Okay. It's time to jump again! 😬 $8 per month! Very cheap! 🤭

Just signed up Eight Mobile to try StarHub quality, porting from Zymie! 😬

I opted for mail delivery! I'm not in a hurry! :giggle:

Oh no. I knew it! Harry will be here one day, didn't expect to be so fast. Thanks for releasing zym bandwidth to me.

I tried eight starhub, few months ago for main line, wasn't impressed about it.

Wasn't impressed about it's network though. I'm still using eight for my work line $0 plan.

My main line I port out of eight. I get no network and emergency calls frequently, even in open air, I don't experience this in Simba. Upload speed for eight is damn slow, upload getgo inspection photos takes a long time, I have to hotspot zym to upload. Irritating

my port in completed. can receive SMS as well. all seems good.
2 sept 7pm - get new card from ubi and request port in my singtel share line immediately. Was told 3-7 days to port in.
3 sept - nothing happen
4 sept 7am - morning wake up already ported successfully.
Edit to add timeline, for benefit of others.

usually porting will take place around 10-11pm onwards. since you took sim card at 7pm, I reckon is too near to porting time. therefore it can only port next day around 10pm onwards.

most probably thats the case. also, even I collected it 7pm, I put in the simcard later that night only after I reach home.

4th day of porting over from Zym to eight

Zym is far more responsive

Eight i feel is just slightly better than M1 . Network feels laggy at times . Gaming also not seamless. Keep having occasional network signal.

Paid $8 for eight so my 2nd month is free. Haven't tried the 8gb roaming .
