damn good offer lor. still need to comment meh? you probably already know the answer.

[sagiluck]

is SMS exclusive offer...i gt it too... not sure how exclusive it is though.

[leogeo]

wow. sounds great man

[doglefox]

I got receive email from singnet on recontract offer but dun have the free 6 mths. I already out of contract for 3 months and im still paying for $88 a mth for my 10 mbps plan.

Maybe i shld call them and ask sia..this one is very gd..

[rainbow99]

Wah this plan is very good value, gonna try calling to request for it also.

[Core2max]

Value for money!!

Can i just come to their shop and ask for this promo?

[rerear]

Wah great... one week before IT show.... and Singnet attacks with this :)

I just want to ask, what happens to those ppl who JUST only signed couple weeks ago that didn't get the free 6months? I mean understand they are binded by contract and all, but isn't this a little TOO soon for such an overwhelming change?

Ppl have mentioned able to call/request for change to the most recent contract terms.conditions, can someone comment if this always works?

[Escobar]

seriously not bad. free 6 months u save a lot.

i noticed SNBB's pattern. 1 week before IT fair they will cut their subscription real low and on the fair itself they will have 'freebies' promo (not exactly free and you are paying for it. on a monthly installment that is).

[phuque99]

Nothing happens, that's why its called a contract. If not every subscriber can any how change everything down the road. Promo is only to attract sign up and read: *tie you down* to protect revenue for next 12-24 months.

There's no such thing called too soon one lah, every day will be too "soon" regardless.

[jaxrpc]

promo till 27 mar 2009.....hold first, see what they offer during IT show..

[danzodanzo]

This offer is really good!!

But if you want to combine your BB with Fixed Tel Line subscription, and get to watch hd movies, Mio Home plan pricing is very comparable. A 3Mbps plan works out to be about $13.90/mth if you take away the tel line costs ($10) and basic mio tv min costs ($16), have not added the bonus free superpacks and free 80GB DVRecorder yet i think...

[mikezuper]

If only I dont have any contract with starfug!

I pay 60 a month!

[danzodanzo]

FYI, one good thing about Mio Home is that you can replace your existing BB contract (if it still has 12 mths left) with Mio Home at cheaper rate :) , just that you need to keep the same speed plan I think for now...

Tot starhub also got bundle discount...?

If only I dont have any contract with starfug!

I pay 60 a month!

[sagiluck]

If only I dont have any contract with starfug!

I still paying $74 / mth... :( ending next month !

For me, already gt SCV for EPL so no point have Mio TV. paying $10 + $25 =35/month for ( 8mbps + phone line ) should be worth more than 3mbps mio plan. =P

[doglefox]

I called jus now the CSO went to check and said there is no such promo :(

I asked him whether there is any promo during the IT show in March and he said usually the promo will be released either on the first day of the show or the day before. Haizz guess i have to wait..

They only have the $36.90 + wireless.

Any link for this promo?

[phuque99]

Already posted promo is sent via SMS, how to link leh? Maybe post your mobile number, someone will fwd that sms to you.

... care to read before asking ? :s22:

[hindsight]

I confirm theres no such offer

And i been warned,if theres any offer thats not by official agent, subscribers are liable at own risk when they enter their own terms of agreement

So maybe the catch is on page 248, paragraph 9, line 5, point B, subpoint ii, reference to Appendix G14 :D

So what is this? A scam? :s17:

[tuanbf]

I tried to call that number, they said "Hallo, this is Singtel" !!! information is given, yes, 24 months free 6 months, only for Singnet broadband. No promotion for mio Home. I asked a few other questions about landline, information they gave very accurate.
Haven't signed up though.

[tuanbf]

I just told the fact and shared with anyone, this is not either an argument, or I tried to cheat someone. I dont want to start the fire, but it is unnecessary for you, zwemxiang88, to write down a such negative comment dude!

[Core2max]

Cool down bros.

I received the email message from singtel (on my BBOM menu)... and YES there is a promotion.

I will call them tomorrow!

Just called them and signed up.

