3. Alternatively, if you don't have a Singapore number and are too lazy to visit the customer service centre, you may try this if you have international roaming.
- Ensure you are roaming on the Singtel network
- Dial *186 and press call – your phone will make a call but it will disconnect almost immediately
- You will then receive a text message with your username and password - The username is usually your phone number @singtel e.g. +635425682@singtel
- Search for available WIFI on your mobile and connect to Wireless@SG
- Once connected, open your browser. You will be directed to a page to login.
- Enter the username and password in the text message. Hit enter and you’re online!
Note that the password is valid only for 24 hours. Just repeat the above process once it has expired and you are good to go. :)
