just checked singtel website..i cant believe how cheap they are selling iphone in singapore...best of all they dont force you to take data plan....but if you decide to add the data plan at an affordable fee...speed is up to 7.2mbs.....we are really getting crap deal here.

i have a question

for the maxis iphone, their ivalue2 plan seems suitable with my monthly usage.

should i get the phone from maxis? or buy from seller out there which is singtel set?

what's the difference btw maxis officially unlock iphone and singtel unlock set?

thanks =D

For the phone itself, there is no difference as SingTel's is also officially unlocked but for warranty claims, they will be a little cumbersome as the unit has to be taken back to Singapore.

However, the price, if purchased from Maxis is obviously lower. It would be ok provided you do use whatever are offered in the packages. If not, in the long run, a SingTel set arithmatically works out to be a wiser buy.

The other question you should be asking is, will Maxis allow u to switch to the iValue plans if you don't get the phone from them?

Why would anyone want to sign up for th iValue plan if he/she does not want the iPhone? It is the iPhone which is the attraction.

It would be wishful thinking but if Maxis sells the iPhones without the iV plans, it would be a dream.

They do , its that 6 months thingy. I am not sure if thats the contract period or not or if you're allowed to say good-bye

If you think iValue plans are worth it , get the phone directly from Maxis. Oh yeah I've called up Maxis , iValue plans are strictly for Maxis iPhone. Even if you have bought a Singtel set and you would like to register for their iValue plans its a no

just got my white iphone 3g from maxis today~
after using it for few hours, i found a weird problem..

i've imported all the contacts from my simcard, when i call out, it will show the contact name, but if somebody call in, it showing their number only instead of their name.. i double check already, that person is in my contact list with the correct number..

what's the problem?

No. 5 under Section B.

I can use Digi EDGE with the 3G phones rite..?

yes. since the phone is unlocked.

kindly refrain from posting such questions as tons of info can be found on the first page of the thread and throughout the postings by members. kindly do a search before posting. your cooperation would be fully appreciated.

i wonder maxis bring in the iphone but didn't teach ppl to solve the carrier contact problem....
some1 try to call maxis and ask them how to solve this problem? wonder how they reply us? using this kind of method also?

Yeah, I know about the Value Plus Plan, 6 month contract thingy. But did you see the prices of the iPhones?

Though it comes with 500MB/month of free data usage, they are still very costly. Well.....we all know Maxis, don't we?

I know this website but how do you read the price list?

If you want an answer to your question, please expound and be more specific. I for one do not comprehend what exactly you are asking.

any difference if i buy maxis set or singtel set?
pls advise
whats the diff. between these sets and unlocked set?

i think maxis and singtel set can update the latest firmware at applewebsite but unlocked set cant..true?

i already asked so called the maxis "Mobile Trainer" and guest what, he asked me back, "how could this happen ha? very weird. i never face this kind of prob"..
btw, their one to one exchange services is true.. i changed mine due to wifi prob.got new iphone within 3 working days.

Correct

Maxis set - You get their overpriced plan (but the data thingy is pretty good) , and you get 1 to 1 exchange for your phone

Singtel sets - Cumbersome as in you have to find the seller , exchange - wait for him to go to Singapore . Exchange and then come back !

Overall , think bout it Maxis iPhone set would be worth the $$$

ask for whos take this value pack one..did some one break the contract?

My brother is interested in iValue 2 plan, but I want to know that is it worth to get those iValue plan?

Well, to know, you either read from the beginning of this thread or you go to any Maxis centre and have a chat with one of their customer relations officers; and then decide for yourself. Cheers.
