I just checked my contract from the email sent. Port-in date is 6 Dec. But I wonder why need so many working days.

Where are you porting in from?
I believe 06 Dec might be the latest date that the port in might happen.

Cover themselves in case of unexpected delays. The boss give you 3 working days deadline, will you tell your boss 1 day can already ? In my experience, usually 1~2 days max. I will also never activate port in just before weekends.

I recently port in to Vivifi from RedOne:

A summary of my port in experience from RedOne > ViViFi
26th Nov : service application, ordered physical sim and paid for door to door delivery
27th Nov : received & activate temp SIM, submitted port in request
28th Nov : port in successful

Normal. My port in to M1 from SH took one whole week. Call SH, SH say they never receive anything from M1. Call M1 they ask me check SH.

Would love to see your results for this as I travel along these places too.

Eventually I have chance to do the acid test, turn on hotspot for my car to connect to download firmware package (~5GB) while driving from woodlands to Jurong East,
SLE -> BKE->KJE->PIE -> Jurong East.
*BKE/KJE & KJE/ PIE. Both junctions are notorious low coverage area.

During the commute, Google YouTube music streaming ( not downloaded play since my car YouTube music don't come with this buffering technique yet) was active.

No music pause interruption, Car firmware complete package downloaded


So far no disappointment.
Value for money $15 CIS plan. 300GB .

Not bad, another happy M1 customer.

I am on CIS plan as well for my primary connection.. So far quite stable and speed is good compared to a year ago where I had frequent disconnections on 5G.

If M1 add some free roaming data allowance, this would be a almost perfect plan. For now, I just use another SIM from Eight for roaming.

Does M1 has minimum period? Just signed up $15/month 150GB plan, intending to stay/use for less than a month. Any penalty, like SIMBA will charge $30 or so if port out for less than 30 days.

should be stated in you TnC when you signed up

 

[Spladox]

I signed up for the $15 (200gb) 5g plan
I notice the 5Go service only for free for 7 months? Does this means after 7 months it will change to 4G?

It will be chargeable after 7 months, unless you terminate the VAS

Oh, is it?
I shall try and monitor when the time comes, since this was what I was advised when signing up when I questioned why Caller ID only 6 months.

Yup, nonsensical to still charge for caller ID.