For 8mbps you can choose 36.90 + wireless OR 32.90 + cable modem...

I was told no need to pay anything for the first 6 mths... (subsequently pay as above rate).
They will send the modem next week before the IT show...

Quite good offer i think....

Cheers!

[rainbow99]

hi bros, i called 62232122. I was told by the CSO that the offer is only open to existing mobile broadband user signing up for home broadband for the first time; it's not open for recontract by existing home broadband user. Is that correct?

[danzodanzo]

Each time recontract SNBB throw in wireless modem...
epicentre say it worth $500.
i already got 2 wireless modem working fine, dont need a 3rd one.
would be happy if they keep the modem & offer the BB at a lower price..

[rainbow99]

Sian called 2 times and got the same reply. So much about customer relationship management...old customers not worth as much as new customers bah...

[outlander]

So it seems that the epicentre deal is better for recontracting.

[phuque99]

Of course not, new customer signed up tied down by contract :P

[drifting]

Bro, i think this offer is not for those existing BB customers.. I think its for mobile broadband if I am not wrong?

BUT they say 13 march there will be a roadshow promotion maybe in the IT show :s12:

[l2008l]

moi also gotch e sms ~! :s31::eek:

[jj]

VERY interested in knowing also.. 10mbps vs 8 mbps any difference

For download, not really any difference since most of time, you don't get the max download bandwidth. However, the 10M comes with 1M upload while the 8M is only 512k upload. I have tried uploading several GB of photo to online album. And I believe the upload speed will make a difference.

But still, I am currently using 10M and considering downgrade to 8M.

[zhengkit]

moi also gotch e sms ~! :s31::eek:

are you a singnet mobile broadband customer?

[l2008l]

are you a singnet mobile broadband customer?

ima ex bbom user ~! :s22::s22:

[rerear]

So far is it all those that got the sms are BBOM or ex-BBOM users?

Others need not apply, need not bother calling the number?

[game goondu]

what about new BB subscriber.
i'm thinking to jump ship from SH to singtel. considering singtel 8mbps plan.

[2696117]

I got receive email from singnet on recontract offer but dun have the free 6 mths. I already out of contract for 3 months and im still paying for $88 a mth for my 10 mbps plan.

Maybe i shld call them and ask sia..this one is very gd..
same here, last time you suscribe when they give the mac right?

[Nakedtoes]

i downgrade to 8mb from 10mb.. suprising the 8mb is faster.. dun ask me why.. i also dun know.. BT is faster also:s22:

[doglefox]

Nope..i subscribe to get the IBM T43 in late 2005..

same here, last time you suscribe when they give the mac right?

just wondering if IT Fair promos will be applicable to us out of contract users?
If only applicable to new users, can just terminate and sign on as new user to enjoy promo?

Is it cause i thought of going 8 to 10 :s22::s22::s22:

[deskoh91]

yes, i agree!
they usually (especially starhub) have this clause that states that the user must not have terminated their broadband services in the past three months.

[hersvim]

Is 2MB difference worth some much difference ($15!!) in price between 8Mmps ($32.90) and 10Mbps ($58)??

in terms of upstream, it's 512k vs 1mbps

[arcturuz]

they usually (especially starhub) have this clause that states that the user must not have terminated their broadband services in the past three months.

that's farking dumb. why not just get another person in the household to subscribe as a new user then?

[Moonlight]

my HP line is singtel(1 year + contact remain),
i have a BBOM with singtel(just end contact)...
i also have singtel dialup account(and i still paying for it),
i have not use any Singtel BB before(Pacific not counted)
now i am using SH
y no SMS for me??? :s22:

[onin_5]

hi all

im also a BBOM user and i recieved the same SMS
my contract has still 5 months remaining and i want to subscribe to this promotion
do i have to terminate first my BBOM contract before i can avail this new promotion?
or is it possible for me just to recontract so i can avail this?

thanks!

[Moonlight]

BBOM and the ADSL is 2 different thing....
when u sign up this ADSL 8 MB, your BBOM still have 5 month remaining....
not really link...

[rerear]

wah how come IT show offer worse then last week's one?

damn...

