Hey everyone, i'm new to the forum. But it looks exciting so far. I don't have a personal question but i'm asking on behalf of my elder sister (who apparently have no time to even type this out:shyxxx:)

So anyhow, my she's thinking of getting a mobile line for her son, who's 7 this year. He's currently got a prepaid card but she's finding topping it up a hassel these days. Was wondering if any mummies out there have any experiences (either good or bad) to share?

if it's just to report their whereabout or very very light user, prepaid card is more than enough but they do chat on the phone with friends occasionally, try getting students plan as they have free incoming call. for mine, they will get their friends to call them instead:tlaugh:

Agreed, Prepaid card is good enuf.
Don't worry, now very convenient to top up the cards.
You can even use ATM machines.

Pardon me for asking, why would a child need a mobile phone at 7 yo???

But if it's really a must, then I think a pre-paid card is more than enof....

My gal uses prepaid HOT 100 from singtel. We pay $28 for the value of $72 local calls/sms ignoring the $28 for IDD calls/glabal sms. Although need to top up every 50 days from last top up date but unsued value can be brought over.
