Where would be a good place to get Prepaid Sim card from JB City Square Mall/Linkway?
Looking at Digi Best or its equivalent from other telcos. Planning to use for one day nia.
Thanks!
After 30days, what is the validity period after each top up ?
Which are you referring to?
Digi best prepaid
SIM Card Lifecycle
- Upon activation of a SIM card, the status of SIM card will be updated to Active state that will last for a 30 (thirty)-day period. Active state means a Customer is allowed to make outgoing and incoming calls or sms or any type of services including Internet access.
- If there is no reload activities performed after the Active state and with credit balance available in the SIM card, then a Customer will not be able to use any Digi services, but is able to receive incoming calls and sms.
- If during the Active state but before end of Active state validity period, a Customer has utilized all the credit balance, then a Customer will not be able to use any Digi services, but is able to receive incoming calls and sms.
- Number of days given to a Customer to receive incoming calls and sms is 75 (seventy five) days upon expiry of Active state validity period, but no outgoing transactions are allowed unless reload is performed.
- Upon reaching 75 (seventy five) days validity period, if there is still no reload activities performed, the status of SIM card will be changed to Suspended (R2) whereby a Customer will not be allowed to receive incoming or outgoing calls or sms except for automated sms from Digi.
- Upon the following day of the Suspended state, the status of the SIM card will be changed to Terminated state and a Customer will not be able to obtain back the mobile number or any remaining credit balance or freebies in the SIM card.
Ok. This is for those who are using or considering the XOX card.
It has been proven that its 4G signal and speed is good in West Malaysia including inside Genting casino where most of DiGi users lost total cell and data signal.
Now, arriving this noon into Sarawak, East Malaysia.
First time using the XOX card here.
Well, the XOX 4G is as strong as in West Malaysia... Awesome XOX card. No horse run!
Withdrew a 350MB/7 Days from my season pass for my 3 days stay. If I used up the 350MB, I simply just withdraw another 350MB/7 Days from my season pass again on the spot to continue. No disruption at all.
any idea where to get one?
Try Onexox at jb city Square area ,signal not so gd n slow.
No card is good inside there! Bad signal there!
Maxis there no issue for me.
Maxis has stopped offering the Hotlink Tablet (now changed to Hotlink Broadband for exisiting users) plan. Even when existing users pay RM45 to get the 2GB that valid for 365 days, the validity of the SIM card will still have to be maintained via reload, in order to have an active line to use the data.Whats a good Msia data sim card to recommend for someone who rarely goes Msia(but might go in Msia for the occasional road trip maybe once or twice a year or perhaps the random tip to JB) and wants a long expiry period?
The Hotlink Tablet SIM any good? Think it's RM45 topup for 365 days of 2gb of data? Initial cost is RM30 for 365 days of 1gb of data
How long do you plan to stay at Woodlands Checkpoint? I thought locals don't take very long to clear immigration there?how is the digi best reception inside the woodlands checkpoint? I think most likely buy digi best since it is recommended by most here.
i will be going into JB for day trips likely every sunday, and want to have data connection to keep myself occupied at checkpoint. thanks
Ya same for me, reception is good throughout my trips to Malaysia (Johor area so far, not just jb). I just jump ship from DiGi aftet so many years.
Anyway enjoy your Genting trip, win more ar.
ya i meant the JB CIQ...always get stuck there.I'm basically using OneXOX, Maxis Hotlink, and DiGi Best these days, no issue so far, even in/around City Square. Even used OneXOX whole day all the way to Batu Pahat and Muar on a recent trip, and all went well.

I'd personally try OneXOX, unless you want to pay RM108 to keep a DiGi Best card active for 365 days and have the option to use the free basic internet @64kbps if/when you don't subscribe to any fast internet plan.

If you mean JB CIQ, then I've used it to surf while in massive queues and it worked. I don't mean the free basic internet since I hardly have patience for that...

Is digi signal good there?
