NEWS that SingTel will increase fixed lines charges come January has proven to be the last straw for some customers who plan to ditch the service, which is already waning in popularity.
Marketing manager Dolly Cheng, 36, is among those who plan to rely solely on their mobiles after SingTel said on Monday subscription charges for land lines would rise $10 a year.
She and her IT-professional husband, who get about five calls a week at their Bishan flat, have been considering cancelling the line for the past year.
