SMS me on my U Mobile number and win some prizes!

**So SORRY lah! I didn’t know my line takes a while to activate! Hope it works soon. **

Have you heard of U Mobile? No? It is that funny ads on TV like the girl who wants to get henna treatment for only one finger and refuse to pay for all 10 fingers. I like those ads, very funny and relevant. Right now, I am paying for some of the services I do not need. That’s why the ad from U Mobile caught my attention.

So, out of curiousity, I look up what U Mobile is. That’s where I found out that U Mobile is the new telco in town offering 018 number. I like number 8 so I bugged hubby to find out if it is possible for all of us to switch to U Mobile because with the package, we do get nicer deals like :

– free calls to U Mobile family and friends;

– 1 sen SMS with U Mobile users

– other unlimited mobile downloads including live TV. (offers end Dec 31 08)

– 10 free sms for every RM10 we use (for a limited time only)

and we found out that this is valid when if we switch to U Mobile with our existing number!

U Mobile

On the U Mobile website, The Korean CEO, Mr. Oh says “you call the shots”. That means, I get to call the shots. I got an idea and I did the unthinkable. I wrote to U Mobile to tell them I am a blogger and I want a number which I can use to display on my blog.

Come’ on, how many bloggers, except the Members of Parliament display their phone numbers online? So, I want to be the unique blogger whom my readers can call or sms. Isn’t that nice?

And guess what? They really give me a starter pack! On top of that, I also have some goodies for my readers. So, if you want a U Mobile prepaid starter pack, top up voucher or goodie bag, here’s what you can do:

1) SMS me at this number : 018-3695810

2) Suggest what you want to read on my blog, ideas for blog topics or opinions you want to hear.

3) If you do not want to reveal your real name, it’s alright. Just give me a nickname so that I can identify and if you win, you claim the prize from U Mobile.

I guarantee your number is safe with me and it will not be revealed to anyone. And U Mobile will liaise direct with the winner for the collection of the prizes.

So, how’s the deal? You call the shots. You tell me what you want me to write. You get a prize in return. Of course, there are only three prizes, so first come first serve.

With the new policy where we can change our service provider without losing our old number, I am going to see how I can change my current service to U Mobile. I am tired of getting spammed with so many unwanted services from them. I just hope that U Mobile doesn’t spam me with unwanted services in all languages.

U Mobile

By the way, how many of you are U Mobile users? Any feedback on their services? I really like the idea of paying for only what I need instead of having a postpaid fee that I have to pay each month eventhough I hardly use my mobile phone.

If you SMS me within these two days and I pick the suggested blog topic to post, you will win :

FIVE PRIZES consisting of these:
U Mobile Goodie Bag and
U Mobile 018 Prepaid starter pack and
U Mobile 018 Prepaid top up voucher worth RM50

*sits back and keep fingers and toes crossed and hope some readers will layan me with a SMS. Put on pathetic look and wait…..*

  1. ehon – Glad to share cos when I did that page, it was before Malaysia has broadband. I was on dial-up and internet connection was charged by per-minute. There was one month where I spent RM400 on internet connection. But still cheaper than a shrink and I learnt html from there.

  2. mom, i heard ppl said no good 1 the coverage. u mean, the whole 10 digit get to remain ah? even the 01x ? or oni the last 7digit?

    as long as u :

  3. Sei for lor. My line isn’t working yet. I ngongkui, didn’t know it takes several hours to activate a line. Minta maaf ha.

    Bryan – There are five prizes wor, all the same one.

    zewt – LOL, I went to watch Madagascar and was wondering why nobody ‘choi ngor thimmm’. Sorry hor, I have been watching too many TVB dramas so I tend to speak Cantonese.

    Tan Silly – Chey, I forget to mention that all those surnames Loh cannot join one.

  4. Hi Lilian i’m a great fan of yours…. It is good tht you have a 018 number. I have a 018 number too but my package is a better package cos i got to call all 018 numbers for free 24/7/365 and also sms all 018 number for free too ……
    My number is 018-3722238 I hope we can keep in contact with each other… Well it is true we can keep our existing number when we port over to 018 mobile company.
    The reception is very good in Pg.

    Regards Pat

  6. Only if U Mobile users have less complaints, I will consider getting a new number from them. Poor coverage, dropped calls, con cases (http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/742469), it has every reason to keep customers away for them.

    Definitely not a good start for a new telco, but at least they have good ads. I’m using Celcom UOX, no sms spam (like from the bloody Hotlink) and have the cheapest prepaid rate of all (15c/min to all network).

  7. Hi Lilian,
    Is your activation ok now?
    It should be useable within 24hours, and if its still not working,
    drop me an email or call me at 0182002226.
    I’ll check it out for u.

  8. Provide me information on how can I contact you and win prizes as you said. I am not having any U mobile and my mobile is only Nokia 1110 i model. I can send sms through other sms portals but how can I send through u mobile when I am not having the same kind of mobile. Dubey
