Enjoy Singtel Newsstand with Data Waived

Singtel launches Singtel Newsstand, a subscription service where you can subscribe to your favorite newspapers or magazines with discount. Singtel post-paid customers will be able to enjoy the content without touching their own local mobile data.

In my opinion, unless you are already subscribing or reading these publications, it is not cheap to subscribe even with up to 20% discount. BTW, I wonder who has suggested the name of this service. Read the News Release for more details.
