ADV: No eye see my phone bill lah!

Its been more than a year since I traveled out of Singapore. And recently I started traveling for work and leisure purposes and I'm flying to three countries within a month! Crazy lah! And because I terminated my autoroaming value-added service, my phone bill that's coming for this month is going to be high!

I'm not a big mobile phone chatting nor SMS-ing person. I use more on my data plan than my talktime and SMS. On average my mobile bill (without the mobb VAS) is around $30 only. Unlike during my poly days when phone bills can reach up to $100++ a month and I still don't feel the pinch. (Those where the days!) But now, when it hits slightly more than $40/month, I'll scream already lah! The older I grow, the more cheapo I get! LOL!

I cannot imagine my coming bill since I was on the phone very often when I was in Bangkok and also in KL. Than today while browsing molemole's past blog post, I remembered about hoiio! Why didn't I use that???

I would have saved more than 70% of the cost for calling back to Singapore!

Next week I'm heading to Indonesia for a short break with Abang. And I think I'm going to install hoiio in one of my phone just in case I need to activate the international calling feature for urgent and long call back to Singapore.

I did a quick calculation comparing the two service providers and here's what I discovered!



How is that possible?? I mean me reaching 100mins of talktime over 4 days! Of course I can't lah! I use 100mins for easier calculation mah! So there you see the cost saving measure of using hoiio.

Since molemole already has got a very detailed instructions on her blog, I'm going to direct you all over to her! (Linklove wor!) So please go to the following websites for more information about hoiio service. The Smarter Way to Hello!
