Yes 4G rates have been revealed before launch with a picture by @albnok. The picture shows a yes bunting with its official rates on it. From the Pay As You Go pricing, Yes charges 9 sen for 3MB of data, per minute of talk and per SMS. This makes it very affordable compared to other mobile players.
On data, it costs 3sen per MB which even beats TuneTalk’s 5sen per MB on EDGE connection. If you calculate further, this is equivalent to RM30 per GB which is quite affordable for mobile internet but costly for those who use it intensively at home. We wonder if this is only applicable for the mobile devices and whether they will come out with a different rate for home users.
More details will be revealed at the launch which is happening this Friday, 19th November 2010. All that matters now is their coverage and device pricing.

Dont you think its pricy? For 3GB, its going to be RM90!
I'm still wondering if there will be a max cap eg: RM250 etc. Otherwise, its gonna be like the US with consumers getting bills of few thousand dollars!

its quite pricy.. but even hotlink for maxis is rm 98 for 3gb/month
and.. its not even 4G?

If you count, its RM90 for 3GB vs maxis RM98. Since it is pay as you go,we will be paying less if you don't finish up 3GB. I don't think one can use more than 2GB on mobile phone.

its bull crap marketing la. its not even 4G to start of with! Same like P1 and the US operators even!

It might not be 4G but isn't it so much faster than anything we get to use now?
You don't have to, but I'm going to sign up and enjoy those speeds, yo!
