Using Local Direct Call (LDC)
We know that it is not only important for you to stay in touch^ with your travelling companions while in Singapore but also to do so at affordable rates. Instead of chalking up hefty IDD bills, StarHub's LDC lets you enjoy cheaper* rates while you make contact. Simply key #0 in place of the IDD prefix ("+" or 008) followed by the country code and the mobile phone number.

The benefits of LDC are not limited to foreign visitors. Your Singaporean friends^ can enjoy similar convenience and great savings when they contact you by following the dialling instructions above.

How to use LDC:

Step 1

Select StarHub as your mobile roaming network.

Go to “Settings” in your mobile phone menu. Select “Phone Settings”. Select “Network Settings” and choose “Manual”. Select “StarHub” or “SGP 05”.

Step 2 Key #0 in place of the IDD prefix ("+" or 008) followed by the country code and the mobile phone number of whom you wish to call.
For example, if the party that you wish to call is a Hong Konger travelling in Singapore (Hong Kong's Country Code is 852), and his mobile number is 98888888, you should dial #085298888888

^Applicable to users on StarHub's network only.
