Looks like he is using a mobile phone. The screen will show only the S$14.8 per month 5G plan.

Need to swipe to the right to see the other three plans: S$18 5G plan, S$11.8 4G plan and S$8 4G plan.
Seem like it only show senior plan 4G $5, don have $8 4G normal plan already. Can't find it, anyone know where they hide it?

How much do you think their 5G cost with $88 top up promo? You can keep thinking and worry

If worry so much, just skip eight and choose the rest, there are at least 4 main telcos/MVNOs plans to choose from. And all of them 4G plans are $10 and below.

personally I am happy with my eight and I have recommended 3 more friends at least to use. And one friend is using eight all along. none of them have complaints about the coverage and speed so far.

I am using eight also. My monthly usage is high also in both Lion city and bolehland which it shows that it is decent for me. 😁 Renewal date is 20 Feb 2026.

Same infrastructure.

Upgrading to 5G gives you another "traffic lane" to work with.

Just treat it as investment then. You win some, you lose some.
Even if you hate the service so much that you port out, you only lose $88. Don't lie to yourself and think that you lost $176

On EIGHT cheapest 5g plan at $14.80, the 1 for 1 topup ($88) would have lasted you 11 months which actually is just $8 per month
