I used to be in your shoes. I don't understand too. But I did some reading and googling.

What's so hard?

You haven't even make clear what's your main purpose of having the phone line. You never mention whether you want prepaid or you want postpaid.
How many mins you need? How much data you need etc etc.

You only said want to call m'sia unlimited. I told you sim only add on unlimited and IDD. Just google singtel sim only then you 10000% see what I'm recommending to you. Have you bothered to read? If not please stop it here.

Not worth helping someone that don't bother to even read anything.

Please don't have so much afflictions in your mind. Take care! Bye!

I think the solution to your problem, mr darrenboy, is to just come down to singapore one day, and go and ask all the telcos in person. they will answer ur questions, if they are patient enough to put up with you.

In the first month in SG, before i got my EP, all i did was use the tourist simcard for a month. During that time slowly research lor...

U seem overly anxious and nervous of your move. Relax and take a chill pill.

Sometimes I think Msians are even more kiasu than sgreans. lol, havent arrive yet but already thinking of which the best phone plans etc.

yup totally agree, really kiasu and need to spoon feed every single details !

i am still using singtel prepaid atm, nearly 2 year in singapore already.

chill guys, and happy new year.

anyone here working in emerson management power?

Hey folks, here's a story, seeking your opinion here.

Sounds trivia, but the story's about ermm...electricity usage.

I've been renting for a while with this family here at Tampines. For almost the past one year, I'm seldom at home.

Day time at work, OTs and outings in the evening, and I return to KL almost every two weeks consistently to see my family.

2 weeks back, I purchased a gaming laptop and as you might have guess, I've been hiding at home gaming away in the evenings and weekends...with some extended usage in throughout the midnight and the AM hours. But of course, I still go back every two weeks to see my family.

The landlord now is seeking compensation for the additional electricity that I'm using. Is this common practice?

I don't think that's common, how would he/she even calculate the minimal electricity used there?

When you rented the place was it supposed to be including all utilities?
If it is, you shouldn't be restricted to how much you are using (within reasonableness of course)

Hey Kim, thanks for the feedback. I'm discipline with the AC usage.

Now, is the erm...my gaming laptop honeymoon period hence the extended gaming use at night.

maybe this is their concern?

Not the first time hearing house owner that acts that way. Taking advantage.
U should challenge to get the bill to see the difference of kWh usage before and after u play game with ur gaming laptop.

Ha! Thanks folks for the quick response. Nah, probably I've set a high savings benchmark for them, cause for the most the year, I'm out from home except sleeping. Now that I'm domesticated, they see a spike of electricity usage.

Not really keen of confronting them, this is the last straw that I have to put up with their shenanigans. Time for me to move my lazy butt out.

You guys probably know a thing or two, there's this FB group where fellow tenants group together to rent an entire unit or something along the lines, do you guys have that?

Thanks for sharing ya!

No. They shudnt push it to u.

My room's available for rent if you're thinking of moving
No crazy landlord

Except AC, shouldn't have anything extra to charge to you leh...

My rental included AC but as far as I remember, for the past 1 year I only on it for like... Maybe 30-40 hours.

This is my second year. My first year here I use more often coz hotter (placebo? )

Anyway... This way I'm already using a lot less... If they come and jump I take the contract show them lo...


I believe the utilities part should be listed under your contract. Check the contract and see? I believe is only writing about AC usage and Washing Machine usage. The most is say... Don't keep the lights on when you're out that sort of thing.


Another way... You can try do the calculation for them for your gaming laptop. Gaming laptop I believe your adaptor max out 120W. Give 20% power loss, 150W. 1kWh = 6.67hours x 150Wh Take 1kWh PUB charge $0.3 (not sure about this rate but about there la... inclusive GST). It costs $0.3 for you to play your laptop for 6.67 hours. If you play 6 hours per day for 30 days a month, only $9...

How to charge? Even include having the lights on at night at most also $11-$12. How to charge arh?

Complex calculation, but sweet. Anyway, made my mind up. Time to make a move.
