Our verdict on each
Kyivstar
Kyivstar suits anyone in Ukraine who wants a network's own SIM only deal with a short contract and the option of an unlimited eSIM plan. Entry pricing starts at UAH 220, and the trust side rests on a long operating history plus support you can reach several ways.
Singtel
Singtel sells mobile and fibre from one network, and the entry price of SGD 29.90 sits well below the resellers listed here. Sim only plans, eSIM and 5G come as standard, but the step to SGD 89.90 once the contract term ends is what to watch.

Pros and cons
Kyivstar
Pros
- Kyivstar sells as a network (network), so the SIM only deal comes straight from the operator rather than a reseller.
- Contract length is 1 month, a short commitment next to a long fixed contract.
- An unlimited option exists in SuperGig Light eSIM, prepaid at UAH 400 for anyone tired of counting data.
Cons
- European roaming runs on fair use terms, so frequent travel is not covered outright.
- Plans run in UA only, so readers based in another market would be looking at the wrong operator.
- Billing is limited to contract and prepaid, with no rolling monthly option for people who like to cancel freely.
Singtel
Pros
- Billing runs on contract, rolling and prepaid, so contract, rolling and prepaid structures all sit under one provider.
- Sim only plans, eSIM and 5G come together, and roaming reaches 259 countries for frequent travellers.
- Singtel is the network rather than a reseller, so its fttp fibre and its mobile service come from the same operator.
Cons
- The monthly figure steps from SGD 29.90 to SGD 89.90 once the contract period ends, so the entry price flatters the long-term cost.
- Billing on contract, rolling and prepaid includes a contract option that ties the line for 1 month, and the reference broadband plans sit on a long fixed term.
- Support runs on chat and phone only, with no email channel among the ones listed.
Who each suits
Kyivstar
Who it suits
- People living in UA who want the network's own SIM only line with eSIM support.
- Buyers happy to cap their data and pay less, since entry pricing starts at UAH 220 on a contract plan.
- Customers who like several routes to help, offered through chat, phone and help centre.
Who should look elsewhere
- yesss!, if you want a rolling billing option, since yesss! lists contract, rolling and prepaid while Kyivstar bills on contract and prepaid terms.
- Lonestar Cell MTN, if the entry figure decides it, since its entry price is $0.20 against Kyivstar's UAH 220.
- GETESA, if you want a second prepaid and contract pair to weigh, since GETESA lists prepaid and contract while Kyivstar serves UA only.
Singtel
Who it suits
- Households in Singapore that want mobile and fibre from the same operator, with 5G and eSIM on the mobile side.
- Buyers who want to keep commitments short, with mobile plan terms of 1 month and a free setup fee on fibre.
- Travellers who need roaming reach of 259 countries while keeping a home tariff active.
Who should look elsewhere
- getesa, whose billing runs on prepaid and contract, for readers who want prepaid or contract only and no interest in Singtel's rolling option.
- Lonestar Cell MTN, whose billing runs on contract and prepaid, if you would rather settle on a fixed term than move from SGD 29.90 to SGD 89.90 at renewal.
- yesss!, whose plan terms run 1 and 12, if you want a longer commitment than the 1-month term on Singtel's mobile plans.

Questions about each
Kyivstar
What does the entry plan cost?+
The entry plan is VSE RAZOM Comfort at UAH 220, sold on a contract basis. The range also lists VSE RAZOM Legkyi Contract as a larger contract plan. Because Kyivstar is a network seller rather than a reseller, these are the operator's own tariffs, so the figure quoted is the network's own.
Is there a plan with unlimited data?+
Yes. SuperGig Light eSIM is a prepaid plan priced at UAH 400 with unlimited data, and it is the only unlimited option listed. The other two plans, VSE RAZOM Comfort and VSE RAZOM Legkyi Contract, come with a data allowance instead, which is where the lower UAH 220 entry point sits.
Singtel
What does Singtel cost to get started with?+
The entry figure is SGD 29.90 for the fibre plans, with a free setup fee and FREE TP-Link WiFi 7 Tri-band Router HB810 included included. Once the contract period ends, the monthly figure becomes SGD 89.90, so the headline price only holds for the initial term.
Can I take a Singtel plan without a new phone?+
Yes. Sim only plans are offered, so you can use a handset you already own or a tablet, and mobile plan terms run 1 month. The same tariffs carry 5G, and an eSIM is available if you would rather not wait for a card to arrive.
