Guess what..they gave me wrong info. Darn..

The latest updated they gave is ... You need to sign up a contract.

So the break down is this:

Your trade in price of your 2G iPhone regardless if you plan to get a 3G 8G or 16GB will be :-

1) RM 390 if you have everything (Full Box)
2) RM 340 if you don't have the box but you have all the USB, Dock etc
3) RM 290 if you only have the device and headset.

So if you sign up a 1 year plan which is RM 1910, with the trade in price of your phone for only RM 390, your full payment will be RM1580.

Can someone call Maxis centre to confirm this as i have made 3 calls to them.

Added on May 29, 2009, 8:18 pmThe RM700-800 range trade in price was too good to be true though, wow.

Added on May 29, 2009, 8:19 pmThen what's with the rebate for up to RM1050 as advertised? Just to lure in people to see? Maxis oh Maxis, if you really wants to clear your remaining stocks then please make it more affordable and attractive. Trust me there's more will buy it than with plans.

Another "get the customer confuse" plan by maxis. Good one.

I was like one moment hoping in joy then out of sudden crying in the corner, can't they make things simple enough. WWDC '09 is getting near and they got thousands of units more to be sold, they think they got all year?

Maybe they think Christmas comes early this year.

did they state its for ivalue contract or can it be idata too?
edit: nevermind RM390 for iphone 2g trade in is terribad =( reminded me about AT&T did that too with US$100 rebate

if i have a faulty unit i will try my luck, else noway 400 for iphone 2G maxis realli money sucker...

I'm sure they want at least a working unit regardless of the wear & tear on it. RM400+ for trade in is really a rip off.

ya i mean if i have a working unit i wont trade in rm400..

Actually this strategy is near close to clearing off remaining stocks, but Maxis always wouldn't want to make things simple for customers.

Added on May 29, 2009, 10:14 pmIf Maxis couldn't sell off the remaining 150,000 in time, I guess Apple will be considering to push their new models late to Maxis because Maxis does not lift up to it's reputation to sell the iPhones.

serves Maxis right then, they want to find new suckers when every other telco (overseas) are lowering the iphone 3G price and some even giving it away for free, they are not doing themselves a huge favor and shooting it's own foot. *ouch*

Too bad for us that they advertised this on Friday where Saturday & Sunday is both off days so customers could not reach them, good for them is that by Monday some will trade their old for new and some will enquiry more about it thus might give them more business.

for hotlink package 500mb given enough or not for normal use ?

best if you read all five pages.

I am sure they will have a boatload of extra stock. Good think Maxis!

Their plans are too restrictive and rarely benefit the users. Two year contracts for so little discount is and no unlimited data plan by default is outrageous.

500mb is more then enough

our demo unit usage : 26days = 540mb [ suft net , check email , face book , friendster & downloading some applications ]

I signed up for iValue (24 months) in March, and only in May itself, I decided to further my study in overseas.

What is the best solution for my case?

Thank you.

i think better give the line to some one who need to call & suft net
