Happy Sim Card In Singapore

[shyamal45]

Can anyone give me information whether HAPPY SIM CARD purchased from Thailand will be active at

Singapore for 4 days. After buying the SIM CARD from Thailand, I like to stay 3 days at Thailand

and then visit Singapore for 4 days. I like to know whether I can make International calls from Singapore

with that same SIM Card. IF yes, then how much do I have to pay for those International Roaming calls

Better solution is to buy new SIM card in Singapore.You can do it in money changing counters at airport there.

New card cost is - minimum 200B.You will get free(FREE!) IDD calls to many countries,including Thailand.And you will not have problems

with roaming calls - calling strange numbers and waiting for call-back.Sim cards are also available in 7/11 anytime,anyday anywhere.

What I have found in 7/11 Geylang shop on midnight?listen!listen!! - mobilebroadband 3G sets:special sim card plus USB dongle in three variaties:

- 2M,3.6M and 7.2M speeds;from company StarHub.2M is 100S$,7.2M is 150S$;they did not have sim cards alone, only bundles,but broadband sims are available in StarHub shops(12S$ only, but not at midnight).There is another company providing the same - M1.This is quite new development,may be 3 months old.

So,coming back to your problem:you have a choice of 3 mobile providers - SingTel,StarHub and M1.All three will give you free IDD calls.

Do you still want to roam with DTAC?

Thank You borovik. I will do that. I did it before, purchased M1 and used it. It was quite ok. Thanks again

Yes Happy works (register online and activate roaming)

Yes Happy is expensive roaming

Check SMS prices

You might be better with a local card if you are making or receiving a lot of calls

It is a cost / benefit / convenience analysis.

How much did you paid for M1 prepaid?

SIM cards cost between 8S$(200B) up to 50S$;the most popular are 15-25S$,valid - 180days without recharge.

Registration is must,done on spot by scanning terminal - passport is necessary.

Free IDD calls means - you pay for local air time only(2-4B/min.) and you have to dial not "001"not"+",but"019" or "018" etc.

StarHub introduced 3G prepaid SIMcard for mobile internet,in practice - 5S$/day of mobile surfing.

Singapore cards work well on roaming worldwide - good for sms-ing.

Thank You. I paid about 7S$ for M1 Prepaid about 3 years back. Yes, I have to show passport to activate,

which M1 people at Orchard Road did within minutes. Thank You
