They seem to be disappeared. In Square club and F1, the only single girls are PR, who basically want money to talk (ahaha, no way I would spend money to have someone simulating to be friendly) but nothing more than that.
Ahh...you are looking for party girls rather than FLs or PR ladies employed by the business entity to draw in the guys/group of guys to their premises.

As mentioned, nothing nor any situation is ever fixed in Batam. Today it could be this, tomorrow it can be another scenario.

Service level & its QC were never consistence in Batam, from my perspective.

I have one mifi and it works many hours without interruption before I need to recharge it.
Hehehe...the thing is my device were rarely turned off when i am in room, hence when i step out of room, battery were used up unknowingly.

I even have to throw some of these device/s due to bloated batteries too.

I don't see why to suffer that hassle.
I do what you said on those sim card for my mobile wifi device (aka Mifi).

But not for the indonesia sim card on my mobile phone.

This is where the problem lies, there arent really any fix instruction/s to go about trying to get these issue/s fixed.

Most of us (even the mobile shop assistant) were on trial and error, guess a bit here and there, learning from one another's experiences in order to come to certain conclusion.

Bear in mind, trial and error cost money.

After getting to know most parts of it, things can still keep changing.
