No queues with #DIGIFASTLINE
Digi introduced a smart way to virtually queue for the new iPhone devices prior to the launch proper. Called the #DIGIFASTLINE, buyers can ‘queue’ online and can get on the fast track by Facebook sharing and tweeting. 250 spots were allocated, and this concept allowed selected #DIGIFASTLINE winners to get devices first.
One of the first owners of the iPhone 5s was Jason Ooi, who was also one of 250 #DIGIFASTLINE selected ‘queuejumpers’.
With the iDigi 238 plan, you can grab a 16GB iPhone 5s for just RM317. The iDigi 238 plan gives you 5GB of data, 1,000 minutes of voice calls, 600 SMS and 60 MMS. Voice calls rates are 10 sen/minute, SMS/MMS at 10sen / SMS/MMS. More plans here – http://new.digi.com.my/cs/Satellite/ecomm_C/smartphone_main_product/default/iphone5s
