Who is excited as I am? Finally..

Not really... maybe just me. My Apple Pay on applewatch don’t require phone. Cellular just sms. Using it for steaming while running with the battery life this bad......

Finally! Took them long enough.

Beware of the poor connectivity and speed from M1 compared to Singtel.

There’s a $37 SIM activation charge. Do the other telcos charge that too?

StarHub doesnt. Flat $6 per month

Singtel charges $10.70 but can try to negotiate for waiver.

I tried twice and both successful

Can we expect Circles.life to follow as well since they're based on M1 (if they were limited from supporting before)?

I'm getting one S5 next week, currently using circleslife

depends on whether they are still being limited by M1?

That’s on my mind as well. With M1 offering the feature and assuming circles couldn’t because they’re based on m1, and now m1 will be supporting AW, does that mean Circles.Life can implement the system since they’re based on m1 network? Not sure how that works

maybe they are restricted by M1 from doing it?

Just subscribed with M1. After update to OS 6.1, it is now available...before 1st Nov

Managed to activate NumberShare yesterday night as well, after receiving M1 39.1 carrier update.

So how much do we pay if we already have a watch and only want the service?

just the activation fee?
