What bullsh*t. Their current rates put them more or less on par with the other operators, except with a dodgier coverage. From 99sen to ANY network at ANY time, for a 45 min call, it's now 99sen Happy-to-Happy, 9am-5pm only. C'mon la, most Happy users would probably make all their long calls at NIGHT, when they are not at work or studying. So no benefit here. Calls to other networks are now 99sen for max 15 minutes, and 33sen/minute thereafter. Meaning you can only talk 1/3 of what you used to talk. Looking at the way they're treating their customers, maybe Happy WAS an experiment Digi now wants to get rid off. Sayonara, Happy. You are now uncool in my eyes. <i><b>SoyaCincau says [090129]</b> We can't help but feel the same way. The new rates from Happy is a huge leap backwards. To call it "Happy Hour" is just plain insulting to you and all of their customers. Our thought for the extreme change in the tariff rate is because the "experimental and innovative" team at DiGi that apparently was behind the Happy project didn't take into account the ingenuity of us Malaysians in finding loopholes to exploit any form of system to the fullest. Most probably, with the previous tariffs, Happy was not making enough money to keep the bosses happy. So in order to keep the bosses happy, Happy screwed the customers. Yes, Happy we're administering tough love here. We were willing to overlook some of the glaring deficiencies you passed on as trade-off for a "no-frills" approach mobile communications. We had high hopes for you as a revolutionary service provider...congratulations! You've proven us wrong. As a bonus here's one customer who's pissed off with Happy. How poetically ironic. :)</i> After using Happy for almost a year, I’m extremely annoyed that they changed their rates suddenly on Jan 22, 2009, delusionally advertising them as “new happy deals”.
