u can take it from Times Square.
Free of Charge.

take up to 10 numbers! preloaded with RM1.
numbers will be activated within 12 hours.

Imho it is really slow in Malacca. What a waste to consumer. Furthermore, I do see how it is going to compete with Red and Yellow which have established themselves.

hehehe.. take so many number for what.. actually i just wan take umobile for spare phone use only..

I took a starter pack on Monday, until now my 018 still cannot call in or call out. I dial *118# then returns "System currently not available. Please try it later" bla bla bla... What's wrong? Is it my line not activated? Someone help me..

Umobile actually offer a very good deals..

- 1sec/block
- 20% free airtime for any reload
- Free call/sms within umobile network
- widest 2G coverage (because using Celcom network)

for me its great.. the only reason why im not take 018 number because i already got so many numbers..

I called their customer service, and waited for 3 mins but nobody pick up the phone! Grrr.... Now I let my 018 phone on and cant do anything about it.

heard umobile coming to kuantan 2day 1st nov...
phone shop owner said
1.start pack rm10 but inside preload with rm13 credit
2.018 calls to 018 onli..1 hour per day is free/FOC/no charge ??~!!!?

pls can anyone confirm this?????
i onli got the info fr phoneshop..i also dun know if this is true...
mayb he just wan to boost his sale..or wat ever...

i tot starter pack is free..

Actually, starter pack inside got rm1, 7 days expiry once you activate. Then, Rm10 reload the price you pay for. Each denomination comes with 20% bonus, and there is Rm12 plus initial Rm1, so Rm13 total value.
Yes, the 1 hour free call is valid only to U Mobile to U Mobile for prepaid.
Not sure whether they coming to Kuantan or not, but sure can use at Kuantan.

hi guy corect me if i wrong.

umobile prepaid can use nationwide. roaming celcom network.

umobile postpaid must use 3g phone only. This one not roaming celcom network.

If i not mistaken,postpaid for non 3g area still roam under celcom network.

I do wonder why so many people are so willing to change to 018...

I do think the charges they put out for calling is quite expensive... I mean I'm a normal guy so when I call my friends I talk for at least 30 secs... and not just 1 sec... So it's quite usual to be billed for the 30 secs block... Is there alot of ppl calling ppl for 1 sec only meh??

It's just a thought only ok... so please dun flame...

I'm on DIGI now and so far I dun not see any reason U Mobile is giving to change to them...

What do you guys think?

1sec/block can save more $$$ actually.. i like this idea.

and 20% extra credit, very worthy to take it.. reload rm10 got rm2, reload rm30 got rm6.. very good deals.

plus other promotion such as free call and sms to all umobile number nationwide. eventhough its not unlimited, but still very good offer..

do u got such offer from hotlink?

their gsm coverage as good as celcom since their using celcom network, that also another good reason to choose umobile

but the problem is umobile still dont have customer base or market share, and they also dont have die hard fan yet like other telcos.

I agree with this, especially for prepaid. Even it is per sec billing, the call rate is about 0.8sen/sec which round up to approx 1 sen 1 sec. That's 48sen/min compared to 36 or 33 sen for other telco. Let's say you make a short call about 15-30 sec, i don't see that much savings, unless you do make a lot of calls that are shorter than 5 secs.

The only bonus i see worth noticing is the 1 hr free call daily to other 018 numbers.

i got the starter pack free but the dealer say only 15sen credit inside. i choose my number and he says u can use after 3hour. ITS TOTALLY FREE.

then after tomolo i try my new U, put the sim, on my phone and put SIM pass? yea simple 1234
then Houston we got prob. EMERGENCY CALLS ONLY.HAHAHA.. "search for network" and nothing happen,,, i luffing and throw that sim. bye U! u make me bad for ur 1st impression all i just can say.

i just stick to my UOX for my spare number cz got alot of year validity.

are you ok? it is registered under your name, and you going to throw, by the way, isn't it comes with RM1 instead of 15sen credit inside?

Hey, is there 3G services for 018?? I'm considering to switch...

forgot, yea,yea RM1 kredit inside i think, i cannot use my "u" or that sim maybe faulty unit, so i throw up.

so that mean umobile NOT roaming to celcom network ?

maybe you can try manual searching and choose MY CELCOM network.. actually it should automatically roaming into celcom network..

U Mobile is fully 3G in Klang Valley... other areas, it's switches to Celcom 2G services only if I'm not mistaken...

I do wonder how many people are actively using 018... seeing how I've not met anyone with that number yet...
