Have you gotten frustrated on how marketing and scam calls seem to make it through your way even if you don’t intentionally sign up for certain services? If that seems to be the case, CelcomDigi could help safeguard your privacy with its new PrivateSIM eSIM service.

Available for RM10/month as a supplementary line, PrivateSIM is a secondary number that’s tied to the main postpaid account which can be used for receiving OTP (one-time pin) and other digital activity sign ups, this is ideal in case your main number is being compromised by hackers in an unfortunate moment, which you’d at least have a private number that no one but you would know.

CelcomDigi also mentions in its product microsite that this number will be private and not exposed to the outside world, which is a little vague on how it works considering you’d still need to provide the number when signing up for services.

PrivateSIM does come with 1GB of data for basic browsing purposes and users can pay an additional RM5 for 500MB of data for 7 days, the number will also not be able to make or receive any phone calls, hence the name.

CelcomDigi is making the service available to customers on CelcomDigi Postpaid 80 and above plans, you can find out more info here on how you can sign up for one.
