BRING IT ON!!! Wahahaha…
13 months contract only $91 nia, almost on par with my previous ONE MONTH bill with StarHub!

All thanks to TPG for bringing down the cost 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Your previous 1 month bill is about $91?? Ok means you rich… then you should just top up eight for 2 years lah, only 2 months bill mah…

i was previously with Giga on the $18 plan which was overkill for me since I talk less than 10 mins a month and use only about 35GB a month, so I switched to eight because it’s much cheaper for about the same entitlements as Giga’s $15 plan

Guys, need a bit of advice. I'm currently on Zero1 $7(.07) plan. My bill cycle seems to start on 1st? as my latest invoice states billing period was 1st July to 31st July.

How does porting out work if I plan to switch to Eight in terms of current bill cycle? Should I wait until end of the month to port or will my Zero1 bill be pro-rated based on when I port out?

Any help is greatly appreciated. TIA.

Just drop them an e-mail with the necessary info. I had the same issue yesterday and was found to be resolved at around 5pm.

And yes, they do reply my e-mail, at around 6 plus.

What won me over is 8’s ability to answer calls and best of all, the roaming calls is deduct directly from the free IDD mins, no extra money / top-up needed. No brainer lah. It is liberating

unlikely zero1 will pay you back pro rated.

you can start applying eight and port 1 week before end of the month, or 10 days just to be on the same side.

Usually MVNO got a period u cannot do porting out, for GOMO and Simba, it is 5 days before end of billing cycle. If you have entered the mentioned period, u can stay on until next billing cycle OR wait until they deduct ur credit card and port out. Not sure about vivifi’s period. Pls do a check. But for $7, aiyah close one eye lah. U have utilized half of it liao as today being August 15th, $3.5 liao

Their email replies are on prioritisation I guess, but you can try visiting their service centre for speedier response on port-in.
