Free Overseas Data Roaming on Starhub SIM Cards

Not sure if this should be a deal because this isn't exactly available in Australia.

Singaporean telco StarHub offers two prepaid SIM cards which benefit from its ‘Happy Roaming’ package, where you can use the plan's initial data allowance of between 2GB and 5GB for free overseas roaming.

Here are the countries and networks covered by this deal:

  • Australia (Telstra, Vodafone)
  • New Zealand (2Degrees, TNZ)
  • China (China Mobile)
  • Philippines (Smart)
  • Hong Kong (Three)
  • South Korea (SK Telecom, Olleh KT)
  • Indonesia (XL Axiata, Three, Indosat)
  • Taiwan (FarEasTone, Chunghwa Telecom)
  • Japan (NTT DoCoMo, KDDI)
  • Thailand (TrueMove, DTAC)
  • Macau (CTM Macau)
  • UK (Three)
  • Malaysia (All networks)
  • USA (AT&T, T-Mobile)

So if you're travelling to these countries through Singapore, or meeting up with friends from Singapore, this is perfect for a holiday.

  • Thanks! Three UK also does this, with free roaming in 71 countries: http://www.three.co.uk/go-roam
    One complication with it was that online top-ups required a UK credit/debit card, so you need to buy a top-up in person from a supermarket/newsagent.

  • Post on CheapCheapLah too?

  • why not just buy a sim card in the country you're visiting?

    • If you are visiting multiple countries tries that are covered in the same trip then this is good. Or, as I did, perfect for China. Inexpensive and easy. Just have to remember to recharge every 3 months to keep it active.
