Eight Telecom discussion thread

few k is not a big sum of money..

 

[cloudystar]

And it's credits, not cash.

Future spending, not immediate outlay.

Some people might forfeit or port out of eight before they even use up their credits.

Won't be surprising looking at the serial porters in this forum.

Few k is company spending.

Big sump is how many people being topped up 56 and 84? Be it cash or credits in the wallets. It is counted as money.

When department head do report. Credit in wallets no need to report?

Touch wood if eight closed shop. Will report cash only or credits in wallet as all debt?

Correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks.

when qoo10 closed down, no need to report or account for anything
customer balance just vapourised and nobody talks about it

if you bother reading what you quoted in the edmw thread, 20 countries apac is not listed for fortune eight plan (11.80)

Only valid for 14.80 and 18 plan

No sms. I can't even add gb if I wanted to.

I have to fly back to even take a screenshot of the app.

Well if you support such practices you do you

Sorry for my poor knowledge.
Is qoo under the Sg listed company?
The authority can raise any questions when our beloved citizens kb money gone?

Thanks.

Eight doesn't support outgoing international SMS. Actually you could use any WiFi network to get into the Eight app, the China intranet doesn't block eight last I recall.

qoo10 wasn't a listed company but it was headquartered in Singapore
there is very little news locally after it closed down abruptly

but korean authorities are pursuing criminal investigations against the executives

Noted. Thanks for sharing.

Do you really think the team can handle that kind of big sump of money?

In a company few k spending may need the higher management to approve.

Hopefully escalate is not the word to be use by the team later.

Correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks.

It's not fruitful for us end users to delve into Eights's internal processes. So long we get the promotion we signed up for without issue, it does not really matter how eight gets it done on the backend.

Hopefully history won't repeat.

Does not support international sms is actually a good thing. For iPhone to activate iMessage or FaceTime will need to sms to a uk no and it costs international sms price to send. But eight has no issue with the activation and it is completely free no matter how many times u activate.

U need to receive otp to log in

You can setup passkey authentication for your eight account, then can use fingerprint (for android)/Face ID (for iOS) to login.

Incoming SMS always free. Even when your roaming data balance is exhausted.

Not the case for me across 2 numbers specifically in cn

 

[hereiam7788]

Horrible . Apac cannot use in china
No sms

this plan does not have 20 countries APAC roaming data that covers dragonland what.. it is expected.

You may try some troubleshooting like connecting to a different network or restarting your phone. I had no issues with SMS on eight when I was in China.

Hi how come Sunday tnc is different from other days?
