Actually some really dont bother reading (the same question was just asked the post before theirs) and they basically keep asking the same question over again and again, in every other thread summore (maybe to boost post count so that they can be a high level member?) Maybe can consider appealing to your management to implement a new title or sub-title called "Need to be spoonfed" or "Just to boost post count"? So that some kind forumers can keep entertaining these group of users whenever they are free.

oh yes, upon sign-up, they will collect a pro-rated amount until end of the month.

Zym is good and the 5G speed is fast, i remembered somebody posted a speedtest screenshot, the speed hit 1200mbps in one of the coffesshop. that screenshot left a deep impression.

what I like about zym is they have an app to manage the account.
I was contemplating whether to use zym as my back-up but due to my personal requirement of roaming calls and IDD, I decided to go for simba for flexibility.

Nowadays easy to have 2 sim cards since no contract. I use zym as my main line, simba as secondary. Wanted to co ntinue with eight when the trial is over but now am contemplating as so many complaints. Haha.

If you feel some members don't really bother reading, or you find them repeating the same questions over and over again, just ignore them and let them talk to themselves. Thanks!

I saw the telco list.
MyRepublic 4G is available in the list of donor telco, it should be selected instead of M1.
We cannot advice much as we are only users, just like your good self.

Why not head to Ubi service centre and rectify this. He will help you.

Yup, I've selected MyRepublic 4G and yet Eight Mobile suggested M1 to be selected instead lol.

If the specific MVNO is there for you to pick, then just use that.

When I ported over an M1 Maxx line, I looked for Maxx first.

Back when I moved out from MyRepublic to IIRC Simba, I'd to choose M1 because MR wasn't in the list, and it's successful at first go.

I see. I'll just wait for the porting request to be processed for now since Eight Mobile resubmitted the request under MyRepublic 4G.

MyRepublic CS told me they're not sure why Eight Mobile's telling me to pick M1 instead of MyRepublic 4G as the operator but since they received the porting request before, I'll just stick with MyRepublic 4G for now. If it fails, then maybe can try M1.

What a pain, so much conflicting info from both parties lol, guess I'll just wait and see for now. Thanks for the help!

  • I am an existing customer with eight’s old entitlements, how do I enjoy the new entitlements?
    If you are currently on the old entitlements i.e. $8 plan – 188GB, with the next month’s refresh it would show the new entitlements. Do not worry if you have bought our old plans in advance – Any new plan cycle will be refreshed with the new benefits!

as well as RedOne, CUniq, Vivifi, CMLink, Circle.life.

Zero1 seems to have 4 different day of the month to start a billing cycle, one of which is 1st of the month.

I think that is a more effective way of searching for answers.

one does not go to your colleagues at work and ask "how to do ah?"

at least one explores and researches until really hit wall, den you ask. when ask also must be articulated.
" i have research this over the weekend, and trial-and-error but it does not work. in your professional capacity and experience, (________________________________) ?"

Don't know if there's something wrong with our education system, that some people just want to be spoonfed and literally put in zero effort to find the answers themselves.

Imaging going to your BOSS and for every new task given, ask "how to do ah?" without trying to find out for yourself first. Your BOSS will be really pleased.

Eight spends a lot of effort keeping their FAQ up to date with every new promotion. Kudos to them. Please go and read the updated FAQ on their latest promotion:
