Ah Hao buyed the sim card online from Um website

should not such a sim be activated and registered upon delivery?

yes, will still cost 5 sen

no additional charges, but the data speed will be much slower under Celcom

the discounted IDD rates under IDD 1310 can only be used on Umobile 3G network too

it's under Option 2 - U Broadband in the main menu

nope

no freebies with this one..

Umobile Prepaid have new plan rules [for activation from 20 January 2012 onwards]

http://www.u.com.my/prepaid-packages/free_sms_and_free_call

Free Um-Um calls now only 12am-7pm, after that it is 6 sen/min

Free 20 sms (to Um) for every 6 sms sent, this apply during the same no of days as the free Um-Um calls

Reminds me how DiGi changed the Easy plan early last year

Yes, I found it is much easier to connect the call if both side are on Um 3G network rather than Celcom 2G.

Yes seems reasonable. The phone is subsidised by your new postpaid plan so U Mobile need to confirm your mnp goes through and the plan is set up first.

currently, the U Mobile OCS account for prepaid is very basic

can check credit balance, reload history, update address

no e-statement yet

last time, I see on U Mobile website that postpaid users need to pay RM300 deposit for international roaming

now I cannot find it again though - the website become hard to navigate recently

http://www.malaysianwireless.com/2012/05/u...fin-as-new-ceo/

prepaid broadband and mobile internet are both on the *118# menu

Nope, U Mobile charging 05 sen for this kinda sms.

Yes I think so. Only prepaid get charged.

U Mobile have no gsm licence

UMobile2G = roaming on celcom

U Mobile = roaming on maxis

U Mobile 3G = their own 3G network*

* correction: it seems their own network dropped the 3G so U Mobile could mean either UM or maxis

some more just now for first time I got the maxis under both 3G and gsm mode... however there is no access yet via maxis 3G

yes, in fact roaming on maxis 2G is already possible

here are the GSM and 3G network search results
