Earlier this month, the Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil said that telecommunication companies will not enforce additional fees for subscribers accessing the 5G network.
However, at that time, CelcomDigi was still imposing 5G access fees for subscribers to certain mobile plans. But that is no longer the case.
CelcomDigi is now offering free 5G access to subscribers of Digi Postpaid 40 and 60, as well as to Xpax Postpaid 40 and 60 subscribers, according to SoyaCincau.
To activate the free 5G access, subscribers are required to claim the 5G pass from the MyDigi and Celcom Life apps. The pass is valid for 30 days and your current 4G data allotment can be used to access 5G.
Prior to this, in order to access the 5G network, subscribers of these Celcom and Digi postpaid plans must purchase 5G boosters that cost up to RM20 per month.
