SIMBA Telecom discussion thread

[jayjay0702]

This information from where ?

It was from the network list found under the FAQs

They have conflicting info. I had asked the CS yesterday and at first they confirmed with me that China is still under group B. However I had show them the new network list updated on the 25th Apr. Until now still pending reply.

Ya weird seems like they removed it. The list now shows 15 march again.

Might be just a human error.

I had a pleasant porting experience.
Signed up with SIMBA at about 7pm with esim
Next day woke up. Already on SIMBA with my ported number

SIMBA porting usually is quite smooth, unless there are some technical issue or Telco identity issue. The port over will be done in that night.

Thanks tips. I was thinking the same. But can you imaging in Netherlands I tried more than 20 wifi. Also not working on incoming call. And Germany the same. But why outgoing call is fine.but incoming is not working.

Does the incoming work in Spore?

Just to be sure, maybe can just try in the Apps.

More -> Settings -> Calls -> Call Barring -> Barring of all incoming call -> Deativate

I just ported my Circles Life to SIMBA.

iPad Air 5 don’t have 5G option.

iPhone XR and iPhone 13 gave 5G option

U need go to the official website, then click Menu -> FAQ.

If you can make call using the Simba voice app, but cannot receive call, everything is working fine. It is your phone setting issue. This is because your phone is trying to save battery. It will disable all apps in the background. You have to enable the Simba voice app to work in the background. In Xiaomi phone, you have to find the battery setting and set the Simba voice app to no restrictions. Then everytime you reboot your phone, make sure you open the app.
The down side is the app will drain your battery very fast.

at my dining table its 3mbps up and down. at my hall i get 65 down and 2.8 up.

But its my home where my data come from my wifi, so its ok. Monday i go whitesand mall to test test.

Forgotten to speedtest but saw full bars at the B1 of White sand. Was at Pasir Ris Park beach side, 1 to 2 bars.

Just switched from Giga. The difference is big, but i went in with my eyes opened.

At outdoor, signal is generally acceptable, at changi cargo area, signals are good. OTP sms is slightly laggier than giga, but not to the extend of an time out from my bank app.

Future travel to EU will switch to their SuperRoam MAX, countries coverage is wide.

So would you highly recommend giga users to jump ship to simba? I'm currently using giga $10 plan but might be considering simba since they offer more data and has free data roaming

If you want to watch your streaming video everywhere you go, then I cannot recommend SIMBA. There will be times SIMBA just cannot make it. Otherwise, it's a workable plan. And if it doesn't work out, you can switchback to Giga, can't we?
