Starhub is unlimited, Singtel has got 50GB cap.
I just got myself a Starhub 2Mbps Down 512Kbps Up. 2 years contract, free modem, and 30% discount on subscription fees. Currently paying S$27.10/mo.
Installation is easy, no need CD coz they store the driver inside the USB dongle. I can get a full 2Mbps download on bt if the seeds are available.
No recommended for playing games coz latency is too high.

singtel's BBOM is 1MBps, 50GB/month cap for SGD 14+ 12 months contract.
so basically u pay half to get half the speed, half the contract duration and the 50GB cap. so it is just a matter of choice imo wink.gif

p/s : forgot to add. free modem and requires 1-3 working days for activation from purchase date.

It's not really "up for grabs". It costs minimum S$1400 to a maximum of nearly S$4K over a 2 year contract. That's a hell of a lot to pay for any phone, considering basic mobile service is only S$250 a year (minimum incremental cost due to hardware S$900). It'll be cheaper when Starhub and M1 start selling it in Q4 this year, and when Samsung launches the Innov8.

No if you read their ads, it costs only $500-$800 for a 2 yr plan (depending on the plan u choose) and if u register their most expensive plan (I think is $200 monthly), the iPhone is free...

That's only the cost of the handset. You need to include the a large part of the cost of the 2 year contract because the minimum iPhone plan is almost double a normal basic mobile plan. You're essentially paying more fees every month for the privilege of owning a iPhone.

Guys & Gals,

Can recommend me some worthy IDD cards to call back to Malaysia? If cheap, i would be calling home for around 1 hour on alternative day.

Currently, i using Singtel Hi!Card and the Free 019 IDD Call but the thing is I don't really get what it means. It stated that 8cents/min (wk rate) but it seems like it is deducting my global-call/SMS. Shouldn't it be deducting my local-call/sms which is accumulating to a very a lot.

Note that I purchase $128 top-up cards.

There's Tiger Airways and Jetstar Asia also. All 3 budget airlines have prices from S$9.99 to almost S$200 - depending entirely on when you make your booking. This doesn't include taxes and surcharges. All 3 also have promotions all the time. So, at the end of the day, there's no "cheapest". It's a matter of how early you can confirm and pay for your booking.

You also have MAS and SIA, who occasionally have good fares, depending on promotion.

You find most of their promotions, regardless of which provider, are all over teh Straits Times especially on Saturday. Othere days too, but Saturday has the most. As for the website, the offer there isn't as attractive as the one in the press

cheapest are usually Air Asia and JapanAirLines-JAL.

Air Asia ranges from SGD120-280. usually if u book 3 weeks in advance during normal period will be about SGD 180. JAL is usually about SGD 217. Bad thing about JAL is you need 3 days advance booking. Good thing is it lands at KLIA.

I felt jetstar is a rip off. Unless you travel without checkin luggage you should take JetStar. If not forget about it.
