Why are there charges of $0.15 for international sms to UK? (Android users)

For Android users, when you access to the Google Play Store and download paid applications via mobile data, Play Store will prompt out different payment methods for you to pay for the app.

If you select StarHub billing, a silent SMS will be sent out to the Google servers, the payment for the app will appear in your phone bill at the end of the month. In addition, the silent SMS that was sent is considered an international SMS. For all international SMSes originating from Singapore, redONE charges a $0.15/SMS sent. Roaming charges will apply if the SMS is not sent out from Singapore.

Why are there charges of $0.15 for international sms to UK? (iOS users)

If you are an Apple (iOS) user, these charges come from the activation of iMessage and FaceTime. Both services involve incurring a cost for sending an international SMS message. This SMS is sent in the background by your iPhone (to Apple’s servers in the UK) when setting up these services. For all international SMSes originating from Singapore, redONE charges a $0.15/SMS sent. Roaming charges will apply if the SMS is not sent out from Singapore.


Moreover, when a user tries to activate iMessage, a popup message will appear citing that the carrier may charge for messages used to activate iMessage.

From time to time, Apple may prompt out a message to reactivate the iMessage or Facetime service. Clicking OK will allow Apple to send another international SMS message to the UK servers again. Some situations where Apple may prompt out the reactivation message are when you swap SIM Cards, lose network connectivity, or enter flight mode for an extended period of time and reconnect. This is an Apple service, and to prevent these charges from happening in future, we advise that subscribers no activate the iMessage and Facetime functions.

What is Basic Internet and what is the speed for Basic Internet?

Basic Internet will kick in when your local data bundle is fully utilized, and your internet speed will be throttled down to 128kbps. This is to prevent bill shock for our subscribers. 128kbps is enough to send out basic messages. To gain access to high speed Internet again, all you have to do is purchase a data add-on via our 1App. Alternatively, when the bill cycle resets on the 1st of every month, subscribers will have access to high speed Internet from their bundle again.
