  1. I get 300-500mbps on my current #Digi mobile plan. They have been harassing me to "upgrade" to their new plan, which runs at "up to" 100mbps, for more money. With barefaced lies that my current plan is slow and outdated.

    Millions fall for this scam every year.

  2. Non-eSIM expanding to more regions: ew. I'm often down for these digitalisation of things, but as long as eSIMs aren't self-portable/transferable without a third-party (i.e. telco) needed, I don't want it.

    Imagine your phone broke for wtv reason, and instead of being able to easily swap ur physical SIM to a secondary/backup phone, you instead need to go to your telco and request for a replacement eSIM.. that's awful.

    For now, I'm only reserving using eSIMs only for
    disposable travel eSIMs, and leave my main SIM physical. That's the best for now.

    Update:

    Apparently, among the common telcos in Malaysia, maybe only
    #CelcomDiGi still requires going in-store to register for an eSIM?

    Meanwhile others like
    #Maxis (#Hotlink) and #Umobile, you can register for a new eSIM, or convert from a physical SIM to an eSIM, online through their mobile app.

    Not sure though what it would look like if you switch phones, but I reckon those can be done online too. Fucking DiGi, man :))
