Does happiness really come that cheap?



Have you seen this before?

This is Happy, a new, el-cheapo prepaid service aimed at those people you used to see in primary school who couldn't afford to buy lunch at the canteen. Like me.

Anyway, it's a sub-brand of DiGi (that's why the stickers that came with my newspaper a few days ago are so similar to the ones for the DiGi Street Party a few weeks back) and apparently lets you talk at RM0.01 per second up to a maximum of RM0.99 per call.

Yes, it's not a typo. You read it correctly. Ninety-nine sen per call.

It also boast of 10 sen per SMS to anyone in any network and any reload stays valid for 60 days. If your mouth is hanging wide open while you're reading this, you're not alone.

This is either a scam or a mega April-Fools-joke-come-late, or DiGi has pulled off a complete blinder. We'll see if this is actually real or not, and if it is, don't be surprised if my number changes to 014 anytime soon.
