Hello...I'm about to work in SG for 3 months-ish and would appreciate some advice on the following:
1. Any recommended telco plan for calls, 3G data (mobile) and wifi broadband bundle? Or is it better to get a mobile phone plan and broadband separately?
2. Octupus card...is it worth to get this for only 3 months?

I've tried searching the net for these information but just want to ask you guys in case there's some 'insider' knowledge that only you can provide. brows.gif

Please redirect me if this is not the correct place to post. Thanks!! notworthy.gif

Nope, don't have corp plan so at own expense, am searching for a budget one.

Since you are here only short term, no point signing up for a postpaid contract. Just go with one of the prepaid cards like Starhub Green. Where are you staying while in SG? On such a short term thing I'm assuming your company is posting you here? Shouldn't the hotel/service apartment have wifi internet?

Starhub Green. Got it! We've got our accomodation already which has wifi but am still looking for broadband as the work site doesn't have internet for 'visitors'.

Thanks!!

Broadband will bonded you for two years, if you are stay in singapore for short term, it is not wise to do so.
