    Vodafone have a new plan for €30/month called "Extra Unlimited". It is advertised as unlimited 4G+ data but further down says maximum speeds 10 Mbps. Does anyone know if they stick to the cap on it?

    4G+ is pointless if the cap is 10Mbps. IMO, it's false advertising. It's the same plan as X with anytime calls instead of weekend only.

    They certainly do atm

    So then is the only way to get unlimited speeds to pay €35/month then €45/month on a 12 month contract?

    tried to sign up for eir sim only complete, failed credit check. no reason why, email from eor advised to send a letter to them to find out why, upon searching boards it seems to happen quite a bit...

    yes but they advertise:
    Whether you binge on endless series on Netflix, stream music for hours, game or watch YouTube all night, with No Limits Data from eir SIM only there really are no limits! Plus enjoy unlimited calls & texts and FREE eir sport. All on a 30-day contract.
    And 120gb will not be enough for endles netflix and youtube.



    And eir prepaid 20e topup is also No Limits Data, but there isn't this advertise: endless series on Netflix, stream music for hours, game or watch YouTube all night.

    Well after 120Gb, speeds are just reduced so technically there’s no limit. However, the reduced speeds are so slow that you can’t use it for anything

    Others have reported that Gomo speed over the limit is 5Mbps, eir is possibly the same, it used to be below 1Mbps but was increased to 5 sometime last year.

    I had Gomo a few months ago and I’m pretty sure it went down to like 0.2Mbps, might be wrong though

    I'm still astonished they are allowed advertise "unlimited" when it's only unlimited up to "X" and then you are in the lap of the gods.

    Vodafone are now launching their own budget network, Clear Mobile - €12.99 / month for unlimited calls, texts and data. BUT speeds are restricted to 5Mb/s - https://www.clearmobile.ie/

    Interesting! What is the advantage of them launching these separate budget networks and brands instead of just introducing a new plan.

    5Mbps is a joke though. Even their 10Mbps is a joke! X should be 20Mbps and this one should be 10.

    You could also think about Voxi they have a endlessplan for 30 pound which is not capped at 10mbits.

    However 10mbits is still enough for streaming films

    In Germany or Denmark you will have only capped 200 GB plans in France as well. So we really can't complain

    You cry about 10 mbits unlimited speed in Ireland and the eu?

    Other operators could dream about this.

    Look what people in Belgium or Netherlands pay for their capped data! Or the Germans they pay 100 Euro for unlimited!

    Agree 5/10 download speeds in this day and age is crappy

    But then they coudn't offer 10 mbits speed abroad I think. This is the only plan which offers true unlimited data outside of Ireland

    It doesn’t matter what other countries offer - Vodafone’s new deal isn’t great value for Ireland
