M1 has just announced a new SIM only Maxx plan priced at S$7.90 a month. There is a catch though, you have to port your phone number in or else if you’re a new customer, you’ll pay S$9.90 a month.
But it all boils down to what you get for your S$7.90 (or S$9.90). and it does look like you get some bang for your buck!
First off you get 199GB of local roaming data (M1 didn't tell us at what speeds although it is likely to be 4G), 500 minutes of local outgoing calls, 99 local SMS messages, and unlimited incoming calls. Next, like a lot of new mobile plans, M1 is including free 9GB of roaming data for Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and Bangladesh, as well as 1GB of data for other countries a month.
While the fine print states, “M1 Maxx will be offered at a discounted rate of S$7.90 for 12 billing cycles (i.e. months)”, M1 say that there is no lock-in period.
More information about this and other M1 Maxx plans are available here.
