Nightkids 6th Gear June 4, 2012 Share June 4, 2012 I like this line - "We also understand that current customers who choose not to re-contract will be able to continue with their current plans, but this will mean no subsidies for a cheaper handset." I rather buy a new handset at full price Ha ha ha....in this case, ST, ST and M1 can stop selling handphones liao.....they only provide service can already....... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maroon5 5th Gear June 4, 2012 Share June 4, 2012 honestly the 3G now is a joke. i 1mth clock less than 500MB becos its so hopeless tat i cant b bothered w too many data apps. consumers here really sad...telcos only fined when breakdown svs but under-deliver performance no issue one. in fact in the developed countries 3G ranking, sg is one of the lowest. :angry: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tjkbeluga 5th Gear June 4, 2012 Share June 4, 2012 Currently, I have 2 Starhub SmartSurf300 plans. Wonder if all existing plans will be force to adopt new plans or only new plans will be affected.

Mysportwish 1st Gear June 4, 2012 Share June 4, 2012 who will penalise them if we do not achieve the download speed? Even if IDA impose penalty on them, it is not returned back to comsumer this is really absurd, aren't they violating anti-competition law? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ladykillerz 4th Gear June 4, 2012 Share June 4, 2012 Singapore is a small island and filled with dense population. Imagine one HDB flat, every household, say four adults, sharing one internet access and four mobile phones. Singapore Telcos are making lots of monies and with the current 3G speed is already one BIG joke. Just by comparing with South Korea, big country and yet super fast internet speed on mobile phone. We should not praise Singapore Telcos. Moving from 3G to 4G connectivity should be much earlier. They are already slower than expected. Again, small country should provide much better connectivity than bigger countries. Oh well... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maroon5 5th Gear June 4, 2012 Share June 4, 2012 They already covered themselves with a "up to" clause. seriously even if they dun put "up to", consumers stil lose as "a myriad of factors and unique circumstances could still prevent optimal connectivity". one word - no consumer rights.
