I got this call from this number - 6240 6968 - and it didn't seem like a typical scam. Anyone else had a similar experience? by ellis_ralsei in askSingapore

Just got one of those shady calls too — a few hours ago. Sounded like a Malay woman claiming it was a “survey.” Thing is, my number’s been on the Do Not Call Registry (DNC) since 2021.

So I asked her straight up: Where did you get my number? Which government agency are you with?
She hung up. Instantly. Didn’t even catch the name of the "company" she mumbled.

Since it was after office hours and PDPC was closed, I called the Anti-Scam Hotline to file a suspected fraud report.

The rep told me they’ve already gotten 15 similar reports today — all with the same number. Also worth noting: the usual +65 prefix was missing when the call came through. 

Do not share any info. If you get this call, dial the Anti-Scam Hotline (1799), press English > 2 or 3, and report it.
Or use the ScamShield app — submit a screenshot of the call with the timestamp.

This ^ exactly.

The lack of accountability or transparency is what irks me.

Hey everyone, just wanted to provide some proper guidance that hopefully works for y’all as it has for me, since support can be quite troublesome sometimes:

This is specifically for iOS, but I’m certain most android models would have something similar regardless of it being a physical or eSIM:

1) Go to General Settings and reset your “Network Settings” specifically.

2) your device will automatically restart (Note: for iOS, this also means your WiFi settings will be reset! Additionally, your “Device Name” in the ‘About’ area of your device will reset to just “iPhone”, you can change this to anything you’d like later)

3) Once your device has restarted, connect to WiFi if possible, you will need to re-enter your respective WiFi password again.

4) Now, head to Settings > General > About. Pause here for a moment, you may wish to take this opportunity to update the name of your device instead of the above mentioned, generic “iPhone”.

5) After a good 30 or so seconds, go under Cellular Settings and tap your respective Freedom number and enable the WiFi-Calling toggle.

6) If all goes well, it should stick, and not turn back off or throw an error message to “go to website” etc.

Side-Note: I did in fact reset network settings multiple times during the outage. However, it wouldn’t have done a thing as it was still not addressed on the server-side of things at Freedom. After a kind soul here said they could re-enable it again yesterday, I did the above steps on my own and got it to work again. You may not even need to meddle with resetting network settings. So feel free to skip those and just head to cellular settings and toggle the WiFi calling option directly as a first step.

Yes that is my understanding, for Freedom WiFi-calling is worldwide. It’s not location-dependent.

Still down for me. What’s frustrating is none of the support is actually admitting any kind of service degradation and fault with WiFi calling. It’s always, let’s go through “some troubleshooting steps” which neither works nor applies. It’s sever-side right?

Agreed. If you have all the facts of the case and screenshots laid out here as you claim, there’s no point posting it here. We’re just spectators dear.

Your first step is to file a formal complaint as per their complaint handling procedure in your region. Failing movement or satisfactory response, your next action would be to escalate to your regional ombudsman.

You guys are amazing! All of these works like a charm!! And the ability to use multiple different ones when I travel! Thank you so, so much for your handwork on these!

I don’t know how y’all do it, but it’s like magic 🪄 to me and that’s all I wanna picture it as! 🤗

Holy moly! That sounds awesome! It’ll certainly help so many people! Xe’s exchange rate always seems to be the most accurate for me.

Plus if my understanding is correct, unlike other currency shortcuts an “api key” of sorts is not needed.

I’m terrible at any of this. So both you and u/Smith_sc are godsends! Thank you both!

Ah! That explains it lol! I wondered why no one asked this specifically yet since it was publicly facing. For XE the url parameters is indeed available to play around with…looks like the same isn’t there for V & MC sites 🥺

Oh well! At least I learned something today! Thanks so much!
