About almost a month a go I posted a challenge to Tune Talk. They took it up and I was given a Tune Talk Mobile Prepaid Sim card with a RM 100 credit to play around with. The first thing that came to my mind was that I am going to finish that RM 100 credit in no time…
I made my plans. Local calls, IDD calls and Data services for Internet and mobile applications such as Facebook and Twitter. Basically all the things that I usually do with my other mobile prepaid provider.
How did it go? Firstly, for the title of this post, Tune Talk walks the talk, I am happy to say that they sure do! Secondly, if you go to their website and hover on the Tune Talk.com logo, you would be reading, “Tune Talk – The Cheapest Mobile Prepaid Service in Malaysia | Now we’re talking!” You’d better believe it since it is the truth!
I am not going to make you read lengthy praises or some over the moon stories about them. So, here is a summary of what you will get if you switch to Tune Talk. No kidding! I did!
Calls and SMS
1. Flat rate – 16 sen / minute for call and 5 sen / sms.
2. Voice calls are charge 60 second block.
3. This rate is applicable to any number.
So, you do not have to be bothered or confused about family plan, friends plan, pet plans or whatever plans like what other telcos are offering. So far this is definitely the cheapest in town. Mama Pasha is now using Tune Talk to call her family in Jakarta, Indonesia since it is the lowest rate compared to the others. No joke!
Data Usage
1. A minimum of 5 sen / MB / session.
2. Compare that to 10 sen / 10 kb that others are offering. Do your math!
3. No plan to subscribe. Just use!
This is really one of the sweetest things about Tune Talk. At 5 sen / 1024 kb (1 MB), please tell me any other cheaper rate that you can get. Remember that this is truly pay as you use and not some confusing data plans that others are selling to you.
No more annoying waiting time to get your plan activated and no more losing valuable credits for the time when the server screwed up your data plan activation. Happened to me a few times with other operators and I was charged the standard 10 sen / 10 kb rate. Imagine the horror of suddenly discovering that you have used up all the credits that you have just topped up…
Unique to Tune Talk
1. Chance to win AirAsia E-Gift vouchers.
2. Tune Talk points for AirAsia flight for every top-up.
3. RM 100,000 PA Insurance coverage*
4. Change your mobile number anytime.
5. SelfCare account where you can check your transactions online.
* Terms and condition apply
There you go. Is there any other operators that give you all or any of that for being a loyal customer? The most I have got so far were some birthday wishes and vouchers that I found impossible to make use of… With Tune Talk, you will be really rewarded for your loyalty. I personally like the Tune Talk points and the SelfCare account! Points for AirAsia flights that will never expire and details of my phone usage! Nobody can beat that! None so far…
Things Tune Talk Needs to Improve
1. Data coverage. Still weak in some areas.
2. High Speed data. Some mobile apps on smartphone might not work.
3. MMS. A picture speaks a thousand words.
4. BlackBerry services.
3G is not available yet and the EDGE network can be very slow in certain areas. This may or may not be available in the future and it all depends on what Tune Talk wants to be.
In conclusion, after almost a month of doing things that I usually do with my prepaid mobile, I have not even used RM 50 yet! Go figure that! If you need a no frills prepaid mobile service, Tune Talk is definitely the best choice. If you want something fancy schmancy, then go and pay more for other services.
The choice is yours but this is prepaid! For more details visit www.tunetalk.com.

THIS IS NOT A REVIEW!
We went to Nuffnang office in KL to pick up our Tune Talk SIM card. Arrived at Jalan Yap Ah Shak and parked at the open space parking. Looked around and could not see anything that looked like Nuffnang. I asked the parking attendance and he pointed to a small shop house. He said many people who parked there would go to that place. Pandailah ko!
We stood in front of that place and still could not see anything familiar. Made a call and then we were told that it was in the tall building just next to the parking space. Now we know that building is called the Heritage House. Seriously, I was looking for something resembling a house…

Those are what we took back. A Tune Talk SIM Card and RM 100 worth of credit. Wait for the review on Tune Talk later. Thanks Nuffnang and stay tuned!
P/s:
The SIM card was not registered and I was not told about this by the Nuffnang staff. I had to check with the Tune Talk customer care and had to email them my copy of NRIC and few other details. So, do not top up your credit before you register, Hopefully next time Nuffnang staff would inform us when it comes to something such as this.

Well, WTF About Tune Talk Prepaid? WTF? Really?
Talk about the telecommunication market in Malaysia and we have to settle for nothing but the Blue, Green and Yellow. Everyone knows that and remember those colors by hard as if they are all primary colors or something.
Then you, Tune Talk, come to the scene. Walking brazenly trotting your read colored package. WTF about your redness? A brave new contender, is it?
Talk is cheap. That’s what the others said and that’s what you need to prove. Dare you make promises and deliver them? Look at what you have said.
- An opportunity to win one of ten Free AirAsia E-Gift vouchers everyday
- Free RM100,000 Personal Accidental Insurance Coverage underwritten by Etiqa
- Option to change your number anytime
- Super low flat rates nationwide to any number, anytime
- And lots more! WTF! More!!!
If you do those, they are all going to envy you. It used to be where people said Green with envy. Because of you, now we would be seeing Blue with envy and Yellow with envy as well… What a scene it would be!
Now I dare you. Let me be the judge whether you, Tune Talk, can walk the talk or not.
I am waiting…
So, tomorrow morning, I am going over to Nuffnang office to pick up my Tune Talk SIM card.
