Hi All, I recently port over to Eight and this is the first time I have been promoted for a software upgrade, STARHUB.SG.12.0.0.1(LT). Has anyone else received the same for their Android devices?

You need to tell us exactly which phone model you have.

Don't update yet. Sounds like malware? Did you install the 8 app? Email them or ask them via their FB page?

No, you can't top up your account and make payments for their numbers. Need to log in to their individual My Account to recharge. One account for one number. You may want to set up a recurring payment for their numbers so you don't have to keep recharging/top-up. 🙂

IMHO.
Eh... a noob question, Eight overseas can receive and make calls back to SG ?

Does roaming covers calls and SMS?

Our plans do include 288mins roaming calls back to Singapore and at the destination you roam at! Learn more here, simply refer to the column “Network Operator (VOLTE Calls)”. E.g. Looking at Malaysia, MAXIS is available under VOLTE Calls and you would be able to call home under this operator.

I haven't been able to receive google verification code sms, anyone else has the same problem?
I checked my eight account settings and it isn't blocking overseas SMS.
Also checked my phone settings and it isn't blocking either.
