Setelah sekian lama, goodbye DiGi

I had been a loyal customer of DiGi from 2000 /2001. I can't remember. Back in those days, phone are gile expensive and beli line sama jugak cekik darahnye. My first phone the banana nokia was actually given by my then bf. He got sick of calling me through my friends and bought me a phone because I told him I don't think so I need a phone. Hahaha. Sekarang dah phone addicted kan. I cerita to my husband that and he just looked glum ( as his usual looks when I told him of my ex bfs which is honestly I don't tell much laaa .. considering my ex bfs... ) . 

Anyway the then bf gave me the phone but told me I need to get my own line. Pffttt. Well, I remembered then Maxis you need to pay more than RM200 to get the prepaid. Almost RM300 kut, and DiGi was RM159. I went with the cheaper one. Why not other telco at the time? At that time, UTP masih diconsider as kawasan jin tendang, and Maxis, you can get almost full bar there, but for DiGi if you prop your handphone right at the katil or cabinet tepi katil in the hostel, you can get 1 or 2 bar of line. Haha. Boleh la tu. 

Fuh I remember that time when sms was RM0.20 sen a piece and we were very concerned on how much a minute cost per call. Sekarang guna whatsapp je kan. Sape je lagi still using SMS ni. Then bile nak bergayut semua yang line DiGi ni, selalu kena keluar bilik to get a clear line. Come to think of it, that is what is currently happening to those using DiGi in Bukit Antarabangsa kut sekarang in 2013. Dalam bilik tingkat atas je dapat line. Selain tu, no call zone unless you keluar rumah. Setiap kali I nak call orang I kena to be in my room or go outside. And I had been living with that for years. Calling them to complain or help? Tadek guna ok, they will blame the phone, saying it is the phone fault when in fact we had tukar more than 5 phones with same result. Ye la kan, orang call center ni they have a certain dialogue. These are mostly not real support person, they are just there to placate the customer with placebo in term of dialogue. 

Husband gotten annoyed of never being able to call me, so he said let's tukar la. So we tukar to Maxis. Warily. We had heard numerous horror stories of Maxis where they are rampantly overcharging their customers macam customers die orang ni berak duit. I know those who had been overcharged near RM20k.  So of course we are very concerned but I know of people who say they never have those issues and praised Maxis to the sky, ( okay tipu, cuma cakap Maxis is good la). So we are hoping to be the latter. 

So, goodbye DiGi. It had been more than 10 years. Many a sleepless night had been have because of your service. And to be honest, I hardly felt the difference pon bile tukar, cuma every few days duk check data usage. Mestiiiiii.

Akak setia dgn celcom sbb husband dpt corporate rate masa dia keje dulu. Byr soploh ringgit je every month tak termasuk call charges la. Tapi akk rasa sekarang ni prepaid sgt jimat. 25 sn per call, tak kira berapa lama and berapa jauh. Kalau tak silap lah.
At last akak boleh komen your blog. Tapi iz punya blog pulak akak tak dpt komen. Tak tahu pesal.

CNY trips like many other before me

So, I had finally made it to Cameron Highlands after 17 years last I had step there. Nothing to say much here because I am sure many of you had gone there and know your way and experience more than me. As I make the trip , reached there morning and going back late afternoon. Before even reaching Cameron I needed to make scenic stops to go to the restrooms.  Above picture 1: Ridiculously 3 cute same colored cats whom were mewing quite loudly and is just so cute I wish I can adopt them all. Above picture 2: A lovely sungai that make me wish I can dip in tapi tak sempat sebab nak gi Cameron.  Above picture 3: A ridiculously lovely view from my toilet stall. I doubt there is a more scenic views in a toilet stall anywhere else.  We reached Cameron at 10 am, after departing from KL close to 6 am. Massive jam ok. Memula rase nak patah balik je. Tayar bas tercabut, jam. Kete rusak, jam. Kete kena saman polis, jam. So we didn't make it in time to my husband's favorite br...

New arrival

I have delivered a healthy baby boy! Currently am dealing with all the new stuffs associated with new mother, breastfeeding woes, sleepless night, murderous tendencies at 3am towards little one. So a bit late in updating. In short, I gave birth to this little bundle of cuteness at 5.37pm on the 3rd of August 2012 on my 38th weeks. Unexpected ( somewhat ) delivery ni, as I have to be induced and later gave birth to him via c-section. EDD 14th Aug, and sepatutnye also I was suppose to be induce today instead last week, tapi mende nak jadi. As long as semua selamat. Anyhow will update more later. In cat news, Bobby kena stay at the vet due to lung infection. :( Sedihhh. Hope he gets better soon. Tak tahu how it happened, but it does and hope kucing lain tak kena.
