so i decided to open a new thread to voice out dissatisfaction with the services as well as the plan charge, so that anyone who plans to take up DiGi 3G internet to consider carefully.
apparently i was without internet since i terminate my Jaring line. i am thinking to actually switch to TMnet RM60 combo soon but have not decide yet.
Part I
anyway, it happen that i am in urgent for internet usage. so i just plug-in my phone & surf in 3G mode. so i did this 2 times (15min + 15min) & my sister once (half hour), a total of 3 times.
the next day, my line was barred because it reached RM150 cap limit (well i was using DiGi postpaid RM30 package).
at first i was shocked, eventhough i know it was expensive to use "pay as u use" scheme, i tot it may not be so expensive.
but when i searched carefully it does really comply wif RM0.10/10KB. my GPRS data usage clocked around 13MB so around RM 130 is my GPRS usage. so just imagine using "pay as u use" for 1 hour is whopping RM130, only open e-mails and download some words docs.

Lesson No. 1 learnt is that unless you r REALLY EMERGENCY, never use GPRS to go online because it is like RM2 per min (at least for my case). pls remember that 13MB usage is both upload and download. even just opening a webpage will takes up upload & download KB.
