Giga NDP sale.
100GB for $12.
4G
Free 1GB apac roaming (one-time)

tks..going to downgrade from my 200GB $15 plan since I don't need so much data. 100GB for $12 more than sufficient.

btw, $12 is before or after GST?

Can anyone confirm if their 5G plan has a daily fair usage policy of 10GB?

I recall their 4G plan had this in place.

If this is the case, it would be meaningless to sign up for their 5G plan that offers 400GB.

For example, if there is a 10GB full-speed data cap, a road warrior doing huge downloads can only use 310GB a month. The remaining 90GB is unlikely to be used up since the capped speed is 1 Mbps.

Just tested it. Doesn't seem to have the FUP of 10GB or maybe it is now set higher?

Testing done - Giga 18 SGD plan
- Starting usage already 2GB
- Downloaded 10gb bin file from hetzner
- download speed test - still shows 500+ mbps ~~ 60m real download speed
- Redownload same 10gb file from hetzner, speed showed no real signs of slowing down
- Stopped at 2-3gb mark as i didn't want to heat up my phone so much already.

looks good deal but hor, their roaming only one time leh
It is in fact not a good deal ;)
It feels like a plan that is pushed out without much thought. Like "come look at me, i need attention"

If we look outside
Starhub
- Eight 188GB plan looks more attractive
- RedOne Best10 also looks better.

Singtel
- Vivifi 10 SGD plan or really of the any 10 SGD plan from zym or heya also more "benefits"

I mean it's much better deal compared to previous plan. I reckon cos rolled out of eight therefore they need to review their price

eight certainly more attractive but cs support not there as of now whereas giga has online support. easier. lol

Like they say, pay peanuts, get monkey ;)

In the end, cs support is like paying more for insurance when you need it. Hence people still go directly to traffic lights for their mobile plans. At least them they can go the shop and be a Karen/Ken:)

I still prefer paying peanuts

GIGA is the equivalent of ST GOMO, so it should not be better deal than SH MVNO and Eight. Just like GOMO cheapest plan is not enticing at all. By getting to $12 for 100GB, GIGA has set a new milestone for mid tier telco pricing. Meanwhile, Eight is still SH budget star.
