I got this as an email. Is this true?


Dear all,


STOP CALLING 103 through your MAXIS number.

If you are using Maxis network and please be alert that now the new charges for making 103 (TM Directory)
was increased from 30 cents to RM2.00 per call. (extra of RM1.70 almost 700% jump).

I just found out from my maxis statement dated 21/6/08 today and i rang up the Maxis 123 and been told the
new rate was started lately only and since I'm not aware of this new adjustment and they willing to waive it for this month but next month will be charging me based on the new rate (RM2.00 per call to 103).

Shocking right? The best part is everyone knew how "good" service our TM directory can provide?? Most the
time i need to call at least 2-3 times to get the number i looking for mean that one number i need to pay RM4.00 to RM6.00...OMG....equal to one meal already...

So please pass this news to your maxis friends to alert them the new charges.

Easiest way is to call maxis to confirm this

Not surprise, its almost same charged as using mobile phone call those 1800-tm-nut no.

conclusion is, use land line call those 103/1800 numbers :

call use land line, 100% free...hehehe

103 using land line is not free right?

ooh ya...but the charges to call 103 is very low by landline

30sen/min?
This rate is what i checked years before..

yeah it increased to rm2 somewhere within the last few months

is it rm2 per minute ah?

wef 20/5/2008, the charge is RM 2 per call.

Even 1051 also same charge i think...
Same applies to DiGi....
Because my friend want to confirm that his time is accurate or not, then i tell him, simply call 1051, later he show me the LAST CALL COST, RM2.00!!

har increased allready? darn it used to be RM1 right per call charges? now want to order McD rather use home line

I think they dare not to increase the 1300 charges la.
Only charge as local call charges.
Like 36sen for Hotlink.

it's true.... today im just read my maxis bill......

all the better to use landline..
