    statement or opinion?

    the lady i was talking to from emobile said the 139 offer was an error and anyone who got it for 139 would be billed an extra 100, i.e. instead of 35 it would be 135.

    Well I got confirmation that this is untrue. I'll let you know when my first bill arrives...

    Just ring with your Eircom account & explain you don't have a voucher but would like to sign up.:)

    Keep doing that until you get an agent that will do it for you...worked for me twice!!;)

    Sorry if this has been asked already... (search feature is awful on this site, so cant search this thread)

    Does the half price deal only apply to a 18 month contract or can you pay a bit extra monthly and get it on a 12 month contract?

    My ideal scenario:

    I would be getting the Samsung Galaxy S 3 on a 12 month contract for €139 @ around €35 per month...

    That would be everyone's ideal scenario; an 18 month deal for 12 months:rolleyes:
    Very first post , it says it twice - 18 month contract.

    And it's going to be €239 for the phone because it's such a great deal already

    It should say on the T&C's that two people can sign up using it... Go the the store with ur wife, you will both need photo ID and proof of address etc. You shouldn't have any probs signing up... I'm sending my wife into the store this week to sign herself up.. Too good a deal to miss.

    You can use it on your laptop too. Probably more stable than tethering.

    Just did 4 tests with the speedtest.net Android app.

    Results:
    1. 8.08 down, 2.83 up, 1230ms ping
    2. 4.74 down, 2.84 up, 1255ms ping
    3. 5.36 down, 2.05 up, 1245ms ping
    4. 4.32 down, 2.85 up, 112ms ping

    All results in Mb/s obviously.

    Pretty decent speed, although ping is atrocious. I checked the comreg website and sure enough there are several masts in Midleton close to where I live. It's faster than my internet was with o2.

    Left a bit confused after a call to emobile, was told that the offer was only available over the phone as opposed to in-store. Anyone else told that?

    They aren't very well informed, try someone else in store or call over the phone.

    I was speaking to a chap in the Blanchardstown outlet and he said it would be no problem to avail of the deal in-store, but he did mention that the handsets would be 50-100 euro dearer. If I remember correctly he was looking for 240/250 for the HTC One X with this deal.

    Is anyone else getting the run around from Emobile? I switched over from Eircom recently and going on the info in post 1 tried to get a HTC One S...they are now looking for €89 for it...am awaiting an answer back from them but I keep on getting different info. I was told the €89 is now only if you take out the full Unlimited and not the half price unlimited..wtf?

    EDIT: Should have said it was free in post 1, now they are looking for €89 when I try to sign up

    I rang emobile and quoted my eircom account number as a voucher code but they said it was not a valid account number (it does not work off the url either) :( Any tips?

    Go into one of the stores... I spent two weeks trying to do it via the website and phone. Went into the store and was signed up within 10 mins. I'd to pay a bit extra for the phone but was well worth it...

    That doesn't make sense from them. I signed up for the same and did get the half-price deal. The 89 was debited from my account, but I still am having problems porting over. It's been nearly a week now.

    Wow that's weird, heard people say there was only a tenner in the difference if you went to a store.
