U MicroCredit
The U MicroCredit is U Mobile's way of making the iPhone 6 more affordable to those who cannot afford to pay for the iPhone 6 upfront. Take a look at their press release on this :
As much as many people want to own the amazing iPhone 6, it is still considered a premium device at a price that is far-fetched for mass market. Though offered at a subsidised rate, most of the existing iPhone 6 plans start the device rate from RM2000, meaning that customers have to pay RM2000 as an upfront payment for the device during registration. Understanding the market sentiments, as well as the sustaining demand for the iPhone 6, U Mobile launched its very own device financing programme, U MicroCredit. In partnership with Berjaya Credit this allows its subscribers to take home the iPhone 6 starting from RM98, making the premium device affordable for everyone in Malaysia. The U MicroCredit is akin to a micro loan, but it does not require a credit card, collateral or upfront payment upon registration. All customers need to do is either apply online or walk in to any of the U Mobile stores, sign up for the device financing programme, pick an iPlan to accompany the iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus and choose a monthly repayment scheme! Successful U MicroCredit applicants can walk away with their dream device starting from RM98 and the flexible repayment programme allows customers to finance the device over a spread of up to 33 months. The best part is its availability for both postpaid and prepaid U Mobile subscribers. In addition, the easy application process and a fast 2-hour approval makes it hassle free for Malaysians to own a smartphone. |

The New iPhone Prepaid & Postpaid Plans
These plans will be available on the 19th of March, 2015
iPhone Subsidies For Prepaid Users
It has always been the industry standard that postpaid customers are more valuable than prepaid and therefore they are offered with better deals in terms of pricing and benefits. U Mobile broke the mould when the company launched its brand new Prepaid and Postpaid plans in January 2015, offering the same best rates and benefits to both prepaid and postpaid segments. This time, U Mobile again offers prepaid customers the same iPlans to own the amazing iPhone 6 starting from RM98. Prepaid customers with U Mobile can enjoy the same subsidised phone price and U MicroCredit benefits just like the postpaid customers. With the lowest cost of entry starting from i40, U Mobile iPlans enable customers to save up to 40% comparing to those prepaid users purchasing iPhone 6 at retail market price and signing up an existing data plan available in the market. |
