I ditched Singtel many years ago cos i tot they were getting from bad to...err...more bad. hard to get thru..their CS was not taking my concerns seriously..can even hear them sniggering over the phone..when i told them i had connection problems..to cut a long story short..i tried Starhub..so far...no problems..4 years & counting...bottomline here is..quite simple..if the ISP can't even provide a decent service..why even bother.

Sniggering?! That's really bad customer service. I won't be considering Singtel for my new home..

i took up my fibre with M1, if you have 3 contracts with them, you will be able to get 25% discount (if i didnt rmb wrongly). i did have a phone line connected with the ONT device, tried calling a couple of time and the quality of the line is good, just like a normal land line. I'm a light user like u, some email, some k-drama, no problem with the speed and with the 1g mobile data, m1 provide the best value for money package.

when i sign up, they do provide 1yr free subscription to their mibox, but there is a catch for this. u cant cancel the subscription after 1yr. so u will start paying $8plus per month for it for another year. have a look if the programs are something you will be interested in.

Thanks mummychua for highlighting about the mibox service I googled about it and it's really basic, doubt we will watch them. But after comparing, m1 is really most value for money.

Read on forums about their 100mbps for $29.90 promo previously. Hopefully they have that at the upcoming Comex. If they have that, even with the extra $8+ per mth, it should be still worth it compared to the other providers.

Hi Jiawen,

Went to Jason yesterday to get quotes for our resale unit.. N i mentioned this to him.. he was jokingly asking tat if u still niam him about the thickness till tdy.. he is a funny man.. Hope the 2cm thickness is wrking fine for u..

Haha! Maybe if we didn't like the 2cm top I could still be niam-ing.. But we are happy with it so far, so no complains

Hope he is able to give you a good quote

Hi there, sorry for the late reply! Am travelling at the moment so don't have much access to the Internet.

My tb loots have just reached my home yesterday, and I will be back to unwrap my "presents" next week. Will update about the packaging and quality of the sofa bed once I've settled and sorted out the stuff!

Haha ya, can't wait! How r you in your new home so far?

I think shopping on taobao and tmall + all the liaising on aliwangwang with the sellers and QQ with my agent definitely up-ed my chinese level a lot.

Win-win! Cheap stuff + brush up my chinese at the same time

But buying from SG has its pros as well. No lemon goods. I'm now crossing fingers my stuff come safe and sound!

Hi Jiawen,

May I know which agent did you choose for Taobao purchases?

Happy Updates

Have been back in SG since Monday and have accomplished the following since then!

- Unpacked all TB loots

- Assembled dining table and chair

- Assembled table and floor lamps

- Delivery of divan by Fortytwo.sg

- Delivery of coffee table by Fortytwo.sg

- Delivery of bed by Sealy

- Delivery of sofa by Star Living Furniture

Feeling pretty accomplished thus far

Still loads to be done though. Have been sweeping and wiping for dunno how many times but the floor is still really dusty Must continue to jiayou to make it live in condition soon!

Shifting to a totally new home is exhausting. I salute those who are moving their old home entirely to the new one. Simply cannot imagine how tiring that can be!

Will share the pics of the progress when I have more time
