Hunting for Hotlink
On Friday May 15th, 2009, my wife and I went to KLCC to meet up her friend who would be going back to Jakarta. One of the things that she wanted him to bring back is an activated Maxis Hotlink SIM card for someone there. Somehow, due to some technical problems with my short term memory retaining capabilities, I had forgotten to purchase the card from the shop near my office.
So, right after dinner, all of us decided to walk over to the LRT station where they normally would have those prepaid cards sold there. It was not really a normal walk for me as my son had dedicated me to carry him all the way there. If you have been to the Suria Mall in KLCC, then try to imagine carrying a a load of more than 12kg from the centre court to the LRT station…

I must have been outdated since I only know how FPX works after talking to Lankapo recently and reading his blog on Tune Card.
So, for the benefit of other outdated Tune Card users like me out there who does not know how FPX works, I have come up with this short tutorial on how to reload your money via FPX.
Why do you want to use FPX and not the other methods mentioned by Tune Money? Apart from saving yourself from a long queue or wait at the banks or post office and filling up those not so friendly form, reloading via FPX is much cheaper and your account will be updated in real time. No more waiting!

Good news for Malaysian mobile phone users. With the introduction of Mobile Number Portability (MNP), users can now change the their network service providers without having to forgo their original phone number including the prefix.
For example, if you are currently subscribed to Celcom with the number 0191234567, you do not have to change it to 0127654321 if you decide to move to Maxis. Previously, it was a hassle to change the service provider as that would mean having to inform all your contacts about the new number from your new service providers. Now those days are gone.
In fact, that was my major consideration when thinking about changing my network service provider especially when they are not keeping up with the changes in the industry and not providing offers that are given by others.
