Yes bro, again with or without TPG, it used to always work but the downtime always kicks in whenever I insert the sim into a new device... Damn f***** up lah...

Port out within 30 days have a $30 charge some more... Knn sia..

UPDATE: SCREW THIS, I'm terminating and porting out... What an utter disappointment, and btw, it already happened 4-5 times... Email and writing to them is useless FYI as they take 6-8 hours to reply

Yes bro, it worked for me too... Not saying it doesn't work, just that the downtime kicks in when I pop the SIM into a new device...

Setup/APN etc in fact auto de, just pissed with the 'random downtimes' and dont know when it'll resume to normal service again...

Hmm to cut it short, between work phone and personal...

That aside, I dont experience these 'random downtimes' with other telcos though...

 

[frizee]

See, now can "suddenly" resume normal service and ok already?! LOL WTF right....

Maybe a reminder for those wanting to sign up (for my case):
Data: can SPAM a lot no worries one lol
Signal: Pretty good infact
VoLTE: Works well
Calls/SMS: maybe I'm not lucky or what, experience random downtimes (6th time it happened as of Today)

I just got my sim card 2 days ago, and popped into my spare iPhone. When setting up iPhone, iPhone can't verify my number via SMS or call because my number "is not valid".

are you porting over or brand new number?

 

[Tenpai]

Brand new. Signed up on Monday, picked up on Tuesday and received email saying it is activated on Tuesday

But when it comes to signing in iCloud to verify number, iOS say cannot verify via SMS/call because number is invalid

Nope, can't be. I was signing up for a new iCloud account.

Hmm, at the very least, can you use your working sim to call this TPG sim?

Or, does it even show the telco logo?
