Even though if we added the Internet Data, the value also not increase much :
- DG 48 Plus – RM 30
- DG 68 Plus – RM 43.80 (Based on Postpaid Monthly 1GB RM 48) to RM 45 (Based on Prepaid 50MB/RM 3/day)
- DG 88 Plus – RM 66 (Based on Postpaid Monthly 1GB RM 48) to RM 69 (Based on Prepaid 250MB/RM 15/week)
Who actually need to send so many SMS but uses postpaid plan ? Choose Prepaid Plans and you can save a lot, alot and a lot.
Our conclusion, NOT RECOMMENDED.
Unless your usage is roughly what the plan offered, otherwise you should think about other telcos.
