some comment simba better than eight leh, i don't know cos i don't use simba, so cannot comment :p
eight was good in the beginning, speed wise still acceptable, now seems getting worst and slow...
perhaps network congested. but so far still good for me
True incident to report, happaned on Saturday last weekend. Just a few days ago.
brought my family to a korean bbq establishment in tanjong pagar.
used eight to scan the QR code menu. no response. Kept trying for 5mins.

Wife and kid got impatient liao.

switched data to Simba, voila, can order under Simba line.

nowadays eight very congested, thus slow, especially after Comex.

yes, nowadays eight speed is very bad.. i remember July time, it was pretty good, when i tested both starhub and eight speed, not too far from each other.

Glad that you have finally tasted eight weaknesses.

When I was on eight, i have use my zym to hotspot just to upload photos to getgo.

Also anywhere can suddenly emergency calls only- no network.

Each has its good. Simba, eight and so on.

yap i mentioned before the topp up is making tool to make ppl to stay. else they will be wasting the credits
yes, it is true, but dont hedge too long.. for me 4-5mths are good enough
cos these are the times i travel often and can be away for sometimes
i dont really need local data and speed, afterall i can be away for a period
so data roaming and idd calls more important to me
