Re: Batam Info / Interest / Help Thread

This reminds me of the China's 广场舞 (when i was in GZ & GX) aka group of aunties and children dancing at the Square. Didn't know Batam also fashion this,hehehe...its good exercise tho.


No,i didn't join them,hehehe...above picture were just to allow me to get a better feel of a situation.

Lunch was at Bento Tei Japanese restaurant,and I don't know why. This time round it seems to be more expensive compared to my last time there on April. Is it becos the restaurant notice all 3 of us were all Singaporean men? Hehehe...I doubt so.


My scanner couldn't catch a clear image of the receipt from Bento Tei,but its 272844 rupiah. This is just for my later reference. Its also this day that I learned that Telkomsel points can actually use to redeem 20% to 30% off the restaurant bill with a certain redeem code.

Come to think of it,i think I also need to record down the Telkomsel promo for phone calls from Batam via Singapore and vice versa (even tho the promo is only up to Dec 2017).

Basically there are few promos packages for myself who already have a Indonesia Telkomsel sim card.

1. The Talk Mania package which give its user 100 mins talk time for 7 days from Singapore/Malaysia to Indonesia at 50k rupiah.

2. And there is other 2 packages for internet and SMS access in Singapore/Malaysia with the Telkomsel sim card :


And there is how to activate it? Hehehe...read below :


I am too lazy to type everything all out,so I just cut and paste the message from the telkomsel website here.

Oh,one more thing to add, that is even when I am in Singapore,i can also activate the packages using the SSD code of *266# and there wont be any extra charges. Just make sure I have enough money in my sim card.

To check my sim card value anytime w/o charge,i dial *888#.

Every 5k rupiah top up in Batam,i get one telkomsel point. And these points can be use to redeem vouchers, eg Restaurant,Shops,malls discount, free movie tickets etc etc...also, if I have local Batam friends,and if I ask them to help me top up my sim card via their ATM card,there will not be any of those 2k rupiah administration charges or commissions (I saved 2k rupiah per top).

...continue to page 3...
