    Just gone down up in Cavan too in the past half hour, started getting "no access" up on my phone and a strange symbol in the top! Now i'm getting "inactive sim card" , do a network search and can't find anything.

    Just looked at my phone - it is indeed down! No signal, no 'Meteor', no nothing! Oh no!

    Dublin 9.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,872 ✭✭✭segadreamcast


    And as soon as I post it - it returns! However, I still cannot text, make phonecalls or check credit...

    now that they have gone nationwide with their coverage.Do they provide a good service?Or is it the only good thing about them is that they are cheap?

    No problems for me in Cork anyway.

    I don't mind it going down every now and then, because the prices are so good.

    I seem to get coverage everywhere (even in the Boole Basement in UCC :eek: ).

    I hardly ever use my phone anyway, so they're the best network for me.

    They only bad thing I can say about them is their crazy roaming rules. I've switched to an O2 sim the last few times I was abroad.

    Dublin 5 here
    nothing for over an hour...

    Working fine here in Arklow-all evening


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,951 ✭✭✭L5


    down here (DCU) all evening.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Meteor's been dead here in Listowel since just before 9:00pm. Doesn't seem to be working in Shannon, Co. Clare either as a I used an O2 phone to text a friend there who's on Meteor and I never got a delivery report.

    I'm starting to lose my patience with them.....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,689 ✭✭✭orangerooster


    Was in Carlow all day with three other people using meteor phones-all fine.Got home this evening and the other three peoples meteor phones are down and their just a town away in Laois-sent them texts and no reports and rang them to just got the number innactive beep.Very annoying.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    The signal was restored from 1:08am - 1:12am but only on O2. There was no GPRS either. I switched over hoping for cheaper calls but I never expected a network crash. I haven't been able to receive calls for the last two days either, the caller just gets a network busy error.

    I'm highly considering going back to O2. :mad:

    Got coverage at 1:22am last night then lost it again just before 9am this morning and its gone since, I was talking to a few people today and i've not received a call since last monday, all they get is a beep when they try to ring me.

    I thought no one loved me anymore!

    Gonna have strong words with their customer care, although i'm still willing to put up with a *dodgy service because their not riding me up the arse on the payment side of things.

    * Don't take it this loosely tho!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,785 ✭✭✭Farls


    Ok its now nearly 9pm and i haven't had coverage all day, is meteor down countrywide? anyone what is going on?

  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    I got my coverage back at around 2am, did you try doing a network search or turning your phone off and back on?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,689 ✭✭✭orangerooster


    I've had signal since seven o clock this morning.That was incredibly annoying though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,951 ✭✭✭L5


    Ive had poor coverage at times today, but its been back up for me since this morning. Reset your phone like someone suggested


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,264 ✭✭✭RicardoSmith


    I've had patchy coverage since I switched to them about 3 months ago. I haven't really found them any cheaper either. Probably because I make most of my calls at peak. I think I'll be switching back to Vodafone eventually. The outage the other night was a real pain.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,785 ✭✭✭Farls


    Done a few resets on the phone still had no coverage until around 2am last night, was annoying alright...

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,264 ✭✭✭RicardoSmith

    Its well and good if this was happening once a year and they were not compensating customers but its happening every month for the past year at this stage and they still do not compensate.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,264 ✭✭✭RicardoSmith

    For me its happened a couple of times when I needed a phone. So had to spend 2-4 euro on payphones each time. I'll be changing back when I get an opportunity.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,334 ✭✭✭OfflerCrocGod


    No problem with me and I also get my free money and texts no prob. Meteor just love me :D, or maybe I never use my mobile :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,441 ✭✭✭✭jesus_thats_gre
