Call CS at 1318. Your phone should be able to call umobile CS for free even though cannot call out.

I encountered the same when I MNP. The CS reset something and told me to switch off and on the phone after 10 min. It worked after that. Mine is Samsung S2.

This would mean, for example, if you running a background program that goes online every 5 mins to check for updates, then even each time it connects it's only use a few 10kb or whatever, it would charge 5 sens each time.




if you have app that set to auto software updates, that will consume a lot of data. I got the same shock at first, until I set everything to manual software updates. Also, you can save money by switching off unused app.

I spend no more than $0.70 if I have no wifi for that day. With wifi, I spend $0.

Only Prepaid user can enjoy the special data roaming rate of $0.30/mb while in Singapore. Your roaming charge in Singapore is not within the package, so you will be charged everytime you use... can be expensive if you use it often.

I also bought from 7-Eleven, but they did the registration for me. Activation took 14 hours.

Stated in umobile FAQ:

"If I purchase a top-up voucher from 7E in Malaysia and bring it along to Singapore, will I be able to top-up while on roaming in Singapore?
Yes, you can. You can top-up by choosing any of these two methods. *118# or send a SMS to 22128 to top up."


I am not sure about receiving calls with expired card when roaming in Singapore. But for Digi Prepaid, you can only 'receive' call but cannot make outgoing call if you account is expired (Digi phrase it as 'inactive' period within 90 days)

I also can't call out... but can receive

For prepaid, roaming in Singapore is automatic.
No need to do anything extra, just use as normal.

Can I ask whether the extra 15% top up with an IDD call made still valid? My account expires 16/3

I was told by customer service previously that if cancel voicemail, we will also not receive Miss Call Alert. That is why I still bear with the Voice Mail until today. Miss Call Alert is too important to forego.

Thanks. Within how long from top up we have to make the IDD call? Can top from 7-11?
