A netizen claims Starhub is tricking its consumers to pay more for mobile plans by ceasing existing 4G plans and getting them to pay for new ones. Do you feel the same?

Do you think high bank charges are indeed obstacles to going cashless in Singapore? Now that the PM is encouraging us to do so, do we have to pay more again if the banks want to continue earning high margins? Can the MAS do something about this?

When my wife and i purchased our wallpaper from them earlier this year at marina square branch, we dealt with one of the sales man and we purchased two rolls of wallpaper to be install at our new bto flat. We paid 50% of the invoice to allow upcoming works to proceed and both parties have agreed on paying balance 50% upon completion on the same day. Now they insist us on paying 100% before they start work. Sales man was explaining how company has the rights to protect themselves, when you buy things from mall all pay upfront full. I told him we can pay upfront full for any and receive it immediate. Now they will only start work once we make full payment, or rather, do only 1 roll as we have paid for 50%. They did not honour from their initial dealings.
