Re: Batam Info / Interest / Help Thread

Thank you very much for your very informative response.
I use Grab in Batam and KL. I did not save my credit card for cashless payment as I do with Uber, but I can do it next time.
I understand that the same Grab app will work also in Singapore. I read that Uber has ceased all operations in SEA, passing all operations to Grab.

However, the problem is that there is free wifi inside Harbour Front and Vivo City (thank you Rosfield too!), but I am not sure right outside of that, where I am supposed to wait for the car.

I hope I will not be in the emergency to rush to Changi. MRT is always the most reliable mean: it takes a bit more than 1 hour, but certainly no more than that.

HF has a free wifi service. So can scan for it and register, to use ride app.

If u link the app transport payment to a multi-currency e-wallet, your ride also becomes cashless at very good exchange rates.

If the app operates also in batam (eg. Grab), this cashless convenience also in batam (and other places u travel to).
