    No big deal, should be done in a couple hours tops.

    Sorry if this is a stupid question but do you need to buy €10 top up at local shop and then pay another €10 membership - bit confused

    You can top up €10 and with them buy your membership that covers the calls and txt.

    If you want to buy extra add-ons like data you will need to top-up again.

    I just received my sim card after a week or so of a wait. Only issue now is what to spend 500 Vodafone Cherry points on before I move. Can I decide whether to use the new sim as a new number or port my number onto it ? I didn't tell them my old number when I signed up on the interweb

    Guys were can I buy credit? Can I get it in a normal corner shop like I'd get vodafone, 02 etc or is it only specific outlets?

    You can buy online on their website, any shops that have the Payzone machines or the Omnivend machines. More info on their website

    Thanks, are those machines the credit ones you see around the place where you insert your cash?

    I dont have a debit or a credit card you see, or a bank account in fact so I want to make sure I can actually top up before switching lol

    a payzone outlet simply means you go in and ask for a "€10 topup for 48" and pay them cash.

    I suggest using them for a little while before porting and see how it goes for you.

    Did you try to activate? do you have credit? as part of the activation it sends a couple of txt to a UK number.

    More info here

    Let us know how you get on.

    There a charge for 25c for FaceTime to activate. And I would like to topup by only €10.

    When you top up by 10euro, it then says your credit is 11euro... So use your 10euro for membership for your free calls and texts and the extra 1euro to pay for your FaceTime... ;)

    Beautiful great stuff from them.

    Thanks a lot. Straight to the point.

    Cheers

    So I ported over from Vodafone this evening and that process was fine

    Good points,

    1. I can receive texts to my ported number.

    Problems.

    1. I can't receive calls, my number is constantly engaged.
    2. The membership payment won't accept my Laser details, I keep getting Error try again please.
    3. I'm Constantly roaming, even if they are 'piggybacking' from o2 i shouldnt be roaming.

    Anyone else like this?

    When my credit is due, do have to have it topped up that day or the day before etc and if i dont top up on time do i loose offer ?????


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,641 ✭✭✭Luap


    Went into a Payzone shop to get the €10 euro top up, which I thought would do me 4 the texts and calls, but its saying I still have to pay a membership fee. :mad: Am I asking for the wrong thing in the shop or what.:confused:

    Edit: Just had to go on to the website and buy the membership with your credit balance. :P

    No don't think so, just top up whenever you feel and you'll get the service for a month. Hopefully. :P

    No, you dont lose the offer.. If you dont top up its just like having no credit, you will still recieve calls and texts.. When you do top up your offer starts again from that day for a month... :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,187 ✭✭✭psychward


    No, you dont lose the offer.. If you dont top up its just like having no credit, you will still recieve calls and texts..

    but no texts if you are roaming abroad with an empty wallet ?

    For the sim registration stage. Did those outside the 18-22 bracket put in their real dob..?

    If they are an idiot then they did.

    You need to have complete DOB field with a date inside the 18-22 bracket to use the service.

    Really? Must be a bug in the way Tesco bill.


  • Registered Users Posts: 629 ✭✭✭thisisadamh


    When they ask for mobile number when getting a free sim is that a number they want to port or just a number in general for contact if there is a problem with the order. I dont want to port my current number.
