You did not receive the sim card by mail or what ?
You sign up to port in sure will receive a temp number email confirmation ma.

last week port in but fail ? I dont get you

I signup to port in, they immediately send me an email for temp number.
Don't know what went wrong. I didn't get any emails after i selected the port in. I can only assume something went wrong during the process.

Thinking to port in.. kindly help with a few queries:

1. Port in to the $0 plan confirm can? Their FB got comments saying must choose the paid plans
2. Any difference to collect sim at their service centers vs roadshows?
3. Can their app or website do credit card recurring payment? or still via Shopee topup?
4. Anyone tried porting from giga? I still have 1 week before giga monthly charge, not sure in time or not
1. yes can port in to the free 88 days plan 1st.

A quick question to confirm, if my ID already took 2 free SIMs, I cannot port in my current non-eight number to eight $8 plan without cancelling one of the 2 free SIMs right?


Read HWZ Forum Rules on Xiaomi 13T Pro
Yes, need to cancel one or if you wish to retain your "eight" free SIM, to port out 1 of 2 and then port in the "Non-Eight" SIM into Eight.

By right, yes. And by right again, not immediately.

Email them loh.

The help section ask you to email them the details.

Maybe the renew cycle just right is 1 day before port in that is why fail.

Maybe suay

yup apready emailed them, they said 3 to 5 business day.

worse case, will have to go down to lucky plaza or ubi.

thanks bro
