Cessation of MaxMobile Datapack


We're always reviewing our mobile broadband plans to provide you with better value and faster connections. And in doing so, we sometimes have to withdraw, suspend or change our services to serve you better.

Hence, we wish to inform you that the offering of free MaxMobile Datapack will be ceased progressively from 14 August 2017 till 30 September 2017. The affected plans are MaxMobile DP Mif Plus, MaxMobile DP MOL Plus and MaxMobile DataPack MOL UltPlus. Customers will no longer be able to access their StarHub Mobile Broadband service if they are subscribed to these plans.

To continue surfing on-the-go, you can upgrade to our new mobile plan with a bigger bundled data!
