The government has implemented a Rounding Mechanism effective from 1 April
2008. So all total amounts will be rounded off to the nearest multiple of 5 sen.
This mechanism applies to the total amount of the bill, not on individual items.

However, for April, May and June, Maxis will not round up the bill. We
will only round down and this applies only to payments made over the
counter*.
*Rounding down does not apply to EPK machine, online and direct debit payments.
