question here for folks that have used Simba roaming in Malaysia (Celecom) and China, how was the reception? Any feedback? I will be mostly using MY roaming in Sabah and KL. Thanks.

Cellcom is like Singtel in Malaysia.. No issue.. Sabah should be the same since it is a big city

Back in the days we pou dengwah zouk. Last time I can easily 2 hours on the phone, back then utilising the free unlimited calls to 3 m1 friends.

Now simba to simba also unlimited. But no longer pou dengwah zouk. Cos all use simple whatsapp text (no whatsapp call, I hate it). Haha

No issues for JB & PEN & Zhuhai & Hong Kong.

I've experienced in JB signal dropped below 4G (my phone is not a 5G phone). So did the the Airplane Mode dance & all is fine.

Simba to mobile line and vice versa is unlimited, not just simba to simba.

Yeah. Simba is good for people doing sales. Unlimited talktime. Somemore can have the ability to have private number, mask your number for free. Opps 🙊

my insorance friend says she using it to cold call and use the unlimited talk time.

Well those who knows how to use will be happy. Those who do not will always be looking for alternatives.

Just change plan from 100GB SIM only to 200GB SIM only. Henceforth, don't have to buy NOMAD or Airalo which cost typically US$20 for 5GB Europe plan. Consider that I need to travel at least twice per year to Europe, it is good deal to sign up with SIMBA especially SIMBA one come with 300 minutes IDD where NOMAD and Airalo are solely data only. SIMBA is really disrupting the telecommunication market in SG, I don't know how they do it, they always the first one to bring cost down and other telcos follow. I would change my Whizcomms broadband to SIMBA too soon to support them.

I just signed up also. For $2 more I get extra 4 GB of roaming.

This extra 4gb will ends 31 December. It's not permanent.

I apologise if I read it wrongly and you refering to another Simba plan.

I was refering to the $12 SIM-Only 200GB. The extra 3GB only till 31 December 2024.
ah... okay no need to apologies, just want to know also. Probably they will extend the offer like usual.

given Simba's modus operandi, the roaming of 5GB will be permanent.

Last time when they say $12 200GB data is valid for 6 mths, after 6 mths will be 130GB. Now is 200GB permanent.

next mth, so the last 5 days of your previous $10 plan will be forfeited

and your cycle for $12 also changed, i.e. the 25th day changed will be 1st day for the $12 plan
