Even worse than MNPs’ own Sim-only plan.

Dun see the purpose of existence of this.

 

[cruizer_ph]

if only SG user, Giga plans are cheaper.

if traveling to CN or HK, this might be good

 

[hanneng]

agree ..

beside SG, they also run MVNO in UK, Canada, JP, Thailand..
seem like they targeting a niche market segment ..

 

[Yihaoong]

$15 for 5gb

They have good backing. Otherwise sure close shop.

China man is looking for the cheapest plan instead of simi roaming back home or to hk. Back home their data is dirty cheap.

China power.

Nice. It is good the data/minutes can be used in China under China Mobile. Good for occasional travellers to HK and China

Grid Mobile also better..

 

[CPTMiller]

Grid Mobile also better..

But Grid need to buy data pack to use in China or Hong Kong.

But Grid need to buy data pack to use in China or Hong Kong.

honestly, for that price, i rather take a local prepaid card. anyway how often and when can we travel to those countries given the current situation right...

i am a fan of icc sim cards for overseas usages, instead of roaming packages offered by telcos

But.... Great Firewall of China is the biggest issue here.
Going to China for short term isn’t about getting cheap prepaid Sim there, you get the VPN the savings would be Long gone.

There’s a reason why some people purposely fly to HK to buy those Sim that can get service in mainland China also. Data traffic will go through HK IP instead of PRC IP.

If it’s using SingTel e-ideas or hicard APN, I expect it to work like SG IP address.

That is, no restrictions.

 

[Angtehkor]

So expensive. Who want to give this company business. I will not because the mobile plan is not attractive to me. Too expensive Liao

 

[hanneng]

every telco out there (MNO or MVNO) have done their home works

look at the plan, CMLinks is targeting a niche market segment and is not competing with the major telco here.

beside the SG, China Mobile has offer mobile services in JP, Thai, UK, Canada market too, so I believe this is their global strategy ..
