If you’ve recently changed your phone plan with Digi and need to know what changes to expect when you see your first bill, fret not! We’ve come up with a quick guide for you. This is for all plan switches, whether you’re moving from prepaid to postpaid or upgrading your postpaid plans.
Postpaid to Postpaid
When you switch to another postpaid plan, ensure that:
Your line status is active
There is no overdue bill
You have not changed your plan more than twice in a month
We encourage that you use up any remaining freebies, rebates, internet quota, quota top-up, and roll-over quota before changing plans as it will be forfeited upon cancellation. Your subscription for Roam Monthly (if any) will also be canceled.

Signing up for a new postpaid plan will entitle you to new freebies such as pro-rated calls and SMS. Your credit limit will change automatically according to the new plan and FULL internet quota will be granted.
The monthly fee for both your previous and new plan will also be pro-rated! Here is the formula to calculate pro-rated monthly fees:
Number of Used Period x Monthly Fee / Number of Days in Billing Period
Example of a bill with a pro-rated monthly fee when you switch from Digi Postpaid 58 to Digi Postpaid 80 below:
Postpaid to Prepaid
For postpaid customers who switch to prepaid plans, ensure that:

All outstanding balance has been settled

A few things to take note of:

- Freebies will be forfeited upon cancellation of your current plan. We encourage that you use the freebies before switching!
- You will be subject to a penalty fee if you are under any existing phone contract.
- You will not be able to revert to your previous plan if it is no longer offered
Your monthly fee for your last bill will be pro-rated as well. Here is the formula to calculate pro-rated monthly fees:
