Has anyone received the promo offer from Eight WhatsApp?

"Top-up $8 in main wallet and we will credit $8 credits to you within 7 days! Top up via MyAccount or at your nearest retailer. Valid till 30th Sept."
yes, I top up $8 via a store in shoppee, you can stack the coins to bring down the cost.

the $8 top up came in within minutes, then following by the free $8 credit in the next hour or so.

Dun fight over which operator is the best. :D I travel a lot, just subscribed to Eight to try.

I notice Eight delivery is very slow.... my previous with other operator, rcv the sim card within 3 days but this Eight sim card, 1 week still no sign.
No one should be fighting here.

This is an 8 discussion thread. Want to fight go find the more appropriate one.

If you'd read the earlier discussions here, you'd know why your experience hardly raising any eyebrows.

Ive just bought the main wallet $8 from DV. got the 200 coin rebate. thanks to the replies here on HWZ for this pro tip :flash: :s12:
Ahhh nice! Always nice to find someone that bothers to read through 👍🏼

Since it’s your first time with DV, just note that the top up amount normally will be reflected between 5-120mins after you top up… based on own personal experience.

Longest ever waited was 2 hrs before they send me a pic of the top up amount.

As for the bonus $8, within 7 days will receive. If fast, within a few hours can see it reflected in your account

collected sim on fri 6pm and inserted sim
successfully ported in from giga at 10.30pm on the same day.

paid using cc when signing up and got a $8 credit. awesome.

gonna top up main balance from shopee cos shopee gave me some no min spend voucher.
How is your experience compared to giga? My main line under giga, not sure want to port to eight or not.
I just feel eight slightly unresponsive compare to giga, not sure if is because of the phone different.

So far so good for me. I had the trial SIM before I ported over. To me it's more of less the same but I guess it depends on what you need/want. I ported over mainly because of the roaming data. The price is a bonus and being able to get cheaper credits via shopee is another bonus
