| | | mobile and broadband service provider
Hi all,
Just want some feedback on which is the best mobile and broadband internet service provider in HK as I just can't decide which to go to?
Thanks! | |

| | | Best or most popular?
A long and arduous argument has ensued on these subjects many times!
For mobile phone: quality has to go to CSL sold through One to Free and 1010 outlets. Most popular is the 3 service and then New World. Not cos of quality, but because of cost!
For broadband: Personal experience says HGC VDSL service. Netvigator ADSL is by far the largest provider though.
Ultimately this is HK. The comms services are by far some of the best in the world. So take your pick, I'm sure what you get here will be far superior to pretty much anythimg you can get elsewhere, and shite loads cheaper! | |

For an average mobile phone user, who much would you be paying for bills? And what about broadband? For 3500khp, unlimited? Thanks | |

| | | I noticed that SMS service is usually not included under the basic mobile plan or the no. of SMS included is very limited - you have to pay for SMS service seperately in order to get more SMS.
Unlike in Singapore, usually about 300 to 500 SMS are included free under the basic mobile plan.
Is SMS common amongst Hongkongers?

| | | Everyone says that CSL has the best network, but what is the difference between their 1010 service and One2Free? There's quite a difference in pricing. I understand that New World Mobility is also part of CSL. I had one of their prepaid SIM cards before and the network seemed quite poor, so am a bit concerned. | | Tools | Search | | | | | Rate This Thread | | | All times are GMT +8.
