Xiaomi 14. Just updated the OS. Suddenly can vowifi. Before the update, cannot.

My wife iphone 15 cannot.

Guess something to do with how the network recognises these phones.

I suspect in this case it has to do with the IMS profile loaded in the respective OS.

thanks, i did check out the features on MR site, and came to similar questions. ie
- it appears to be more of a call forwarding service (as implied in the app setup instructions)
- reference to GSM network may be a generic synonym for cellular network, but to be confirmed.
- presumably it uses 4G/5G/wifi data network, but does it require a supported/whitelisted handphone too? no info...
- not enough info to determine yet to determine if it will be a viable alternative to the simba voice app. may need a subscription to hands on.

the main concern with trying a subscription is, their talk app only works on 4G plans. Reportedly it runs on m1 infra, and i'm not keen to go back there.


edit: noticed you started a new thread. tks

Anyone has experience porting out a SIMBA lucky number a few months after signing up?

Do you have any issues with the porting? I read somewhere that there's a penalty involved.

Anyone ported to Simba between 11/11 & 17/11 to enjoy the $11 credit? $11 should be credited on 18/11. I ported to Simba on 11/11 and to-date, nothing is credited. Escalated, hope Simba will action asap. Never expect this to happen with Simba. 😥

thought of buying

https://registration.simba.sg/rego/?selectedOffers=SIMBA_Mobile_SO130GB_Bundle_202402

for oversea travel. Traveling with my mum to 3 asia country and her poco phone doesn't have esim

Is there consequence of buying for 1 month and then just let it die by not paying after that?

If you just want data for overseas travel, I suggest you get data sim from shopee instead of signing up with simba.

Cos simba comes with local data and sms and talktime, with a minimum 1 month commitment, technically 2 months. It's a local line which you can port to and stay on simba, you can use it for seamless travel plans in the future.
