I suggest you off the Wi-Fi next time and try again. The problem may be due to the free Wi-Fi, it is too weak to connect you.

As i often encounter when travelling DTL. Whenever reach the next station, the data will freeze, after a while when train move forward, 2 seconds connect back.

After i turn off the Wi-Fi, it seems to be getting better. Yet it is still existed.

Unless you are on My130 plan (10gb roaming Malaysia) .. All standard plan is 1gb data roam Group A per month. Please check simba website FAQ.

yes, data freeze, ok, will try with wifi off, thanks for sharing!

If you have wireless@sg wifi setup. Best to disable wifi when you not connected to one. Because nowadays many wireless@sg AP everywhete and it does affect your connection auto switching between wifi mobile etc. Especially in mrt area

you may like to login to their website.

Login and browse to your account -> Services -> Your plan -> support Intl roaming - if the value is true than it is activated.

Thereafter, you can only ascertain the auto-roam when you abroad.

need log in using browser (not SIMBA app), then click on the Home icon, next to the Home icon, your mobile number will appear with hyperlink , then click on your mobile number, then it brings you to a page with the word Features , look below this Feature you see an arrow (or triangle) with the word Mobile Service, click on the arrow to expand the display, then scroll down through the lists (should be item number 11 or there about) and look for support Intl Roaming , look across this row to see if true is display ? or false display ?
