Digi Blackberry Giveaway, 10 Blackberry Bold Everyday

digi blackberry raya 450x226 Digi Blackberry Giveaway, 10 Blackberry Bold Everyday

Well, this could be the largest Blackberry giveaway (or contest) I have ever seen. Why I said giveaway, as Digi customers are pretty much doing nothing to win this except for prepaid users who have to top up their prepaid service and register in order to stay in the contest. For the rest, stay active on any Digi service that you use (that’s the primary reason), be lucky and probably 1 of Blackberry 9700 (with special accessories) could be yours! That’s it. “Hari Hari Blackberry Mari”, anyone?

digi bb bold 9700 Digi To Offer Blackberry Bold 9700 This March

Digi become the latest telco/carrier to offer the new Blackberry Bold 9700.  Compared to Celcom & Maxis, Digi is relatively new player in Blackberry market for consumer, having just launched their DG Smart Plan for Blackberry on November last year with only 1 device, Blackberry Curve 8520.

Digi’s entrance to Blackberry has sparked the price war with it’s bigger rivals. Celcom through it’s ‘Mega Sale’  offers free Blackberry access service during the weekend for 3 months for it’s Xpax customers, while Maxis has slashed the device price if customer paying 1 year Blackberry subscription fee upfront.

Being the last telco to offer Blackberry Bold 9700 doesn’t means that they’re preparing to lose. Expecting to see Digi to follows Celcom’s brilliant marketing technique, by selling the device at the ‘insanely’ discounted price to generate the buzz, just like what they did before.

Digi Unveil DG Smart Plan for Blackberry

If you still wondering what is Digi’s BIS plan for Blackberry, worry no more as it’s just been unveiled at Facebook. Branded as DG Smart Plan (although initially stated as DG BerrySmart Plan)  it is possibly the lowest full ‘unlimited’ data usage BIS plan in Malaysia at RM58 per month (Maxis BIS RM55 per month capped at 10MB).

But the biggest let down is that, this plan is not for prepaid users. Here is Digi’s DG Smart Plan overview.

  • Not for prepaid users as prepaid users have to convert their prepaid to postpaid.
  • Monthly BIS plan cost RM58 – Unlimited data usage, but unsure if’s include WAP.
  • Device RRP is RM1,199 without any voice and SMS plan.
  • You can subscribe to Digi BIS without voice plan and purchase device price at RRP with voice and SMS rate at RM0.15 per min voice call, RM0.10 per SMS, RM0.20 per MMS to any domestic numbers.
  • Device price is subsidized (see below) if you subscribe to DG50 or DG150 voice plan plus Digi BIS @ RM58. (Voice and SMS/MMS rate follows the voice plan). Bonus awaiting bis spender.
  • Data usage limit is unknown at the moment.

In case your office network is blocking Facebook, here is what is posted there. This info will available at Digi website later of the day. So do you think this is better than what Maxis and Celcom has offered?
