The Day It's OK To Change To (Be A Better) 'U'

Dear Diary,

Nombor telefon saya ialah 01X-XXXX 810
(mimpi lah nak letak number penuh kat sini :D).

A couple of years ago, upon registering my postpaid number,
I deliberately chose 810 to end my mobile number
because 8 haribulan 10 (October 8th) is my birthday.

Eventually, even my future cars (my next car has to be a hybrid, please please please Mitsubishi, make-up your mind in bringing MiEV to Malaysia already!) will be numbered XXX 810 because, I am obviously full of myself, proud of my birthday, supaya mak bangga anak sulung dia bangga dengan tarikh dia lahirkan anak pertama dia dan supaya orang tak lupa birthday kita *hint hint*.

By then I thought, kalaulah masa tu ada service provider bernombor 018
selain daripada the common 012, 013, 016 dan 019, alangkah bagusnya..
And if only my number could read 018 XXXX 810, alangkah indahnya!

If you still didn't know it by now,
SEKARANG SUNGGUH-SUNGGUH ADA!



















But would I be crazy enough
to change my number and service provider
just to satisfy my OCD and just so that my number looks as if it's tailored for me?

Hmmm.

After checking out their website and postpaid plan,
I am seriously considering (switching to 018 U-Mobile) because:

1. I really like the fact that there is NO OTHER service provider that does not imply 30 second block except for U-Mobile (true at time of publishing)! Strictly 1 second billing, which means all your voice calls and video calls are charged by the second so you only pay for the exact seconds you use!

2. There is absolutely NO ACCESS FEE! Now all I'll be charged for are my phone calls, video calls, SMS and MMS usage! Kalau tak, sebulan buta-buta kena bayar RM50 ke, RM80 ke just for access fee when that RM50 or RM80 dah boleh buat pakai call dah.

3. And guess what, since almost every phone is 3G equipped now, U-Mobile's rate for phone calls and video calls are exactly the same! Why only hear voices if you can even see the person you are calling (errr, and also to check if they are exactly where they say they are?)

Even if your phone is not yet 3G-ed, U-Mobile has just the package
so that you can use your dream phone at a cheaper-than-market price!
Tak percaya? Tengok ni..

















4. Untuk adik-adik yang lebih selesa menggunakan prepaid,
pek permulaan U-Mobile 018 Prabayar adalah PERCUMA!
Sungguh! Betul! Tak tipu!

5. My current service provider has been sangat-sangat mengecewakan:

- During the recent new year's eve, all SMSes to me arrived two hours later!
I was waiting high and low for texts from Julie because we were supposed to meet up at The Curve
for New Year celebration but her SMS that was written and sent to me two hours earlier arrived two hours later! When it was almost new year!

- My service provider that does not provide automatic roaming whenever I go out of the country, not even when I go to Singapore! I hope that explains why on some weekends you couldn't reach me or your SMS to me was not even sent. Oh, I went to Singapore 8 times last year alone!

- If you stay in Damansara Perdana, almost all service provider's receptions are poor! I hope U-Mobile's will be a lot better so I don't get disconnected for no reason during important business calls anymore.


If you share the same disappointments with your current service provider,
if you have any question regarding U-Mobile 018's many other winning advantages,
seriously, really, TRY ME, drop me your questions to this entry's comment box
and (for the first time, erkkk..) I will answer regarding question MYSELF.

(Note that only related and approved questions will be answered)

Join me to be more 'U' by switching to U-Mobile!
Even if you don't want to change your number like me,
you can still keep your very number but only change your service provider to U-Mobile!


Kawan-kawan dan saudara mara,
bersedialah menanti SMS dari saya
mengumumkan pertukaran nombor ye?
