When you are on your business travel, you should be contacted by your relations. Of course, hotel is the main place that can be contacted, but when you move from one meeting to another in different places you would be difficult contacted.
When you are using a mobile phone abroad you have two options. First, you can use your SIM card if your service provider has roaming service and you activate the service. Another option is buy local services by buying a local number and you will pay the local costs.
So the easiest and cheapest option is buy a local number to replace your old SIM card. By doing this, your relations who want call you enough to call your local number and you do not have to pay anything for it. And if you called, you will pay the local price, so there is no loss.
There are many SIM card service providers in Singapore that offer you with the price variations of different services, so you can consider it to decide which one is the better for you. The largest service provider is SingTel and M1, and so on.
As already mentioned, both are almost the same services and SIM card number you have will be valid up to six months. It’s nice because it means when you return to Singapore the number can still be used and you can share on your contacts with belief that this number will not change.
All you need do is add credit card at least once every six months and from the date you add credit, SIM card and your number will be valid for up to six months in the future. If you add a toll on the fifth month and the card number will be valid for six months.
