Data Cap Detected
Smart SurfMax allows subscribers to enjoy all day surfing up to 800MB/day (Smart BRO prepaid) and 1GB/day (Smart BRO postpaid) at optimal speeds. Once this is consumed, all day surfing services will still be active but connection quality may vary until 12 midnight. To help subscribers better manage their daily usage, this service will send them free text alerts once daily usage reaches: Prepaid: 640MB (80%) and 800MB (100%) / Postpaid: 900MB (90%) and 1GB (100%) - Smart Communications
My thoughts
This is quite frustrating to those individuals who rely heavily on using big data on the go. Now you have to manage your data properly to avoid unwanted "not that fast" internet connection once you hit the 800 MB / 1 GB data limit. I understand that Smart needs to do this to improve their service further, but hopefully they can bring back their unli internet soon with better reliability.
