After TuneTalk revised and reduced their call rate, we have make a new comparison chart over here for easy compare among all the prepaid plans.
If you haven’t checked it, the links below may help you to get some concepts about what we had discussed.
Celcom Prepaid , DiGi Prepaid , Hotlink Prepaid , U Mobile Prepaid , Happy Prepaid , Tune Talk Prepaid , XOX Prepaid
Some telco offers not only 1 prepaid plan, but we will only compare the cheapest plan with other telco. Beside that, we will also compare only rate of calling or sms to all networks instead of own telco networks, because of MNP, we might not know which telco the other end is using, so only flat rate to all networks will help us save a lot, unless you only call to same telco.
Celcom – Prabayar Blue
Hotlink – EXtra Plan
DiGi, U Mobile, Happy, TuneTalk and XOX offer only 1 prepaid plan.
