What cost efficient mobile plan would you recommend for senior citizens?

My parents require talk time, caller id and do not use data when they are outside - only use wifi at home to watch vidoes on their basic smartphones. The usual mobile contracts are too expensive. Circles Flexi Plan sounds good but 30min talktime is too little for a month's usage and I don't know if there is any hidden cost since it is free. Currently, they are on my Singtel 3 under Mobileshare, S15 mth per pax. Do you have more cost efficient suggestions? TIA

Hi, you can consider either Zero1's 1GB to Unlimited plan at $9.90 per month or circles.Life's $0 Flexi plan at $0 per month.

For Zero1's 1GB to Unlimited plan, they offer 200 mins of talktime at $9.90 per month

For circles.Life's $0 Flexi plan, they offer only 30 mins of talktime but you can add 200 mins of talktime for just $10. It's a free plan with no hidden costs, assuming that you do not purchase any add-ons.

For me, I would recommend circles.Life since it has a mobile application where you can track your parents usage, bills etc. I feel that the customer support is better as compared to Zero1's too, based on reviews from fellow consumers.
