Proximus
Proximus suits people who want a Belgian network run on no commitment terms, with included EU roaming and 5G on every plan. Entry at €14.99 is higher than the market median of €9.30, so the extras carry the case.
Singtel

Cons
- Entry at €14.99 is above the €9.30 median, and rank 215 of 258 on price from.
- The unlimited option at €34.99 ranks 134 of 173, higher than the €23.19 median.

- 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.
