Hi,
Next month, my wife and I will be moving to Singapore (from the US) for a 2 year work assignment. I currently have an iPhone 4S and my wife has an iPhone 4. We're thinking SingTel, and my wife will probably just get an iPhone 4S under contract when we get there. I, however, would like to be able to get an iPhone 5 (or whatever it's called) when it comes out, so I was hoping to avoid a contract. Assuming I can get my hands on an unlocked iPhone 4S, I was thinking of using SingTel's "3G Flexi Value SuperSIM" plan. On the SingTel website, it looks pretty similar to the "iFlexi Value" contract plan. However, there look to be some things that are listed under the iFlexi that aren't mentioned with the SuperSIM plan:
- data capped at $30/month for unlimited data usage
- Free Wireless@SG
- Value added services (caller ID, autoroam, voicemail, sms plus)
Does anyone know if these are really not included/available with the SuperSIM plan? I think I would miss the Wireless@SG access, caller ID and voicemail options. Also, are there any limitations with the SuperSIM plan with regards to corporate discounts? Any other things I would be missing out with the SuperSIM plan?
A few more generic questions:
- I see that there are specifc "Plans with Free Incoming Calls" - does that mean the other ones don't?
- Does Singtel have a 'family plan' similar to what we have with AT&T in the US?
- Looking at the "expat" plans, I don't really see an advantage with the iPhone plans - am I missing something?
- We'll also need to get internet and TV (no home phone) - are the bundled deals worth it?
Sorry for all the questions - I've tried going through the SingTel website and this forum, but haven't been able to figure this out. Thanks in advance for any guidance you can give,
-J