[liangtam]

[elu]

that's farking dumb. why not just get another person in the household to subscribe as a new user then?

Not when that person is in the same household. The clause would usually apply for the whole household.

[theoryjack]

this one is not mio home right? only plain vanilla snbb plus free modem, thats all, right? thinking of signing up for miohome .. if got this free 6 mth promo, don need to think liao :D

[liangtam]

free 6 mth in vanilla service orly so cheap le, wont appear in mioHome de

[zhengkit]

imo, if you got singtel mobile lines, regardless of whether you need mioTV or not, getting mio home is better versus just snbb only. you have to factor in the $9.55 rental you pay monthly (abt 29 quarterly) for the fixed line and also the mutli line discount. now somemore got 1 month free additional $2-3 dollars off monthly depending on 8/10mbps sub.

[Errz]

this one is not mio home right? only plain vanilla snbb plus free modem, thats all, right? thinking of signing up for miohome .. if got this free 6 mth promo, don need to think liao :D

i think if u have more than 1 handphone under ur name, u will save more

I sign up Mio Home 10mbps yesterday. will enjoy 20% discount off my 2 handphone bill.
and can upgrade handset every 12 months instead of 24months~ (not like i will do that since i am using Iphone *i love iphone~~) lol:s13:

yeah but if you get them seperately you might save more i am thinking. the vanilla bb is really cheap now. plus the land line for mio is not very clear, according to my friend. Then you have to factor in the electricity bill for leaving the box on 24/7, not to mention the hassle if it breaks down ...

for the fix line, you can actually ask for analog line. I think its not 100% must be digital when u get Mio Plan.

I sign up for Mio Home and will be still using Analog line

are you sure? then this will be a very very big plus in my book. heck might even jump over to singtel because of this ...

[zhengkit]

I have done several calculations. No matter what, as long as you have at least one singtel mobile line, the mio home is cheaper versus the vanilla snbb without any freebies at 31.90 epicenter snbbb promo much less the 32.90 or the 35 dollar now.

Cause with one mobile line, you get 15% off (assuming principal line) and also free Caller ID worth 5+ dollars monthly which adds to offset the 51.90 or 59.90.

And yes you can opt for the analogue line instead of the digital line. Digital line is an additional 3 dollars but then unlimited phone calls. Analogue line dun need modem to be on all the time.

yah.. without the handphone discount . Mio home is not that attractive.

[sorryguy]

If we can change to an analogue line then i'm quite sure it's worth it as long as you have a singtel mobile line. But if i switch i'm sure going to miss the per second billing from starhub ...

sounds great now haha.

No. By default mio home offers the analogue line. If you want the digital line you just need to tell them and they will charge you $3 more per month.

btw, any options to keep both phone lines? lol.

[sorryguy]

hey sorry for the enquiry

where does it say if i sign up for mio home i get 15% off the singtel mobile plus caller id? thanks!

[danzodanzo]

The 15% off singtel mobile plus caller id does not apply if you have classic plan or i-one and below I think!


BTW, are there any better promotion or freebies at the IT show for Mio Home plans??


hey sorry for the enquiry

where does it say if i sign up for mio home i get 15% off the singtel mobile plus caller id? thanks!

I think u need to have at least iOne Plus and abv.

and corporate rate doesnt enjoy it also.

[sorryguy]

http://home.singtel.com/mio/mio_home_exclusive.html

thanks! went ot see the T&Cs:

The following price plans: Classic, Premium700, Premium1500 and including Corporate Individual Scheme are eligible for nomination to count towards the total mobile lines solely for the purpose of determination of the applicable discount rate as stated in clause 6 below (“Eligible Non-Discount Lines”). For the avoidance of doubt, such Eligible Non-Discount Lines will not enjoy the actual mio Home mobile multi-line discount under this promotion.

means i-One is not counted ... zzz

[sorryguy]

I think u need to have at least iOne Plus and abv.

and corporate rate doesnt enjoy it also.

It says Corporate Individual Scheme is eligible ... but only for those plans i guess. not many plans are eligible it seems ...

