Simba really killed many mvnos out of the picture.

The transfer of ownership part I am not sure if it means anything, MyRepublic also no longer process that, so I wonder if it is a starhub thing. But other signs are not good as well.

Went with them since they launched, IIRC they never had good roaming deals.
No USP honestly..
