Eir GoMo - €9.99/month SIM only (unlimited calls, texts and 80GB data, 10Gb EU Roam

Somedaythefire

Still getting 0.10 download speeds. Absolutely atrocious.

Is their website down this morning? Can't get on at all

Ordered Friday, port was due Tuesday. SIM still hasn’t arrived, no assigned number in the account. Port must have gone through as my old VM sim isn’t working now. Chat timed out yesterday, can’t see the chat function on my account today. Forgot that I had two factor authentication set up for the majority of my banking etc apps, slowly starting to get frozen out of those. Nightmare.

My sim is out for delivery today too ordered last Wednesday. I will check tonight and post on speeds compared to current 3 speeds (in Galway city) on the thread later.

Same here, perhaps they are sending a big batch today.

There seems to be nothing under T&Cs particularly under “Leaving Us” ...hope they don’t lock you into a 5 year contract and then provide terrible network speed?

Can anyone point to where the T&Cs are available? I heard this service discussed yesterday and the €10 a month for life was emphasised.

But what does 'life' mean in this contract? They can hardly be asking people to commit to €120 annually for the rest of their days on this earth?

This was discussed in the context that by locking people in for a time period they could guarantee a revenue stream, so 'life' must mean something. We all know that 'unlimited data' does not mean unlimited data in the Mobile Phone World View but what does 'life' mean in GoMo Speak? Anyone?

There’s no contract. “For life” essentially means even if they change the price you’ll have a legacy 9.99 a month plan until you leave.

its 30 days notice to cancel.

You wouldnt be able to enter into a contract of unlimited duration for something like this. Even if you could, as soon as it got out there would be mayhem.

I’ve seen it before where “life” means the life of the plan etc., that was with a TomTom lifetime free updates. I’d be confident it doesn’t mean for as long as the customer lives. It’s probably tucked away somewhere in the t&cs.

OK, thanks - does anyone have a link to the T&Cs. We couldn't find them last night.

I'm surprised though if it turns out that it's €9.99 a month for as long the customer wants but they can cancel same with 30 days notice. Sure, there's no security in terms of revenue flow for the new provider in that. Where's the logic - how does this work for GoMo?

Edit - found it now https://gomo.ie/terms/

You [9:44:56 AM]
What is going on?
Rachel [9:45:38 AM]
it has definitely not been delivered your order is not complete
You [9:46:56 AM]
But why would she say it is? I ordered on the first day the offer came out. Everyone one I know who has signed up after me has got their SIM. Someone is telling me lies now
Rachel [9:48:10 AM]
i can not speak on behalf of another agent but from your account details it is showing today that your order is not complete which means that it has not been delivered. have you received a text from An Post?
You [9:48:48 AM]
No I haven't. It should have been here by now.
You [9:49:14 AM]
Other people I know didn't get emails or texts and still had theirs delivered
Rachel [9:50:32 AM]
we do have to advise up to 10 working days due to the high volume of orders
You [9:51:34 AM]
Sorry but when I signed up it was 2 days , then when chatting to you on Monday you said 5 days and now 10 days. Has my SIM been dispatched or Not?
Rachel [9:53:30 AM]
apologies for the inconvenience, but there is a backlog in the orders. you sim will be with you within 10 days from date of ordering
You [9:53:50 AM]
Has it been dispatched or Not?
You [9:55:08 AM]

Why are you lieing to me Rachel
Rachel [9:58:40 AM]

You [9:59:36 AM]
Well you could tell me Monday that it was dispatched on Monday and I would have it yesterday. Then on chat yesterday they tell me it is delivered.
Rachel [10:00:38 AM]
on Monday the delivery time was 5 working days not 10 but due to high volumes of orders the delivery is recommended for 10 days
You [10:01:02 AM]
But you told me I would have it yesterday?



Basically cancelled after that

Feel bad for "Rachel" having to deal with people like this all day every day.

Elsewhere.. GoMo contacted me to say the voicemail issue would be resolved this evening.. will wait and see.

rustledjimmies

Or possibly it's 4G for life? Eventually once 5G, etc. start rolling out and new price plans too then, over time, this deal will look less attractive.

Top tip: Don't treat customer service representatives like sh*t and you'll have a better chance of getting things sorted...


I contacted them about the voicemail issue to see was there an update and they're still saying 24 hours

Common, they have to cope with so many orders, have patience, its a great deal worth waiting for.

Disaster here. Trying to port my eir bill simonly plan and the port has failed (received failure message from GoMo). However looking at my eir account it looks like port has started as my dashboards with balances etc have disappeared from account page. Now to trying to deal with two useless support teams to resolve.

Oh no! We tried to move your number to our network but there is already a move in progress for this number. See our FAQs at gomo.ie/joining-getting-started-with-gomo/#move-number on what to do next and how to complete your move. That's it!

I have tried 3 times. Giving it one more go for this evening.

In exactly the same boat. My second SIM finally arrived today after being ordered on the 15, but can't port the first one (from an Eir prepay, formerly Meteor). Have tried a dozen times - was originally set to port this Friday coming (as is the second one).

Online chat said: "The issue is that there's still a port in progress on your account. That should go clear within 48 hours." They say it is all automated at their end and they can't do anything.

Getting this too, since friday morning. Customer service havnt a notion whats going on or how to fix it, getting very frustrated - on the verge of cancelling

I got that text yesterday too,i scheduled to port yesterday at 12:20 and still hasnt moved.

I was just onto customer care and they said the process has started and porting takes 24-48hrs,if its not ported by tomorrow ill just cancel.

Both!
On my iPhone, under iMessage settings and Phone settings, it has the 085 number
The website has the same 085 number but in the "move my number" section it says "your port is in progress" so maybe it'll sort itself out eventually? I've ported networks before though and its always been an immediate thing.

OK, so all is good, I'm fully ported over now. It took about 2 hours, during which time my phone was on the 085 xxxx number. I had to re-activate iMessage etc again too, but it all seems spot on now.

Yeah it's annoying to be given different information but there has to be understanding from customers that this was only launched last week, there are going to be issues in the short term with such huge demand, it you can't handle teething problems which there was always going to be don't sign up until things settle

I've requested a password reset and get no email, I've checked spam and nothing there.

I've requested to be text the 6 digit code too and I got nothing.

Had the same issue on signup day. After a few hours I tried clicking the verify email link from an earlier email AGAIN and that eventually let me in.

I'd say you're on your own with those speeds.

Otherwise this thread would be full of the same complaints.
