StarHub strikes out data roaming fees for travellers to Malaysia

Surf the net without extra costs.

StarHub today revealed a cross-border initiative that will remove data roaming costs for prepaid subscribers travelling to Malaysia.

Under the initiative, subscribers can now use their existing prepaid data bundle across the border with no additional fee for activation or subscription.

The service also does away with the need to manually select a partner network to enable roaming services.

“We believe our offering is relevant for the tens of thousands who travel between Singapore and Malaysia daily,” said Tian Ung Ping, Assistant Vice President of Mobile Prepaid Business, StarHub.

To enable data roaming, subscribers need to dial *123*5*2# to open their existing prepaid data bundle for overseas use.
