Singtel Offer Upgrade My iPhone 3G plans for Free!

Yesterday night, I had a revelation about switching my telco from Singtel to M1 and wrote an email to Singtel about my intentions.

I wrote about how the new telco plans are so much cheaper and the potential savings I can get if I ever switch over and get a new iPhone 3Gs Plus higher data usage of 10GB vs my 512MB limit.

This morning I get an SMS from my telco Singtel as shown below.

I was like, OMG Singtel response really quick! It’s like they had set up a war room to reply all inquiries and emails with immediate counter offer!

Well, I am not sure if you have the same SMS on your iPhone 3G but this means I do not need to terminate my existing plans on my iPhone 3G that potentially cost me SGD$856 early termination fees quoted from Singtel website.

For new customers who terminate within the three month minimum subscription period, three months’ list price on the respective price plans plus an $856 equipment penalty will still apply.

For terminations after the minimum three months subscription period, the $856 equipment penalty will apply. For existing customers who terminate at anytime within the contract period, the $856 equipment penalty will apply.

However that means I won’t be able to upgrade my iPhone 3G to a more advanced iPhone 3Gs with video recording capabilities & faster processors to run bigger applications.

Now, it’s a tough decision time…maybe I need to ask more questions about possibility of upgrading my iPhone 3G to 3Gs hardware TOGETHER with the FREE iPhone Plan upgrade!

Of course by paying for a new hardware minus the cost of the old iPhone 3G trade in.

Am I asking for too much?
