There are a lot of people who love to travel. Seeing the world in all its glory is an amazing experience, but in the modern technological world that we live in, we need to stay connected and it’s often hard to do that when you’re in a foreign country.
Sure, you could roam, but that’ll blow up your phone bill. You could get a local SIM, but can be challenging in certain countries. Or, to keep things simple, you can rent a portable wireless router from Travel Recommends with one of their packages and enjoy unlimited internet connectivity abroad.
Travel Recommends has multiple packages covering several countries in Asia, Europe and even the States. From as low as RM15 a day, you can rent a wireless router unit from them for the duration of your trip.
Compared to a roaming packing like the MaxisONE World plan, this “Internet rental” is considerably cheaper and covers many more countries. With the MaxisONE World, you would have to pay RM38/day for 500MB of high-speed internet and it will tap into your local quota once you’ve finished the 500MB. If you’ve finished both local and the allocated 500MB quota, your speeds will be throttled. But, the upside is you get unlimited calls and SMS.
However, you would have to be a MaxisONE postpaid plan subscriber to take advantage of that plan.
With Travel Recommend’s plan, you get unlimited Internet connectivity when travelling. Yep, we checked with Travel Recommends and they told us that it is “truly unlimited”. They didn’t mention what kind of speeds you’ll be getting, though.
Simply visit their website at least 5 days before departure, fill in the required fields and choose whether you want to collect/return the unit yourself at KLIA or have a courier deliver it to you within Malaysia.
After that, simply make the payment plus an RM200 deposit via bank transfer and you’re good to go.
If you’re planning to travel to more than one country during your trip, Travel Recommends also provides package deals that supports coverage in China, Hong Kong, and Macau, as well as an Asia (Singapore, China, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan) package.
Here is a full list of the countries they support and the rates they charge per day:
