Singapore eSIM not working? Fixes for no data after landing

Checks to run in the arrivals hall.

Quick answer

If your Singapore eSIM has no data after landing, turn on Data Roaming for this eSIM. Then check the line is on and chosen for mobile data, turn airplane mode on and off once, and confirm the APN is mobile.three.com.hk.

What should I check first?

Most problems are a setting. Work through these in order.

  1. 1Turn off airplane mode.
  2. 2Make sure the Singapore line is switched on.
  3. 3Turn on Data Roaming for the Singapore line.
  4. 4Choose the Singapore line for mobile data (Cellular Data on iPhone).
  5. 5Turn airplane mode on for 10 seconds, then off.
  6. 6Restart the phone.

The line shows signal but no internet. What now?

Check Data Roaming again: on iPhone go to Settings, Cellular, the Singapore line; on Samsung go to Connections, then Mobile networks; on Pixel open the SIM under Network & internet, then SIMs.

Then check the APN. On iPhone it is under the Singapore line, then Cellular Data Network. On Android it is under Access Point Names. The APN should be mobile.three.com.hk. That string is the APN only.

On iPhone, also make sure Allow Cellular Data Switching is off, so the phone does not fall back to your home line.

The phone shows “No Service” on the Singapore line

Open the network settings for the Singapore line and turn on automatic network selection. This eSIM is 4G roaming. The same eSIM also works in Malaysia.

Data works, but I can’t make calls or send SMS

That is expected. The eSIM is data only, with no phone number, calls, or SMS. WhatsApp calls work over this data. Keep Data Roaming off on your home SIM. TikTok and most AI apps, such as ChatGPT, may not work on this eSIM.