[Errz]

It says Corporate Individual Scheme is eligible ... but only for those plans i guess. not many plans are eligible it seems ...

my wife currently on i-one plus but corporate scheme. and not eligible. but she will be getting iphone + ione plus soon, and she will enjoy the 20% discount

[sorryguy]

yeah only classic, premium 700 and 1500 i guess. Classic has not free incoming am i right?

[Core2max]

Received the modem yesterday... I am happy with the 8mps speed.

now I am thinking to replace my landed phone with mio voice...

[Errz]

yeah only classic, premium 700 and 1500 i guess. Classic has not free incoming am i right?

if i remember correctly , The CSO did mention those plan are not eligible

best to call singtel and check

[lahgal]

hi, anyone change from landed line to mio voice , will it affect the speed of broadband?

[zhengkit]

Classic, Premium 500 and 700 will count towards the line count but not eligible to be further discounted. The other plans iOne, iTwo etc count towards the line count AND is eligible to be further discounted@15%,20% etc.

told him about the promo, he said he was "unaware" and went to check his system.

told me it's an exclusive promo for targeted custs. told him im really interested and will sign up immediately if available.

he then scheduled a call-back for me and i got the call in less than 20mins!

tada!

[yourxp]

[rerear]

Man... that's it? Were you a BBOM subscriber previously or a totally new Singnet customer?

Did you have to look really sincere or something? :) Am trying to recontract.... not sure whether they will entertain me.

[Respect_the_dead]

wow wow wow, must jump ship liao. Any hidden costs? Those fine lines?

[Linger]

Must call that no. given in the post above. The promo is on till 27 Mar 09. They are extending the offer to me even tho I confessed to not receiving that SMS.

[Linger]

I jump ship...

[ttwee]

Just got the following offer from Singnet after almost a week of phonecalls and wait:

- 1st 6 months free for 8Mbps plan
- subsequent 18 mths at $32.90
- Ethernet modem

I am an existing SNBB subscriber.

[twosix]

I dun have singtel phone line number. I using SH digital voice. Can I sign up for singnet?

[phuque99]

think cannot bah, but better call singnet, they are the expert and the provider, information from them is true and accurate, steady pom pipi one.

How come must be one week?

[jessy8]

If anyone is interested to know, following plan is still available.

1) 8Mbps with 6 mths free
2) subsequent months at $32.90
3) Ethernet modem

If want wireless modem, then subsequent months is $36.90.

CSO told me the package is only offered to those with mobile BB. But after I told her I want to jump ship from slowhub and I got 2 singtel mobile lines, her "supervisor" approved.

Happy that she answered my questions patiently. Wish I jumped ship earlier. Better late than never right? :) Think the deal is better than Epicentre one.. almost signed that 2 hours ago.

[ttwee]

How come must be one week?

One week is for phonecalls to-and-fro + waiting time for decisions to be made

[bloodwater]

wats the diff between 3mbps and 8 mbps. I have just sign on the dotted line for the 3mbps..

[phuque99]

wats the diff between 3mbps and 8 mbps. I have just sign on the dotted line for the 3mbps..

If you're looking for certain difference other than the super obvious value 3 and 8, maybe you can elaborate? Otherwise you should have asked clearly what 3 and 8 really means while signing.

[sagiluck]

also took this offer... just need the ethernet modem as aready have dir655 =P

free activation
free ethernet modem
free 1st-6th months subscriptions
32.90 / month from the 7th month onwards
24 mths contract

[ivancen]

I wanna subcribe SNBB as new user too. any idea what model ethernet modem is going to be packaged? Is the wireless one (i assume 2wire model? but subsequently cost more at $36.90 per mth) better? By better I mean the stability and speed cos I dun intend to use wireless yet and if i do I prefer a separate router anyway. Thanks for the info.

obviously i asking about wats the diff between them except the 3 and 8.. ya.. i know nothing..

[HUGO15481]

The wireless modem is 2wire270HGV.

