Well I wouldn't recommend M1 either. Currently using the mobile broadband plan and the connectivity is very unstable. I heard people said it is due to the locations so I tried using it in Woodlands, Dover and everywhere. Not good eitherfumblyfumbler wrote:No it's not possible to get a refund. From my experience, we'll need to pay the "penalty"; i.e. balance of the contract in order to terminate the line.
I don't recommend getting mobile broadband due to the congestion in the mobile network for all operators. However, if you really need to get a mobile broadband plan, go for M1 or Singtel. Never Starhub.
Starhub has this habit of limiting download speeds. And I've observed in my connection that they'll throttle my speed EVERYDAY upon reaching around 900 to 1.1GB data downloaded.
Ain't that the truth. It's a well known trick for hotels and exhibition halls to block out external signal so you have to use their services and that can cost you anything from S$50 to S$500 for 1 day access if you require a high speed connection.ksl wrote:Infocomm and partners are responsible for the wireless set up. Suntec has probably been over looked and not enough complaints put in. It's kind of like the Bermuda triangle in Suntec, for signal blocking and Starhub don't appear to be in the package, cannot see their logo only 3 are showing. Singtel M1 and Icell. though i haven't read through the website, so i don't know. A 3G software application management system may have to be activated in the area.
Probably if people complained enough something might get done, it is an important area with the exhibition area, so it may also be a deliberate move not to improve the communictions inside to prevent free surfing. I know we have to purchase when exhibitions are on, has the free wirless is not available.
Punters must pay for it when the exhibitions are operating. Shows you the coverage on here if you type in Suntec it's almost on all low floors.
Woodlands is bad also for picking up signals.

same problems i experienced. m planning to go back to Singtel once the contract is up. Starhub is really slowwww compared to Singtel in my experience.ziczac wrote:I have been using this service for 3 months and found that the speed is getting slow, both upload and download speed, usually just have 10-30 kb/s and recently 5-10kb/s.
This is ridiculous as I m not using any donwload software but only use firefox to browse yahoo and it took me a minute to load everything of the page.
Do anyone have a situation like this? btw, i use it in serangoon central so it shud be no signal problem here...i think.....
If you are going to apply this service i would suggest not to do as I have signed a 2 years contract for that with a rubbish service like this.
