micro sim prepaid in hong kong
 

has anybody been back recently? I'll be heading to hk in december for the first time and want to pick up a prepaid sim for iphone 4. Are they as common now as the regular sim or should I just get a regular one and have someone clip it?

regardless, where's a good place to get one under 200 HKD with plenty data

I haven't seen it specifically listed, but what you could do is get a regular one and have it cut at a store in Sin Tat

Best deals on prepaid 3G data are at Three.

$2 per MB with a daily cap of $28 and a monthly cap of $338. So if you're staying a month, unlimited data is $338.

thanks skinny, it seems three beats out all the competitors

with Skinny on this. Thats what i used when i was there last month.

i see the tutoring idols of HK
bwahah

they're on like every bus and shit.......

My favourite:

Really? Ken Sir is the one that gets me...seriously....Ken Sir.....what is he, a cop? lol

Yes, but a dude named Frenda! With a ponytail! And a porn 'stache! And a soul patch! And a goatee!

You can't beat that in terms of pure douchebagotry.

who care if he looks like a fag or not.
at least he makes millions of dollar a year just to scam hongers' tutoring money

Well walking down the street, looking at hilarious pictures of guys named Frenda, I think it's more apt to say "who cares if he makes millions per year scamming hongers, he looks like a fag and is named Frenda".

Because I for one don't give a shit how much money someone makes.

at hk right now, using pccw prepaid sim.
so far it's okay

honestly, i think all of the providers in HK are pretty good, unlike the crap we get here in NA. Everything from overseas calling to data is cheap.

their names get worst and worst
bwahahah

the almost original tutoring idol master..

I cut it myself with just a pair of scissors and a knife...youtube it it's really easy.

or spend 60 bux HK and buy the punch....lol....and then sell it again on the street...

has anybody tried tethering with prepaid sim cards?

i have, but honestly, I was always near a free wifi spot anyway so i only did it when i was really desperate and needed it....and like, REALLY desperate...

$198 prepaid micro-sim

old-ish thread

how was the service for the iphone? data worked fine?
i'm hoping that an unlock will come out for iphone 4 on new baseband by the time i go to HK next month

anyone know anything about using blackberry on prepaid as well? if i can't unlock the iphone, i'll bring a blackberry instead

any insight would be greatly appreciated!

Does china mobile offer data + local + international calling?

I always used China Mobile because it's only $0.25 HKD per minute for local calls and NA

Going there in May

yeah but the data is Edge, not 3G i think.

yup China Mobile/Peoples is 2G only.
