normal … just continue with M plan !
but on the day of collection i will ask CSO for their opinion
i’m pretty sure they’ll say M > Core

im already thinking pointless to take Pay Later 12 mths or 24 mths …
it’s like servicing FAM all over (i was on till i got out last year)
M, just pay for discounted phone …
next year trade-in !
no need worry Buy Back price or policy change etc
Trade in next yr? And recontract with penalty?

we need a stinktel thread for iphone 16 to track pro max volume availability

over at official Apple Store, can get Gold latest by 5 Oct

for black, grey and white, can still get anytime from 25 to 28 Sept now (9.30pm)

overall demand for iPhone 16 pro max is low

Is it worth to switch to fam plan and get the 1tb 16pm at $0 and yearly upgrade ? Thinking to switch from starhub as no incentive from them despite on their highest tier plan

do a calculation over 2 years eg FAM vs M plans … including early recontract fees to be added for M plan at $356 (non key line) or $153 (key line) and also Caller ID, and cost of iphone (use same models in your comparison)
then at the end of the 2 years total, subtract the amount from your iphones sales

post back your findings pls.
thanks 🙏

You need to count in the overseas data cost on X amount of overseas trip per year.

Then the voucher can exchange some stuff and sell for $ or for use.

Somethings such as convenience cannot be easily measured I feel.

You can camp at telco website from 23 Sept Monday onwards

there will be stock status for physical SingTel shop and online store eg selling fast for 256, 512 or 1TB😂

So late? I recall one year I forgot the preorder but still manage to get within same month (Sept)

I’m pretty sure I’m a key line with fam but I see the app early recontract fee is $305.

how do you guys get $153?

wash rinse spin cycle mah
every year do same same … u guessed it, like laundry 🤣

will just stick to M plan x2 (one key line, one non) + 1 other SIM ONLY (but no handset upgrade. likely hand-me-down next year)
that SIM ONLY recontracted 2 weeks back when i recontracted my broadband
i asked abt Core (but not detailed) CSO says the one i recontract even cheaper (SIM ONLY PLUS 45) coz now get 150GB whole year as opposed to last year when it was a combo, and there’s a 20% discount of $9.17 (plan outright is $45.85) and $3.66 (Circle Mobile discount), and yes, Caller ID foc

$153 is keyline general
but FAM keyline is useless since you get $500 recontract voucher yearly !
nominate another line as keyline instead

the $500 voucher ?
isn’t that used to offset the early (yearly) recontract fees ?
or am i missing something here 🤔

anyway i would’ve failed had i still been on it coz i failed to secure a 1TB set just now 🫢

Termination have 2 parts right.. the mobile device which is at 3xx and the remaining 12 mths x the monthly fee..
If you do it yearly, why not go core plan instead.. will be cheaper overall but monthly pay more only.. bill rebate another 3.33 under reds.. maybe I count wrongly? Lol
