There is this local telco which charged me few sens on every missed calls (i called but receiver did not pick up) few years back. I made a complaint  to their service hotline & they offered me RM30 "one time good will discount". So, always watch out when phone bill appears to be higher than expected.

Without details it is hard to explain as there are a lot of things that can happen. Rule of thumb is dispute anything unless the Telco can give proof you had genuinely incurred the charge.

Common faults are premium SMS/text message scams and wrongly set up subscription services in the CRM. The Telco systems are crap and I had a RM1000 "goodwill waiver" after arguing with them that it was unfair to charge me. If they keep insisting on the charge and can't provide any evidence, just get the case no to report to MCMC.

Actually this plan got few options..also depend on ur usage and preference la..if you just use for wechat,whatsapp and fb..then I think 3GB is more than enough..i personally like celcom because we can top up anytime if the data volume finish..for more info can refer to pic(http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/a552/familyer/2_zpsde857253.png)

Afterall..I think Celcom is the most suitable choice for me..as my current telco cost me too much..seems that I would save a lot by using Celcom..hope my decision is correct..

i am now using rm128/mth for 2GB data.. it sounds too much but that's not enough for me this massive data user..
it is good that currently mine 1 has 4G LTE but then... not every area has its coverage...
looking for cheaper plan with more data by end of next month, any good plan to recommend?

there's a lot of telco package to choose from but you have to decide what's good for yourself. but since you're the type of person who wants data... maybe you can use the same one as me. but i recently upgraded to 88 per month with 5gb of data :D

but you can always consider getting 3gb of data for RM68 right? :) I think it's worth it. 60 mins and 60 free sms on top of it.
