TM Home Prepaid

What is Home Prepaid?

A prepaid fixed line pay-as-you-use service without monthly rental and bill.
Since there is no bill, all call usages is being deducted from Home Prepaid account value and customer has to reload/top-up his/her Home Prepaid account by using iTalk card to enjoy making calls without interruption.

To suit different needs, Home Prepaid service is available in 2 types – Home Prepaid SINGLE and Home Prepaid PLUS (but Home Prepaid Plus is no longer available for New Application starting from 24 December 2008)

Home Prepaid SINGLE

The service allows you to make calls simply by lifting the handset of your telephone without the need of entering 12 digit account number or PIN (except for first time use, the user MUST enter the 12 digit account number for activation of the Home Prepaid SINGLE account).

Upon the date of activation, the user is able to make calls with subject to the validity period and account value of the Home Prepaid account before the account become de-active.

To avoid interruption to the service and inability to make calls, the user has to reload/top-up his/her account by using iTalk card.

Home Prepaid PLUS

A prepaid fixed line service with 1 Principal account and with a maximum of 8 supplementary accounts (1+8).

Each individuals (Principal and Supplementary account holders) use his/her own account number and pays for their own call charges. No more hassle as to who should settle the monthly phone bills.

To reduce the hassle of entering 12 digit account number every time for making call, the principal account holder has the option to set up an abbreviated account number (from 1 to 9) for each Principal and Supplementary accounts via Interactive Voice Response (IVR/voice prompt) from the Home Prepaid line.
