Thanks for the information. I have spoken to the retention department again, and a $5 monthly rebate (x12 months) is given to me. My internet line and phone line has different account holders. So according to Singtel, special privileges has been granted.

You owe me $60 + half x $46.90 subscription fee, $83 round down.

It's 10 months since I got this plan. I called up today and was offered 15 Mbps at 29.90. No bbom and no more phone line rebate.

So if I sign up with this. I will be paying at least 39.90 (including phone line) and additional a few dollars for phone usage per month. :(

Is switching to M1 a better choice for flat 39.90 a month? Is the one time installation charges worth it?

It is definitely worth to switch to M1 as you are using Fiber. Better latency (Speed of light) and better reliability than aging copper wires.

You get to port over and retain your Singtel number as well.

200 Mbps VS 10Mbps? Seriously? You can watch TV online for free as well! 10Mbps nowadays cannot do anything except minimal Facebook, Google Search and Hotmail.

is the speed slowww??

Mobile BB is always slower than Home BB.

3G / 4G coverage is the keyword of slow or not.

Some telco's 150Mbps plan on the go's typical speed is only 5Mbps ~ 40Mbps.

So the actual speed used on that plan is less than a third or even an eighth of it!

Soon to come telcos will cease operation for BB with phone line. Just like the 54k modem days. Then those user still on BB will auto upgrade to Fiber maybe free for 1yr. During my 54k modem usage, it was upgrade free from 54k - 256m - 512m - 1m. Only start to pay from 3m onwards.

Said goodbye to Singtel after 15 years (since dial up days).

Signed up with M1.

Yea. Did the same.
When I worked out the sum 10mbps becomes bo hua at $23.xx.

M1 200mbps @$39/mth
Singtel 10mbps @$23 + house phone $10 = $33/mth

If you want to renew the 10Mbps plan, use the contact us webpage on Singtel . It is better than call in.

The 10Mbps plan is still available if you still want.

I thought phone line rentals are billed quarterly? If every month $10 a lot of people would be making noise..
