Have anyone applied for multi SIM for Simba? I did state for work use . But they rejected my request.
Does Simba SG have multi SIM?!? :s31:

I miss those days when I could leave home only with my Apple watch. That's with ST, but the reception even on the phone... :crazy:

*Keeping my eyes out for Simba multi SIM now.*

Sorry Bro, does this means I can't call thru the normal way anymore? Or I just need to be on volte?
You need to have function VoLTE.
That means
1) your phone needs to support VoLTE, usually not a problem, unless one of the older ones (>5 years old) or those less common ones.
2) the network needs to support VoLTE, in SG no issue, but overseas not all network support VoLTE roaming with Simba.
3) At areas with poor reception you can use the voice app if you have other data connections. This is no longer possible if the voice app no longer works. Potentially wifi calling could be an alternative, but that doesn't work with iPhones.

No SG telco has multi-sim except for M1 & her MVNOs. Think it has something to do with IMDA

But with the extra $$$ paid for having the feature, it might be better to go for another sim with another number. Since you mentioned it's for work purpose, it should be covered right?

There's a workaround though if you have an iphone. Activate the voice app in that phone then put the sim back to where it was intended for.
There's a problem though. Outgoing calls isn't the issue, incoming calls are. You might or might not get them. I have the voice app in the background permanently, but only get incoming calls sometimes.
And if it's for your work purpose, then might as well get a new sim. Plans are quite cheap nowadays

And this was NumberShare. Will Simba ever have this? :unsure:

It does happen. So you may want to manually pick the network providers - Celcom, UMobile & Digi - to see if one works better for you.

Surfing 5G Simba on 5 year old iPhone, from Buona Vista to the west end. No problem.

Unless you say senior plan no good, then I won't know. :crazy:

SIMBA Telecom enabled 5G NSA on Circle Line and parts of Thomson East Coast Line​


https://en.ocworkbench.com/simba-te...01G3ykObaAViteDQRg_aem_oQ8sZDEwYWvAO9C8GCTUFg
Finally they have it. Still long before we see 5G NSA on EWL and NSL
maybe will see mr potter coming back to test this soon.
Unlikely, Kelvin Porter is now deeply in love with Zym. Simba 5G NSA is like m1 and starhub 4G speeds.
Comparing Singtel 5G SA and Zym Singtel 5G NSA, it's seems 5G NSA is faster.
