SIMBA Telecom discussion thread

sounds like a SIM card issue, are you using physical SIM? If so, you might need a sim replacement. I have this issue with my parents phone, are replacing SIM, no more issue.

Not SIM problem, the outage is timed, between 10+pm and 12am only. Unless it is an AI SIM card that knows how to choose when to be faulty.

The signal connection is full bar too with SMS and voice call working, only no data connection within that 2 hours for the last 2 evenings. It has to be Simba's side issue.

I haven't noticed this. Couldn't actually...

Take it as a national effort to make everybody go to bed by 10pm!

My son was in KL with $15 SIMBA's PrePaid SIM.

Sunday night about 15 mins before midnight he tried to call me over 5 times but he couldn't get thru - calls get terminated.

He used Whatsapp & the normal/default way of calling, both unsuccessful.

But I received missed calls notifications on my phone's Whatsapp, but not on the default phone app.

FYI

First moral of the story was "Be in bed by 10pm", and now the second, "Never rely on just one network".

I've both Maxis Hotlink and Digi in most of my devices when I travel.

For the past 2 days, ard 10+pm till 12am, my Simba lost its data connection despite full bar signal, SMS and Voice app worked though. Air plane mode, restart or swap devices did not help. Or could it be my data had been used too much and Simba imposed a restriction during this time? I still left ard 100+GB before my next renewal in less than 10 days.

just a curious question, not a solution.

if data connection was lost, how did the voice app still work? (since it works on data connection)

Not something to bring us into Christmas 2027, is it? Since I'll already be seeing 2026 with this .

I was just trying to convince myself about an hour ago that the 20-20 promo meant beyond mid-2026 isn't my responsibility. The rest is actually FOC, don't need to feel so guilty.

It could work through either wifi or another sim card.

Indeed, i was confused too. I am even using Voice app to call too instead of VoLTE as the device is not VoLTE-capable, a very weird scenario. Nevertheless, last evening (the 3rd evening) had no outage problem, will see how it goes for the next few days.

$9.99 SIMBA 10Gbps Broadband".

Nothing on mobile so far.

Indeed, but the device wifi was not turn on and there is only 1 SIMBA network used in the device.

Simba may be slowly down in their mobile sector since they already going to have the M1 big pie market share soon. So Fibre BB is the only sector to work on, but Fibre BB is not as interesting as mobile for most people.

simba tech deals seems to be only for Fibre
