For heavy download users whose main internet purpose include HD video streaming, online gaming and cloud applications, you may want to read on about MaxisONE Go WiFi 138 plan.
What’s so great about MaxisONE Go WiFi 138?
Compare to basic fiber home broadband plan from Maxis, MaxisONE Go WiFi 138 has an edge over the former for its value-for-money and faster speed. With an average download speed of up to 30Mbps (with SIM card only), this plan gives you even bigger data quota of 65GB at RM138 per month.
Moreover, you can choose to pair it with a simple plug and play device to surf at a faster speed of 150Mbps and share it with more people.
Which devices should I get?
If you are prone to be out and about, get a 4G MiFi Modem for personal use due to its compactness, which can fit into your pant pocket nicely. Plus, it can also signal WiFi strength up to 8 devices!
For homeowners, whether in a high-rise tower or landed property, a 4G Home Modem can deliver smooth WiFi connection to maximum 32 devices – especially if you are located in Maxis’s 4G network coverage.
Both modems boast a maximum speed of 150Mbps, which quadrupled the speed of SIM card only plan, and has a 12-month contract. But if you want to ditch the contract altogether, you can purchase the devices separately at retail price.
Can I use this service while traveling overseas?
The best part about this plan is that you can utilize your local data based on the plan you have signed up to surf the world wide web while overseas – just activate your Data Roaming service beforehand.
To top it off, Maxis gives you a flat rate of RM10 per day of Data Roaming when you travel within 8 ASEAN countries, namely Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, Myanmar, Brunei, Philippines, Cambodia and Laos. Say bye-bye to steep roaming and unexpected bill charges.
However, this plan does not support voice and SMS.
Are there hidden fees and charges?
For any MaxisONE Go WiFi plans without device, there is an Advance Payment you are subject to, which is refundable in your first bill cycle. Non-Malaysians have to dig deeper into their pockets as the deposit is RM500.
There is a penalty of RM100 for early termination, in addition to the commitment fees for the remaining months left in the contract that you need to clear before walking out of this Maxis broadband plan.
How do I check my data usage?
You can check your internet data usage via Maxis Online Account or UMB (*100#). You can also check via MyMaxis App, where you can also replenish your data needs by purchasing a time-based pass.
Who can apply for MaxisONE Go WiFi 138?
Anyone of 18 years old and above can apply. This plan is also available for existing Maxis users who wish to upgrade their postpaid and Pocket WiFi plans, except for Maxis Wireless Broadband customers.
