Hello, may i ask those of you with experience using roaming pass with Digi,

- can the data be shared to other devices via hotspot?
- can stream astro go?

just got back from guangzhou yesterday and the digi roaming seems slow for me. it could be due to the private dns that i configured but it loads fast for few seconds then just lag there especially on IG video/reels

anyway, alipay works flawlessly for me although i have the option to use TNG but i prefer alipay due to the Didi travel in-app. the e-hailing app in TNG is abit cacat. the cars just stuck on the map for very long time like frozen then the driver can't recognize the apps/last 4 digit of mobile number for verification,etc...


i cant read chinese word so the translate button in alipay does help. i used both wechat and alipay to scan for menu and ordering without issue and most of payment were done at the counter after finished eating

i quite surprise that many stores guangzhou still willing to accept cash payment compare to other cities
