Woman charged $2,700 after losing SIM card

SINGAPORE - A Singaporean woman did not realise she had lost her mobile SIM card overseas, until she received her bill for the month.

 

She got a shock when she found out the bill came up to $2,692.40.

 

A large portion of the bill were due to roaming charges incurred from calls made in Malaysia.

 

In an email to citizen journalism website Stomp, she cautioned others against losing their SIM cards, especially overseas.

 

"For those who have post-paid SIM cards registered in Singapore, when you travel overseas, take care of your SIM card.

 

"You might face the same consequences I did if you lose your SIM card."

 

She added that local telcos should have a usage cap for post-paid SIM cards.

 

"In Malaysia, if the usage of a registered phone line exceeds its deposit, it will auto-bar.

 

"No calls will be allowed then.

 

"For Singapore, however, the number would remain active if I did not call in to terminate it temporarily."
