Well, the emergence of this im3 bonus quota is also a new strategy. And friends, you have to be observant in reading promos, because lately many problems have arisen, namely the IM3 local quota cannot be used and is not cut off even though you have internet access. Then, is there a way to overcome the IM3 quota that can’t be used, let’s look at the discussion below.
Why can’t Indosat IM3 Local Quota be used?
Before answering this question, I want to tell you first, what are the steps for cutting quotas that apply at Indosat. As far as mimin is concerned, your internet usage will cut the bonus quota first, then the regular quota.
Indosat Quota Cutting Mechanism
There are various bonus quotas, for example local IM3 quotas, night quotas, social media quotas (eg free access to WhatsApp, Facebook, YouTube, etc.). So usually what is cut first is the application access quota first if you are only active on the internet in some of the applications that the admin mentioned.
Next, for access outside of the application quota bonus, for example, friends searching on google, opening shopee or playing tiktok, the next thing that is cut is the IM3 local quota. If the local quota has been used up, then the quota for a certain hour (night/day) is deducted and the last is the 4G quota and the main quota.
Then, why do many people experience that the local IM3 quota cannot be used? What this means is that the local quota is still intact but other quotas/main quotas have been cut off.
Causes of Indosat’s Local Quota Cannot Be Used
Local quota itself means quota that can only be used in certain areas, the main thing is that it can only be used in the city where you bought and activated the package. Mimin has explained in detail what Indosat’s local quota is in the previous article.
So as an example of a case, let’s say you are traveling to Jogja and buying an IM3 internet package in Jogja. You will get a local quota bonus of 2GB, and while traveling in Jogja your internet usage will cut your local quota, until the remaining 500MB is when you return to Jakarta.
When you arrive in Jakarta, the remaining 500MB of the bonus area quota will not be able to be used because the quota is activated in Jogja, so it can only be used when you are in Jogja, friend! So, do you understand what Mimin means?
How to Overcome IM3 Local Quota Cannot Be Used
So, it’s a waste, bro, you have a bonus quota but you can’t use it? Take it easy, it turns out that there is a way to deal with IM3 Local Quota that cannot be used.
How can Indosat party know your location? Yep! From the GPS feature that is embedded in your smartphone, of course. To outsmart this, there is an application called Fake GPS Location that can trick your GPS position so that it can be tracked where you want it.
For example, from the case that mimin mentioned earlier, a friend who has returned to Jakarta can look as if he is still in Jogja with a fake GPS application. So, to use it, please follow these steps:
- Download and install the fake GPS Location By Lexa application on google playstore or click the following link >> Fake GPS Location Apk
- After the installation is complete, open the application and activate it Mock Location by Open Settings >> search for Menu Mock Location >> select Fake GPS
- Back to the main menu, click the search icon to find the name of the initial city where you activate the package. Example: Yogyakarta then tap the button search.
- After the search is complete, click the button Play green button to start the Fake GPS Location application.
- Finished! Please, friends, access the internet, for example by accessing Instagram, and check whether your local IM3 quota is cut or not.
You can check the remaining IM3 local quota that you get via the MyCare application or by sending an SMS, typing USAGE, send to 363.
