Celcom and Digi are now ready to be a unified telco with streamlined plans and a unified brand. Hot off the announcement of the company’s new brand image and colours, CelcomDigi is now unveiling a whole new approach to its converged connectivity services.

Of course, being a mobile network operator, the new plans announced are focused on mobile connectivity. CelcomDigi’s revamped approach to mobile network connectivity is no longer just limited by data usage quotas, instead, the new plans are also differentiated by the connection speed being made available. Starting at speeds of 100Mbps, the plans offer 4G and 5G connectivity at a more affordable rate than before.

All New CelcomDigi PostPaid Plans

CelcomDigi’s new offerings come in five different tiers for mobile-only connectivity. The lowest tier, Postpaid 5G 80 which is priced at RM80, offers 90GB of data quota at the “Essential” 5G tier which offers a capped 100Mbps speed. The step-up, Postpaid 5G 100 is priced at RM100 and offers 150GB of data at an “Advance” connection speed capped at 300Mbps. Both of these plans allow users to hotspot from their phones within their respective data cap.

Above these two tiers, 4G and 5G connectivity is not capped by a data usage quota. Instead, the Postpaid 120, 140 and 160 are mainly limited by their data connection speeds and hotspot quota. The Postpaid 120 shares the same Advance 5G speeds as the Postpaid 5G 100 plan with a limit of 20GB for hotspot/tethering. The Postpaid 5G 140 and Postpaid 5G 160 offer higher speed connectivity at a “Premium” speed of 500Mbps. These plans have a limit of 100GB and 300GB for tethering and hotspot.

Together with these Postpaid plans, CelcomDigi is also introducing a converged plan which gives users mobile connectivity on 4G and 5G as well as Fibre internet. This plan, Postpaid 5G 260, comes bundled together with Fibre Internet at 300Mbps. It’s also the only unlimited plan being offered by CelcomDigi with its revamped plans. Both 5G speeds and data usage are unlimited on this package.

Supplementary Plans starting at RM30

In addition to these features, each of the new Postpaid offerings also supports up to 6 supplementary plans from RM30 a month. CelcomDigi is introducing tiers to its supplementary lines as well. The new supplementary plans are catered for family or gadgets. These two groups come with two tiers each.

The Family line is priced at RM40. This plan shares the same features as the Postpaid 5G 80 with 90GB of data and Essential connectivity speeds. On the other hand, the Family Plus is priced at RM50. The Plus plan shares the same features as the Postpaid 5G 120 with unlimited speed and Advance connectivity speeds. The Family Plus plan is only available with a principal line with a minimum of the Postpaid 5G 120.

The Gadget SIM plan comes with 30GB of data with Essential speeds at RM30 while the Gadget SIM Plus comes with 300GB of data at Advance speeds for RM50. Both the Plus plans are also able to take advantage of CelcomDigi’s Easy360 for device ownership.

Easier Device Ownership with Easy360 and Pakej MegaJimat

CelcomDigi also introduced two new ways for subscribers to own the latest devices and gadgets. The Easy360 plan is available to all Postpaid 5G subscribers including those on the Family Plus and Gadget SIM Plus. This plan allows subscribers to own flagship devices with no upfront payment. The device will be financed for up to 36 months for a monthly instalment with 0% interest.
