was right.

But i was thinking of signing of the U38 voice plan...can get 2 months free surfing...is it really "free" or do you have to pay?? Anyone tried?

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

5gb is still a lot better than 3gb by Maxis 3G, right?
and i was paying a cool rm100++ for lousy Maxis 3G at my place (pst bdr puchong)... sad.gif

I heard people saying the actual Maxis cap is no 20GB unofficially. Check out the Maxis thread.

Yeah, new package. No modem, RM58 per month, no contract! Bye Bye Siowcom very soon!~

Don't be so happy, their 3G service is only limited to Klang Valley. Outside of Klang valley, they're tapping to Celcom 3G/2G services. I'm not sure if you can get HSDPA outside of klang valley...Maybe celcom will give priority to Celcom customer first and kick out all u-mobile subscriber when it overloads. brows.gif

Can somebody using u-mobile answer me this question?

I'm using CELCOM...even if i access using U-mobile APN , it can connect but still shows 'MY CELCOM'.

You should install the software that comes with ur samsung. Connect ur samsung hp via USB and setup the software to dial *99# and APN=my3g.

Should be straighfoward.
