Just curious what's the reason to port from Zym? As several had feedback that they find Zym connection better than Eight. Contrary to my experience I had very bad connection with Vivifi/GOMO 5G.

Pick it up if you can. It is super fast.

3pm: Purchased online.

330pm: Picked up and activated over the counter and straight away can use eight.

All in less than 35 minutes.

10GB APAC Roaming
2GB Intl Roaming
288 Mins IDD Talktime

This 3 points attracted to port and give eight a try.
No harm trying, anyway not good than port to ZYM again afterwards :ROFLMAO:

Even without 5G NSA and just with 4G on eight!

I could get more than triple the speed than Simbarella 5G SA sia!

Somemore, running non 5G saves my phone battery life a lot!

What you say! :LOL: Don't waste my precious life with Simbarella no more! 😷
