Singapore’s 4th telco is set to launch later this year,
the Australian telecommunications company TPG Telecom announced
earlier yesterday.
TPG Telecom is one of the largest internet, data and
voice networks in Australia serving over 1.8 million broadband
subscribers. After winning the bid to become Singapore’s newest
telco a couple years back, the company is finally launching their
services here.

As part of the launch and a bid to attract new
customers, TPG will be offering free two-year mobile
data plans to senior citizens aged 65 and above. The free
plan will include a SIM card, 3GB worth of monthly
data and unlimited calls to local mobile phone
numbers.
Did you say FREE!?
TPG, however, did not reveal specific dates to the
launch except for stating the second half of the year.
