IMHO.
If based on price sensitivity, no need to compare.

Last time when it was TPG, I asked someone on TPG connectivity when on the move.
The person told me it is intermittent at times.
I asked - then how at those times ?
Reply - don't use lor.

Hmm I was in HCM and used up nearly 7gb though

Eh wth I just checked, simba deducts $12.10 and now my balance is $7.90 anyhow sia :confused:
wah...how come yours ok sia?

I use simba on both iphone and andriod, my friend on andriod all chui..

$12.10 becos you call local viet number ? vietnam is not included as part of the free idd.

every telco also got issue one.

last time i use singtel, got anyhow bill my what premium service issue. called them and talk to those pinoy cs vomitted half of my blood.

use M1 got poor network at home issue. called them and they told me cos my house a lot of pillar so bo bian wtf.

use starhub somethings will lost signal. need to toggle flight mode to get network.

change to TPG network slower but everything works. at least no stupid pillar issue.

no thoughts of jumping ship either cos i married to their cheap plan and the overseas data.

singtel 5g is good cos i know got coverage

voice roaming yes. I need for work

countries wise i think both covers well

Simba plan looks cheaper vs zym. If can work as well, why not. Simba also seem more established
Then it boils down to whether simba's additional data roaming countries and lower price is worth it compared to higher speed 5G on Sintel/Zym, and how voice roaming coverage for both compares.

Simba has free VoLTE for selected countries, for others countries you need to use voice app.
For Singtel/zym voice roaming is chargeable at a very high price, and I am not sure how is the VoLTE agreements compare to Simba.

what if i install the voice app and the country supports volte?

will the phone ring like a normal call or the app will always alert?
