1st to report in!

I support u-Mobile!! will get a u38 pack for trial

u mobile prepaid so very expensive bcs nw hotlink and digi just 36sen per min.if u mobile wan most of the people using their servics.i tink u better 2 reduce the call rates to 36 sen or even low.they people will try 2 using it.

0.48 so expensive eh

hmmm... for my opinion, those using short call is cheap. lets say, i'm calling my bro and asking "have you arrive?". i think this should only last for around 10 second. means i only need to pay for 8 cents. isnt that cheap for short call. lets say if i using digi and i call and say "have you arrive?", the call charges should be 18 cents.

so u telling us we buy umobile to make short call?

Hey i am here?
Hey online now
Hey what are you doing ? ends the call

after 10 sec Hey faster online la ? ends the call
after 10 sec Wei my msn something ends the call
after 5 sec wrong i dunno why ? ends the call?

i'm not telling you to make short call. you also can make longer calls. its all up to you. i'm just telling that making short calls is cheap. lets say, i call a person. 1st time, it goes into voice mail. i'm only charged for 1 or 2 seconds. 2nd call, its also going into voice mail. so i'm only spending around 5 cents for those 2 calls. but if you are using digi, do you know that for those 2 calls you are being charged for 36 cents? i can save 31 cents on that alone.

Then HAPPY is better lo....voicemail oso 2 sec,2 sen.

Talk 30 min 99sen,40min oso 99 sen.....

Conclusion:
Umobile - for damn short calls
HAPPY - Choose short call or calls above 5 mins....

if u call a short call, better i using my happy.bcs also pay for second.but it just expensive a bit only.if u call about 99 second,then u can get free call until 45min.i tink better choose happy lo.

1 second=1sen
after 99sec-45min=pay 99sen only
sms=10sen

i tink better choose it lo

wow...in u mobile thread,seems like almost every1 conclude happy is better

happy top up 10bucks last for 2 months...... which one worthier to keep as second line~

definitely Happy win.

well....so far myself is a happy user..n that i agree.but on 018,i stil waiting for my area to have this simpack available.so til that time,after use,oni i can share my opinion.btw my fren that use 018,said so far so good

Happy MMS damn expensive

How is U Mobile's coverage? Line good all over the place?

018,liar!This morning i reload Rm10 never get 20% extra! Why ar? From Rm0.00 i relaod then i check the balance is Rm10.20 only.

It's 2% or 20%?

Is your sim is postpaid? You need to use with 3g phone. If prepaid, you try to call 0183881318 customer service.

LOLz.....btw i just wonder how long will tat number last after expire date??HAppy got 7 days,which i miss it and lost that number... T.T

According to the FAQ http://u.com.my/umobile/paging/PricePlan/P..._2currentPage=2

it is 100 days if you topup something after you activate started part and validity expired

what does it mean?

Free starter only 7 days if no reload done. Means after you topup, the validity period is usual, after expired, you may only have inbound connection for 100days.

oic.i get the pic now.thx for the explanation

What is the commercial have to do with this?
'Pay what you need'?

7E got sell U reload

can use celcom reload?

Most telco plans (Celcom, Maxis, and newer DiGi plans) they are charging you by 30-seconds block.

So meaning to say, that if you only call your friend telling him that you have arrived at the meeting point will usually use like 5-10 seconds of call time - which you will be charged at 30seconds rate (since you've already use 1 block). This also applies if you only talk to 31 seconds (you will have to pay for 1 minute of talk time, since you're already using 2 blocks).

With umobile, right now they charge you by the seconds. So if you use 5 sec, then you only pay 5 seconds

Just wanna ask thoase ppl that is on U38 postpaid plan....
i register end of june 08

-my current bill is rm54.00 only from end of june till end of august....how they calculate? my august bill is only rm1.92....
i was shock as i expect them to charge me RM38+RM38+purata for june=more than RM76+++

U mobile is cheap if you do not use it.

And i have not paid my bill since i register and the line is still active...

this is cool..
they do not have a minimum comitment fee?

no, you can not use Celcom reload on U Mobile Prepaid

If I want to call for a short period of time.. Surely I will use my iTalk... it is way cheaper than what umoblie can offer (8 sen for first 20 seconds)

and what is the italk offer..?as i know italk charge call by destination and for local,,its charge by block rite?

