SIMBA Telecom discussion thread

[krazyhippo]

we are already the top xx% of people who care about tech and comms. You won't believe how many percents of people don't care at all. I've seen a lot of people still surfing on Singtel / Starhub 3G because of wrong APN settings, and they didn't notice

What are the different APN for 3G and 4G or 5G

What are the different APN for 3G and 4G or 5G

for example for singtel prepaid card. If you set to "e-ideas" APN, there is a chance that only able to connect to 3G network. Also chance to have 4G connection, but no internet. Not always, but maybe.

And that is a different question which the answer to it you have to find out yourself.

What I meant is that due to incorrectly set APN, some users face strange issues connecting to networks, reflected as not able to use some type of service, or unable to use the internet.

I want to port out from tpg.

Can it be done? Because it looks like a prepaid number to me and I've no idea how to make it postpaid or what ever.

I can’t speak exactly for the $20 plan as I’ve never tried before, but I’ve used the 1gb roaming ($10 plan) and superroam max ($25 plan) in Australia (Gold Coast, Melbourne, Sydney). Both experiences were exactly the same, so I don’t see why the $20 will not work

 

[greenmango]

Anyone tried roaming with "SuperRoam Max" in Japan? How was the connection?

My colleagues have been to both countries and roamed with simba $10 plan and it worked without any issues.

The superroam plan or $10 plan doesn't matter for roaming, only differences is the data allowances. 1GB vs 10GB.

Went taiwan on ndp week- immediately connected to roaming when switching on phone on aeroplane after landed taxing to airport

Ulu hilly region wulai, shiding, shengkeng, volte + 4g data available.

Surfing 虾皮 shopee to get 88% coupon + buy 10 cents items on 12pm sharp next to waterfall

Using redmi note 9T on $5 senior plan, didn't set to 5g

 

[zulthezookeeper]

Anyone has success getting 5G consistently? I saw it popped up for a few minutes on my iPhone. Had the setting on 5G Auto.

I see that SIMBA says 2 working days for port in. Do they include weekends being a working day? Asking because my Gomo renews on 21st aug, so not sure if I can make it in time to pay 1 month less. Will be opting for Simba E-sim.

U already answer yourself. “Working” day

 

[JivBunny]

sorry to ask a very noob qns, the top up is for prepaid only is it? if we on postpaid plan then the top up is not applicable cos we just pay the recurring bill every month?

Yes.
So that is what I am doing now.

I top up my parents card once every 6 months with $50at the shop.

They will slowly draw down per month.
