Zxcvb Turbocharged November 21, 2014 Share November 21, 2014 Singtel got this new 1GB for S$10 per month while roaming under Maxis network in Malaysia.

I checked the FAQ, it says use 1 month after that can unsubscribe using the Singtel app. Good for my road trips into Malaysia. Just ensure to put manual select network to maxis. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lausai88 Hypersonic January 10, 2015 Share January 10, 2015 you guys know google map uses a lot of data, very expensive to use this apps in overseas. 2 days ago, I was in Macau and I subscribed the dataroam saver plan @$15/day. I took a 5.30pm ferry from Macau to HK. I thought since it is quite late, decided not to subscribe the dataroam plan in HK to save $15 my hotel is just a 10mins walk from HK ferry terminal, too many pretty gals in HK, was busy admiring them and somehow lost my way. decided to use google map to bring me to the hotel. Google map uses GPS and I thought GPS is FREE. when I reached the hotel, received a sms from Singtel informing me that I have hit $100 data roaming charges and to prevent any bill shocks, the system auto-disable my dataroaming for the day Good that Singtel provides a dataroam limit else I burn a hole in my pocket. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
