*Addendum: Since this posting, some plans may have changed to make it even more attractive to customers so best check out their websites. I saw a very long queue at the M1 shop at Compasspoint this afternoon and not that much at the Starhub booth. I guess M1’s off to a good start.

M1, Starhub, Singtel
