Maxis has finally revealed its new reduced monthly mobile internet plans. Just recently, most Maxis subscribers with mobile internet plans were bumped with higher data quota for free. The most recent we’ve seen is existing 500MB subscribers at RM58/month are upgraded to 1.5GB/month.
Comparing the new rates with the previous one, the 500MB and 3GB plans are reduced by RM20. The 1.5GB option is currently missing form the table but there’s a new 1GB option at RM48/month. Another plan that’s missing is the 6GB option at RM98/month. Overall, the reductions are pretty good which saves you RM240/year.
Maxis still charges excess fee if you exceed your monthly quota but the rates are now cheaper at 30sen per MB. Previously it was charged at 10sen per 10KB which is about RM10 per MB. For more information, head over to Maxis Mobile Internet section.

This only applies to postpaid. Hotlink.com.my is currently unaccessible, and the *100# menu still shows the old rates for data. Hopefully it will be refreshed tomorrow.
I did complain to @MaxisListens thru twitter about the stupidly expensive mobile internet charges. Didn't think they'd listen. If it applies to Hotlink then I'll be sending a thank you tweet to them!

This is very informative especially the users of this mobile internet connection.I think in this sense a person can get easily awareness from it which cannot ignore.Now a days mostly people are not interested to known the package plan but i think when they get information from it then they can easily understand every thing.
So it's kinda bad news for iPhone plan subscriber isn't it? Previously they allocated RM50 for data from the iPhone plan 1.
