StarHub and E-mail

[Dolph]

I just moved to Singapore and have set up a StarHub broadband internet connection. But it turns out that you don't actually get an e-mail account with that - argh! How do I get that? Is there some way I can get that with SingTel instead? I don't want to only use internet-based e-mail. Advice very much appreciated!

Starhub "sells" that service separately. Something like 22 bucks a year - called i-mail. See their website.

Cheers, DimWit Kid. What a rip-off! I sorted something else out.

yeah we got burned by starhub, it cost $66 for a year pffft, they say $33 but then charge you another $33 to set it up, total ripoff.

Dolph, what did you do? if you don;t mind my asking

Canuck, additional 33 to set up an email??? :p

oh yeah, we got a lovely bill in the mail saying we owe them $66.73, absolutely disgusting, boy do I feel burned

I mean $33 dollars to give us a password? I set it up, I should charge them
