Am still on the old Mio fibre Sports 200mbps with BPL and digital line at $109.90/mth. Contract expiring this month, worth maintaining this old plan or should I re-contract to the latest 200mbps mio bundle plan at 79.90/mth without BPL? Or even downgrade to 100mbps?

Very much depend on BPL package, they will adjust the pricing next season right? If 200mbps plus homeline etc is 49.90 without mio tv. Speed wise depend on yr needs.

Do u have old folks at home? if yes, better keep your analog line. If no, just go digital after all, we can still use our mobile phone if the modem or line is down.

Yes think price will be revised upwards. 200mbps is 49.90 now, means I'm literally paying 60 for bpl and some crap channels. I'm contemplating foregoing bpl but I am a sucker for HD broadcast. Tough decision.

Think u can hold on to it, wait for full BPL pricing packages or consider cross channel options.

Sign on to 150Mbps Fibre BroadBand @ $49.90 on phone before 9:00PM today.

Was waiting to sign on for quite a while but holding on due to the installation and registration charge which add up to $6.91 additional per mth if not waive off and not so attractive offers before current promotion.

With both now waived off, finally decide not to wait for future promotions due to the coming price increase charge for the excess data for Broadband on Mobile which I'm keen on.

As of now, every 1 GB excess data after the 1GB local data bundle for the Mobile BroadBand is charge at $5.35 and capped at $94/month.
W.e.f. July 2013 both will be doubled!!!
Excess 1 GB will be charged at $10.70 and capped at $188/month!!!
Current rates are promotional rates.

The CSOs are not aware of this coming price increase until I told them to check it out their website.

The 1 GB local data bundled with the free Broadband on Mobile can be easily exceeded.
$5.35 per 1GB and capped at $94/mth still acceptable but not double the rate.

Was interested to top up $35 for the HP notebook so total will be $84.90/mth.
End up did not "top-up" for the notebook as was told still have to continue to pay $84.90 even after 24 mths as that is the price for the "top-up" plan which is different from the $49.90 "basic" Fibre Broadband plan.
Price will only change if I recontract but what if there is no better plan to recontract especially the excess data charge of $5.35 per 1Gb for the Broadband on Mobile which will remain until recontract.
Anyway, the notebook is good to have but not a must.

Maybe I'm given the wrong info by the CSO but those keen on the notebook "top-up" may want to check carefully before sign on otherwise continue to pay for the notebook "top-up" after 24 mths until recontract.

If this is true,it is really wtf, feel like as if Stinktel is setting up booby traps. I doubt many of those whom signed up for the promo is aware of this. knn.

i dun see where the problem is....

if u wanna continue with singtel, just recontract after 21 mths, get the new package.
if u wanna terminate, u will probably wanna get out after 24 mths.

Why would anyone wanna pay a 2yr old price without contract/freebies?

Quite true, it's just a choice one has to remember to make one the 2-year plan is up. Remember all those 'free' services? They don't expire after the 'free' period and one has to call up to stop those services.

This is no different.

Not elegant, but there is an easy exit option anyway.
