May I know how you made the $40 top-up? To benefit top-up must be done at any SIMBA's shops.

I just back from JB and it was a breeze when using the roaming provided by SIMBA.

As advised, just on the data roaming on your phone, and once cleared the causeway in a while, it switched over to "CELCOM".

Understand that both Celcom and U Mobile as Simba roaming partner in Malaysia, so when you active your data roaming on your phone.

1) do you auto or manual select the carrier?

2) what if you auto select but your phone accidentally tap on network other than those of either Celcom or U Mobile, would extra roaming charges be incurred?

Ever since they started sharing SG-MY data, I put it to Auto 24/7.

All the time saw Celcom if auto-connected, otherwise just do manual setting. Never bothered to check if network goes to other networks ever since.

Celcom usually for me too if auto select carrier. Signal wise, depends on location. I find Celcom better than U Mobile in most places. You can manually shift to the other carrier if the signal is better. All 4G for me for both carriers so far.

The allocated GB for APAC or Malaysia is lower than Zero1 and Eight.
Click to expand...

Simba $10 plan gives you 200GB SG/MY
$12 plan gives you 250GB SG/MY data

Eight $8 plan gives you 288GB SG/MY

Zero1 $10.10 plan gives you 112GB MY data
Zym $10.10 plan gives you 110GB MY data

But take note, Zym and Zero1, the 100GB Malaysia data is for 90-days (3months) only. thereafter will revert to 3GB APAC with an additional 10GB and 12GB respectively for 12 months

Depends how you see it, on paper, eight is cheapest with 288GB SG/MY. Simba is definitely not the lowest data bundle allocated for Malaysia
