If no $8, then there are so many others to choose from. 🤣
Not used as main line should be ok.

Did you have signal in the same lift/location with other Telco before? Actually eight is just less than $6 monthly with occasional 1+1 top up promo. Maybe you can try Zym see if its better for you. I might try Zym for 1-2 months once my credit finish (still on trial lol) since everyone say very good. However if it's the same as Vivifi/GOMO I'll likely port back to eight eventually.

I'm truly amazed with people who replaced their main lines with a new provider without proper testing first. What's more from an MNO to MVNO.

Anyway, only need to stay for 30 days then port out. Our little red dot has so many surviving providers for a reason.

i have been using SH for a long long time..... their coverage was very bad during the early days... but has definitely improve... I ported over to Simba last month...... but the coverage in my work area is very bad...
guess all the saying abt Simba are true :
1) Can show 5G on the phone,... but the data speed is really very bad
2) very handy with the built in 7 GB oversea roam... thus far, tried Malaysia and thailand... will be trying out a few more countries till mid Jan
At home, I got spots where I’m at one bar (iPhone) and many areas of 2 bar :(

how to improve?

any idea what is the shop name? :)
Can't remember shop name. But based on Eight list, the exact address should be Blk 153 Bukit Batok St 11 #01-286, 650153. If google address, it is SKP shop may be SKP is the main tenant?
