M1 ditches 19 mobile plans for one base plan

SIM-only and handset bundles get one base plan each.

M1 is folding its 19 mobile plans and opting for one base plan each for SIM-only and handset bundles, it said in an announcement.

The SIM-only contract-free base plan starts from $25, and the handset base plan starts from a $30 contract. Both plans come with unlimited weekend data and offer data value bundle starting with 30GB and 12GB respectively at the base plan.

Customers can then build and personalise their own plans over the base plan by adding on more data, voice minutes, SMS, roaming pack and other value-added services depending on their expected usage and need. “The simplification offers customers greater flexibility and personalisation through a mobile plan that can be made-to-measure,” the company said.

M1 also introduced a new website which enables consumers to sign up for new mobile plans online and choose to have their SIM card and handset delivered to their doorstep at no additional cost.

“Since the recent acquisition of M1 by Keppel Corporation and SPH, the M1 team and shareholders have been working hard to crystallise our transformation strategy across all areas of our business, with the primary aim to deliver the best possible customer experience and simplification of the customer journey,” said M1 CEO Manjot Singh Mann.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
