Just done some research for choosing the right DiGi plan for my future E72:

For DiGi 3G for mobile phones, i shall categorize them into these 2:

(A) High usage of Data every month (more than 6MB)

1. Internet Unlimited Monthly 58
- Must have a DiGi postpaid to subscribe
- Pay RM58 every month + postpaid phone bill (either RM30, 50 or 150)
- After 3GB of data usage, your speed will be slowed down.

2. DiGi Smart Plan RM68/month

- This plan include the phone call/sms
- Pay 68 every month for internet
- How much you call/sms is how much you pay (15sen/min, 10sen/sms)
- After 3GB of data usage, your speed is slowed down
- 25% Discount on RM68 (become RM51) if TOTAL BILL amount is from RM100 to 199.99
- 100% Discount on RM68 (become RM0) if TOTAL BILL amount exceed RM200

QUESTION: WHICH ONE TO CHOOSE?
It depends on your monthly call/sms/mms usage.

If your phonebill is really ALOT (more than RM150), get the first plan by choosing the combination of DG150 + IU Monthly 58.
Reason: DG150 call rate (10sen/min) is lower than that of DiGi Smart Plan (15sen/min)

If your phone bill is not really too much, get DiGi Smart plan. Do some maths on the 25% or 100% discount thing. It really saves alot.
Example:
Your call/sms fee is RM32.
Internet usage RM68 (smart plan)
As total bill is RM100, RM68 is discounted to RM51.
Result: You only pay RM83 for total phone bill.
Compare this with taking combination of DG30 + IU58 which cost RM88.
RM5 difference only? Not only that, Smart Plan Call rate (15sen/min) is cheaper than DG30 (20sen/min).



(B) Low usage of Data every month (less than 6MB)

1. DiGi Internet Unlimited Max149 - for Postpaid
- Must have a Postpaid plan to subscribe this
- For usage between RM0.00 to RM30.00 at 10sen/10KB
- For usage between RM30.01 to RM50.00 at 8sen/10KB
- For usage between RM50.01 to RM149.00 at 5sen/10KB
- After RM149, no more extra charges, enjoy up to 3GB data usage and speed is throttled down upon 3GB usage.
- So you see, if your usage is only 3MB per month, you pay RM30 (which means it is not worth for you to pay RM58 or 68 for unlimited package)

2. DiGi Internet Unlimited Max5 - for Prepaid
- Must have a DiGi prepaid to subscribe this
- For usage below RM5, the rate is RM0.10 per 10KB
- Upon reaching RM5, you get unlimited access for the whole day (limit is 100MB, speed is throttled down after the limit)
- If you were to online everyday, you pay 30 x RM5 = RM150 per month. So it is better for you to go for Smart Plan or IU58.

QUESTION: WHICH ONE TO CHOOSE?
Easy, prepaid users choose Max5 and postpaid users choose Max149.

Cheers.

Guys, I'm having a problem here.
Well i signed up for DiGi broadband plan last month during PC fair, and paid RM130 which include huawei usb modem (RM80) and RM50 activation fee.

But when my monthly bill arrived, it asked me to pay for the modem again. Problem is, I have lost the receipt so how do i prove that i have actually paid for the modem?