But I believe both ethernet and wireless modem are all under the 2wire family.

the wired modem shd be the the thomson speed touch, the wireless is the 2wire model. if u dun intend to use, why pay more?

[ivancen]

hey ting, u r rite, i called up n they said it'll be the thomson st536v6. i dun intend to use wireless anytime soon actually but juz wanted to be sure they're not giving me some old leftover modem tat cannot achieve the 8Mbps stably. Cos i know the current newer models given are the 2wire ones. anyone used the thomson modem b4 and faced problems?

[terencedog]

fantastic lobang.

[rerear]

Looks like really need to change modem liao :) intend to use my AM300 linksys... can I don't use the Singtel CD/wizard stuff?

[game goondu]

yes.... call them in the afternoon...

saying i want to signup for the $32.90 plan...
no problem at all... didn't even ask whether i'm any BBoM sub...

they will deliver my modem to my office on April 7...
seems like the best 8mbps deal recently...

can finally cancel my starhub contract... with them for 2 contract length already...

I got Singtel BBoM but did not receive this offer leh.

[coppermine]

I called to enquire and there was a $8 fee for delivery of modem?

[twosix]

side track a bit. Can singnet 8mbps watch youtube or veoh.com smoothly during peak hours like 9pm? SH is very jerky.

[liangtam]

yt yes
veoh no. However, veoh should be faster on the fat green pipe

[twosix]

I dun have singtel phone line number. I using SH digital voice. Can I sign up for singnet?

I just checked with singnet. One will need a singtel fix phone line with phone number to use singnet. So I guess I have to continue sticking to SH or try M1.

[liangtam]

There are exception to the fix phone line service. And that is.....
get mio Voice

However, you'll still need an existing phone wiring in place.

[twosix]

Read too any complaints of Mio from newspaper. No thanks.

[liangtam]

mio is just basic SNBB + TV + VoIP packaged into one.

Making a comparison, its like starhub's home hubbing pack.
https://secure.starhub.com/shop/jfn?entry=PROMODETAIL&promotionId=89568

Lets say customer only have problem with digital voice, therefore cabletv must have got problem as well... make sense or not?

[caniggia]

which is better, guys? ethernet or wireless modem from them? can both work wif my linksys router?

thanks for replying. ;)

[phuque99]

there's no better, depend what you want bah. but if you want to use with your router, both should be converted to dummy bridged modem so end up no diff.

[twosix]

if you already got linksys router, then just get the modem.

[uerian]

Me too, activated yesterday. Was told there was another person in my block activating right after my 4pm slot. Any chance you staying in woodlands too? =)

[liangtam]

I know. i dun like all in one package. it will be hard to unbundle.

its cheaper la actually. bundle same time contract ends. so afterwhich u can unbundle it easily.

[sorryguy]

guys - for existing customers did you have to terminate your line and sign up for a new contract? or can you just recontract?

the CSO over there tells me i have to terminate and sign up for a new contract???

[Blate]

I just call up, she say unless you got the sms if not cant get the offer. She ask for the mobile number.


:(

[arcturuz]

during the recontract sign up, wat options do you all have for the collection of the free wireless modem?

when i signed up, there is no other option other than 'delivery and installation' and no self collection.

i called them just now and they say i have to pay $53 for the installation when I don't even need it.

farking bull****. i just want the modem.

[Blate]

Anyone manage to get the $32.90+6mth free for recontract yesterday or today? Geez, call up again and the lady say $32.90 with no free 6 mth for recontract. She say only for new subscriber.

[ting]

anyway .. today is LAST DAY ;)

[Blate]

EpiCentre is offering 8Mbps by SingNet for $31.90

http://www.epicentreorchard.com/moby/cms/promotions/singnet/index.html

:D

Yah, cheaper than the $35 online deal, but without the free 6mth then the EpiCentre is more attractive.

Different CSO answering different deal I guess. 1st call, CSO say no way to offer $32.90 if never received the sms, now another lady say can get the deal but no 6mth for recontract. But some you guys manage to get it.

