StarHub has gone a little wild with its new SIM Only plans, giving consumers what they need and want for the longest time.
The local telecommunication giant has unveiled its new contract-free SIM Only plans, offering up to 60GB of local data for a monthly fee of S$80.
Its lowest contract-free SIM Only plan starts at S$25 per month.
Other perks of the plans include free Caller Number Display and International Roaming.
All one-time administrative, activation and SIM card fees that usually work up to approximately S$200 over one-year will also be scrapped. Similarly, if consumers want to modify or add new value-added services, there will not be any one-time fees.
Mr Johan Buse, Chief of Consumer Business Group, StarHub said:
“We hate to admit it, but people do not rate telcos highly. This is a regrettable reality, and we are determined to earn back customers’ trust and be the telco that they deserve. The transformation of our mobile plans is just the start. Team StarHub is challenging the norms, and customers can look forward to seeing positive changes across our entire range of products and services. We will work harder than ever before for the right to take pole position in the hearts and minds of our customers.”
However, these plans do not come with StarHub’s unlimited weekend local data.
If consumers wish to enjoy the benefits of the unlimited weekend local data, they will have to top-up an additional S$6 per month.
Starting today, consumers can head down to either the StarHub Shops, online or use the StarHub app to sign up for the new plans.
Android users will be the first to enjoy this feature; the iOS app will be updated within the next two weeks.
According to StarHub, “the first 10,000 customers to sign up will get additional 10GB every month for a year. There are no surprise charges, as this bonus will end automatically. Customers who want to get a discounted phone can simply top up $25 per month. These customers will get the same 10GB bonus for the full 24-month term.”
