Try logging in to Eight using your temporary number. It will show you the port in status and reason for the failure.
It say ID mismatch. I've been using my NRIC port in many operators, all no problem except eight. Hahah...lousy sia

Someone complained about this before. Apparently the donor telco only put in First name and Last name, didn't put in the full chinese or dialect name. That's why ID mismatch.

You need to get your donor telco to put in your full name according to your ID, then port in again.

This isn't Eight's fault.

Vivify has my full name based on NRIC. Not sure who is fault. NRIC is the basic operators used to input to system. Cannot be anyhow put.

Wah, just now go retailer do a port in. Scanned NRIC and getting the sim card. Go home put in the sim card and received sms say port in request failed from vivify to eight.. has been using the same NRIC for many port in no problem. Only eight has problem....hahaha..think most people experience this also.

IT system and process need to improve la....eight
No issue for my porting request from VIVIFI to Eight, all done smoothly.
