[liangtam]

technically, bbom is under singtel mobile division, and hence singtel instead.

[offangle]

have been waiting for someone to finally make that clarification


and when i said yes, i dont mean bbom

If you have a Singtel mobile line in the family (parent, spouse, sibling, or older children) and want to save on the land line costs, consider signing up for MIO instead. If you do the math, rental of the home line is an additional 8+/month.

Hi guys,

Interesting thread you have got here. I can't tell you the situation now, but I did run into this issue a couple of years ago when I wanted to switch my Internet over to StarHub. You see, StarHub was offering a pretty attractive gift for new sign-ups - an iPAQ PDA I believed. In addition, the package also came with free digital voice, so I promptly signed up for it.

Problem was, I still had a few months left in my Singtel ADSL contract.... well ok, so it's more like six months there. As you can imagine, the penalties made it illogical to terminate at this stage. What was interesting was that Singtel would not allow me to pay in advance for all the outstanding months. As such, I am forced to pay for the subscription of the phone line, which I found illogical.

I talked to quite a few Singtel representatives on the phone, who all insisted that terminating my voice line cannot be done. Finally, one of them suggested I go down to a Singtel shop - which I did.


My argument: ADSL technology is technically independent of the voice portion.
Singtel's position: That their admin system requires that an ADSL line have a phone number attached to it. Also, if I don't have a phone line, then I won't be able to use their broadband isn't it?
My counter: I only signed a contract for the broadband service, and not the phone line. It's my own prerogative if I really can't access it after they terminated my voice line. Also, any admin issues on their end is not really my problem is it?


To cut a long story short, it took a fight, but the Singtel staff in the shop relented. My voice line was terminated on-the-spot, and I continued with my ADSL subscription until thatcontract ran out - after which I terminated it as well.

I really *cannot remember* if I utilized ADSL services after that, so I can't tell you if it was still usable. Logically and technically though, it should be possible.

Regards,
Paul Mah.

[liangtam]

makes 0 sense.
you could have paid ppl to use ur service rather than it go wasted.

There are two choices you can take,

1) take the wireless USB Broadband connection which you do not need a phone line at home. adv is you can going and surf anywhere you like as long as there is phone signal. basic plan $20+/months.

2) reason not to have phone line is the monthly bill. you can take MIO plan, there are 2 type, 1 with MIO TV and broadband and home line ($39+/monthly), another 1 with Mobile line and broadband and home line ($55+/monthly). the outgoing call for home line is free for MIO.

I am not related to Singtel. I am using the MIO with mobile since it started.


Cheers

[lerkaile]

I'm keen to get a SNBB line but can I do without the Mio TV and all that jazz? :s13:

[liangtam]

SNBB is snbb mah. Tho you need fixed line for sure.

u can choose not to take mioTV.

[chunlianghere]

mayb he is the new isp, tats y no need phone line also can get broadband. becos he is the boss..:s13::s13::s13:


=:p

[AT_HWZ]

In theory, the technology allows fixed line broadband without a voice line. Guess SingTel just refused to offer such option. If you want fixed broadband with SingTel, it has to come with a phone line and you've to sign 2 - 3 year contract. I just called and checked. What I asked:
1. Can subscribe to SNBB with phone line without contract? No.
2. What's the penalty if I terminate my 3-year (36 months) contract within a month of signing up due to poor internet services by SNBB? Must pay 35 x monthly fee!!! Ask sure not? SingTel CSO said correct! Er... kinda rip-off right? Worst than broad daylight robbery. Wonder if it has to do with the sign-up gift or whatever promo gift.

Damn sian. Stuck with Star****. Go M1 or PacNet cable also same sh1t because they're on Star****'s pipe. Switch to SingTel and they don't deliver, I still have to pay more $$$. What's wonder with Singapore's ISPs man?!

[liangtam]

The pipe is purely last mile, all traffic will be handled by the respective ISP upstream route.
