No matter how, they still charge for your call. It depends on how they're charging you; i.e 30-second or 60-second block.

if i call more than 1 minute then they din charge me for the block call?

Charging block is basic measurement unit like SI unit - metre for distance/length, kg for mass and etc.

Let's say the call I made is 85 seconds.

According to 33 cents/min from Hotlink and Hotlink uses 60-sec charging block, I'll be charged for 2 blocks of 66 cents (2 blocks of 60-sec).

If using DiGi of 36cents/min with 30-sec charging block, I'll be charge for 54 cents (3 blocks of 30-sec).

then the call rate is diference with tis ?? or got add in with tis ?

That's why you need to understand your plan well.

I'm quoting some examples. They may not valid for your call plan.

this guy is lost. Very lost

Make your life easy ok let says DIGI CHARGING 0.36 per block by 30 sec

so if 1 minute is 0.36 x 2 = RM 0.72

So 1 minute is 0.72 cents if 2 minutes add another 0.72 cent on top of it

I guess David83's example is the better way to explain things. I'm sure by now you should get the idea.

Hotlink: 1-60 seconds = RM 0.33
DiGi: 1-29 seconds = RM 0.18, 30-60 seconds = RM 0.36

Can understand? I think I have used the simplest equation to explain this thing.

ok

explain in 1 minute easier to understand

i understand , but the call rate ??

Calls longer than 1 minute as per advertised rate will be charged using this simple equation: Used block x Rate per block

Of course you need to convert all the necessary information to fit into the equation.

Since this is DiGi thread, will use 30-sec charging block and 36cents/min (= 2 blocks) call rate to illustrate as an example:

1. Call made up to 30 sec: 1 block x 18 cents/block = 18 cents
2. Call made up to 1 min: 2 blocks x 18 cents/block = 36 cents
3. Call made up to 90 sec: 3 blocks x 18 cents/block = 54 cents

Odd examples:

1. Call duration is 24 sec: 24 sec is within 30-sec block, so 1 block x 18 cents/block = 18 cents
2. Call duration is 54 sec: 54 sec is using 2x30-sec block, so 2 block x 18 cents/block = 36 cents

There're just simple maths. Hope this could help.

It depends on the network provider.
Case like Hotlink charges RM 0.33/minute to all networks. DiGi charges RM 0.36/minute to all networks.

then the family and friend plan is RM 0.10 per minute ??

Different plan has different rate.

The general rate for DiGi prepaid is 36cents/min but its FnF rate is 15cents/min.

As I said earlier, you need to understand your plan well.

If you are on postpaid, i.e. DG 50 onwards; then it is RM 0.10/minute.

If you are on prepaid, it is RM 0.15.minute.
1-29 second: RM 0.08
30-60 second: RM 0.15

i already understand , can i always change my plan in digi ??

If prepaid I Like, yes. Every month can change once.
If postpaid, I don't think you have many choices to change though.

DiGi prepaid has a full range of Super series plan. Personally, I think it's getting more confusing!

all prepaid is I Like ?? super series is better ? ?

On all postpaid plans, the FnF call charges is 10 cents inclusive DG20.

Prepaid : Once a month
Postpaid : Unlimited times in a month.
