Today, strange...

I was outside with SIMBA, my phone not a 5G phone, so was on 4G/4G+. Tried to top-up MRT Card via SimplyGo app; tried a few times but all kept spooling awaiting for SMS OTP. Finally gave up.

When at home, connected to home WiFi, I tried again & this time no problem ie manage to top-up the Card.

Then I immediately switched off WiFi & with only SIMBA connected I tried to top-up another Card, & the same thing happened like when I was outside. I decided not to top-up via WiFi yet & continue to play2 with SIMBA - still no luck after an hour+.

Previously, I realized now, I've been successfully topping up via my home WiFi & twice when I was in JB via Celcom with SIMBA's Roaming.

So please let me know where I can feedback to SIMBA for improvement.

Thanks.

P/S: So can I receive SMS OTP via solely SIMBA's network? My answer now is no.

Simba said do not need to change new sim card? What is the version number on the sim card? I just signed up and collected sim card last week, on the sim card printed v3.