As far as I know... (been using iTalk since early last year)... All calls mobile - mobile is 25 sen per minute(20 sec block).. no regional charge. Means, Maxis northern to Celcom Sabah cost also the same (25 sen).

It is quite the same for calling landline(mobile -> landline), just the rate is slightly lower (24 sen)

can use iTalk missed called back features, nice

what's the number again for italk?
last time used to use it.

1-800-87-3636

finding all ways to make money..

umobile is umobile la celcom is celcom
not like happy and digi
short answer - no

thanks

seems like not many umobile suer around yet

sungai wang dun noe which floor got 1 single stall on its own wif lots of u mobile banner stuff selling 018 simpacks for 200 which he claim is vip numbers which i c no vip there

hahahahah...... some ppl dunno the defination of vip number. just forgive them....

pls try to find for me u-mobile nice number ,thx .

few minutes, I don't think so, call forwarding you may set with your phone

i think, if they provide call fowarding service then it can lah.. not sure about u mobile.. but celcom only provide call fowarding service to their postpaid customer..

i noticed that, some people mis-understand that umobile is a celcom company.. that is not true.. umobile only use celcom gsm network. and they have to pay for it.

they signing an domestic roaming agreement with celcom since umobile doesnt have their own infrastructure.. so that their customer can enjoy celcom widest gsm coverage.

however, this agreement doesnt include 3g coverage.

so, dont ask 'can i use celcom topup to reload my umobile number' lol..

cannot call out now.. T-T
"we are facing difficulty.."

cant even dial to cust care

i want be umobile new member.. but will try to using prepaid first can ar? see got anything good for other.. is it can ar?

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...

Duh.. I'm annoyed with 018. Just now I made a call to my wife, talk for less than 1 minute, the signal gone off. Then I call back a minute later and we talked for 3 minutes, my call dropped. I tried to call again and failed. 018 center send a few sms to me, "You have insuficient fund to make more call. Please recharge". I checked my balance, still got RM8.xx and that's not enough to make a call? Wtf?! I'm getting pissed. As soon as the credit finish, I'll throw away the sim!

Sometimes i trying to call 018 number from my Celcom, quite hard to get thru.
Don't know how come like this, because they're using Celcom's network right?
Always heard the "service unavailable" tone.

New user here! I got one for my girl too but her line is having problem activating. Seems like there is a network problem?

Yo just wondering where u were having trouble with this?

I'm in Hartamas and am very annoyed too when using their 3G. See got 3G line but cannot access the Internet one...

for maxis it's still 48sen a minute UNLESS you top up rm30 it'll be 33cents now?

yup u are right....if DiGi 36sen/min without any minimum top up required.

this is U mobile Fans Club, y dont u ask at Maxis

i am replying to rainNshine.
u DiGi supporter another con case... 36sen is IF u use the prepaid I like or the chatplus.
if u use Fuyoh!/Beyond normal rates is 48sens
u ppl support certain networks but nvr tell the conditions

double checked with the hotlink website. it's 49 sen to other networks, 36 to maxis. wow, i think i did miss that one out, not knowing maxis is that expensive. coz maxis now charge in 60 sec block, means a less than 5 sec call can be 49 sen straight. but i guess if u're a regular user which reload every month, you'll get the 33 sen.

however i'm still not convienced that per sec billing will save you $$$, since it's call rate is actually 48sen/min. it still depends on your call pattern. if u mobile can give 33sen/min & per sec call rate, then it's definitely saving.

anyone see or own the umobile SOU phone already? just saw it in the papers today. is it nice?

penang got U-Mobile centre ? coz wan resgiter postpaid .

I don't think so... they have not launch their services in Penang yet... next year perhaps...

Another thing, if I'm not mistaken, is that you can only pay your Postpaid bill in Berjaya Times Square in KL...
If you're in another state, u probably need to mail in the money...

Quite a dumb approach, if u dun mind me saying...

I think you can get the Prepaid in 7-11

Berjaya Times Square ? But I From Penang , and i just wan sign up postpaid .

umobile dont hv agent in penang??

Just a rebadged China phone...
How i know?
I see the word "Double Sim Card", then i know...
Well, China phone really sucks till max!!

yes , dunt know , maybe coming soon , just maybe
