Dont think you get the full data allowance while roaming, i think its around 10gb or something like that.

With eir mobile connect 30 you do get the full allowance of 30GB.

Why do they needlessly make it so complex

Do I have to request the callback on OBS site or can I proactively conact Eir or OBS to ensure I don't miss the deadline?

Call 1800 303 719 and quote the one big switch offer.

Don't bother with the callback.
I'm still waiting having requested a callback 4 weeks ago!

I hate change! With VF so long, i just like when things work, anyway i was worried about heading to Eir based on people’s feedback here, so rang VF on Friday, asked they make me an offer or id have to go to eir, tbf to them they did, not as good as eir but i was happy.
Went from €55 a mth at 5gb data to 25 a month with 20gb data, and moves to 35 after 6 mths, great savings for me, more data and keep phone upgrade

This means i stay (with them 15 plus years) and they rewarded loyalty

Managed to sign-up to this 14.99 deal last month for 12 months (I'm an eir customer, was paying 30 for the same deal previously).

Bill came in today: 14.99 + once-off service charge of 14.xx

Only found out it was a 'once off' after I contacted web-chat (which in fairness I was through to in 1 min)

Bit odd, but i'll let this one slide, so long as the following bills stay at 14.99

I was also charged the 14.99 extra. My first bill was 26.04€ for 3 weeks. Contacted customer care and got a different response that we pay a month in advance. Does this mean them that we have to give notice 30 days before the year is up and we'll get the last month for free? Don't think I've come across this before with phone companies.

Hearing that I think VF Ireland have finally woken up - we were with them from 1991(!) to 2017(!!) and left after they became unmanerly (to put it mildly) - never got a decent offer from them - but herself was paranoid - went from them to 48 months and then to an earlier eir offer then the One Big Switch one (which I suspect has been screwed up by Eir... another story)

Not being a dick but Vodafone just gave you the offer that is available to the general public. It's a grand offer but they didn't do you any huge favour and they definitely didn't reward you.

Fair point, not sure that offer is available to existing customers, guy said it wasnt but would offer it to me, so thats why i felt i had been rewarded,
You are probably right, but im certainly happier than before i rang them and i stay with VF as i never wanted to leave.
Not got any issues with Eir myself but the comments on here concern me and so delighted to stay with what i know, never had 1 days problem with VF

Ive been with VF the last 5 years and my contract is ending in two weeks,i decided to cancel and go with this offer because im getting twice the data for half the price,VF rang me and tried to persuade me to stay with another offer but i just said if you can match the Eir offer ill stay,they obviously couldn't so im switching,and like you i never had any problems with VF but it is too expensive for what you are getting.

I agree, what you did is what most would do!
I guess i thought the saving is good enough for me, and i did say i hate change! So the hassle of moving, porting phones and the customer service, said id pay higher premium for all that avoidance

I know lots will think im mad
But im in better position now than i was in terms of monthly bills and as i said, original point remains - i used Eir offer to get improved deal.

How long is the port taking for just people?

I've tried porting my number at around 2 but the phone is only using the new eir number, not my own old number.

I done mine over the phone and it ported about 2 minutes after the call finished.

The OBS offer is over. The offers on Eirs website now is the same but it's only for 6 months, then full price thereafter.

Offer might suit some but it didn’t suit me, coverage weak in galway city west, 45 seconds to connect calls, jumping from 4g to h,h to g , very weak network, especially in north county galway, signed up for 19,99 lasted two weeks, calls going straight to mailbox, had enough, got billed 34.99 when I went back to Vodafone , took 3 day to port from Vodafone, 3 days to port back! Wouldn’t recommend.eir extra were nice ,4g speed of max 5.gb , only moved to get better deal from Vodafone, got s10+ deal from CPW , who were very good to deal with, as I said would suit some but not a self employed person like myself .

Go to settings and then mobile data, ensure its enabled along with data roaming.

In settings- mobile network - Access point names and check you have one in there for eir/meteor.

i have 2 under access point names ...meteor data and meteor MMS...is that correct?
