still confused between the new hi! postpaid plans vs sim only plans. are these the only main differences between the hi! $15 plan and $15.28 12mth contract plan? are there any gotchas that im not aware of?
no caller ID on the hi! plan
apac/worldwide roaming data on the hi! plan
unlimited local calls and sms on the hi! plan
500gb data on the hi! plan
1) Check out the following thread to see the differences.
SingTel S$15.28 will have higher priority for local usages. It has 250GB or 340GB local data bundle which is good enough for most users. It only has 50GB Malaysia Roaming. But if you pay for the more expensive roaming add-on, it will have higher roaming priority as well. It supports roaming voice and SMS but the charges are very high.
SingTel hi! Postpaid S$15 5G plan has higher local data and roaming data bundles. Better roaming bundles is the main advantage. It has lower priority for local usage and roaming.

2) SingTel hi! Postpaid plan has free Caller ID.

hi! Plan does not support these features:
• Roaming calls and SMS services are not available while overseas. However, you can still receive OTPs in destinations that support 3G networks.
• Outgoing local calls to 1900 numbers
• Incoming and outgoing video calling
• Incoming and outgoing MMS
• Outgoing Global SMS
• Transfer of ownership
3) In any case, SingTel hi! does not have contract, you can always give it a try to see if it is good enough for you or not.
