SIMBA Telecom discussion thread

I have a question hope to get some answer here...

My SuperRoam12 billing cycle is on 1st day of the month. (I already PAID for this month)

If today I upgrde to SuperRoam20, I was ask to pay $20 immediately to change the plan.

Why is it not just top up the different $amount of $8 ?

Each company has it's own way of billing and they don't do any pro-ration.

You can do just that, but it'll leave a bad record.

There is no outstanding amount, it is not a case of default in payment but natural lapse of plan so should not be affecting one's credit rating.

Simba/eight/maxx operate in a prepaid manner so there should not be an issue with owned amount.

Same same but different I suppose. Eg. If one gets golden number and decided to terminate within required committed period and ignore outstanding payment, it will ruin one's credit rating.

True, although I hardly find the golden number to be of any interest, unless those 4 digit price type.

How about north east region of China, by now connection speed should be better right? If anyone roaming in shenyang with simba recently?
Plan to visit shenyang in Oct, was thinking use gomo Asia roaming add on, but if there better option?

speed will depend on the roaming partner.
not using gomo anymore, so can't comment.

I'm in JB....Just now used Android SIMBA's Voice app to call AUS, I noticed the mins were deducted from my IDD quota.

I thought it was free...did I do something wrong or assumed incorrectly?

If you call AU in SG, it would be deducted from IDD also, why would that be any different just because you roam?
If you call MY that might be a different story.

Simba Voice App is to facilitate a call, when VOLTE isn't available with the roaming network. Deduction is made from the IDD quota.

Simba Voice App is to facilitate a call, when VOLTE isn't available with the roaming network.

SIMBA's voice app also has (or had) another purpose: to provide voice and SMS support on devices that support 4G LTE but not VoLTE. Some older devices fit that profile.

I recall this to be the original purpose.

This is an upgrade plan from $12 to $20.
So you need pay upfront $20 and old plan ceased and new plan new entitlement 30 days start immediately. So how to prorated.

The $20 plan have very good data Roaming quota suitable for frequently traveling
