Sick Of Singtel

[Flyguy63]

I am in a bind.Contractually my Mio Plan expires 7th July 2011.I was talked in to signing with the plan because I was told of the savings if I bundled it with my Broadband early last year.(I honestly didn't realise that the plan is for 30 months).I am sick and tired of Singtel because after almost 2 decades of loyal patronage,and mind you,I have NEVER once ask for a rebate or redemption of any kind from them,they steadfastly refuse to waive a $100/ penalty that I will incur I when I wanted to upgraded my phone.$100/....and they just outright plain refuse to waive it.So,cut to the chase,I have decided to jump ship to Starhub,lock,stock and barrel.I have 2 residential lines,2 mobile lines and Broadband from Singtel(am also a current Starhub Cable subscriber).I will incur a penalty of a total of about $1k(which I am willing to fork out to sever ties with Singtel),but if anyone have a better solution for me I will be most grateful.P.S. Do you guys think Starhub will offer me any incentives to offset abit of my Singtel penalties?Thank for listening guys.

Don't jump bcoz you're angry.

You will lose a lot due to contract. Just ride it out and then decide later.

 

No other ISP will pay for your damage to jump.

 

I have a contract with SingTel for mobilephone and I will patiently wait till 7 July 2010, then decide.

Most likely, I will move to Starhub for Mot Milestone promotion.

I chose not to install the "free" Mio setup which came with my broadband recontract 2 months back.

 

These things always come with strings attached

Yup...definitely.....told them they can keep it/...

 

 

I am looking to switch over once my contract finishes...but keeping my line no..to hell wf S..G..L

[Mike1234]

Well, wait till your contract going to expire soon then renew it again?

 

It costs more to jump here and there

 

Just my 2 cents...

[Dafansu]

my mio 3mbps singtel is so much faster than my starhub 16mbps. for your consideration

[Jman888]

if you are angry about the mio plan, consider the price different from the bb plan actually not much, just bear with it better than paying double for signing another vendor

yeah..i dumped starhub internet for singtel 2yrs back..and never looked back since then...until now, they have never failed to deliver the 10mbps speed..

 

then last year, i bundle my broadband, homeline, handphone and mio home together and i get phone upgrades every 12mths without the $100 penalty, plus i get 15% off my total bill every month..and MIO home cost me nothing at all...

ya lar bro.... each one of them got their problem lar... no point jump here jump there before contract end..... gonna to lugi..... just bear with it and after contract end, then see who got a better deal....

[Flyguy63]

Thanks for all the advise guys/gals.But I have given up on Singtel.For a fact, they don't value loyal patronage.I have not been offered any thing..ever from Singtel...nada...zip...zilch,not a reabte on my bill,discounts on phones,nothing...absolutely NOTHING!Well,in the 1st place,I never ask....maybe that's the problem.Still,I am seriously considering burning some serious $$$$ just so I can tell them to go take a very long walk on a very short pier!Singtel Super Sucks!

[Nlatio]

Don't be silly.

 

Do you think they'll care.

 

BTW do you like poetry?

 

ya lar.... sama sama for SH one.... few months back, finish my 2 years contract for the MOL.... they never bother to contact, I also forgotten..... I only realise when they send me the bill for payment without any discount (as the discount is for 2 years under contrcat).... from S$58++, I gonna pay 80++............. NBCCB, boh bian quickly go down and recontract.... pui

yes bro

 

i have around 7 mobile lines. 5 with starhub 2 with singtel and starhub voluntarily sends us $300 vouchers without asking!!! singtel even after you ask only give $50-100? and they dont give you the voucher, they only send it to the hello shop for you.

 

singtel sucks at cust svc

[Flyguy63]

No poetry per se,just some of them.And of course you can tell by my avatar of Dylan Thomas,his 'do not go gentle into that good night' is one of the poetry,if you can call it that,that i like. Back to Singtel.........Customer Service is a misnomer for them,there is no service to the customer!

[Cerano]

go sign up everything from starhub. got hub club discount

 

up to 30% for mobile line 10% for internet and tv? ( think so not sure)

[Ysc3]

all my mobile lines got no contract .... coz after my contract expire, i never re-contract ... give me bigger bargaining power when negotiating for payment or offers. and since a few years back, i have been buying phones without contracts.

 

only thing i am stuck with are the internet and pay-tv contracts .... that one bo-pian as no competition as all services and content is different.
