Yes, Zero1 quite ok, no problems with data speed, after 6gb is still usable, fb ig tracetogether whatsapp as per normal, but of course not fast enough not for HD video streaming or ig stories

FB complaints all are FW, maybe they subscribe the cheapest plan, expected unlimited data speed as fast as before 6gb

Curious, anyone using TPG on a Pixel? Is the VoLTE profile native or do you need to use the 4G Voice app?

I'm getting conflicting info from reading all over, so would like to know. Some say yes, some say no.

Would be good also to indicate which model, and which Android version (11/12).

Mom's not been letting me touch her TPG SIM card since she's picked up Pokemon Go. :/

You got to test yourself to confirm. At most just use the TPG voice app

Yah that was what i think too.

A lot ppl post in Zero 1 GB say slow but i think they are not aware after bundle data is managed speed. Not full 4G unlimited.

I applied tpg and choose to self collect the SIM card at one of the locations. May I know how will the porting be triggered? Do I need to login somewhere to select porting or will it be auto after collection of SIM card?

Thx.

After you collected your SIM card, the port in process will be triggered and you will receive an email about the port-in too.

TPG has just announced data roaming packages to many countries.

The regional countries and most of the popular countries we travel to fall under Group A, which is priced at $4/GB.

Finally got hold of mom's card for a few moments.

TPG VoLTE provisioning does not exist on the Pixel 4a on Android 12 (latest update). APNs have to be manually configured.

So those who want to use the Pixel, note that TPG has no native support. Need the voice app.

In what scenario will VoLTE icon disappeared by itself?
I suddenly just realized the VoLTE icon gone from my xm note 6 pro duno since when gone meaning if someone tried calling me can't get through. :( 🤷‍♀️
I re-enter the *# check enabled then again repeat check disabled + reboot then the voLTE resurface.
TPG not that compatible with my hp gonna port out soon.

Only when my wifi switch on at home, volte status missing, I tested the callin in still works.

When i left my hse, I will switchoff the wifi on phone, I did not notice my volte missing.

Strange thing my phone unable to smoothly switch bands. When i walking towards my office toilet, signal getting weaker, in toilet no signal. But when i press airplane mode and back got 2/3 bar signal

I am using XM Mi note 10

Hi, I barely use my TPG number as I am mostly at home. What will happen to my TPG number if I stop recharging/prepaying/renewing for 1-3 months? Will they terminate/disable my personal number permanently or can I recharge/reactivate it again after 1-3 months of not paying?

If your line is expired (no payments made), you have up to 21 days (for SIM Only Plans) or 30 days (for Prepaid) to renew.

But for SIM Only Plan, no matter what, the billing cycle is still 30 days from the date of expiry, so if you renew 20 days after expiry, you only have 10 days left for the full speed data.

Failure to do pay, line will be terminated.

It's all listed in the Critical Information Summary.
