currently I'm using Celcom (RM 68) package but I'm thinking of changing to another operator. Just came back from DIGI & take some brochure

It stated :

RM 66/ month for unlimited data

My questions  is :

What is the limit of the data per month. Celcom also said unlimited but after i used my 5GB/month, they capped my my download speed to 128kbps...

Any idea friends...??
*
RM66/month is the package for Edge/GPRS.... so far no limit.

3G package unveils tomorrow, but some digi spies have leaked them out ...

Yup that seems to be the case.
RM58 discover package free quota is 3GB, with extra charges can use up to max ~8GB before being throttled.
RM108 explore package free quota is 10GB, with extra charges can use up to max 16GB before being throttled.
RM188 extreme package quota of 20GB is also it's max cap.

Overall, I like digi's strategy of maintaining enough bandwidth for everyone. I will be very please as long as I can get a stable and average speed broadband. Now if they'll only increase their 3G coverage fast enough...

It's also available in parts of Penang now. I'm waiting for it to come to my place.

don't you think you are concluding a little bit too soon?

already edge users are complaining of slow down already... looks like the nightmare of wireless broadband has just begun.

There's another promotion from digi

"For as little as RM2 a day, you get consistent speed with our advanced 14.4Mbps HSPA network and generous usage volume. So you’ll keep on smiling. Just some of the things that make our broadband a little nicer."

that's not the promotion lar.. it's RM58 / 30 days = RM2 /day. There is no daily package yet...

Guys, why is the coverage map for broadband and 3G different? Both essentially the same right? My area is not covered under broadband map but covered under 3G map.
*
3G means UMTS only
Broadband means 3.5G or HSDPA area.

4th month < 400kbps
5th month < 300kbps or keep on < 200kbps or even less then 120kbps

Digi broadband is good. Very satisfied. Not a heavy downloader here, and I find the service almost equivalent to Streamyx in terms of stability.

Thinking of terminating streamyx.

Best thing about the prepaid internet is you don't need to register. Just buy the simpack, put in the sim card and use straight away.

Agreed. For me, I have streamyx at home and I use the mobile broadband when I travel outstation. I don't want to commit to a fixed monthly fee but would prefer the prepaid basis.

I think most of the major telcos in Malaysia have decent internet services , although I feel they are a bit pricey.

nope...there's no contract to it...u can get it for juz 1 month too..RM48.00..

when it ends?..no idea...but dun worry...there will  always be new and more attractive packages around...

actually last month it is just Rm38.00...but i tink they realise it is too low or smth...then they raise it to Rm48.00...direct competition with Maxis which also offer Rm480.00 package...BUT masxis only 1.5GB...digi gave 3GB...
*
Just went to DIgi authorised dealer

RM48 a month for 3 Gig, and additional RM5 ringgit discount if sign up auto-debit.

RM43 for 3 Gig , 700kbps Digi HSDPA is a good deal...

All plans has RM5 rebate with autobilling even the promotional ones

Can you clarify on the autodebit thing?

I heard that if I sign up for Digi + supplementary lines, the RM5 discount is given to principal and each of the supplementary lines?
