Review of Singapore’s 4th telco TPG Trial network

6 Jan 2019

TPG begins it’s trial of it’s LTE network starting from Woodlands users. Pre registered users collected their SIM cards and are offered a 12 months trial. The selected users will be given 2 GB per day of data at 4G speeds and it will be throttled to 1 Mbps after the first 2 GB is consumed. The 4G speed will be reset after midnight. Effectively, the plan simply give users a 30 x 2GB or 60 GB of data per month with unlimited 1 Mbps connection throughout the day. It also include 20 call minutes to landlines and 20 SMS. There is unlimited calls to local mobile lines.

As TPG is a 4G network, voice calls will only be available in VoLTE mode. Newer phone models will support this feature.

  1. Some tips I can share for xiaomi user who are unable to use VoLTE even after dialing *#*#86583#*#* and even switching VoLTE on
    Go to APN setting and add this
    Name: ims
    APN: ims
    APN Type: ims
    do not change APN protocol
    It Works on my mum’s Redmi 4A when I test TPG SIM in her phone,got VOLTE Icon after setting it and calling another phone to test, the other phone ring.

      1. For the time being, if are interested, you can contact any friends that has applied 4 cards to lend one to you if they are willing.

    1. I think their server is overloaded. THey have temporarily closed applications.
      Perhaps you want to check http://www.tpgmobile.sg regularly and other FB pages for updates
      when they start accepting applications again.. It is really fastest fingers fast.

  5. Voice calls from other telcos to and from TPG doesn’t work. Only TPG <-> TPG works.
