Pros and cons
GOMO by Singtel
Pros
- The entry plan starts at SGD 6 a month, and the terms run 1 month on rolling billing, so there is nothing long to serve out.
- Unlimited data sits at SGD 20 a month, which places it at 39 of 173 brands on that price.
- EU roaming is included across 210 countries, so a trip abroad does not need a separate roaming arrangement.
Cons
- Static IP is not offered on the broadband plans, and the Core plan asks you to bring your own router.
- GOMO sells as an mvno on the Singtel network, while GETESA and yesss! sell as network, so you deal with the reseller rather than the network itself.
- The broadband terms allow fees and charges to be amended at any time, and the upload figure on file is 7,767.5 to 7,859.68 Mbps.
Virgin Mobile Mexico
Pros
- Entry price of MXN 23 sits close to the site median for entry price of €23.19, so the opening outlay is not out of line with comparable prepaid plans.
- Sim only plans mean you pay for data alone, with no handset bundle added to the bill and no device to pay off.
- An eSIM is available, so a line can be set up without waiting for a card to arrive.
Cons
- Billing is prepaid only, so there is no monthly contract bill and no discounted longer term to set against a commitment.
- The service has no network of its own and rides on Telefonica Movistar, so coverage follows that host rather than the brand.
- Coverage is offered in Mexico, a single market, so the plan carries little value as a roaming option outside Mexico.
Who each suits
GOMO by Singtel
Who it suits
- People in Singapore who want a sim only line on rolling billing with no long tie-in.
- Travellers who want roaming across 210 countries rather than arranging cover before departure.
- Households that want the mobile line and fttp home internet from the same seller, with a setup fee of SGD 0 and a router on the Value Plan.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone who insists on dealing with the network itself: GETESA and yesss! sell as network.
- Readers who want a like-for-like seller comparison: Lonestar Cell MTN is a network too, so price from and host network do the deciding.
- People who need a static IP address, because static IP is not offered here. If that feature settles the choice, compare the network sellers GETESA and yesss! closely.
Virgin Mobile Mexico
Who it suits
- People in Mexico who want prepaid data bought by top-up rather than on a monthly contract
- Shoppers who would rather activate on an eSIM than wait for a physical SIM card
- Users who want 5G and hotspot sharing from a prepaid plan without a handset bundle
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone after a monthly contract bill, since billing here is prepaid only
- Travellers needing service away from home, as coverage is offered in MX only
- Shoppers who would rather buy from an operator running its own network, such as GETESA, than from a service hosted on Telefonica Movistar

Questions about each
GOMO by Singtel
What does GOMO by Singtel cost to start?+
The entry plan starts at SGD 6 a month, and the unlimited plan is SGD 20 a month. Both sit on rolling billing with a term of 1 month, and the reference plans carry no contract, so the rate you join at is the rate you keep paying while you stay on the line.
Do I have to sign a long contract?+
No. The mobile plans run on rolling billing with a term of 1 month, so there is no long tie-in to serve out. Data rollover is offered, which means data left unused in a billing cycle carries into the next instead of disappearing. The catch sits on the broadband side, where leaving early means paying the monthly fee for each remaining full month of the minimum period.
Virgin Mobile Mexico
How much does Virgin Mobile Mexico cost to get started?+
Entry price is MXN 23, and the billing model is prepaid, so a top-up is what gets paid rather than a monthly subscription. Against comparable prepaid plans, the site median for entry price is €23.19, which places the opening cost in a familiar range. Packages cover both small and large data allowances.
Do I have to sign a contract or buy a handset?+
No. Billing is prepaid, packages are sold as top-ups, and each plan runs for 1 month, so there is no long term to serve out and no device to pay off. Sim only plans are the norm here, which means the handset you already own and the number you already use stay as they are.
