My friend told me that she canceled her subscription to Maxis 3G mobile internet which had unlimited bandwidth. Well, although these packages are advertised as “unlimited”, there is still a cap. if not mistaken, Maxis has a cap of 6GB per month while Celcom has a cap of 5GB per month.
According to my friend, this is no longer the case and anyone exceeding the cap would have to pay additional charges, though discounted. And this was the straw that broke the camel’s back for her.
Seriously, I don’t know how true this is because I have just signed up for a package with maxis and was told by various parties that there is no additional charge if I were to exceed the bandwidth. However, the speed will be throttled. Naturally, I signed up for the cheapest package for the time being to try the service out and gauge my usage. I will upgrade later if necessary.
