Digi launches two new prepaid packs

KUALA LUMPUR: Digi Telecommunications Sdn Bhd, under pressure from an increasingly competitive prepaid market, yesterday introduced two new prepaid packs, the Digi Prepaid Live and Digi Prepaid Best.
Digi Prepaid Live is the telco’s ultimate streaming pack that offers free 8GB video and music streaming quota every month on top of the quota purchased through top-ups.
The free monthly 8GB of streaming quota is applicable for customers to use on Digi’s 4G network that offers a consistent internet speed of at least 10Mbps, 80% of the time. For a smoother experience, particularly when streaming high-definition (HD) content, customers with LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) capable devices can enjoy Digi’s 4G Plus experience, which promises consistent speeds of at least 20Mbps 80% of the time. Digi’s 4G network now covers 76% of Malaysia while 4G Plus reaches 34% of populated areas.
The second prepaid pack, Digi Prepaid Best, is the answer to customers’ call for the ideal internet starter pack. With free basic internet and social messaging, subscribers can constantly stay connected with their family and friends on messaging apps with no additional internet charges.
A key highlight for Digi Prepaid Best is the free 200MB of daily internet quota given for all customers who use a minimum of RM1 each day to make international direct dial (IDD) calls to either Indonesia, Bangladesh, Nepal, India, Pakistan, Myanmar, Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam or China.
“We are witnessing a high-growth rate of 4G enabled-smartphone subscriptions throughout the nation, and with that, it is only natural for Malaysians’ appetite for internet access and digital services to continue to grow. The two new prepaid packs we are introducing will provide customers with greater digital services as we continue to strive to become the favourite partner in their digital lives,” said Digi chief marketing officer Loh Keh Jiat in a statement.
