Closure of 2G Voice
and Data Services
Closure of 2G network from April 2017
From 1 April 2017, all of Singapore’s mobile operators (including StarHub) will no longer provide 2G mobile services. If you’re on a 2G-only device, you will no longer be able to use voice, SMS and data services.
Closing the 2G network will free up the wireless spectrum, giving us more bandwidth to provide you with better 3G/4G services and connectivity island-wide. Plus, you’ll get to enjoy a much better mobile experience, from smoother streaming of your favourite videos on the go, to better call clarity.
