CelcomDigi Knocks Down 1Gbps Fibre Plan Pricing To RM249/month; Discontinues 800Mbps Option

CelcomDigi appears to have revised the pricing for its 1Gbps fibre plan. First discovered by local tech site Amanz, the subscription in question is now available for RM249 per month, which is RM40 less than initially offered.

As before, new and existing users will get to enjoy download and upload speeds of up to 1Gbps and 200Mbps, respectively. The plan also comes with an included Premium WiFi 6 router with mesh, while newer users get free standard installation.

The price revision comes with another significant change, however. As of now, CelcomDigi no longer lists its 800Mbps option in its list of fibre plans. Before this, this particular subscription was offered at RM249, which is now the same price as the revised 1Gbps plan.

Responding to our queries, a representative at the CelcomDigi customer service centre in The Gardens Mall informed us that the pricing for existing 800Mbps customers will remain unchanged, and there are no plans to provide them with an automatic upgrade to the faster subscription – for now, at least. However, they are given the option to upgrade to the 1Gbps line at no additional cost if they so wish, but there is a catch.

According to the representative, choosing to port over to the faster plan will still require customers to own the Premium WiFi 6 router in order to fully utilise the 1Gbps connection. Unfortunately, they are unable to confirm whether CelcomDigi will charge for the router upgrade.
