    I am going on holidays to Spain this week, my top up will be done tomorrow meaning that I will have 6.3GB to use,, do I need to do anything to activate it or is it just a matter to loging to a network and using internet as usual? how can I track how much data is left while on holidays?

    You don't need to do anything. You can track here

    It won't affect your domestic data allowance and remember while roaming you can call/text/receive any mobile or landline in the EU as part of your mobile bundle.

    Just select a network. Text "Balance Data" to 50104. That's how you check data balance here not sure if it will work while roaming. Unlikely you would use that amount of data roaming.

    When roaming you just text "Balance Roam" to 50104 and they will text you back with your remaining data allowance.

    I ordered the sim in july. Went to activate it first week in august and was told deal expired end of july. Argued Id ordered in july but was told nothing they could do. Got on to manager. Nothing could be done. Hung up. Rang back up, got someone else and they said it was expired but theyll put me on it anyway.
    Certainly worth a shot but from that exchange it may be "officially" over.

    I was told same so just texted 20unlimited and got the offer, no need for human intervention.

    Did it work for you?


  • Registered Users Posts: 245 ✭✭doniem


    I'm going to grab a meteor simply over the weekend and try it out, I'll let you know how it goes


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,417 ✭✭✭✭TheDriver


    worked no problem


  • Registered Users Posts: 746 ✭✭✭Thegalwayman


    Ive ordered a SIM and going to try the text and see if it works for me. Free anyway


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,736 ✭✭✭✭_Kaiser_


    So... (I've never had a prepay SIM so bear with me)

    - get new Meteor prepay SIM
    - load with credit?
    - Text 20unlimited to 50104
    - Get confirmation
    - Port new number onto SIM later

    Do you need to add the offer again at that stage?


  • Registered Users Posts: 746 ✭✭✭Thegalwayman


    I think its:

    - get new Meteor prepay SIM
    - Text 20unlimited to 50104
    - load with credit
    - Get confirmation
    - Port new number onto SIM later

    This if I remember correctly

    - get new Meteor prepay SIM
    - Text 20unlimited to 50104
    - await confirmation of offer
    - load with credit
    - Get confirmation
    - Port new number onto SIM later

    Cheers guys. I'll pick up a SIM tomorrow so and let ye know how it goes

    Just tried it now...

    "Thanks for choosing Simply Unlimited Any Network Mins + Texts and 15GB Data 20e"

    Result :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 454 ✭✭phester28


    confirmed still works


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,417 ✭✭✭✭TheDriver


    I think it's best to NOT ask over in meteor forum about this.
    On a side point, I topped up before I ported and for the first month it will say you must top up to get offer even though you topped up and active. You also won't get a text to remind u to top up until month 2


  • Registered Users Posts: 454 ✭✭phester28


    Strange the portal says i must use all my minutes and data by Sept 7th and I just activated and topped up today.

    Text "offer" to 50104, you should get a reply saying how many days are left.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,417 ✭✭✭✭TheDriver


    Unless u have my issue. Chat will usually sort u out


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,417 ✭✭✭✭TheDriver


    You can also text balance data or balance roam to that number.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,662 ✭✭✭torrevieja
