when I had simba, I only used 2 GB monthly and 50% was on speed test because I was frustrated at the slowness

Does anyone still face connection issues when in deep underground, like taking MRT, etc?

Which mrt line and which sector?

East West Line, Tiong Bahru to Outram Park sector, all the 4 Telcos is very weak.

Currently on Sim-Only 100GB. Planning to travel Australia for about a week and was thinking to "interim upgrade" to either SuperRoam 50GB (30D) or SuperRoam Max.

Anyone tried this before? Do I need to change my sim card or I just need to make the changes via the app?


or.. should I separately buy a esim plan just for my trip? Thanks!


Sent on the go!

I would suggest buying a local SIM instead

I ported my simba number to circles flexi. I did it during my 2nd month on Simba and topped up $10 to make sure the Simba line is active. I did the port out on the 22nd day into the plan just to be safe.

I used the 2nd month roaming data in KL, so it was not a total waste of money. During my KL trip I finished 1gb of roaming data each from the 2 free Sim cards from Eight mobile and then about 400mb from this Simba SIM.

Bye bye Simba.

No new sign ups. Those who have also, it will be upgraded over time.

I see, no wonder it sounded familiar and I know that they are discontinuing the plan.

any1 managed to port from changimobile to TPG ? cant seem to find changi mobile in the drop down list on tpg website

Received an email from SIMBA Customer support regarding port in Application Form. Online, as CHANGIGO mobile is not listed as a telco on the "current Telco" on the drop down list. The suggestion was to choose M1 instead. Probably because M1 is the backbone carrier for ChangiGo. After applying as advised the application went through and its being processed. It will take about 2 to 5 days forbpostal delivery. Hopefully the processing passes the port "out" from ChangiGo.

 

[xenon672]

Select M1.

When you are collecting the TPG sim card at the collection point, let the staff know that you are porting from Changi Mobile.

Show them the Changi Go app, the mobile plan page.

They will take a picture of that app (showing your mobile number and the Changi Mobile logo) and submit into their system.

Within 24 to 48 hours, as stated, the port in will be completed.

Welcome to TPG.

I have been using TPG for more than two weeks now. Previously was also with Changi Mobile. The TPG data connection is usually full bar 4G+ and full bar 4G, much better than Changi Mobile.

You will definitely love TPG as much as I love TPG.

Official Reply from SIMBA support: for online application for port in from ChangiGo mobile, use "M1" .

Contemplating to change to eSIM ($5 fee) on my iPhone 14. If I were to upgrade to iPhone 16 in September, would I have to pay $5 again?
