Someone had mentioned , for spam call number will be shown as ±65xxxxxxxx. Proper call would be showing only 8 digit number. Not sure how true though
During this period, I'm taking every call which comes in including the countless \"MOH,\" \"DBS\" and \"FedEx/DHL\" ones

FYI, the phonecall will be using the school lan line so it will start with 6XXX XXXX.
Thanks Mr Clumsy and Zac's Mum. I shall keep myself contactable. I tend to reject calls from unfamiliar numbers cos they are usually spam calls.
Had a call from ACSI. Best of luck everyone! -
Congratulations to all who have received the good news today…
Continue waiting, refresh, refresh, refresh inbox…. -

Do note that there are some legit +65 calls. I will just ignore unless I am expecting overseas calls.

In response, then-Minister for Communications and Information S Iswaran said in a written reply that IMDA had considered this, but found it \"unfeasible\" due to legitimate international incoming calls that carry the +65 prefix.
\"Such examples include Singapore-based callers who travel overseas and call Singapore using mobile roaming services, as well as overseas call centres of local businesses who hold local numbers for their hotlines,\" he wrote.\" -

Yes... there are cases when +65 numbers are legitimate. Just that many spam numbers use ordinary phone numbers too. To handle the problem of spam, I just pick up all calls without saying anything, until the other party speaks. If it is a spammer, I just hang up and then block/report the number as spam.

I've just started to receive some funny SMS saying there was some problem with my income tax payment and then have a bit.ly/... URL for me to click on. That was darn cunning

I read that as long as you answer the spam call, the spammer’s database will note that your is a valid number and they will continue to channel spam calls to you. But never mind, for the sake of DSA, a few spam calls are worth it. But, where are the girls’ schools?? No news yet (I think).

Was about to ask where are the girls schools too. Haha.

Congrats to all with COs/WLs! -
Congratulations to all who received CO/WL offers ! Would appreciate if anyone could share if your DS’s ACSI CO (via non academic domains) is for IP or O Level track ? DSA via academic domains I assumed would be for IP track.