:(

[pillz-]

just called them up AGAIN. THeir CSO knows nuts. make me go down to epicenter for nothing waste my time and money. Have complained against the guy who gave false information am waiting for their superior to call me back.

i suspect it's a barrier tactic.

[HUGO15481]

I just call up, she say unless you got the sms if not cant get the offer. She ask for the mobile number.


:(

I think we got the same CSO.

That happen to me when I first called, in the evening time around 6:30 pm. She asked me for the mobile number that receive the sms, and asked for my residential number that will be connected to the broadband.

As the residential line is under my parents name, she asked me to bring an authorization letter together with the SMS to Hello Shop to sign up.

One week later, I called and a male CSO picked up. Everything went through with a breeze without even asking me for the SMS. I have got the confirmation letter from Singtel yesterday and it will be activated on 02/04.

[Jizzinmypant]

i signed up yesterday, just tell the CSO that i am a new singtel broadband subscriber, and she didnt asked much ;)

[jaiong2000]

Many of SingTel/Net promos end today. (27th March).
I wonder what's coming up, and how SH is responding??.

From general survey, many netizens jump ship to SNBB. (MOL's problems)
Many couch potatoes take up SH Triple-Pack1..In the end. (attractive pricing, mioTv nothing)
Home Tel Line: 50-50. mBB : 50-30-20. mobile, no comments (fair game)
I think in the end, better that ISP/telcos to stick to core business.

Been with ST and SH quite a lot face-to-face/phone, service level: ST-9, SH-3.
Anyone noticed?
ST response time: hours/days, ST staff are more matured, more initiative, smarter..says 'YES, but'
SH response time: days/weeks/never, Staff's very junior, not very smart, quite robotic, says 'Sorry, NO!'

Recent encounters:
ST Comcentre Hallo!: 'Normally you have to call in for this, but I will help you now (considering already closed, past 9:30 pm, staff shift is 9 am -9:30 pm), debundle mio

SH Vivocity: ' Sorry, I am Customer Service, I can't answer your simple question' (straight face queue-issuer), sign up 3F pack.

Share your service experience: not only bad, good ones too...

[game goondu]

for those that managed to signup, did the CSO mentioned any other extra charges?

[HUGO15481]

Nope, no other charges involved, unless you need them to help you do modem installation which will be charged at $53.

[game goondu]

thanks......

[salivaman]

is this still available???
how come all say 27 march end but the website states until 31march?

[Uchihaxavi]

I juz signed up todae. call the no.

[PC_Dreamer]

Called twice. Two different CSOs but still they insisted it is NOT possible for existing customers to have this plan. Geeez.


Guys got this plan for recontract, how did you do it? :D

[sagiluck]

maybe its heng suay kind of thing. if they meet the sales target sure die die cant =P

[launm88]

Just sign up with singnet at $36.90 for the wireless modem with 6 months free.
CSO is very friendly and efficient. I told her I heard about this SMS offer
from a friend, and I am a new subscriber just coming over from MOL.
She just took a while to ask her superior, and my sign up was a breeze.

cheers

[spying]

Fyi, this offer ends 4th march, this sat. Just signed up. Only problem for me is i want to activate the phone socket in my room that was for another number which i discontinued and they want to change me $50.

Ask them if install a brand new phone socket how much, also $50........

I already have the socket and line laid, just have to swap the lines.

[Pokémon]

Fyi, this offer ends 4th march, this sat.

The activation may be done within 1 week if you already have a land line, just call them to check on the earliest activation date, the modem might take longer to schedule for a delivery.

Billing should start based on activation date.

DIY lah, go outside your house, trace for the incoming small telephone box, (inside out), open up with screwdriver, look for 2 pairs of wires (1 tel.line only 2 wires in use, 2 extra wire for spare), and swap the wires in the box, with same screwdriver) saves you $50. if cannot find, there may be other methods, in those telephone points within your house. If couldn't be bother or scared, then call the neighbourhood handy man, I think they will do for 20 bucks. Better than to buy WL router and DECT phone & interchange positions.

But dun see him do it, because when you see, you will regret paying $20..lol.

[liangtam]

You're not supposed to touch the phone d.p. !!
