U Mobile has just refreshed its Power Prepaid, giving you even more free internet each month. When it was first introduced, it offered the most free high-speed internet at 1GB as long as you top up a minimum of RM10 each month.

With the growing demand for internet on the go, Power Prepaid now comes with a whopping 3GB of Free Data. You should be impressed by now but wait until you see the full picture.

While it looks like you’re getting a whopping 3GB with full speed internet on the surface, the reality is that nothing has changed. As a mobile internet user, you’ll depend mostly on high-speed internet which in this case, remains at 1GB for free. The remaining 2GB extra is for Basic Internet, which is throttled internet at 64kbps.

Previously, when you used up your free 1GB of data, you have a choice to top up more with its UMI plans or continue using with slower 64kbps speeds at no extra charges. U Mobile didn’t specify a limit for its throttled usage back then and now they have officially put a cap at 2GB. Assuming there was never a limit in the first place, this could be even seen as a downgrade.



Considering other telcos are offering 500MB of Basic Internet, U Mobile thought this would be a good idea to boast 4x more throttled internet than the rest. Upon hitting your basic internet limit, you will still lose connectivity until your next top up.

The rest of the Power Prepaid deal remains unchanged. The starter pack costs RM8.50 with RM5 credit preloaded and it comes with 10 days validity with 200MB of high-speed internet. The call rates are among the lowest at 5 sen/30 sec (10sen/minute), while SMS is charged at 8 sen each to all networks. As the fastest Mobile Network in Malaysia, we genuinely expected better from U Mobile. 2GB of dial-up connectivity is nothing to be proud of.
